This is an easy athlete dinner that you can make in under 15 minutes. It's not fancy, it's not elaborate, but it's going to give you athletes everything you need. Everything here is from Trader Joe's, and I say that it's an athlete meal because it has the right ratio of carbs to fats to protein that your body needs to keep itself healthy, to keep itself fueled, to keep itself being able to perform at a high level. Now we've got this beef sirloin roast that you just need to heat up, got some flatbread, great carbs, and we've got some color. I would also throw in a fresh fruit here. We want to make sure you're getting multiple colors in your meal. This is going to give you vitamins and minerals and the nutrients your body needs to keep itself healthy. I actually just made a full guide that's called 15 Minute Athlete Meals for Busy Parents. If you want it, comment guide below and we'll send you the link to it.
