Dinner Made Easy

Updated: Jul 24, 2025

Insert rant about people freaking out and overthinking nutrition.


Great. Glad we got that out of the way.


Dinner is seriously such a simple meal, yet people commonly act like eating and making a healthy dinner is comparable to solving a Rubik's cude, blindfolded, with both hands tied behind your back. 


Stop being so dramatic, people.


Dinner Made Easy:


1. Meat or fish of choice 

2. Rice or potato (or even sourdough bread if you're into the sandwich/burger idea

3. Low calorie sauce and seasonings to flavor

4. Some side of veggies or fruit. Whatever you like.


Bam!


That's about 10-15 minutes tops to whip up and if you don't think it's delicious, that's a personal skill issue. You'll improve, though, with practice.


Adjust serving size based on body composition goals and how much food you've eaten earlier in the day 


If you're trying to lose weight – keep the serving size small.


If you're trying to gain weight – double up the serving size (and consider a nice, tall, stiff, delicious glass of milk on the side....and/or a peanut butter & banana sandwich)


If you're trying to maintain weight – eat a moderate, reasonable serving size. 


Weigh yourself regularly and adjust portion sizes based on how your bodyweight is aligning to your bodyweight goals. 


If you do some long fasting or eat minimally before your dinner, then you'll probably be able to eat a larger dinner. I'm not saying you should or shouldn't fast or eat minimally during the day, but if you do have some preference for that, understand how that effects your dinner serving sizes.


There. That's all I'm gonna write about dinner.


Start doing this 6 nights a week for dinner!


It's so easy, so quick, and so versatile (and tasty).
