Snacks Versus Meals

Posted on February 16, 2022February 10, 2022 by Sarah Kesseli

There is often a split between people when it comes to snacking or eating full meals. We believe that meal time should be stress free and align with your personal preferences. While it often gets a bad rap, it is actually helpful to implement snacks into your lifestyle.

To some, snacking is an easier way to meal prep for the day or a more convenient way to get in daily nutrients. To others, snacking is simply a personal preference. Overall, it is important to break the stigma that all snacking is bad. After all, food freedom allows us to incorporate foods into our personal preferences and lifestyles!

What is snacking?

Typically, snacking is characterized as consuming food/beverage between your regular meal times (breakfast, lunch, dinner). With this board definition, it is obvious that snacking or snack times are different for everyone. As there is no universal definition, it is surprising that there is (more or less) a universal stigma.

Unfortunately, snacking does have a negative connotation. Specifically, that it involves overly processed, packaged and “unhealthy” foods. Further, negative messages are often circulated around the idea that snacking could be to blame for weight gain and health complications. As a result, snacking often leads to guilt and food insecurities.

However, snacking doesn’t have to equate to consuming “junk food.” One of our favourite ways to focus on cleaner snacks is to build a snack plate. The best part of a snack plate is that you can pretty much add whatever you like!

If you are a picky eater, snack plates allow you to fill up with the foods you enjoy most. The variety and options snack plates provide you are literally endless.

If you find yourself craving some chips or sweets, you can totally incorporate them into your balanced snack plate. By mixing in fruits, veggies, protein and carbs, your snack plate is perfect for nourishing your body and listening to your cravings, too!

Are there benefits to snacking?

The short answer is: it depends. As aforementioned, there is no uniform definition of snacking nor is there a right or wrong way to snack. Therefore, the benefits of snacking depend on your personal health, preferences and lifestyle.

As explained by Eliza Martinez, snacking benefits can include increasing your nutrient intake and energy. As a result, your concentration levels may be boosted due to fueling your body between meals.

Martinez says that a balanced snack can “increases your energy levels for a longer period of time than sugary snacks do.” Essentially, by consuming balanced snacks, you are slowly fueling your body throughout the day and keeping your energy levels up.

There are many different opinions and perspectives regarding the effects of snacking. However, conflicting views on snacking shows that there is no right or wrong way to incorporate snacks into your routine!

It’s still important to eat full meals

Snacking is certainly an important factor to integrate into your daily meal routine. However, it is just as important to make sure you are eating enough full meals to fuel your body.

Eating complete, nutritious meals ensures that you are consuming the daily recommended nutritional intake. As such, it is important to note that both meals and snacks are a good way to fuel your body – you don’t need to eliminate one or the other! So, don’t be tricked into thinking you should only be eating one meal a day, or replacing all meals with just snacks!

That being said, meal time doesn’t have to be stressful or overcomplicated. Just like snacks, meals can be pretty easy to make! Some of our favourite simple meals include:

Structuring snacks or meals into your routines

Implementing snacks into your dietary lifestyle is all relative to your personal preferences. Some of these can include your hunger levels, dietary restrictions and daily cravings. Planning to incorporate snacks into your diet is all relative to you! Sometimes the best way is by experimenting what snacks work and don’t work for you. From there, you can decide: are you more of a snack or meal person?

Chicken Black Bean Bowl Stuffed Zucchini Boats

Posted on January 5, 2022February 10, 2022 by Sarah Kesseli

Chicken Black Bean Bowl Stuffed Zucchini Boats are a nutritionally packed recipe boasting with Southwestern flavors!

We love to try and eat seasonal, which is why we love enjoying this stuffed zucchini recipe during the summer. Zucchini is at its peak and, boy is it delicious! We grab 2-3 medium zucchini at the local farmers market intending to make zucchini bread but almost always end up making these zucchini boats instead.

