The quicker to make the better. I rarely like to eat anything sweet, including fruits. I just don't have a sweet tooth. I'm having the most trouble finding variety for breakfast time. The main meat sources I use are Fish(any kind), chicken and turkey. I love all veggies. I will eat healthy for months and then, when it seems I'm tired of eating the same things over and over, I fall off the wagon. Please share any and all HEALTHY ideas and recipes. The more the better.


Answer
Oatmeal is excellent, and you can control sweetness... just pour a little milk over it if you want, no sugar or fruit necessary. You can season it with savory flavors too (hot pepper flakes & garlic-yum!!)

Green smoothies. Loads of veggies. Try using ginger root for flavor or a stevia leaf if you want a little sweet.

Humus... so easy to make (pop into a blender 1 drained can chic peas, tiny splash of olive oil if desired, 2 tsp tahini, half squeezed lemon juice, 1 clove of garlic, salt, curry/cumin/pepper and/or whatever seasonings or roasted veggies you like or even black beans, etc... blend till puree, add water to make it the perfect consistency) I love it in a sandwich w/ or w/out veggies, on a wrap, over raw veggies, on crackers... breakfast, lunch, dinner or snack.

Best thing is you can change the way you make it every week so you don't get bored (1 week roasted red pepper, 1 week garlic & black olive, 1 week eggplant, 1 week pickled ginger, etc)

What should I eat for breakfast, lunch, dinner?

Please help. And would much appreciate it if you guys wouldn't say ohh your perfect the say you are or your to young... Thanks


Answer
Here's what you need to eat. Please make a note of the pulses and vegetables which I've mentioned. Apart from those mentioned, it would be beneficial to purchase fruits and vegetables which are native to your region so that you can formulate your own recipes in the future.
You need to make sure you eat pulses at least three times a week and fruits and vegetables everyday.
Have a fruit for breakfast(apart from something else of course) and vegetables/pulses for lunch and dinner.
Make sure you include ALL varities of fruits, vegetables, pulses, grains, nuts, seeds and dry fruits in your grocery list.

Don't eat mock meat and soybean as mock meat contains sodium and soybean is bad for health.
Mock meat is also soy based so too much soy can be bad for health.
Actually even a little soy is bad for health.
What's wrong with soy?
Soy beans are naturally toxic to humans, but they're harmless when they go through a fermentation process, which is how we get tofu.
But soy is being used in more and more things these days.
Just look through your cabinet. You'll be surprised.
Anyway, most companies aren't putting their soy beans through this process because it takes too much time, and time = money.
Instead, they put it through a chemical process, but this rarely gets rid of the soy's toxicity completely.
Symptoms of a high soy diet are thyroid problems, breast cancer, and other complications.
People get these symptoms because the soy they eat isn't fermented.

Mock meat can never be part of a staple diet(food what you eat everyday) as it is highly processed.
You CAN have it ONCE IN A WAY.
Its a luxury and not a need.
Now looking at a staple diet, You'll need to consume naturally occurring FRUITS,VEGETABLES(cauliflower,carrot, potato, beetroot, broccoli, okra, eggplant, radish, turnip, cabbage, bitter gourd, spinach,capsicum(aka bell peppers)),PULSES(chickpeas,kidney beans,black eyed peas,green gram,black gram,lentils,lablab bean,moth bean,horse gram,cow pea,double beans),NUTS(cashew nuts,peanuts,walnuts,pistachios,raisins) and GRAINS.
Also, do have figs once in a while as it is good for blood purification.
Make something like rice and bread your staple diet.
You can have rice with vegetables or lentils/legumes for lunch and bread(I have Indian bread usually) with pulses for dinner.
You will get all vitamins and minerals from fruits,vegetables,pulses, legumes and nuts provided you consume them in variety so don't fall for the myth that says vegans/vegetarians need to take multivitamin supplements.
Vegans/vegetarians don't need to take supplements as they get all their nutrients from the above mentioned sources.
Supplements are supposed to be taken by people with deficiencies so do not take them UNLESS they have been prescribed to you by a doctor.
