All Flavor. No Compromise.

They say you have to choose between flavor and health. You know what? They’re wrong.

Here’s how seven nutrition and fitness experts build delicious, healthful meals that fuel their lives:

Pre-Workout

Troy Brooks | @troy_brooks

Troy, a wellness professional specializing in pre- and post-natal personal training, recommends keeping it low carb and nutrient dense before workouts.

Troy’s Bowl:

• Baby Spinach
• Harissa
• Spicy Lamb Meatballs
• Kalamata Olives
• Cabbage Slaw

“Lean easily digestible protein, rich greens, essential healthy fats — and the Harissa is loaded in vitamins and helps speed up your metabolism.”

Plant Based

Jules Hunt | @omandthecity

This yoga and mindfulness teacher, wellness entrepreneur, and blogger, is not vegan – but she still very much enjoys a meat-free meal.

Jules’s Bowl:

• Spinach
• Saffron Basmati Rice
• Traditional Hummus
• Roasted Vegetables (seasonal)
• Cauliflower Quinoa Tabbouleh
• Carrots + Currants (seasonal)
• Lemon Herb Tahini

“I love all of the clean and simple ingredients in this bowl. While I do eat meat, I opted to keep it plant-based since it’s already jam-packed with delicious whole foods!”
