TomatoesSELECTION:
• The most popular form of fresh tomatoes should be bright red in color with taught skin and firm to the touch. Tomatoes can also come in a variety of other colors such as yellow, pink, orange, purple, white, or green.
• Avoid tomatoes with wrinkled skins, are squishy, contain soft watery spots, or brown blemishes that leak juice. The peak season for garden fresh tomatoes is from June through September.
FUN FACTS:
• Tomatoes are not only a popular fresh produce item but can also be frozen or canned and make a delicious sun dried snack.
• Spanish explorers introduced the tomato to Europe following Central American expeditions in the 1600s. • Although tomatoes are used as vegetables, from a botanical perspective, they are actually a fruit seed.• Tomatoes first became popular in the U.S. in the 1800s with the influx of Italian immigrants. The tomato’s continued
popularity increased with the invention of pizza in the late 1800s. Pizza was first invented during a visit to Naples by Queen Margarite by a chef using three ingredients to represent the colors of the Italian flag-red, white, and green with red representing the tomato sauce!
STORAGE:
NUTRITION/HEALTH/WELLNESS:
• Tomatoes are high in fiber, low in fat, and low in calories, containing only 18 calories in just less than a cup.• Tomatoes are nutrient-dense in Vitamin C, Vitamin K, potassium and folate which promotes cell and tissue growth and is
especially important for pregnant women.• The nutrients, antioxidants, and vitamins found in tomatoes contribute to heart health and healthy immune systems; skin,
cell function, and the regulation of blood pressure.
• Keep tomatoes at room temperature until they turn completely red and ripen, then refrigerate to prevent spoilage.
• Remove refrigerated tomatoes at least an hour before eating to experience the full flavor of a tomato. Complex compounds in tomatoes that affect their taste and smell are inhibited by cold refrigeration.
• Tomatoes can easily be stored frozen without blanching or peeling. Rinse and dry before placing in airtight zip-top bags. Use a straw to suck out any excess air. When thawed, the skins will peel away easily and the flesh can be used for cooking in all your favorite recipes.

Meat CaseHigh Performance Meal Prep Lunch
Ingredients: 4 servings
• 20 oz. round steak• 14-15 oz. low-sodium canned
chickpeas, drained• 2 ripe avocados, halved, peeled and
pits removed• 3 ripe red tomatoes, quartered
• 1 medium red onion, thinly diced• 1 tbsp. butter• ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar • 2 tsp. cumin• 2 tsp. minced garlic
• ¼ tsp. salt• ¼ tsp. pepper• ¼ tsp, red pepper flakes (optional)• 1 tsp. toasted sesame seeds
(optional)
Directions:
1. Prepare the marinade and dressing by adding the last 7 ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk until well blended or, for simplicity, put the ingredients in a mason jar with a tight fitting lid and shake well to blend.
2. Arrange the round steak in a deep baking dish. Pour half the marinade over the steak and turn the steak to coat all areas. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours. Refrigerate the remaining marinade for use as a dressing as described later in the recipe.
3. Take the round steak from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature for 30 minutes. Remove the steak from the pan and place between 2 sheets of parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
4. Use a meat tenderizer or the bottom of the canned chickpeas to gently pound and flatten the round steak. Flip the meat over and repeat so both sides are tenderized. Use only enough pressure to flatten the round steak because too much force will tear the meat.
5. In a large frying pan melt the butter. Place the meat in the pan and sear each side for one minute. Once the meat has been seared, arrange in a baking dish with the marinade. Place the baking pan in a preheated oven and bake uncovered for 12 minutes. Flip the meat and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 140-145 degrees F. Remove from oven and let the steak cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting.
6. While the steak cools, prepare the avocados, onion, and tomatoes as described in the ingredients list. Place the tomatoes and onion in a mixing bowl and drizzle with half of the remaining dressing and gently toss. In a separate mixing bowl, toss the chick peas with the remaining dressing.

Tips:
Place ¼ of the tomato salad and chick peas into an individual meal prep container as shown in the picture. Top with ½ of an avocado. Slice the round steak against the grain into ½ inch strips and arrange ¼ of the round steak in each container. Refrigerate for a healthy lunch or eat for dinner over the next few days.

