Have you ever eaten a super healthy meal and then later sabotaged yourself by BINGING or GRAZING on a bunch of junk? If this sounds familiar, read on…
Having meals that are BORING or too HEALTHY leaves you unsatisfied & WANTING MORE….so that’s why we start BINGING & GRAZING.
You can FIX THIS by adding more enjoyment to mealtime…a.k.a. FUN UP YOUR MEALS.
You gotta be BOTH physically full + MENTALLY satisfied from a meal to truly feel at peace with food.
FOUR WAYS TO FUN UP YOUR MEALS:
👉ASK YOURSELF what you actually WANT to eat. This is the missing piece of all “diets.” It’s the most MAGICAL thing you can do for a healthy relationship w/ food.
👉Plan meals w/ a THEME. Themes make healthy eating creative & fun. Examples HERE.
👉Add a feel-good INGREDIENT. Just one simple ingredient can make a boring meal more satisfying. Examples: A few sweet potato fries, crushed tortilla chips in a salad, a drizzle of creamy dressing, a dollop of guacamole, a sprinkle of granola.
👉Try new VEGGIE sides like:
▪kale chips
▪green bean & carrot fries 🍟
▪cauliflower mac & cheese
BONUS: Watch THIS television segment for more fun veggie ideas.
“Adulting” usually means having less and less fun in our days. Bringing FUN back (especially w/ healthy eating) is the secret to success.💫

Eggland’s Best is a proud supporter of the American Heart Association’s Healthy For Good movement, and together they’re educating families on the importance of eating nutritious meals together at the table.
