Throughout the year, I typically eat five times a day with a diet along these lines:

Meal 1: Eggs, Smoked Salmon, Oats
Meal 2: Chicken and Rice
Meal 3: Chicken and Rice
Meal 4: Chicken and Rice
Meal 5: Whey, Peanut Butter, Oats

For meals 2 to 4, what I’ll do is batch cook a load of chicken and then divide it up into the necessary portions. Today’s recipe will be based off a batch cook of 500g chicken (or tofu for vegetarians & vegans) for three meals of the day.
