veggies on egg/meat days?

You can mix in any green veggies (or red or yellow peppers, onions, garlic, etc.) to make the egg white & meat more palatable. and you can cook them seperately and then mix to eat.  I typically did a salad with red peppers, boiled the egg whites and chopped and then browned the meat and sprinkled it over the top - dressed with my 1 tsp EVOO and balsamic vinegar.

 

Green veggies are always fine on RFLB whenever you are having a meal - watch the carrots and tomatoes and avacado on RFLB though.  Try not to have any before your first real meal of the day after your lunchtime exercise though.

Oh thank you, that's a great relief! I toughed it out the past two days thinking they were supposed to be zero carb or something - but I wasn't sure I could manage doing it when the egg-meat meals came up again! As long as I can add veggies to any of those meat meals I know I'll be fine. Don't need carrots or tomatoes or avocados.

I notice many people have trouble with the egg-meat dish. Personally it's the tuna that bothers me the most. I can manage one meal of it, but no more than once a month, which doesn't work with RFLB obviously. I therefore use canned or fresh salmon instead, or another fresh fish cooked and cold.
