Fruit and Vegetable recipes on the go

[David Osorio]

Hey, just wanted to know if anyone out there had any recipes, ideas or suggestions as to how they eat their f/v either on the go or even when they have time to sit down and be fancy. As a trainer in NYC i have to eat the majority of my meals between clients or on the subway and i was starting to get tired of cutting up an assortment of raw f/v's and throwing them into Tupperware. kind of bland sometimes

Any tasty ideas/mixtures that work for you guys/girls would be much appreciated.

I suppose i could extend my query to your on the go proteins as well. Reply at your discretion.

I've been wondering about this myself. Specifically, I'm looking for Zone-like snacks (doesn't have to be blocks, but it needs something close to a 40/30/30 macronutrient breakdown) that don't involve meat and won't easily melt. Soy nuts seem to have a pretty good amount of protein (according to http://www.calorieking.com/foods/calories-in-nuts-soy-dry-roasted_f-Y2lkPTIzMjEx JmJpZD0xJmZpZD03MjcyMCZwYXI9.html), but I have heard some negative things about the effect of soy on hormones.

If I had to name this recipe I'd call it pumpkin bars cuz thats what ive been using, but you could use any kind of vegetables (just boil something squash-like and then puree it in a blender):

1 can coconut milk
2 cups shredded coconut
1/4 cup cocoa powder
7 o-3 eggs
a whole lotta grass-fed beef tallow (you could use any oil)
3 cups nut flour
4 cups vegetable puree
2 cups flax/hemp/sesame seed mix
3 tbs honey or maple syrup
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp tumeric

Simply mix together in a large bowl, bake in shallow dish or muffin tins. Calorie PACKED on the go!

bake for how long at what temp?? im not the best cook so i need specifics. thanks a lot!

[Greg Davis]

its kinda up to you... the higher temp and longer you bake, probably the more appetizing it will be

but more nutritious at low tempteratures
i bake at about ~290 degrees for roughly 45 mins to an hour
