00:00:00
over the past year I lost over 30 lb of
00:00:02
fat and got six pack abs for the first
00:00:05
time in my life and today I want to
00:00:08
break down everything I ate that made
00:00:10
fat loss feel kind of easy and to prove
00:00:13
that eating to lose weight doesn't mean
00:00:15
eating boring bland food I've invited a
00:00:18
Michelin recommended Chef to taste test
00:00:20
my meals and give his honest review
00:00:23
please Reveal Your
00:00:27
score no way dude really that is
00:00:30
so good so I designed this meal plan to
00:00:32
Total just under 2,000 calories with
00:00:35
over 140 g of protein with each meal and
00:00:38
snack being able to be made in under 20
00:00:40
minutes or meal prepped once and
00:00:43
portioned out for the rest of the week
00:00:44
so getting started my number one option
00:00:47
for breakfast is the breakfast burrito
00:00:49
to start fry up three slices of Black
00:00:52
Forest ham in your pan I like to cook
00:00:54
these for 3 minutes on each side until
00:00:57
they are lightly browned and while
00:00:59
that's cooking I chop a handful of
00:01:01
spinach and six cherry tomatoes then I
00:01:03
whisk together four eggs in a
00:01:06
bowl in that same pan that I cooked my
00:01:08
ham in we are going to cook our spinach
00:01:10
for about 15 to 30 seconds and then add
00:01:13
in our whisked eggs to scramble I like
00:01:16
mine a bit on the softer side but if you
00:01:18
prefer your eggs dry well that's between
00:01:21
you and God add your ham scramble and
00:01:25
cherry tomatoes on top and finally
00:01:27
finish with some Valentina hot sauce
00:01:29
There you go no you've got a breakfast
00:01:30
burrito that contains 450 calories and
00:01:33
42 g of protein and on top of it it
00:01:36
tastes great at least that's what I
00:01:39
think to be the ultimate judge I've
00:01:41
invited Raph the head chef at a Michelin
00:01:44
recommended restaurant here in Vancouver
00:01:46
so while I think these meals are great I
00:01:48
am a bit nervous to see how they rank
00:01:51
with a world class Chef this is what I
00:01:54
ate pretty much every day for breakfast
00:01:56
this is like my version of a breakfast
00:01:57
burrito all right should we taste it
00:02:00
let's hit it yeah I'm
00:02:02
nerv the tension in me right now is
00:02:05
[Music]
00:02:08
crazy
00:02:11
mhm mhm that's very good really yeah wow
00:02:15
yeah there's all types of flavors
00:02:16
Happening Here me personally maybe a
00:02:18
little too much spice for morning meal
00:02:21
if you were to rate this from 1 to 10 on
00:02:25
a scale of how good this breakfast
00:02:27
burrito was what would you give this
00:02:37
oh dude that's nice that's good wow I
00:02:41
would eat this starting off with a solid
00:02:43
review on my breakfast it is time to
00:02:45
move on to lunch and my favorite meal
00:02:48
prep has been this chicken tortilla soup
00:02:51
because not only is it super easy to
00:02:54
make an absolute bat of this stuff but
00:02:57
one serving will have just 3 25 calories
00:03:01
with 35 g of protein start with a large
00:03:04
cooking pot and we're going to Brown
00:03:06
four chicken breasts I've just seasoned
00:03:08
these with salt and pepper but after one
00:03:10
side is browned I will flip and add one
00:03:12
large onion chopped and let that cook
00:03:15
for 3 to 5 more minutes let him cook
00:03:17
after that add five cloves of chopped
00:03:19
garlic in one diced jalapeno I removed
00:03:22
the seeds of my jalapeno because I am
00:03:24
fragile but leave them in if you want a
00:03:27
little bit more spice then we are adding
00:03:29
1 tbsp of paprika cumin and garlic
00:03:32
powder and then salt and pepper to taste
00:03:34
while all of those flavors are getting
00:03:36
to know each other I add in one carton
00:03:38
of chicken stock and one large can of
00:03:40
crushed tomatoes stir and let that
00:03:42
simmer for 15 minutes
00:03:44
let once your 15 minutes is up we are
00:03:47
going to remove our chicken and shred it
00:03:50
down to mediumsized chunks add into the
00:03:53
pot a can of strained and rinsed black
00:03:55
beans some corn and finally we'll re add
00:03:57
our shredded chicken back into the pot
00:04:00
mix everything together and we are ready
00:04:02
to go I like to top mine with some plain
00:04:04
Greek yogurt and cilantro but you could
00:04:06
also do avocado or tortilla chips let's
00:04:09
see how this one
00:04:17
goes the silence is killing me man it's
00:04:20
killing me you
00:04:29
[Music]
00:04:38
D it's delicious
00:04:40
really
00:04:41
hey really you're not just saying that
00:04:44
you're not just being
00:04:46
nice wherever you found this recipe from
00:04:49
is it's well written it's well balanced
00:04:53
um the spices come
00:04:55
through I personally like it because
00:04:58
there's a good amount of chicken I've
00:04:59
had this kind of soup before and it's
00:05:02
always like small shredded bits of
00:05:05
chicken and I'm always looking for more
00:05:06
mhm personally just another pinch of
00:05:09
salt um maybe a little tortilla chips in
00:05:11
there have fun with it
00:05:12
[Music]
00:05:14
yeah hey going up wow going up now as
00:05:19
important as coming up with healthy
00:05:20
meals for breakfast lunch and dinner is
00:05:23
one of the key reasons I wasn't losing
00:05:25
weight when I first started out was
00:05:27
because of my snacks and when I started
00:05:30
tracking my calories I realized I was
00:05:32
