I’m still figuring my way around WFPB. I know people think it is simple, but the key is to get calorie dense food that will satiate one for a while. For example, a salad is very calorie deficient and doesn’t fill one for too long. But a 1/2 cup of beans curry with quinoa will keep me full for 2-3 hours. It is not all salads, fruit and vegetables. It is finding a good balance of food.

One of my fave breakfasts is overnight oats with a berry sauce (all fresh/frozen berries) and fruit. I typically eat around 1/3 cup of cooked oats with 1/2 banana and about 2 table spoons of the berry sauce. To sweeten, they recommend pitted dates. This has been one of my fave meals for breakfast. 1 cup of raw oats and I get 3 meals out of it.

I’m still working on reducing recipes that I currently have. Many recipes have 4 – 8 servings which means its double that for me. So unless it freezes well, I end up eating this for days and days. Way to have food burnout.

This week I will try and cut down on recipes so that I don’t end up throwing food away.