Weeknights get crazy. Who can blame us for turning to this recipe over a bread recipe? All you need is 10-15 minutes, depending on how big your zucchini is and you can have this flavorful and easy meal on the table. This recipe serves one to two people, depending on if you eat it alone or with a side dish.

When we need something fast, we enjoy these as is. However, we love to pair these low carb zucchini boats with a farmer’s market fresh salad to make a quick meal.

To make these ‘boats,’ all you need to do is scrape out the center of your zucchini, stuff them with the Chicken Black Bean bowl, top with cheese and then bake until bubbly! Once they are done cooking, remove them from the oven and then pick them up and enjoy. You can use utensils, but we are all about saving on dishes.

You can use the flesh from the center of the zucchini in your side salad or saute it in a bit of olive oil and serve it alongside your breakfast burrito the next morning for a quick and balanced start to your day. We always talk about eating more veggies with your meals, and this is a great way to do just that!

Low Carb Breakfast Recipes: Egg White Patty Breakfast Tacos

Posted on January 3, 2022February 10, 2022 by Sarah Kesseli

When it comes to low carb breakfast recipes, these White Patty Breakfast Tacos are a delicious, gluten-free, high-protein start to your day! Simple to make egg white patties are filled with guacamole, bacon, salsa, cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

We are all for crabs around here, especially of the burrito and flatbread kind. But, every now and again we have some low carb breakfast recipes that we can’t resist sharing!

Let us introduce you to one recipe, our Low Carb Egg White Patty Breakfast Tacos! We are huge fans of tacos for breakfast. Are you? If not, we highly recommend giving them a try, low carb or not. If you aren’t familiar with breakfast tacos, they are a traditional taco. The shell is typically filled with items such as eggs, bacon, avocado, salsa, etc.! Anything you would put in a regular taco is fair game with breakfast tacos, too.

However, for our low carb breakfast taco, we replaced the traditional taco shell with one of our egg white patties. Not only does this significantly reduce the carb count, but it also adds a nice protein boost, as well. Since the “egg” part of the breakfast taco is incorporated into the ‘shell,’ we didn’t add any to the filling.

We then went all out with our favorite fillings such as guacamole, bacon, salsa, purple onion, and fresh cilantro. These allowed us to keep our breakfast taco low carb, while still having a lot of incredible flavors. If low carb breakfast recipes aren’t your thing (and sometimes they aren’t ours, either), you can take this exact recipe and wrap it with a corn tortilla.

We will take the corn tortilla wrapped version, wrap it in some parchment paper and eat it on-the-go! It’s perfect when we are in a rush.

Egg White Patty Breakfast Tacos Ingredients:

1 package Egg White Patties

1/2 cup guacamole (or freshly mashed avocado)

Do you have a tendency to hit that fast food drive-thru on your way to work each day? We admit, that used to be the case around here, too. Until we started making these Make Ahead Egg White Paty Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches; then it was game over! Not only do these taste much better than anything from a drive-thru, but they will save you a lot of money too!

You can meal prep these breakfast sandwiches at the beginning of the week. This will ensure that you have an easy, high-protein breakfast option all week long. These take about 20 minutes to make and will last 5 days in the refrigerator. This is a guaranteed solution for breakfast Monday through Friday.

Our favorite part about these high-protein breakfast sandwiches is that they are customizable. Yes, that’s right! The combinations are endless. We went with Canadian Bacon and cheddar cheese, but regular bacon, veggie bacon, any kind of cheese, etc would be delicious. As long as the item will hold up for 5 days it’s fair game.

Things we wouldn’t recommend are avocado, tomato or a sauce. They will either turn brown or make your English muffin mushy.

Of course, if you’re not one for meal prep, these sandwiches are great for weekend brunch, too. Just set out all of the ingredients and let your guests build their own. Serve with a side of fresh fruit and you have yourself a fast, easy, healthy and delicious meal in minutes.
