Hello!
Welcome to Flexible Dieting Book of
Recipes! This has been in the making for
some time and I am very excited to have it
done for you guys! At GPA, we emphasize
the food is fuel analogy and stress that
exceptional nutrition is necessary to
exceptional results! Over the years I have
been guilty of not making my nutrition
a priority and it resulted in me not even
coming close to the results I wanted with
me or my clients!
This is where the Flexible Dieting Book of Recipes comes in! Not only can you eat
a nutritious diet but you can make it taste great as well! With this recipe book, we
wanted to give you recipes that will help you reach your goals as well as satisfying
your taste buds! The best diet is the one that you can do for the rest of your life and
we want our recipe book to be that tool that helps you along the way!

Testimonials
“All my life I’ve struggled with my relationship
with food and my body. Mostly worrying
about losing weight and being skinny, not
about fueling my body. GPA has taught me
the healthy way to do all of the above and
that fueling your body with what it needs and
teaching it how to be strong are the only ways
to really feel that you are reaching your daily
potential. I’ve seen so much positive progress
mentally and physically and I can’t wait to
continue to grow.”
Perrin Bille
“GPA really enlightened me of the importance
of nutrition and the role it plays not only in
your general health but also in performance
as well! Zach teaches you to understand the
importance of how proper form and mobility
can lead only to success. With GPA’s constant
hard work and research,it is the place I trust
the most in developing a great athlete!”

“I can honestly say that I feel like I am in my
30’s again and its only been 4 weeks! Training
with Zach has really allowed me to realize that
even though I am 72 years old, I can still grow
in my strength, build muscle and feel better
each and every day! Can’t wait to see if I can
get back to feeling like a 20 year old again!”
Doug Houseworth (72 years old)
“GPA has really helped me become a better
athlete! It used to hurt when I’d lift but at GPA
I learned the proper technique that allows me
to feel great when I’m lifting! My bench press
5 rep max has jumped by 30lbs in just the first
month! I can’t wait to see where I’ll be by the
beginning of next season! I recommend all
athletes who want to be at an elite level to join
us! You will only see great results!”
Tyreke Hubbard, High School Junior, All
County High School Running Back
“The first day I worked out with GPA was a big
wake up call. I was definitely not in the shape
I wanted to be in. One of my main goals was
to put on muscle mass, which I’ve struggled
with for the longest time. I have never been
able to put on significant amounts of muscle
but since I’ve been working with GPA, I have
went from 180 to 195 in 8 weeks while getting
significantly leaner as well! I feel like a new
person! Zach has taught me how to be a
healthier, more confident individual in just a
couple of weeks.”

Let’s get started...
Below are a few hints and tips to help you along the way.
We recommend you spare a few minutes to read this
before you get cooking.
COOKING WITH FATS AND OILS
For cooking and frying at high temperatures, coconut oil
is safe to use, as it remains stable at higher temperatures.
In other words, unlike many other oils and fats, it won’t
become damaged when heated above a certain
temperature. When oils become damaged, they turn
rancid, which can be damaging to your body. Coconut
oil is high in lauric acid, a fatty acid that is anti-fungal,
anti-bacterial and anti-viral.
For salads, use cold pressed extra virgin olive oils, sesame or peanut oils. There are
also a variety of fats and oils that should be avoided completely. All hydrogenated
and partially hydrogenated oils are bad for you and can contribute to a range of
serious health problems such as cancer, heart disease and immune dysfunction.
COCONUT FLOUR
A gluten free alternative to normal flour. This is a
versatile ingredient, which can be used in baking
and cooking. Also makes great pancakes!
WHERE TO BUY
Coconut Oil. From $13.00 for a 16oz pot on Amazon
Coconut Flour. From $13.00 for a 3lb bag on Amazon

FLAXSEED
Flaxseed is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and fibre.
It is a great ingredient to use in cooking and baking,
e.g. spelt bread, cakes, pizzas (yes, healthy ones!),
mixed in with nut butter or humous dips, added to
pancake mixes, sprinkled over cereals or salads or
added to smoothies.
It’s best to grind the flaxseed up in a coffee grinder first, as it is not absorbed by
the body if left whole. If you mix flaxseed with water and leave to stand for 10
minutes, it develops a sticky coating, which makes it a great egg substitute in
baking (as do chia seeds). Always store your flaxseed in the fridge in an airtight
container.
STORECUPBOARD SAVIORS
There are plenty of simple ways to make your food taste
good. Why not keep your cupboards stocked up with
a handy supply of spices and rubs, which are generally
very cheap to buy, simple to use, and a much healthier
alternative to the artificial flavorings, additives and
sugars found in many of the processed sauces available.
Consider replacing cheap, processed table salt (which is
full of chemicals, and some brands even contain sugar!)
with a good quality organic sea salt or Himalayan pink salt. This salt contains many
beneficial minerals and can help balance electrolytes, eliminate toxins and support
nutrient absorption.
WHERE TO BUY

