Recently I have heard a very strange statement that when you are very busy, when you have a lot of work, etc., it is simply impossible to eat right. In my opinion, it is not true.
Recently I have heard a very strange statement that when you are
very busy, when you have a lot of work, etc., it is simply impossible
to eat right. In my opinion, it is not true. The most interesting is
that the cooking of useful food always takes me less time than the
fried dishes and bakery. I'm one of those people who do not like to
mess around in the kitchen for a long time, even when I'm sitting at
home and have nothing to do.
So, an ode to a stomach of an
office worker: for cooking we need 5-10 minutes, a thermos (it is
wonderful if you have a special thermos for food), a steamer (it is not
expensive, but if you are very tight with money, you can use a saucepan
and a colander).
A breakfast
For a breakfast it is better to eat cooked porridges of whole grain cereals.
At
the evening pour buckwheat, rice, oatmeal, barley or millet with
boiling water in a thermos in 1 to 3 proportion. And in the morning you
will get a very tasty and healthfully cooked porridge. You can add your
favorite spices, milk or fruit.
For example, you can eat frozen
fruit or berries, jam or honey with oatmeal porridge. The most
delicious oatmeal porridge I have prepared in the summer, when I added
there fresh strawberries and honey from the apiary. Before steaming
millet always rinse it with boiling water and then several times with
cold water, otherwise the porridge will turn bitter.
A lunch
In
the morning we load meat or fish, vegetables (frozen are acceptable),
cereals in the steamer, pour the necessary amount of water and switch
the steamer on. While you wash, dress, do a make-up, the food is
prepared. If you have 20-30 minutes, it is better to choose fish and
vegetables - they are preparing in 20 minutes. If you have more time
choose meat. Poultry prepares in 40 minutes and I cook red meat 50
minutes. And note that it is preparing itself, without any human
intervention. Then put it all in a special utensil or thermos, grab
some fresh vegetables and a healthy lunch at the job time is ready!
If
the taste of steamed food seems insipid, you can experiment with
spices. Red and black pepper, curry, ginger powder, herbs. The choice
in modern shops or even at your own garden allows to create an endless
number of flavor combinations. And again the time is wasted minimally.
As you do not go in a store or a cafe for a lunch.
If you have absolutely no time, cook a little more porridge beforehand, add the fresh vegetables and take it all in the office.
Snacks
Fruits
and dried fruits are a wonderful snack. Those who have never tried
drinking an office tea with dates, nuts, raisins, prunes lose a lot.
Fruits activate the metabolism, improve mood, and most importantly,
they can be eaten very often. Apples, persimmons, bananas, pears,
pomegranates, grapefruit - the choice is great and wonderful.
The
same fruit can be added to the natural yogurt and kefir, add a few
tablespoons of oat bran - and ten minutes later a useful for the beauty
and a stomach lunch is ready. A cottage cheese is good with honey,
muesli can be poured with milk or juice. There is plenty room for
imagination.
By the way, you can eat so 5-6 times per day, with
2-2,5 hour breaks, as nutritionists usually recommend. Then you will
not need to feed your body with fast-food, and on getting home there
will be no temptation to grab the food and eat up everything that is in
the refrigerator.
I have been writing articles for more than two years. But accept the
articles about right lifestyle, correct food and fitness I also keen on
other topics. My last work is business card reader. You can find plenty of useful information about IRIS business card reader on this site.
