Continuing on with my popular healthy eating tips series about what you best options are when dining out and wanting to stick with you healthy eating plan and I’m going to give you my tips for one of my favourite places to eat – the pub.
Now, the common thought will be that when you’re eating out at a pub you’re not there to eat healthy considering that you’re probably washing your meal down with a few wines or schooners.
But think of this, if you are drinking, and who am I to tell you not to because I love a cold beer, you may want to think about what you’re going to eat.
Why? Remember you’ve got to stick to your number of cheat meals if you want to keep on seeing progress with your fat loss mission.
So I’m going to give you the inside mail of what I’d recommend going off a pub menu from a pub in Alexandria where I’ve enjoyed a few feeds over the years – the Parkview in Alexandria. I had my bucks day there last year and they do a good feed.
To Share:
Starting with their ‘to share’ menu – the only thing that really would keep you on track here would be the Anti Pasto plate (just go easy on the salami and chorizo and hold the bread) or the grazing plate but ask to swap the fried somosas and spring rolls for extra prawns or squid.
Mains:
The Chick Pea and Fetta salad or Thai Beef salad are going to be very smart options here as would be the case at any pub.
If you’re looking for something hot try the steak and resist the option of fries to go with the vegetables and roast potatoes instead.
If you like the seafood option, the Atlantic Salmon and veggies or the Basil and Parmesan crusted Barramundi would go down well.
Sure, it’s always tempting to go for the works burger and fries option with your cold drinks but remember it’ll count as 2 cheat meals if you’re drinking as well so make sure you have enough cheat meals saved up to use for that week.
If you can eat healthy in a pub then you can eat healthy anywhere right? So no more excuses that you can’t always stay on track with your healthy eating plan!
