80 Day Obsession Recipes

I'm starting another round of the 80 Day Obsession program on Monday with my Unicorn Group and I thought I would put together a post with some of my favourite meals from our first round!  We have lots of new ladies joining in this round so I wanted to share what meals worked well for me as a working busy mom.  

My routine was to make my meal plan and grocery shop on Saturday that way I could start meal prep on Sunday morning without needing to rush out of the house to the grocery store.  This worked so well for me and I would often prep at least 3 days of meals ahead so that I could easily grab and go in the rushed mornings.

I followed Plan B for 11 of the 13 weeks and then bumped up to Plan C for the last two weeks of the program so the meals shared here work perfectly with Plan B and the pre and post workout meals double as Meal Option 3 since you just add 1 Orange container to that meal. 

I can honestly say I enjoyed all of these meals and repeated many of them each week.  Here are my results from the program!!  



If you are curious, my typical meals for the day looked like this:


4:45am Preworkout meal (swapped for meal option 2) 
Greek yogurt with raspberry parfait topped with Almond Butter.

5:00am Workout 

6:00 am post workout Recover plus an apple or half banana 

8:30am post workout meal  
My go to "Breakfast" was Shakeology with spinach blended with ice and water plus 1 slice of toast and almond butter or overnight oats with cinnamon and almond butter. 

11:30am - Meal option 1 (swapped for pre workout meal)  
Taco salad with organic refried beans or brown rice, Greek yogurt and natural salsa, tomatoes, greens and ground turkey. OR I did a Greek Couscous Salad with chicken and cucumbers and tomatoes.

2:30pm - Meal option 2: 
I started doing a simple spinach salad with strawberries and goat cheese crumbles and then I moved to doing a snack box with grapes, cucumbers and cheese. (See recipes linked below)

5:30pm - Meal option 3:  
I used this as my dinner meal and changed it up each day. Our go to meals were the chicken sweet potato wraps, chicken Tinga tacos and I often used the fixate cooking show recipes on BOD for inspiration each week. 

Here are my go to recipes....

Everything Bagel Goat Cheese Ball

Everything BUT the Bagel Goat Cheese Balls

I've got everything but the bagel goat cheese balls with cucumber all prepped and packed for one of my snacks this week! They were SUPER easy to make and a fun work day snack!! 

I bought the Trader Joes Everything but the Bagel Seasoning on Amazon since we don't have one here but honestly you can just make it if you are so inclined and don't want to wait for Prime delivery!!

To make the Everything but the Bagel Seasoning you mix:

1 1/2 TBSP white sesame seeds

1 1/2 TBSP black sesame seeds

1 TBSP poppy seeds

1 TBSP dried minced garlic or dried garlic flakes

1 TBSP dried minced onion or dried onion flakes

2 tsp Flaked Sea Salt

Everything Bagel cheese Ball

Ingredients

3/4 cup of goat cheese

2 TBSP Everything Bagel Seasoning

Sliced cucumbers or veggies of your choice

Directions

Using a cookie dough scooper, scoop out a spoonful of goat cheese crumbles.  Release it into your hand and press it together.  Pour 2 Tablespoons of seasoning onto a plate. Roll each ball into the everything but the Seasoning until coated.  Set each ball aside and store in a sealed container in the refrigerator.  

I made 5 goat cheese balls each one was about an inch wide and serves as my Healthy fat/cheese for the day!  

Enjoy!!

Roasted Butternut Squash & Oat Parfait

Roasted Butternut Squash & Oat Parfait

Packed neatly into a Mason jar, yogurt and butternut overnight oats is a perfect grab-and-eat breakfast before early morning workouts. This week I made several of these as my pre-workout meal ahead of time to store in the fridge so I could grab it in the morning to eat before my workout. 

Ingredients

• 1 cup roasted butternut squash (or pumpkin)

• ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt

• ¼ cup dry rolled oats

• 1 tsp. coconut oil (for roasting)

• ½ tsp. pumpkin pie spice (or mixture of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and ginger)

Directions:

• Peel the squash, cut the bottom (round part) in half and scoop out the seeds.  The seeds are only in the round part of the squash the top portion is solid.  Then cut the whole thing into bite-sized cubes. 
• Place butternut squash cubes on a parchment lined baking sheet, drizzle on 1 tsp. of melted coconut oil per cup of squash, sprinkle with pumpkin pie spice (or a mixture of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and ginger) and roast in an oven heated to 375° F for about 30 minutes, or until soft. 
• When cool, layer half of the yogurt, ½ cup pumpkin, and 2 Tbsp. oats in a jar or other container; repeat. 
• Refrigerate overnight.

Banana Apple Muffins

I'm on day 66 of the 80 Day obsession program and I feel like I've honestly found my soul mate workout program.  It challenges me and gives variety and yet it isn't killing my body (my knees are good etc).  I've also been following the timed nutrition plan for the program so I've tried quite a few new recipes and been getting creative as well with my meal combos!  

One of the combos I have is a Blue container (healthy fat), Green Container (veggies) and Purple Container (fruit), which at first I had no idea what to have for that meal.  But I've actually come up with several meal options and it's become one of my favourite meals of the day!

                              

A few of my meal combos for meal option 2 💙💚💜 have been Spinach, Strawberries and goat cheese as well as my favourite little snack box with green grapes, white cheddar and cucumber slices!

Then for a few weeks I made these Banana Apple muffins which count as a Blue and Purple so for my afternoon snack I would have a muffin and a cup of tea PLUS some sort of vegetable along side it!  

These babies are so tasty and easy to make. BONUS is they are gluten free and if you sub the grass fed butter for coconut oil they could be dairy free as well!  

Banana Apple Muffins

Serving: 1 each (makes 9 muffins)

Ingredients

2 eggs
2 large ripe bananas, mashed
1 Tbsp unsalted organic grass fed butter, melted
1 1/2 cups almond flour
3/4 tsp baking Sosa
1 dash sea salt
1/2 cup chopped apple

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Line muffin pan with nine muffin papers and lightly coat with spray. Set aside.
• Combine, eggs, banana and butter in a medium bowl; mix well. Set aside. Combine Allman flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl; mix well.
• Add almond meal mixture to egg mixture; mix until blended.
• Add apple; mix until just blended.
• Divide batter evenly between prepared muffin cups 3/4 full.
• Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until golden brown and toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
• Transfer muffins to rack; cool.

What I've learned with following from this program is that having a new program to follow inspires me, it pushes me to get creative with my meals and not get lazy!  You can't out exercise a bad diet so following the nutrition plan is SO important to your success in any program you are following!
