What I Eat in a Day: Nourishing My Body with Whole Foods
Nutrition is so multifaceted – our relationship with food is unique to us and influenced by our upbringing, preferences, and personal needs. For me, food isn’t about restriction; it’s about nourishment, balance, and feeling my best.
Instead of focusing on what I “shouldn’t” eat, I choose to fuel my body with foods that make me feel good. I prioritize variety, ensuring I get a mix of proteins, healthy fats, fiber, and carbs throughout the day. Different veggies mean different nutrients, and I love incorporating all the food groups into my meals. Here’s a look at what I eat on a typical day!
Morning Routine: Hydration & Energy Boost
Glow Shot: Start your morning with a zesty and immune-boosting Glow Shot, made with fresh oranges, lemons, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, cayenne, and a touch of agave or maple syrup. This powerhouse shot supports digestion, reduces inflammation, and gives you a natural energy boost.
You can prep these at the beginning of the week and then store in THESE containers for quick mornings!
🍵 Detox Tea – This soothing tea helps wake up my digestive system and sets a refreshing tone for the day.
Breakfast: A Balanced Start
🥤 Smoothie – I love starting my day with a smoothie packed with protein, fiber, and greens. It’s light, refreshing, and fuels me for the morning ahead.
Egg Bites: Enjoy protein-rich egg bites filled with vegetables and cheese, providing sustained energy for the day ahead.
Lunch: Light and Savory
Chicken Salad: Savor a chicken salad loaded with lean protein and crisp vegetables, dressed lightly for a nutritious midday meal.
Infused Water: Stay hydrated with water infused with slices of cucumber, lemon, or berries for a subtle flavor enhancement.
Afternoon Snack: Light & Nourishing
Veggie Tray with Good Crisp Chips: Munch on a variety of fresh vegetables accompanied by Good Crisp Chips for a satisfying crunch.
Dinner: Flavorful and Filling
Shredded Beef Tacos: Indulge in shredded beef tacos, seasoned to perfection and served with your choice of toppings, combining rich flavors with essential nutrients.
Dessert: Sweet Treat
Almond Joy Bites: Conclude your day with Almond Joy Bites—a delightful combination of coconut, almonds, and dark chocolate.
Eating whole, nutrient-dense foods throughout the day helps me feel my best. I don’t stress about what I “can’t” have – I focus on how my food makes me feel and how it fuels my body.
Everyone’s food journey is unique, but I hope this gives you some inspiration for adding variety and balance into your meals! What are some of your favorite daily meals? Let me know in the comments! 💛
