This is a great Sunday recipe and it’s fairly simple. Because it allows to substitute some of the ingredients, it also gives room for creativity. Why not use lentils instead of rice? Or minced meat? Or for meat lovers ham instead of oats? Depending on the training load, athletes need to adjust portions size and also add extra side dished o meet their needs.

On a hard train day, add some bread or potatoes for extra carbs, or enjoy a high carb dessert.
