Clean Eating For Beginners Complete Guide | Never "diet" again

 Clean Eating does not have to be complicated. Today, I want to show you what an easy day of eating clean and healthy can look like simple whole-food recipes with everyday ingredients that you can find at any grocery store and less than one hour of standing in the kitchen. Exactly like my six-week clean eating Mastery program. But more about that at the end of the video. The simplest way to make a wholesome, healthy breakfast is to take one minute the night before to prepare it. Yes, one minute, that's what it takes to make overnight oats. And it's super simple, absolutely delicious the next day, and just a grab-and-go breakfast. So let me show you how to make it. 

You must add three-quarters of a cup of old-fashioned rolled oats to a sealable container. Also, add three-quarters of a cup of your favorite milk, any milk works, plant milk, cow milk, or whatever you love, and then place it in the fridge overnight. The next morning, you can top it with some berries, drizzle a little maple syrup, and enjoy it. Now, if you work outside the home, you also have lunch the night before. But even when working from home, it's always a good idea to have lunch ready in the fridge because we grab it and eat it and ensure we eat clean and healthy. And don't grab unhealthy snacks because we're ravenous and don't want to prepare anything for us. Let's prepare lunch for tomorrow. Pull out your instant pot to cook Samak quinoa, or check out my guide on how to cook quinoa on the stove. 

Add one cup of quinoa and one cup of water to the Instant Pot because that's the minimum necessary to get it to pressure, and then place a trivet into the pot and add two large fridge cold eggs to it. We will only need one egg for the lunch bowl, but since I'm cooking double the amount of quinoa, I might as well have wanother egg and have everything ready for a second lunch bowl for another day. I love that I can cook the quinoa and hard-boiled eggs simultaneously in the Instant Pot, and it only takes one minute of high pressure plus full natural pressure release. Now, let's prep the veggies. Get a Lebanese cucumber, a carrot, a handful of grape or cherry tomatoes, and a small handful of parsley. Then peel the carrot and then Julian or grated cut off the ends of your Lebanese cucumber and cut it into slices. And lastly, finally, chop your parsley and set all of this aside. 

Now it's time to prepare your dressing, but be vigilant of your instant pot so you don't experience the moment natural pressure release is over, or else your eggs will overcook. You want to ensure that as soon as the safety pin drops, you want to remove those eggs and put them in the ice bath to stop them from cooking. For the dressing, you want to add the juice of half a lemon, one tablespoon of olive oil, and sea salt and pepper to taste to a sealable jar and then shake it until well combined. Your quinoa and eggs are ready. Remove the eggs immediately. 

Add them to the ice bath after the safety pin drops to stop the eggs from cooking further. Now it's time to assemble your lunch bowl and half of the quinoa you cooked into a sealable container. Then top it with your Julian carrot, your sliced cucumber, your grape tomatoes, and lastly, your hard-boiled egg. Then seal it, and oh wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, I forgot the chopped parsley. It's only complete with the parsley. Now seal it and place it in the fridge together with a dressing. Pull that over your lunch bowl only seconds before you dive in, or else your cucumber and veggies will become all soggy. So do that the second you're ready to eat your lunch. Now for dinner. Let's keep it simple but still super, super delicious. Get to skinless, boneless chicken thighs and season the heck out of them. Here, I have half a teaspoon of paprika, half a teaspoon of oregano, a quarter teaspoon of chili powder, half a teaspoon of sizzle, and a little black pepper. Add the spices to both sides of your chicken thighs and then set them aside. Now, get a small sweet potato, peel it, and cut it into about half-inch slices. Ensure they are not much thicker than that, or they won't cook through. 

Now preheat a large pan over medium heat, and once it's really hot, add a splash of avocado oil to it and place both your chicken thighs and sweet potato slices into the sizzling oil and brown for five minutes on one side and five minutes on the other before you add a splash of water to the pan to the glaze the bottom and also add a handful of green asparagus and cover the pan with a lid reduce the heat to low and let this all steam for approximately 20 minutes or until the sweet potato is tender. We ate potato slices and steamed asparagus when you played with your chickens. Remember to pull the delicious pan juices over everything; it's the best part. And there you have it, a full day of eating a clean breakfast took one minute to prepare lunch, 15 to 20 minutes, and dinner 40 minutes, but of those 40 minutes, you didn't have to do anything for 20 Because everything was steaming, right? 

So if this day looks and sounds delicious to you, and you want to make clean eating part of your lifestyle, the best way to change your eating habits is to commit to that change for at least six weeks. That way, you internalize it, becoming a routine and somewhat automatic daily decision. After six weeks of eating clean and healthy, you will feel amazing, and you can't even imagine eating junk food and processed food regularly ever again if you are all finally committed to turning your life around.
