(Quick & Easy) DIY Weight Loss Meal Plan

I can't eat my heart

Today for breakfast we are going to be making chocolate strawberry oats

I know that I do a lot of oatmeal recipes on here, but oats are so versatile

They're so quick and easy to make. All we're going to do here is add our oats into a bowl, add our cocoa powder, stir it around a little bit

and then add our maple syrup in and stir that around again. I'm just adding in some hot water

Like I said, I really like to use instant oats and I highly recommend anybody out there who has a time crunch

who has work to get to or school to get to and doesn't have a lot of time to make breakfast

just go for the instant oats. They are a tiny bit more processed, but they still have the same nutritional value as all the other kinds of cut oats out there

And just save yourself some time and a little bit of sanity. Get the good food in and get yourself some instant oats

I just added a little bit of coconut flakes on top of this and voila. Voila

For lunch, we're going to be making one of the most requested dishes that I get whenever I post this on Instagram

It's a cold potato salad. So first we need to steam some potatoes

The way that I do this every single time is I add a quart of water into my instant pot

put my steamer tray in there, and then I put my potatoes in. So I like to use the red baby potatoes

It's super creamy and I just put as many in here as I possibly can fit

just because every time I make potatoes, I'll just leave them in the fridge if I have extra

and they'll be something that I can just cook up really fast

So I put those in my instant pot for 10 minutes and then we're just going to take them out

What I'm doing here is I'm just going to be chopping the potatoes into smaller bits in this little bowl because they're hot

What I've noticed making this recipe over time is that using the hot potatoes and making a dressing for it

it helps it to soak up more of the flavor and it just turns out so much better if you use hot potatoes

To make this dressing, we are going to need cashew butter, lemon juice, some garlic powder

a pinch of salt, and some black pepper to taste. Just add a tiny bit of water into that and then stir that around until it becomes nice and creamy

Next, we're going to add some veggies into this. I'm just using what I have on hand

Some chopped red bell pepper and some red onion. You can really use whatever you like in here

I've used tons of different things. I've used broccoli. I've put baby tomatoes in here

I put spinach in here sometimes or greens or steamed kale. Really, whatever your taste preference is, just go for it

So we're going to add our dressing in and then toss it around. This potato salad is really, really good when it's cold

So you want to let it sit in your fridge for an hour or two, but it makes a super ideal thing to bring to work or school

especially if you don't have a way to heat up food and you just want something that's really refreshing

This is like your go-to work or school meal. For our dinner, we're going to be making some sweet potato sushi bowls

So here I'm just chopping up a few sweet potatoes. Like the normal potatoes, whenever I'm chopping and baking things

I just like to do as many as I can for leftovers and to throw into bowls and to throw into other meals

So I bake these in my air fryer on 360 degrees for 20 minutes and they turn out perfect just like this

Super golden, creamy, delicious. All we're going to be doing for this is adding some brown rice into a bowl

This was something that I already also had precooked, which I highly recommend doing this just because if you have leftovers like all of this stuff in your fridge

it's super easy to throw together bowls like this. So you can really add whatever you want into this

I have my sweet potatoes and then I chopped up two pieces of nori into small sheets

Put that on the side. I had half an avocado sitting in my fridge, but you could also add tofu or some type of tahini to this

Just drizzle some soy sauce over top and some sesame seeds. And then I'm adding in some more bell pepper that I had and a little bit of cilantro

And then I'm going to add in my rice. And then I'm going to add in my rice

And then I'm going to add in my rice. And then I'm going to add in my rice

And then I'm going to add in my rice. And then I'm going to add in my rice

And then I'm going to add in my rice. And then I'm going to add in my rice

And then I'm going to add in my rice. And then I'm going to add in my rice

And then I'm going to add in my rice. And then I'm going to add in my rice

And then I'm going to add in my rice. And then I'm going to add in my rice
