Are you looking for a healthier lifestyle? Do you feel like you don’t have enough time to eat healthy during the week?
This is a quick guide for the newbies to the Whole30 diet. 14 exciting and fresh meals that are Whole30 approved.
Before we get to the recipes, I want to make sure you know what Whole30 is all about.
Whole30 is a 30-day lifestyle change, or body reset, with no deprivation or starvation. Whole30 incorporates meat, seafood, eggs, tons of vegetables, some fruit, and plenty of good fats from fruits, oils, nuts and seeds.
The focus is natural and unprocessed – think the outer aisles of the store. You are not limited on calorie intake as long as you are staying in the guidelines of the Whole30 program. The program focuses on eliminating dairy, added sugar (sugar from fruits is fine), grains, MSG, carrageenan, and sulfites.
Here is a book that helps you get started right away.
Whole30 is all about cleaning and detoxing your body. This helps prevent cravings and resets your body to in’s natural health. I suggest eating organically when buying to rid your body of unwanted chemicals and pesticides and to clean the gut.
Try Whole30 for 30 days and see how your body responds to your new lifestyle. These recipes are perfect for the Whole30 lifestyle and are fast to make for your busy weeknights.
