Who doesn’t love tacos? They’re fun to eat, easy to make and never boring! Speaking of boring… I think I’ve gotta come clean. I’ve been eating relatively the same thing every morning for about a month now: two slices of whole grain toast - one with avocado, the other with smoked salmon and cream cheese - and a cup of scrambled egg whites. Luckily, it’s absolutely delicious, has the perfect balance of protein, carbohydrates & fats and never ceases to satisfy. However, this mor

Mmm... who doesn't love a banana split? While this isn't your traditional banana split (let's call them "banana boats" instead), this simple recipe is such a yummy midday or pre-workout snack to help really fuel your body right. Plus, the variety of toppings you could add are practically endless!! NOTE: I always love to wash this down with some cold, blended cashew milk & chocolate protein powder for the PERFECT balance of protein, carbs & fats. See details below! details: →

These mammoths are not your average little couscous grains. I don’t know about you, but I’m a huge fan of Mediterranean food. But, I’ll be honest - before this, I’d never had couscous of this size. If you’ve ever had traditional couscous before, it was most likely in the form of a much smaller, circular and fluffy grain with some raisins or other mediterranean flavours mixed into it. However, these guys are about the size of a pearl and are known as “Israeli couscous”. They’v

Mmm... this is the ULTIMATE summer dinner idea! It has the perfect balance of protein, complex carbs and healthy fats. Plus, it’s just super delicious! The best part? You don’t even need to cook the Turkey Burgers on a barbecue for them to taste like summertime. Just throw them on a grooved cast-iron skillet to get that same “barbecued” look, or cook them on a regular non-stick skillet. Nothing is off limits here! Enjoy with a nice, fresh homemade mojito, because it’s all abo

Mmm… the banana-nut combination will ALWAYS be one of my favourites. Whether it’s in muffins, cakes, cookies or pancakes, you can’t go wrong with this killer combo. These Banana Nut Protein Pancakes are a simple, easy and healthy alternative to my classic high-protein pancake recipe. There’s even less fuss (because you don’t even have to whip the egg whites) and - if you’re a big fan of bananas like me - it’s honestly even more delicious! TIP: Try prepping these pancakes in b

Happy #MealprepMonday! You guys voted to see a full description of my 4-day meal prep last week, so here it is! I've also written cooking instructions for each of them, including what seasonings/spices I used to flavour everything, too. This prep took me about 3 hours to wash, cut, prepare and cook everything, which is great to do on a Sunday afternoon before you start your week, or you can even squeeze it in on Monday night (like I do) after dinnertime.

This may look like just another breakfast post, but this gorgeous, high-protein oat bowl is actually my POST-WORKOUT meal. Yes, eating carbs after a workout is actually GOOD for you! Here's why... While you're out there smashing a killer leg workout, your muscles are using up all of your glycogen stores as its primary source of fuel. This results in your muscles being (partially) depleted of glycogen. (To simplify things a little... glycogen = glucose = sugar = carbs.) After
