Why do this?

DO WORK! It's a saying used to motivate people, particularly at the gym, or in my case, at CrossFit.



DO EAT! In my experience, when people work out they are afraid to eat. In reality, it's not the case. It's more that they don't know what to eat. It's ok to eat. In fact, when you're working out, you HAVE to eat!



Over two years ago, I got fed up with how I looked and felt so I decided to embark on a "lifestyle change" (I refuse to say diet). That included exercise and eating right. Over the years, I have learned a lot about nutrition, what to eat and what not to eat. By no means do I claim to be a nutritional expert. I'm just some schmo that's learned from reading and speaking with people that are smarter than me.



That being said, I've developed various recipes using natural and organic ingredients that were not only lower in calories and tasted great, but are also good for you!



CrossFit is supposed to be hard, eating right shouldn't be! So work hard and DO EAT!!

Sriracha Bok Choy - 30 Calories

Every so often I get in a rut eating the same vegetables day in and day out and I was trying to figure out how to mix things up abit. While I was in the grocery store, I saw bok choy and figured "what the hell" and bought it.
3 Stalks of bok choy
1/4 Cup vegetable broth
1 Tablespoon of low sodium soy sauce
2 Teaspoons of Sriracha chili sauce
Crushed red pepper flakes

Spray a nonstick pan with olive oil from the misto and heat the pan on high. Cut the bok choy diagonally in 1/2 or 1 inch strips. Sauté the bok choy for a few minutes then add the vegetable broth, continue to sauté for 2 minutes then add the soy sauce, Sriracha, and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook until tender then serve.
Serves 1