A LITTLE SWEETNESS
Sugar gets a lot of bad press these days due to the
negative effects it can have on your health. For example,
excessive consumption suppresses the immune system
and reduces insulin sensitivity.
However, we believe it is important to consider the for and against, and not just
react to what we see in the news. If you lead a healthy lifestyle, eat a balanced,
varied diet, and enjoy moderate regular exercise, then there really shouldn’t be
cause for panic.
Within the huge category that sugar spans, are a range of good and bad food
choices. If, for example, you cut out all fruit for the rest of your life (because fruit
contains sugar), you might well miss out on some key nutrients. Plus you might
feel deprived.
Our advice to you is that it is your choice if you consume sugar and/or sugar
alternatives. But what is probably more important is to consider that worrying
about the matter could be equally bad or even worse for your health. Instead, why
not try to look at sugar and sugar alternatives as a ‘treat’ rather than a necessity...
something to really savour and enjoy every once in a while (without the guilt!!).
In some of our recipes we have used natural sweeteners such as Stevia. Many
research studies have been conducted on the safety of these products and while no
definite links have been made to any negative health effects, overall the evidence
for and against it is still inconclusive. If you’d prefer to swap the sweeteners in our
recipes with something else then feel free to do so. Home made apple sauce, raisins
and bananas can add enough sweetness to a variety of baking recipes.
Note: There are several forms of Stevia available - a very light powdery texture, and
a more granulated/grainy texture. In all of our recipes, we have used the granulated
version. We recommend you use the same, so that the ingredient weight is
accurate.
WHERE TO BUY

CHICKEN STOCK
Chicken stock is quick to make and so good for you!
Simply remove the meat from a roasted chicken and
place the carcass in a large pan full of water (enough to
cover the chicken). Season well with salt and pepper and
add a bay leaf. Simmer for 2 hours. Remove from heat
and allow to cool completely, then drain the liquid from
the carcass. Discard carcass and bay leaf. The stock can
be frozen or kept in the fridge for several days.
VEGETABLE STOCK
Add a drop of olive oil to a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add a large diced
white onion, a sliced leek, and chopped carrot and sweat for 2-3 minutes. Add
enough cold water to cover the vegetables and turn up the heat to high. Add some
finely chopped garlic, one stick of chopped celery, several chopped tomatoes, 1 tsp
dried parsley, half a tsp of black pepper, half a tsp salt, 1 tsp dried fennel, a sprig of
fresh or 1 tsp dried rosemary.
Stir well, bring to the boil, cover, then reduce to a simmer for 25 minutes. Pour the
stock through a sieve. Discard the vegetable pieces or re-use. The liquid stock can
be stored in the fridge for up to three days or frozen in batches for future use.

Avoid leaving the chicken to marinate for
too long, as the lime juice will break down
too much of the tissue.
Remove from fridge and thread several
chicken pieces onto each skewer. Place the
chicken on the barbecue or in the oven
and turn regularly until cooked through
(around 20 minutes).
Heat the oil in a large skillet over a
medium heat. Add the bell-pepper, onion
and remaining garlic to the skillet. Cook
for around five minutes or until tender,
stirring regularly. Sprinkle with cumin, salt
and pepper.
Serve the fajita mix topped with the
chicken, with a side salad.

Warming stew
1 tbsp ghee
1 small white onion, finely chopped
1lb 14oz lean casserole beef / tofu*
handful button mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 medium sized carrots, peeled
and chopped
half a swede, diced
2¼ cups all purpose potatoes,
peeled and chopped
1 organic stock cube dissolved in
1 cup boiling water
sprig fresh rosemary
1 tbsp tomato purée
salt and pepper to season
SERVES 4
* Note: Some meat free alternatives contain
gluten and/or MSG. Please check the label
before you buy!
In a large saucepan, melt the ghee over a
medium heat. Add the onion, and sauté
gently until soft. Transfer to a separate
plate.
Add the beef, if using, to the saucepan
and brown on all sides (approximately
3-5 minutes). If using tofu, cook gently for
around 4-5 minutes until soft. Transfer to a
separate plate.
Add the mushrooms to the saucepan and
cook for 3-5 minutes until soft. Add the
garlic and cook for a further 2 minutes,
stirring continuously.
Return the beef /tofu and onions back into
the saucepan. Stir in the carrots, swede
and potatoes and add the stock liquid.
There should be enough liquid in the pan
to cook the vegetables, although they
needn’t be completely covered.
Add the rosemary and tomato purée and
season well. Cover and simmer for up to
two hours (if using beef) or 45 minutes
if using tofu. Top up with fresh water if
necessary. As the potatoes cook, they will
thicken up the sauce.

Bacon & blue
cheese burgers
26.5 oz extra lean ground beef (or
use a vegetarian alternative*)
1 small white onion, chopped finely
1 medium free range egg
1 tsp brown mustard seeds
salt and pepper to season
2 tsps ghee or organic butter
5 rashers unsmoked back bacon (or
use a vegetarian bacon*), cut
into small pieces
cup blue marble/maytag blue
cheese (or use a low fat hard
cheese), cut into 5 strips
MAKES 5 BURGERS
* Note: Some meat free alternatives contain
gluten and/or MSG. Please check the label
before you buy!
In a large bowl, mash the beef up with
your hands to break it up. Add the onion,
egg, mustard seeds and salt and pepper
and mix together thoroughly.
Melt half of the ghee / butter in a non
stick frying pan. Add the bacon and fry
until crispy. Remove from pan from heat.
Form the beef mixture into 10 disc shapes.
Place a slice of cheese on 5 of the discs.
Add the bacon pieces (using it all up).
Use the other 5 discs as a ‘lid’, covering
the cheese and bacon. Seal the edges well
to prevent the cheese escaping when you
cook the burgers.
Return the frying pan to the heat and add
the remaining ghee / butter. Place the
patties in the pan and cook for 4-5
minutes then turn over and repeat.
If you like your burgers ‘well done’,
finish cooking them under a medium
grill for 2-3 minutes.
