Healthy and easy to prepare fitness dinners
Here we propose 2 recipes that could meet this demand after a hard workout:POKE BOWL, a post-workout dinner full of energy.
A Poké Bowl can be a great dinner loaded with nutrients (vitamins, minerals and antioxidants) due to the fruit and vegetables we add. This will be important to counteract the free radicals generated and caused by intense exercise. It provides the necessary amount of carbohydrates if we add options such as white rice, brown rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, quinoa, chickpeas, pasta, bulgur, couscous...
Any poke that has a good balance between proteins and carbohydrates will be a dinner that will give you energy
You also can't miss a source of quality protein such as tuna, salmon, egg, octopus, chicken, turkey, prawns, tofu or tempeh. As for fats, we can add them by seasoning this Poké with EVOO , coconut oil , incorporating seeds such as chia , flax or pumpkin , nuts , or adding fruits such as avocado and coconut .Salmon poke recipe with rice and strawberries
First, we boil the rice and when it is done we place it in a bowl. Next, we cut the salmon, strawberries and tomato. Next, we chop the onion very finely. We mix all the ingredients and add the virgin olive oil (EVOO), the soy sauce and a pinch of salt. Sesame is added on top as decoration. You can add a little cayenne if you wish. NOTE: The fish must have been frozen for at least 48 hours before eating raw. If you don't like raw salmon (in Sashimi form) you can add it made or also add smoked salmon.Oatmeal pizza, a healthy pizza with protein.
Pizzas are one of the dishes that everyone likes the most (I may be biased because I'm Italian). We can use any type of flour as a base such as oats, spelled, quinoa, chickpeas, rye or the most common wheat . The important thing is that it is not an ultra-refined flour and, if possible, made with sourdough for better assimilation and digestion of nutrients. We should also add any type of vegetable that we like to provide those vitamins and minerals, in addition to contributing beneficially to the impact of that dough flour on our body by providing fiber.
An oat-based pizza with the right protein ratio can be an ideal post-workout dinner.
Last but not least, incorporate a source rich in protein such as eggs, cold cuts such as turkey, cooked ham, serrano ham or jerky; cheese, chicken, beef, tuna, anchovy, salmon... In fact, the most common mistake I usually make when making or eating pizza is the lack of protein .Pesto oatmeal pizza recipe with burrata
- If the oats are not ground, they must be ground well until they form flour.
- In a bowl of the appropriate size for the ingredients, add the previously ground oats with the yeast. Add the warm water, oil and pinch of salt . Care must be taken that the salt does not come into direct contact with the yeast so that the result is better.
- Combine the ingredients until they form a uniform dough that can be molded.
- In a pizza pan, roll out the dough to a thickness of half a centimeter and bake it for five minutes so that it becomes firm.
- Remove the dough from the oven and cover it with the ingredients (tomato, mushrooms and burrata).
- Finally, bake at 180° for 15 minutes, until the dough is crispy and the cheese melts and grates a little.
- Serve hot, add the pesto sauce and fresh basil leaves on top, and enjoy this delight!
- Toast the garlic and pine nuts in the pan for a few minutes.
- Place the pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan cheese, fresh basil and EVOO in a glass, beat everything and add a pinch of salt to taste.
