🥁 Joe’s “Big Fat Brunch” – and what he eats the most

There’ a saying “Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper.” This means breakfast should be the biggest meal of the day for energy while allowing the most time to burn off the calories. Lunch should be moderately sized to sustain productivity, and dinner should be kept light to aid digestion and promote better sleep, aligning with the body’s metabolic rhythms.

While I found it nice to have a small breakfast, I do concentrate on having a really big brunch that can last an hour or more. It helps keeps me from having as many cravings later on, when there’s less time to burn up what I eat.

My “Big Fat Brunch”
I mix it up with these common themes:
🍚 Rice (made in a RiceRobot) with sweet potatoes, cauliflower, brocolli (topped with extra pasture-raised butter). I often mix brown and white rice.
🥙 Humus with anything
🍁 Maple Syrup on almost anything! 🤣 (but moderation as it’s high sugar)
🧀 Aged cheddar cheese straight or with corn chips and Hippeas Chickpea Puffs (see snack section)
🌮 Corn “Street Tacos” fried in Avocado Oil (better for high heat than others) with all kinds of veggies and even dried fruit, beans and meat if needing more protein, top it off with 🍇 Balsamic Vinegar and wow!

🍳 Protein: Beans, Scrambled Eggs, sometimes ground beef or chicken tacos, fish
🍫 Melted Dark chocolate with almonds and maple syrup
🍯 Honey (but never heated as it changes the honey)
🍏 Dried Fruit of all varieties, but especially apples and cherries from Michigan and soft dried mango from the Philippines
🧅 Onions, Bell Peppers, Garlic, Eggplant, cucumber, bite-sized tomatoes (bought still on the vine), dried cherries, and even dried raspberries all sautéed in Avocado Oil
🧂 Celtic Salt with Stur Energy Drinks
🌿 Turmeric, Garlic
🌱 Ashwagandha (Kinf of Herbs) and Shatavari (Queen of herbs) in powder form
