Personalized meals made healthy and flavorful in the Basin
MIDLAND, Texas (KMID/KPEJ) – Preparing healthy meals to eat throughout the week can be time-consuming and tiresome, but one local business in the Basin has the community covered.
'You got to bring in calories to be able to support your life and your activity on the day-to-day basis, and I think that's what nutrition does, is that it balances out all the work that you do, all the hard work in the gym all the hard work you do throughout the day to make sure that your body is fueled but its not storing those extra calories in there,' said Kenneth Woods, with Live Great Nutrition, in Midland.
Kenneth also said, having the proper foods can completely change a journey to health.
'What I found through nutrition is that its not neccessarily eating a minimum, its eating enough to sustain,' Woods said. 'That's what we really focus on is making sure that you get quality foods in without overeating. The thing that I love about my meal prep is that we take your favorite foods and we just basically make the healthy so like we still have pastas we still have rice's, we still use dairy, but we just kind of change it around. So, instead of getting excess number of empty calories you're getting nutrition from the calories that you are eating, so it makes eating a little bit more fun.'
Woods said they customize the meals for the clients and make sure that every meal is full of nutrition and flavor.
'We focus on flavor first and then we make sure that the notional value matches that flavor,' he said. 'A lot of our meals are more heavily focused on the proteins, so that you're getting in a lot of nutrients your not taking in a lot of calories, and then we try to add in that flavor with the extra calories. Your carbohydrates might be a little bit lower, your fats might be in there a little bit, but we really focus on that protein first, so that your still getting that nutrition.'
Woods said they only cook to order, and release a menu for clients every Wednesday. Every week there are six different items clients can choose from.
Meals are delivered on Sundays at no extra cost. To find out more you can check out their Instagram page @live_great_nutrition.
