Eat This ...Not That

One of my favorite articles in Men's Health Magazine is the Eat This Not That. The offer healthy alteratives to dining out at certain locations in comparison to the typical choices made.

While at one of my favorite local eateries last night, Salsa Salsa (highly recommended) I thought why not apply this principle to the paleo diet.

EAT THIS:






Veggie Taco Salad
From the menu: (grilled vegetables, mixed summer greens, corn chips, brown rice, black beans, jack cheese, salsa fresca, guacamole & a cilantro-lime vinaigrette)

Note: This item takes some modifying. We know you don't like to be that annoying customer that says take this out, take this out, add this.... but for this challenge get used to it. So on this item take out the corn chips , brown rice, and jack cheese. Leave the beans if your primary goal is not weight loss. Tell them to load up on the guac . And most importantly we need to add some protein to this meal, so add your meat of choice. Add either beef, chicken, or shrimp.

NOT THAT:



SUPER ORIGINAL BURRITOS


All burritos are prepared with brown rice, black beans, jack and cheddar cheeses and salsa fresca wrapped with a warm flour tortilla. Super is with sour cream and guacamole.



This would be my weapon of choice if I were going for a cheat meal, with meat of course. This little sucker might seem healthy but the carbohydrate content of this meal is through the roof.

PS: Most of you guys are doing a goo djob posting your meals but some are still not. It does not take too much time and its for your benefit that you do so. So make sure you keep posting.
I will make sure to get some feedback out by this weekend on meals posted so far.
