Nutrition Plan
This plan provides:
Calories: ~2500
Protein: ~190g
Carbs: ~124g (slow-digesting carbs)
Fats: ~130g (healthy fats)
Slow-Carb Substitutes for Quinoa
1. Sweet Potatoes:
1 cup cooked: ~180 calories, 4g protein, 41g carbs, 0g fat.
Great for a nutrient-dense, sweet-flavored option rich in
beta-carotene and fiber.
2. Brown Rice:
1 cup cooked: ~215 calories, 5g protein, 45g carbs, 1g fat.
A classic slow-digesting carb option with mild flavor.
3. Farro:
1 cup cooked: ~200 calories, 7g protein, 43g carbs, 1g fat.
Chewy, nutty grain high in fiber and protein.
4. Lentils:
1 cup cooked: ~230 calories, 18g protein, 40g carbs, 1g fat.
Adds extra protein and fiber to your meal, making it great
for a balanced plate.
5. Barley:
1 cup cooked: ~190 calories, 4g protein, 44g carbs, 0g fat.
A hearty, filling grain with a chewy texture.
6. Cauliflower Rice (Low-Carb Option):
1 cup cooked: ~25 calories, 2g protein, 5g carbs, 0g fat.
Ideal if you want to lower your carb intake further while
still filling your plate.
Best Choice Based on Goals
1. If you want omega-3s (like salmon provides):
Mackerel, trout, or sardines (bonus: sardines are very affordable).
2. If you prefer leaner options:
Tuna, cod, or halibut.
3. If you’re open to non-seafood options:
Chicken thighs or lean beef work well and provide healthy fats (though
lower in omega-3s).
4. For a plant-based alternative:
Tempeh is an excellent choice for protein and fiber.
