I'm really enjoying teaching cooking classes at Google! My series is called "How I Ate 70 Pounds." It's an interesting concept where I talk through my weight loss story with the audience, then demo two recipes that showcase that healthy cooking can be delicious eats. That was very evident to the class when they tried these turkey sloppy joes with crispy onion straws.
Pro Tip: If you're not a fan of the "sloppy", you can break up the bun and make into a sloppy joe bowl!
This hearty comfort meal between two toasted buns packs a whopping 30g of protein and is an unconventional way to get in a solid dose of vitamin C (from the tomato sauce!).
I recently did a talk about my weight loss story at Google's cooking school called "How I Ate to Lose 70 pounds" followed by demos of two of my most popular recipes.
Afterwards, I did a Q&A where someone asked if I had any tips on how to cook something that was high protein, easy to prep in advance, and most importantly, wasn't dry chicken breast.
I didn't have a great answer for her. I'm a big advocate of meal prepping because it helps you remove stress about what you're going to eat for dinner after a long day at work. It really helps with staying on track with fitness goals!
I make a dinner menu a week in advance, go to the grocery store once, and try to cook as many of my dinners in advance as long as it doesn't sacrifice quality. The problem with meal prepping chicken is that it dries out and doesn't taste all that great when its re-heated.
Enter, my no-mayo tuna salad sandwich. At 31g of protein, 6g of fat, and only 327 calories (including the bun), I think I have the perfect option for people like this audience member, and probably even you!
