Health Made Simple for Athletes, Day 25

We're heading into the weekend, and I'm nearly done with Health Made Simple — the four-week meal plan from No Meat Athlete! I have plans to deviate from the plan quite a bit over the weekend (for Imbolc and Super Bowl) so I should probably just consider myself done. But I'll be back on Monday with a weekend recap anyway!
Until then, here's what I ate on Thursday, Day 25. The morning started as so many others do — a Larabar, a run (5 miles), and a bowl of post-run white rice. I'm usually eating that pre-run Larabar in the bathroom while getting ready because I'm classy and I have no shame.

Breakfast was another Sid's Superfood Shake (banana, hemp/flax/chia seed, wheatgrass, spirulina, dulse, Complement protein powder). And morning snack was a fruit bowl.

For lunch, I had my leftover BBQ Bella with Tahini Chickpea Slaw sandwich-style on whole wheat toast with a side of Air-fried Fries.

Afternoon snack was crackers with maple peanut butter (forgot to take a pic!), and dinner was my very favorite recipe on the plan so far — Butternut Squash Mac!!! 

I've made a lot of squash mac in my day, but this Health Made Simple version is the very best. It calls for roasted onions, shallot, and garlic to be mixed in with the roasted squash and blended cashews, and that really makes a difference. I remember loving this when I did Health Made Simple the last time (back in Oct 2018). I'm so glad I have this recipe to come back to again and again!
