Our latest menu features a Fish Taco Bowl, which includes Atlantic cod as an ingredient. Cod is a mild-flavored fish that’s great in all sorts of recipes and also offers an array of health benefits:

▶ Protein - High in lean protein at around 20g per 3oz serving, cod packs the protein without the calories. That same serving is only around 85 calories.

▶ Choline - A nutrient that doesn’t get the spotlight much, choline is a compound that’s used for liver function, brain development, and muscle function. Good news - a 3oz serving of cod contains over half of your daily recommended value of choline.

▶ Low in Mercury - Fish sometimes get villainized in diets due to mercury content, but cod is lower on the ocean’s food chain, making it relatively safe and lower in mercury than lots of other popular fish like tuna and halibut.

▶ B Vitamins - You can get 30% of your daily recommended value of vitamin B12 from a 3oz serving of cod. It’s also a good source of B6 and niacin. Combined, these vitamins help metabolize nutrients, release energy from food, and keep red blood cells and DNA healthy.

▶ Phosphorus - The B vitamins in cod team up with phosphorus to help keep bones and teeth strong, yielding 20% of your daily phosphorus needs per serving.

▶ Selenium - You’ll get 40% of your daily selenium from 3oz of cod. Your body uses this to generate and maintain healthy DNA.

    Amanda is a mother of three (10, 7, and 5) and has been married for 14 years.   My weight loss journey started July 17, 2008, one day after my daughter's first birthday.  Tipping the scales at 235 pounds at 5'3, being an over weight, over tired, out of shape role model no longer appealed to me and I knew it was time for a change.   Three pregnancies later, I had lost a total of 105 pounds.  I had run 2 marathons and dozens of half marathons.  Something was missing.  I was thin, but I wasn't fit.  I wasn't healthy.  I could feel it in my insides.  I was 136 pounds and a size 8.  Something didn't add up.   I got my certification in personal training, nutrition, weight management, and dove into supplementation and whole foods.  90 days later, I gained 10 pounds and lost two pants sizes (8 to a 4). 
     
    Continuing on this path, all of my clients wanted to know how I was doing it.  I always dreamed of creating a business that truly added value to people and improved their health.  My husband, Grant, and I decided it was time to take that leap.

    December 9, 2016, Simply Prepped Meals was born.  Based around the mission of providing whole food based nutrition to people's doorsteps, we set out to create a new idea that fast food didn't have to be expensive or bad for you.   Six months later, we built our permanent location in Cynthiana, IN.  Then, January 2, 2018, we entered into a partnership with the YMCA of Southern Indiana to continue spreading the word of meal prep and eating with purpose. 

    Amanda coaches individually as well as continues to drive their business.  Any questions about personal coaching can be directed to her at amanda@simplypreppedmeals.com