eating around 600 extra calories in an
00:05:35
evening just from snacks so having just
00:05:39
a couple filling low calorie snack
00:05:41
options to fill in the gaps throughout
00:05:43
the day was a literal GameChanger for my
00:05:46
progress on the scale and by far my
00:05:48
favorite midday snack was easily this
00:05:50
blueberry protein Oat Bar to make this
00:05:53
we're going to preheat our oven to 375
00:05:55
and spray a large casserole dish with
00:05:58
cooking spray then in a large bowl we're
00:06:00
going to mix together six cups of
00:06:02
old-fashioned rolled oats with 1 and 1/2
00:06:05
cups of vanilla protein powder
00:06:06
personally I'm using the transparent
00:06:08
Labs French vanilla flavor then add 6
00:06:11
cups of unsweetened almond milk six eggs
00:06:13
half a cup of stevia or maple syrup 3
00:06:16
tbsp vanilla 3 tbsp of melted coconut
00:06:19
oil and 1 teaspoon of salt then add 1
00:06:22
and 1/2 cups of blueberries and sprinkle
00:06:24
cinnamon on there for extra flavor once
00:06:26
all of that is mixed together carefully
00:06:28
pour the mixture into our prepared
00:06:30
casserole dish and then top with
00:06:32
additional blueberries bake this for 35
00:06:35
to 40 minutes or until the center is set
00:06:37
remove from the oven and let cool for a
00:06:39
few minutes and you're ready to
00:06:42
[Music]
00:06:44
serve can feel that there's a lot of
00:06:46
protein in this yeah that's very dense
00:06:49
and I would probably struggle to finish
00:06:51
this yeah so if I have any feedback I'll
00:06:54
probably just make it more of a shallow
00:06:55
mixture so then you're kind of eating
00:06:57
more of like a 1 in bar yeah rather than
00:07:00
a granola cake yeah an absolute
00:07:06
unit four in hindsight maybe you're
00:07:09
better off dividing it between two
00:07:11
casserole dishes if you'd like a thinner
00:07:13
less dense Oat Bar but I like it so do
00:07:17
with that what you will I'm hoping that
00:07:18
I have Sav for the best for last I've
00:07:20
got like a onew Punch coming up with
00:07:22
dinner and dessert so this is my swing
00:07:25
for the for the fences here for dinner
00:07:28
I'm trying to enjoy some something that
00:07:29
feels a little fancier that both me and
00:07:32
my wife will enjoy and for that my go-to
00:07:35
has been this chicken pesto pasta that's
00:07:37
not only filling but you can adjust the
00:07:40
noodles to easily make this higher
00:07:42
protein or lower calorie depending on
00:07:44
what you need to make our green sauce
00:07:46
we're going to add two cloves of garlic
00:07:48
and 1/4 cup of olive oil to a small
00:07:50
Skillet and place over medium heat now
00:07:53
please don't freak out about the olive
00:07:55
oil because this will make about five
00:07:57
servings and everything else in sauce is
00:08:00
going to be low calorie that I promise
00:08:02
it will balance out sautΓ© your garlic
00:08:04
until it is lightly browned and then
00:08:06
remove it from the heat from there we
00:08:08
are going to add 1 lound of roughly
00:08:10
chopped kale to a large pot of boiling
00:08:12
water to cook for just 1 minute just to
00:08:15
let that soften then we transfer the
00:08:17
kale into a bowl of cold water to cool
00:08:20
before adding it into a blender along
00:08:22
with 1 cup of Basil our garlic olive oil
00:08:25
1 and 1/2 tbsp of fresh lemon juice half
00:08:27
a cup of grated Parmesan cheese finish
00:08:30
with some salt and pepper and red pepper
00:08:31
flakes and then blend the sauce until
00:08:33
you have a nice smooth texture from
00:08:35
there add your choice of pasta to our
00:08:37
boiling water and cook until your
00:08:39
noodles have a slight bit of firmness
00:08:42
and be sure to set aside half a cup of
00:08:44
pasta water once it's finished in a
00:08:46
separate pan cook two chicken breasts
00:08:48
until the exterior is browned and the
00:08:50
interior is cooked fully through I've
00:08:52
seasoned mine with just salt and pepper
00:08:54
once your noodles are done mix your
00:08:56
green sauce in until you reach your
00:08:57
desired consistency and and top with
00:09:00
your diced chicken and a little extra
00:09:01
parmesan cheese but for dessert we're
00:09:04
going with a cinnamon espresso protein
00:09:06
ice cream made in my ninja creamy to
00:09:09
make this I'm adding 1 cup of almond
00:09:11
milk to a blender followed by 1 cup of
00:09:14
high protein dairy milk one scoop of
00:09:16
French vanilla protein powder which I am
00:09:18
using from this video sponsor
00:09:20
transparent Labs I like their stuff
00:09:22
because what you see on the label is
00:09:25
what you're actually getting a lot of
00:09:27
protein powders come with unwanted
00:09:29
chemicals and sweeteners even some that
00:09:32
might not be listed on the label but
00:09:35
with transparent Labs every product they
00:09:37

00:09:39
confirm what you see on the label is
00:09:41

00:09:46

00:09:51
product labels so you know precisely
00:09:53
what you are putting into your body I've
00:09:55
been using their French vanilla protein
00:09:57
powder in both my blueberry protein bars
00:10:00
as well as for this ice cream and it
00:10:03
tastes great to our blender I'm also
00:10:06
going to add a single shot of espresso
00:10:08
an extra teaspoon of stevia and topping
00:10:11
that off with a little Shake of cinnamon
00:10:13
and mix all of that together to freeze
00:10:16
overnight if you want to give
00:10:18
transparent Labs a try for yourself you
