Lyndi Cohen's day on a plate
Her no-nonsense approach to nutrition.
We chat to Lyndi Cohen aka The Nude Nutritionist about her daily eats.
Breakfast
My day starts with a homemade cappuccino with no sweetener. After my morning workout, I share a large green juice with my husband. Later on, around mid-morning, I have a breakfast, which is usually a small teacup of plain Greek yoghurt with homemade muesli and seeds or three scrambled eggs, a quarter of an avocado and some vegies such as mushrooms and tomatoes.
Lunch
Leftover salad and vegetables from dinner the night before with my favourite protein of smoked salmon, half a tin of lentils or chickpeas topped with feta cheese or avocado.
Mid afternoon
If I get hungry in the afternoon, I opt for a handful of nuts, a glass of milk or a piece of fruit.
Dinner
Dinner is usually homemade salmon ceviche or a piece of grilled chicken with a big salad and grilled vegies such as brocollini, corn on the cob or asparagus. I try to eat oily fish at least three times a week. Dinner is also my time to fill up on more vegetables, so I make sure there are plenty on my plate. I always make twice as much dinner for healthy lunches the next day.
Snack
When I crave something sweet, I’ll have either a piece of fresh fruit, two squares of chocolate or a couple of fresh dates.
