QUICK, TASTY, HEALTHY MEAL PREPS | 5 Meal Ideas for Busy People | Doctor Mike

hey guys I'm no master chef but I'm in a rush in my daily life so I need quick healthy easy meal options to make during the day so let's get some ingredients I got my new school shopping list right here no more pen and paper [Music] I'm no Gordon Ramsay when it comes to being in the kitchen but I do know a thing or two about nutrition these are five quick easy and nutritious meals that you can make at home when you're on the go enter chef dr. Mac let's start with my favorite dish I like to call this bad boy the underdog because most people think sardines ill know first of all sardines are delicious second of all they're an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids that's the stuff that you need to develop a healthy brain healthy eyes we've seen a lot of studies show that people who consume fish on a regular basis not only are smarter but they also sleep better below that you have guacamole that has hosaka kados in it it has tomatoes as onions rich in vegetables all on top of this crisp bread which has sunflower seeds flax seeds sesame seeds it's rich in whole grains has 3 grams of fiber 3 grams of protein this is a killer nutritious snack that you can really eat on the go don't mind the sardine [Music] up next we have something that I munched on all the time in college the dorm room special it's really simple it's not elegant but it really does the trick oven roasted turkey breast followed by my favorite cheese Munster cheese and then you have two slices of cucumbers a lot of nutrition packed into this little bad boy here you have proteins from the cheese and the turkey and then you have antioxidants and polyphenols from the cucumbers cucumbers contain lignans and they have a strong history of research in connection with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease as well as some cancers either and who doesn't like themselves a little extra crunch [Music] the antioxidant one-two punch that's right the reason why I call this antioxidant one-two punch is because green apples my favorite kind of apples yes Granny Smith have a ton of antioxidants as well as polyphenols so the saying an apple a day keeps your doctor ways partially true because they do have a host of health benefits they also are rich in fiber which keeps you fuller longer it also helps with sugar management then you have on the side as a little dipping portion of cottage cheese rich in protein calcium b12 all essential nutrients to keep your body going then you finally top it off with a little bit of extra flavor from cinnamon which is zero calories that's right zero calories and cinnamon also loaded in antioxidants sets of two in the one-two punch cinnamon has shown promise in preventing issues with your heart it's also shown to help better manage sugar within your body whether you're diabetic or not diabetic antioxidant one-two punch tastes great and low calorie [Music] the bear please sir yep I named this after my puppy bear and what this is is just basic Greek yogurt mixed with some multigrain gluten-free granola I added a couple of walnuts for myself because I love walnuts and then finish off with a little drizzle of honey Greek yogurt rich in protein and a great source of probiotics yeah probiotics is all that bacteria that lives with inside your gut that helps you to have healthy digestion helps you to go to the bathroom more regularly normal stools we've seen a lot of benefits from people eating yogurt the multigrain granola is great because the one that I buy has actually nine different seeds and nuts in it you're getting a lot of fiber and getting a lot of nutrients packed in and that crunch is unbelievable I think that yogurt on its own especially plain yogurt and granola this is kind of tasteless so what I do is I take my favorite I guess food topping if you call it and I drizzle a little bit of honey on the top give it a ton of flavor because honey is rich in sugar but honey is also rich in polyphenols antioxidants and we've seen some promising studies talking about the favorable effect on cholesterol so this is a meal that I love and bear loves [Music] last and least it may not be the most adult one of these five but it's certainly a favorite of mine childhood peanut butter and jelly peanut butter really gets a bad rap because it's high in fat it has some saturated fats and in small amounts saturated fats are not bad for you and it's rich in unsaturated fats which are also good for you peanut butter is also a great way for people who are vegetarian or vegan to get their protein up when selecting the bread for your PB&amp;amp;J make sure it's one that has whole grain and whole wheat in the first two ingredients to make sure it's the healthiest type of bread that you can get rich in fiber if you're gonna choose a jam make sure it's a high-quality jam not just jam that's packed with a ton of sugar make sure it's made with real fruit clearly you don't need to put in a lot of effort to make really quick and nutritious foods I mean most of these here have three or four ingredients at most and maybe they took me five minutes to make as always guys stay happy and healthy look I am no Bobby Flay look I am no Gordon Ramsay when it comes to cooking but I do know a little thing about nutrition a little thing let's break down each one how does it have that become anything if you like this nutrition video please give it a like and a share if you want to see
