Progress Report:
1. We learned that many meals we were making and finding all involved the use of chicken, since it is lean and high in protein. However we also realized that constantly eating chicken could get someone sick of it quickly. Therefore we decided to switch to a different protein option in this meal that was also lean and healthy.
2. Towards the end of our 20 time we feel that eating healthier and leaner meals have began to benefit us in our training. We have been losing a little bit of weight but also increasing in our lifts. We believe that some of this has to do with the healthier meals we have been eating.
3.One problem we faced was that we found it was harder and harder to find time to discover and try out new recipes. We are going to try to solve this problem by designating one day a week to creating a new meal for our blog.
4. Our next step for our 20 time is to wrap up our recipe book with one or two more meals and then combining all of our blogs into one large collection of recipes.
5. As football season is beginning, we can help our teammates by introducing them to our blog and having them eat healthier meals in order to prepare them for the upcoming season.

This is a great idea! Making this cook book can be very influential to athletes. Will you distribute it to your fellow football players? Maybe include all sports teams. Good luck with the rest of your recipes.
ReplyDeleteSeeing as my family (me not included) is vegetarian, I won't be able to go ahead with this kind of food just yet. That being said, it looks great, and I'm glad that you have a practical example to show off something both nutritious and tasty. I will probably go ahead and make things like this when I begin my college life and onward. I really want to see that whole recipe book when you have it ready.
