Week 3 of Simplified September is based on Shrimp! In this breakdown, we use shrimp with the same seasoning across all recipes (since we are trying to keep it SIMPLE and reduce the cooking frequency), but if you want to mix up the seasoning between these recipes or replace with a totally different combination of flavors, go for it!
Simplified September Week 2: Ground Beef
We hope you enjoyed last week’s example of how to use one cooked protein in 3 different recipes. This week we will shift to Ground Beef. You can do this with any ground meat you like - aim to have it 90% lean, otherwise you will need to make adjustments in your fat servings also.
•
Start by browning 2 to 3 pounds of ground meat.
•
Here are 3 simple ways to combine the ground meat into delicious, template compliant meals. As with any recipe, you can tweak the proportions of the ingredients to make it work for you. Use our handy recipe tracker to help you out with this!
Simplified September Week 1: Shredded Chicken
While there may still be a few weeks of summer left (in the Northern Hemisphere at least), September often signifies a new beginning - sort of a mini New Year. Kids are back to school and even if you don’t have kids that are in school, it still feels like the end of Summer and the start of a new season. We wanted to provide you with some easy ways to build template compliant recipes while keeping it simple.
Many of you in the SP community have asked us about the cookbook “Cook once, eat all week”. This is a great cookbook that you can use to minimize your time in the kitchen, while making healthy meals. You may need to tweak some recipes to make them template compliant. We wanted to do a spin on the concept of using one protein to make several meals. This week we are focusing on Shredded Chicken as a protein option. We will show you a few ways to combine this protein to keep things interesting for different meals during the week, while minimizing your time cooking/your food waste.
We know our amazing community is growing by the day and a lot of you aren't aware of the things we offer in the nutrition department. Our goal with this newsletter is to cover what we believe in when it comes to nutrition, what our amazing templates are all about, and how to approach making a change to your nutrition!
