As bodybuilders, it is important all our nutritional needs are met on a daily basis. For many, this often means the same old chicken and rice, potatoes and steak, stored in containers and eaten whenever one's schedule demands the next 2-3 hourly feeding.
As dull and boring as this may sound, it is reality for bodybuilders around the world. However, it does not need to be so. With a little imagination and flair, the most drab meals can be transformed into masterful creations, which taste great and look fantastic.
With a few simple ingredients, and a sense of adventure, one can eat like a king, or queen, every day. All it takes is some planning and the right guidance. But where to look for such guidance? Look no further. Fortunately, Bodybuilding.com has secured the expertise of two of the best fitness chefs in the business, Alejandro Quiroga and Joe DiAngelo.
These men, who also happen to be bodybuilders and personal trainers, spend much of their time preparing some of the most magnificent dishes seen in the New York area.
Today, they have for us grilled chicken asparagus rolls with pea puree. Not only does this meal look and taste great, but it is also perfect for the bodybuilder; it is high in protein and low in fat. Enjoy!
