I've been using variations on the following smoothie recipe for years. Works great for nutrition, energy, and is really easy to make.
As an added bonus, for focused work, it's really easy to sip while coding and doesn't require those flow-busting lunch or snack breaks.
1 can coconut milk/cream (thick) - 920 calories
1 c plain coconut milk - 45 calories
1 banana - 105 calories
1 c blueberries - 85 calories
2 c plain yogurt - 300 calories
2x scoop whey protein - 220 calories
2x serving 100% baking chocolate - 160 calories
2c spinach - 14 calories
2-3 tomato - ~60 calories
Total: 1909 calories
- exhilaration 10y agoSo that (and probably water) is all you'd eat and drink in a single day?
- pugio 10y agoSometimes. I usually have 3-4 eggs in butter along with some more veggies. If I'm active, then a handful of nuts or two. Occasionally (due to cost) some grass fed ground beef stir fried in avocado oil. The smoothie counts for breakfast and lunch. The eggs, for dinner, take ~5 minutes to make. All simple, easy, healthy foods.

- jlebrech 10y agobut what about flow busting toilet breaks?
- pugio 10y agoYMMV. One could argue that's just compounded flow ;) My body conveniently schedules those breaks at the very ends of the day. Rarely an issue.

- Nursie 10y agoDifferent strokes for different folks but 'flow busting' is exactly the point of lunch breaks, to get you away from your screen and desk for a while. There's no virtue in overworking.
- pugio 10y agoBreaks are good, yes, but I prefer to decide on them based on the rhythms of my work, not the demands of my belly. I still take breaks, but when _I_ want to.
