A quick and protein-rich meal, offering 38 grams of protein, can be prepared in a mere 10 minutes post-workout.
Ingrid Clay, the HIIT/HIRT expert for Chris Hemsworth's fitness app Centr, recommends a quick and nutritious post-workout meal: Veggie Baked Sweet Potato Chili. This eight-ingredient dish is not only easy to prepare but also offers a balanced mix of protein, carbs, and vegetables.
To make this vegan delight, you'll need three medium-sized sweet potatoes, olive oil, black beans, lentils, frozen peas or sweetcorn, diced tomatoes, red onion, capsicum, vegetable stock, garlic clove, Mexican spice mix, salt, pepper, and Greek yogurt for serving.
Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (204°C) and lining a baking tray with baking paper. Peel and cube the sweet potatoes, toss them in olive oil, and bake for 15-20 minutes.
Next, add the remaining ingredients except the yogurt to the baking tray. Cover the mixture with foil and bake for a further 20-25 minutes. Serve with the Greek yogurt.
Clay, who was once a bodybuilder, has a more intuitive, mindful approach to eating now. She suggests refuelling the body after a workout, just as you would before. This means eating when hungry and stopping when no longer hungry, not when full.
Moreover, Clay advises against eating while distracted, such as watching TV, as it is considered one of the most mindless forms of eating. Instead, she recommends focusing on food during meals.
Clay also offers two quick breakfast ideas that can be prepared the night before and mentions that she sometimes adds her own plant-based touches and flourishes to the recipe. For a sweet snack on the go, she recommends eight-ingredient protein bites.
Unfortunately, the search results do not provide the name of the person who developed the recipe for this vegan dish. However, with Clay's endorsement, it's clear that this Veggie Baked Sweet Potato Chili is a meal worth trying for those seeking a mindful and nutritious post-workout option.