Produce StandChicken Stuffed Tomatoes
Directions:
1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl place the first 8 ingredients. Gently toss until well mixed. Cover the stuffing and refrigerate for at least 8 hours to allow the flavors to blend.
2. Rinse the tomatoes and dry off excess water. Cut the tops off of each tomato and set aside. Gently remove the flesh and seeds from the inner part of the tomatoes and discard.
3. Place ¼ of the chicken stuffing into each tomato cavity. Place the top portion of the tomato as a cap on top of the stuffing.
• 12 oz. cooked and chopped boneless chicken• ¼ orange bell pepper, diced• 1 jalapeño pepper with seeds removed, thinly diced• 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar• 2-3 tbsp. olive oil mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro• Dash of salt• Dash of black pepper• 4 medium ripe, red tomatoes

your ... It’s Worth the Trip!
• 1 cup brown rice • 2¼ cups water• 1 cup dried lentils• 1½ cups diced raw celery• 1½ cups sliced carrots (fresh,
unpeeled)• 1 medium to large onion, diced• 1 tsp. salt• 1½ tbsp. dried curry powder• 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 bay leaves• 1-2 dashes of dried red
pepper flakes• 3½-4 cups low-sodium vegetable
broth
1. Begin cooking rice according to package directions.2. In a very large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the celery, onions, carrots, and salt. Sauté until the onions become clear (about five minutes), stirring constantly. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
3. Add the lentils and 3½ cups of vegetable broth, curry, bay leaf, pepper flakes and lentils. Bring to a boil and let boil for one minute. Turn heat down to medium, cover and cook for an additional 20 minutes stirring occasionally. Check for doneness. The lentils should be tender. If not, cook a little bit longer, checking every 5 minutes. Add a bit more broth if needed to prevent the lentils from sticking throughout the cooking process. If more liquid is needed than 4 cups of broth, add 2 tbsp. of water at a time. Once the lentils are soft,
uncover and let the lentils sit for few minutes to absorb some of the extra liquid. Gently stir.
4. Serve by placing ¼ of the rice on a plate topped with ¼ of the lentils. Consider serving alongside sliced fresh cucumbers and tomatoes that have been lightly salted.
Tips:
• Try this recipe with dried split peas, but adjust the water according to the package directions.
• Serve the lentils over a bed of couscous.• This freezes well. So make a larger batch, portion in a
container and freeze for an on-the-go dinner or lunch when life is hectic!
• Add in extra veggies like eggplant and or zucchini.
In popular culture, we often see families sitting down to a nice big dinner with meat as the centerpiece. It’s rare to see a vegetarian meal as a gathering place. We also may
feel pressured to make a meal with meat every night for this reason. But making meals the whole family will love or that fit into your high performance fitness needs doesn’t have to be this involved. There are many vegetarian, even vegan, meals you can make once and have leftovers that will last days, while still getting enough protein and not tasting like it’s a leftover.
Over the past several years there has been a Go Meat Free One Day a Week movement. Substituting plant-based foods for meat can improve heart health and reduce your risk of diabetes. Going meatless doesn’t have to be just on one full day, you can sprinkle it throughout your week and change it so your lunches are meat free or alternate days. This week, try taking one meal where you normally have meat and replace that meat protein with a plant based protein like legumes.
Legumes are a great source of protein and fiber. They’re inexpensive and can be used in a variety of ways like soups, salads, and as a meal’s main source of protein. Lentils, in particular, are made up of over 25% protein and a great source of iron. One cup of lentils contains around 18g of protein which is around 36% of your daily value of recommend protein based on a 2,000 calorie diet. Just remember that with lentils, the fiber is almost as high as the protein, so eating too many of them without being used to a high fiber diet may cause some discomfort. The best place to start is to watch your portion size and spread them out throughout the week.
This meal is quite versatile. Unlike other dried beans, lentils don’t require soaking so they’re a perfect pantry staple that can be made in 20 minutes with minimal effort. The base of lentils and rice can be paired with any side. If it’s grilling season, try it with grilled corn on the cob or a shish kabob of grilled veggies. The spices in the lentils can be mixed up to make them spicy, savory, or add in some stewed tomatoes and curry. You could even use the lentils as a dip, with stalks of celery or cucumber slices as the chip. However you season your lentils, this is an easy beginning of the week meal to make and portion out for your lunches during the week.
