Inside youre going to get more than 60 of my favourite recipes ranging from Breakfast to Dessert and everything in between. First off, I have a confession...I am a TERRIBLE cook. I always have been and probably always will be.

I always look to incorporate complex carbs as well as quality sources of protein in each meal that I have but that doesnt mean hours and hours in the kitchen at the supermarket!! What I have compiled in each of these recipes is as follows:

- What you will Need - This has all of your ingredients listed which is responsible for why these meals taste so good. This is also convenient when you are going to be doing your grocery shopping...you can just copy and paste into a word document and print.

- Cooking Instructions Pretty straight forward. Simply follow the instructions with the ingredients above to make your perfect recipe.

- Nutritional Information We already know the importance of knowing the exact amount of calories and macronutrients that are being put into our bodies. So, what I have done, is includ-ed all of the important information so you know exactly whats going into your body with each serving

Lastly, I am always looking to enjoy other easy to follow recipes that are superior in nutrition than other forms of the same meal. If you want to share your favourite recipes with me and others in the program please send them to [email protected] with the Title New Recipe.

Spinached Egg Whites

What You Need

6 Egg Whites10 oz spinach


This is very simple to prepare. Take 6 egg whites and 1 package of spinach (10 oz) and prepare as if you were making normal scrambled eggs. Add no cheese and have no toast. The spinach makes for a great addition because it is not only provides many miner-als and a large amount of vitamin C, but it contains nearly a 1:1 protein to carb ratio and the sodium from it adds a lot of taste to the scrambled eggs.

Grab a small non-stick frying pan and spray a small amount of olive oil cooking spray to coat the pan. In a small mixing bowl add 2 whole eggs and 4 egg whites. Whisk until the egg yolks and whites mix. Add 1/4 of onion, 1 glove of garlic and 1 whole red chilli - all finely chopped. Now add 50g of cottage cheese and a pinch of mixed herbs.

What You Need

1 lb of tuna steaks mixed green salad 6 asparagus spears, trimmed 2 hard boiled omega 3 eggs 1/3 cup of green olive slivers 2 tbsp of olive oil 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar juice from 1/2/ lemon Salt and pepper to taste


Preheat grill to 350 F. When it has reached the appropriate temperature, grill the tuna for 6 minutes, turning once. At the same time, grill the asparagus, watching them closely not to burn.

In a small pot boil enough water to just cover the eggs. Boil the eggs for approximately 7 minutes. Once finished, pull from the stove and run under some cold water to cool down. When cool to the touch, peel away shell. Let sit.

Serving Suggestions

On two separate plates, divide the mixed greens. Take one egg for each plate and crumble with your hands. Divide the olive and distribute onto each plate as well. Distribute even portions of both tuna, and asparagus, onto the plates. Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste. Serves 2

What You Need

4 lbs extra lean ground beef (96%) 4 cans kidney beans (15.5 oz per can), drained and rinsed 2 large onions, chopped 2 large tomatoes, chopped 1 lb carrots, peeled and sliced 4 bell peppers - 1 green, 1 red, 1 yellow, 1 orange, cut into 1/2-inch squares 6 cloves garlic, chopped Two 46-fl oz bottles V8 vegetable juice, spicy hot 1/2 cup cashew meal Spices: 4 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp cumin, 2 tsp paprika, 1 tsp celery seed, 1 tsp fresh ground pepper (for a quicker version, you can use 3 packages chili seasonings mix, but it wont quite be the same!)


In a large skillet, brown the ground beef, one pound at a time, over high heat together with the garlic and onions. If your skillet is large enough (i.e., a wok), you can brown the beef all at once to save time. On the last batch, add the spices after the beef is browned and continue frying for another couple of minutes. Add the browned beef to a very large pot with a lid, and then add the beans, tomatoes, carrots, peppers, and V8 juice. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to simmer. To make the cashew meal, process 1/2 cup cashews in a blender in short bursts, until a grainy meal is formed. Do not process for too long or you will have cashew butter. Stir-in the cashew meal, cover, and simmer for an additional 30 minutes. Serves an army!
