Recipe of the Week:
Here is a great dinner you can make in 25 minutes. Give this No Sugar Ginger Beef & Broccoli a shot!

Ingredients:
1 tbsp avocado oil
1 tbsp arrowroot or cornstarch
1.5lb lean beef (flank or sirloin)
1.5 tbsp avocado oil
3 green onions
1 tbsp garlic
1 large red bell pepper
2 cups chopped broccoli
Sauce
1 cup chicken broth
4 tbsp low sodium soy
1.5 tbsp fresh ginger
1 tbsp arrowroot

Instructions:
STEP 1
Toss beef in arrowroot or cornstarch.

STEP 2
Set a wok or carbon steel pan on high heat. Once hot, add oil and the beef. Cook until sear marks appear, about 5 minutes. Then remove from the skillet and set aside.

STEP 3
Reduce the skillet to medium and add oil, green onion and garlic. Cook until fragrant – about 2 minutes.

STEP 4
Add bell pepper and sear together for 2 minutes.

STEP 5
Add chopped broccoli or broccolini, then cover the pan to let the veggies soften for 2 – 3 minutes.

STEP 6
Mix together the ingredients for the sauce. Add the beef to the pan and toss together. Pour in the sauce and once it starts to bubbles, stir immediately and continuously so the sauce doesn’t get slimy.

STEP 7
Garnish with green onion and sesame seeds. Enjoy with your choice of brown rice, jasmine rice or cauliflower rice.

Nutrition of the Week:
Do your part to prevent HANGER-BRING SNACKS!!

Snacks are a great way to hit your nutrition targets and stay fueled at times when you can’t get in a full meal. I think portable options are especially handy-things you can throw in your bag or car to save you from the drive thru when life gets crazy. Trust me, nobody wants to be around someone who is HANGRY.

Check out the options below for some ideas:

                Protein focused snacks: Hard boiled eggs, shredded wheat cereal with milk, nuts like pistachios/walnuts/almonds, spoonful of nut butter (Justin’s comes in single serve packets that fit into a bag, sunflower seeds, string cheese, babybel cheese, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, beef jerky, bars-cliff/larabars

                Carb focused: applesauce packs, piece of fruit (orange/banana/apple/berries/grapes), sliced veggies(bell peppers/celery/carrots/kohlrabi), whole grain bread, Kodiak pancakes/waffles

                Fat focused: avocado, nuts, nut butters, dark chocolate

Nutrition of the Week:

Intuitive eating vs Tracking

Consistency over time is the most important factor when it comes to improving your nutrition. But what about intuitive eating? Shouldn’t you just be able to know how much you should eat by listening to your body? Sometimes, clients will feel guilty if they aren’t ‘perfect’ or like they are being ‘obsessive’ when it comes to tracking macros. Then they will try intuitive eating and struggle because sometimes they will fuel appropriately and sometimes, they won’t. The truth is, it’s really hard to know what your intake is if you aren’t tracking it. It’s also difficult to tell if your sleep, energy, recovery, and performance are improving if you aren’t tracking that either. You can’t draw any connections between nutrition and performance or really get anything dialed in without that data. A lot of us came to CrossFit for that reason-we track performance over time using the whiteboard and by repeating workouts so that you can see if you are improving your work capacity.

Research also supports the idea of consistency over time bringing you success when you are trying to make change (in this study, weight loss). The study shows that you get the best results when you are tracking your food consistently. The participants in this study who were MOST successful were NOT perfect, in fact, the group with the most success tracked over 66% of the total days possible. I think this is really encouraging, because it means that if you are tracking even just 5 out of every 7 days, you can still make progress.  I also think intuitive eating can be great for some people, but not while also chasing body composition or performance goals. This is why periodizing your nutrition over the course of the year to match your training is usually the best approach because you can build in periods where you don’t have to track as closely. I’ll talk more about that next week! Here’s the link to the study: The Effect of Adherence to Dietary Tracking on Weight Loss: Using HLM to Model Weight Loss over Time – PubMed (nih.gov)
