I need to start thinking about some spring recipes, but for the last two months I have made two huge pots of soup (+25 servings). One was a butternut squash quinoa chicken soup (300 calories) and the other a great butternut squash quinoa chili (370 calories). I also made 20 Turkey Quinoa Enchiladas (400 calories). I keep frozen fruits, flax seed, wheat germ, peanut butter powder, pumpkin seed, and almond milk on hand for smoothies. I buy large thick cuts of meat, cut them in 8 oz pieces, sous vide them with an appropriate dry rub, and halve them for my wife and I for a meat portion. We eat a large salad about every other day. I try to either buy veggies that are pre cut or cut them up myself in quantity and have available in the fridge. I try to have three meals a day that are 350-500 calories and a couple of small snacks. I keep a no calorie power aid available and drink one if I feel hungry and it’s not time to eat. I never eat if I’m not hungry and sometimes only have two meals.
