Eat These Foods Everyday

On today’s episode of Live Lean TV, I’m sharing 6 foods you should be eating every day to stay lean 365 days a year.

Straight up.

The foods you eat every day are either taking you closer to or further away from your weight loss, muscle building, or overall health goals.

6 Foods You Should Be Eating Every Day

If you want to Live Lean 365 days a year like us, here are 6 foods you should be eating every day.

#1. Blueberries

Blueberries are loaded with cancer fighting antioxidants, they’re delicious, and they can actually reduce inflammation, muscle soreness, and help you recover faster after a tough workout.

Here’s How To Eat More Blueberries:

Add frozen blueberries to your smoothies for a delicious and healthy combo.

Here is one of my favorite break the fast smoothie recipes that contains blueberries: Superfood Maca Powder Smoothie Recipe To Break A Fast

You can also substitute blueberries with other healthy berries including:

Raspberries
Strawberries
Blackberries
Cherries

#2. Avocados

Quick High Protein Snack Idea: Avocado Egg Crackers

Even though avocados are loaded with fat, it’s the healthy kind of fat.

In fact, many scientists call it an “anti-obesity” food because it’s packed full of nutrients, antioxidants, and the healthy fat balances your hunger hormones and keeps you feeling full.

Here’s How To Eat More Avocados:

Add avocados to your eggs, salads, and as a homemade guacamole dip or spread.

Check out this video post where I show you how to make one of my favorite egg and avocado crackers snacks.

Want A Healthy Avocado Food Swap?

You can swap avocados with nuts and nut butters, including:

Macadamias
Walnuts
Almonds

#3. Spinach

Spinach is packed full of the mineral magnesium, which a lot of us tend to be deficient in.

It’s also high in B vitamins, and antioxidants.

Here’s How To Eat More Spinach:

Spinach is such a versatile food as it can be added to anything, without affecting the taste of that food.

You can simply make a spinach salad, add spinach to your omelettes, or you can get creative by adding spinach to your smoothies.

Here’s a delicious smoothie recipe that includes spinach: How To Make A Whey Protein Green Smoothie Recipe

#4. Chicken

Chicken is loaded with healthy amino acids that make it a complete protein.

Not only will this help you build metabolism boosting muscle, but the thermic effect of protein also helps you burn more calories just through the digestion process alone.

Chicken will also help keep you feeling full, so you won’t get the crazy food cravings.

Just be sure to look for pasture raised chicken, whenever possible.

Here’s How To Eat More Chicken:

I like to grill or bake up 4-5 chicken breasts at a time, and spice them up with:

Sea salt
Black pepper
Garlic powder
Onion powder

Then I store them in Tupperware in the fridge, so I can add the chicken to my big ass salads or eat the chicken as a quick snack, whenever needed.

Want A Healthy Chicken Food Swap?

You can swap chicken with any other complete muscle building protein sources, including:

#5. Eggs

Before you lose it, and say eating eggs everyday will give you a heart attack.

Stop, then step into the 21st century.

Eating a few eggs a day, with an overall healthy diet and lifestyle, will not give you a heart attack.

Eggs are an excellent source of protein as it contains a complete range of amino acids.

90% of the nutrition in the whole egg is also found in the yolk, as it contains healthy fats and vitamins and minerals for overall long-term health.

Here’s How To Eat More Eggs:

I like making a vegetable packed omelette or simply hard boiling eggs for a quick snack.

Want A Healthy Eggs Food Swap?

You can try grass fed beef, wild salmon, or mackerel, however there really isn’t another food packed with protein and healthy fats like eggs.

#6. Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is full of saturated fats, but that’s a good thing, as it’s the medium chained triglycerides, a.k.a. MCT fat.

This type of fat produces healthy energy for the body, improves brain health, and is not shown to enter the cholesterol cycle in the body, meaning it doesn’t increase bad cholesterol.

Here’s How To Eat More Coconut Oil:

Due to it’s higher smoking point, meaning it won’t oxidize in heat like many other cooking oils, I use coconut oil for cooking over higher heat.

I also add it to my morning coconut oil coffee for a healthy brain power and focus boost.

Here’s how I make coconut oil coffee.

Want A Healthy Coconut Oil Food Swap?

For cooking over higher heat, I like using avocado oil since it has a higher smoke point, without the high omega 6 content found in other vegetable oils.

For your coffee, you could also add grass fed butter to make bulletproof coffee, if you can handle the dairy.

That’s it Live Lean Nation.
