WORK WEEK MEAL PLAN Tip #1 Don t fear fat! Healthy fat is essential for keeping you full and providing your body with energy so that you can stick with your healthy choices. Embrace healthy fats like avocados, fatty fish, chia seeds, grass fed butter, coconut oil, raw nuts,etc. Tip #2 Eat Slowly! It takes about 20 minutes for your stomach to know that it is full. When you slow down you give yourself time to know when you feel full. Research shows that people that eat slowly consume less food. Less food then equals weight loss. Eating slowly also improves digestion. For many this means less indigestion and assimilation of nutrients from food. Tip #3 Meal Prep! Cook once and eat 2 or 3 times. Make large enough batches at the beginning of the week to have it more than once.

Make-a-Head Smoothie Standard Smoothie Pack Formula 1 cup fruit (I like blueberries) 1 scoop protein powder 1 cup baby spinach Add a scoop of protein powder to a sealable sandwich bag. Add spinach and then fruit. Seal bag and store in freezer. When ready to eat, dump ingredients into blender with 1 cup of milk or beverage of choice and blend. Make-a-Head Egg Cups 1 dozen eggs Bacon; uncured, no sugar Chives (optional) Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cook bacon for about 8-10 minutes. Remove from pan while still pliable, not crisp. Cool on paper towels. Grease your muffin tins. Put one piece of bacon in each hole, wrapping it around to line the sides. Crack the eggs in each hole. Top with chopped chives.

Apple Cinnamon Hot Cereal For the hot cereal: 1 tbsp organic coconut oil 1 large apple or 2 small peeled and diced 1/4 cup raisins or chopped dates 1/8-1/4 tsp sea salt 1.5 tsp cinnamon dash nutmeg 3 tbsp unsweetened coconut flakes 1 cup chopped raw nuts walnuts, cashews, pecans or a combination (I used pecans and walnuts) 1 cup unsweetened almond milk* or canned light coconut milk Toppings: 1 banana sliced Unsweetened nut butter Heat a large saucepan over med low heat and add the coconut oil until melted. Add the apples and nuts, sprinkle with salt, stir, and cook for about 1 minute until apples begin to soften and nuts begin to brown. Lower the heat to low and add the almond milk, shredded coconut, raisins and cinnamon. Stir, raise the heat and bring to a boil. Allow to boil while stirring for a minute, then lower to a simmer, cover, and cook another 2-5 minutes* until the apples are soft and some liquid is absorbed. Nuts will soften but will still have a crunch*. Serve hot with toppings like sliced banana, more almond milk and coconut butter or your favorite nut butter. You can also make the hot cereal ahead of time, store covered in the refrigerator (without toppings), heat prior to serving and then add toppings. Enjoy! https://angelanaumann.com/ 3
