Next, back here in the kitchen again for the second part of our series of how To Eat to gain more muscle.

We're gonna deal with lunch.

Now, I'm not forgetting the snacks that you're gonna have in the mid-morning and afternoon.

We're gonna deal with snacks later on in the series.

But for now, let's turn our attention to lunch and specifically what I like to eat and some other options that you guys can eat that are simple, a little bit creative and not gonna taste so bad.

Basically, I know it looks like we have a lot of stuff here on the counter and like I said, last time, if you buy that stuff in bulk, it becomes very, very easy to do the job of preparing your lunch.

It becomes very, very easy to make sure you always have this stuff on hand and ready to go.

So I want to start down this end over here.

One of my big staples and for me, my main thing that I like to eat is grilled chicken, some kind of a chicken sandwich.

Stay away from the deli meats, guys.

Those are they're a load of assaults.

You'll see they'll come in a, in a, in a big ball.

You know, when's the last time you saw an actual turkey that was in the shape of a ball?

You know, this stuff is actually processed and thrown, you know, thrown together.

Not good for you.

Stick to the real stuff.

Stick to the chicken breast.

I buy a big bag here.

£10 bag again from like Costco bjs.

One of the wholesale places you take out a lasagna pan, you know, big pan to hold these, take about eight or 10 or so, whatever you anticipate you're gonna use for your lunches and dinners because we'll talk about how we can use these same things for dinner later, you know, later on in the day.

But for your week, you shouldn't have to worry about coming home and cooking every single day.

Let's make enough that we can last us through the week.

So it'll be a lot more convenient.

You throw those in here.

One can of tomatoes, nice and simple guys.

All you need to know is how to open it with a can opener.

That's it.

Pour it in here a little onion, some garlic now, spices, there's some dried mushrooms.

Um Look, I'm not Betty Crocker guys.

So pasta Sprinkle, right.

I mean this one here sandwich Sprinkle.

They make these, these uh these spices grouped together just so that for the guys like us that don't know really what we're doing in the kitchen.

We could just put them in here.

We know we're getting a blend.

This has oregano in it.

It has uh uh basil, it has thyme, it has everything sort of in it in one shot.

Put that in here into the oven on 425 for just an hour.

That's it.

Let it stay uncovered.

This will be done.

Now, what we do is use it throughout the, use it throughout the day for lunch.

I'll take this, I'll put it on a, you know, whole wheat bread, maybe on a wrap, a little lettuce, tomato, uh, some salsa and that's it.

It's a great sandwich.

We can even toast the bread up, you know, to, to get a little texture change, but it really tastes good.

That's what I have all the time when I, you know, when I, you know, have the time to do that.

I love it.

I take it on the go, I can eat it in the car.

Some other options here.

Tuna.

I mean, we all know guys.

I used to, I kidding with my wife about this, but I used to eat this from the can in college.

It was sort of what I survived on, but we can make it taste better than that.

We can do a better job simply by having, you know, having some other things to mix it with.

If you're gonna go to the mayo route as if, you know, making a, uh, a tuna salad sandwich stick with the light mayo or the no fat mayo.

Um, it's just gonna save you a lot of calories.

A lot of unnecessary fat.

You can switch it up.

You can use some salmon instead of using the actual, you know, tuna.

Instead you can put it on to a sandwich again, you know, with the bread with some vinegar, some, some, uh, with some, uh, uh, lemon juice, some roasted red peppers, whatever you want, just to sort of increase the taste of this, make it taste a little bit better than just plain old tuna.

Like I did put it on a, you know, put it on a sandwich, you should be set to go.

You can even mix it with a little bit of salad.

So we sort of cleared out all this space here.

But one of the best things that I like now is sort of my little secret weapon when I am com, you know, completely behind schedule, uh, running late and I need to get something in real quick.

Nothing like the old go to cereal.

Um, you'll see in the meal plans.

Two of the ones that I recommend the most are both by cashew, one's heart to heart and one is the go lean.

Now, don't get confused with the Gleen Crunch a lot of sugar in that extra fat is not equivalent to the Gleen by itself.

What's great about this is there's actually 13 g of protein in this cereal and there's a lot of fiber too.

I challenge you to find other cereals that taste this good that have that kind of nutritional content.

And the heart to heart is not too far behind a bowl of cereal.

Some skimmed milk, a little extra protein with a, with a yogurt.

Your favorite kind of yogurt.

They're all pretty much the same, but a nonfat yogurt or a light yogurt really good.

And that's it out the door, three minutes out of the door.

And I feel, I feel like, you know, I've got, I've, I've definitely gotten a good meal.

And so again, we've got sort of my go to option.

We have some alternatives and we've got the one when you're on the run, there's always also fruit that you can grab at any point in time.

Uh, real quick and easy guys.

These are the meal plans that have unlocked for me.

The potential to build muscle and to burn fat pretty much, you know, uh, uh, much more, much easier than it would ever have been before I learned.

Sort of what, what my options were.

I wanna give these meal plans to you as well.
