What you EAT changes your life. I can’t fully show up for myself, my business, or my kids unless I’m intentional about what’s on my plate.
Intentional eating, rather than just intuitive eating, is key. Each meal I choose influences my energy, mental clarity, and overall abundance. I’m either in the driver’s seat or reacting to whatever snacks are in the pantry.
For me, it’s crucial to consistently eat enough—right now, I’m aiming for 130 grams of protein a day. Starting my day with at least 30 grams of protein is essential for hitting that goal and reaping the benefits that come with a high-protein breakfast.
I refuse to strive for perfection in my eating habits. Instead, I keep it simple with a checklist: Where’s the Fab Four? Amino Acids, Fatty Acids, Fiber—check! This approach provides me with blood sugar stability and nutrient density, all while allowing flexibility in my meals.
Take my Beef Chorizo Eggs Breakfast Taco, for example:
- Protein: ½ lb beef and 2 eggs (50g + 12g)
- Fat: Egg yolks and avocado
- Fiber/Greens: Spinach and cilantro
It’s not complicated—simple, nourishing whole foods are the foundation of my approach. And prioritizing enough protein and the Fab Four at breakfast has become my key to thriving each day. Looking for more ways to hit 30 grams of protein at breakfast? Check out this blog post here.
