Powerful (Breakfast) Foods to Fight Cravings 🍳

When I put together a meal, I always think of 4 things - Protein, Fiber, Fat, and Complex carbs, because Powerful Foods Fight Cravings! When our food is fueled with protein, fiber, and healthy fats, we stay satiated for longer and nourish our bodies in the process. I also love meals that are quick and easy to prepare, so here are a few of my favorites I keep in rotation!

  • Yogurt Bowl 🍓🫐

    • Greek Yogurt(Nonfat + Plain) - high in protein!

    • Berries of choice - I prefer blueberries & strawberries

    • Granola (for some added crunch)

    • Almond Butter/Peanut Butter (sugar-free, no extra additives)

    • Chia seeds

    • Cacao nibs/low-sugar chocolate chips 🍫

  • Eggs, Chicken Sausage, Kimchi, Avocado 🥚

  • Egg white scramble/omelette sprinkled with mozzarella cheese & veggies you have in the fridge (i.e. onions, peppers, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc.) with a side of fruit (i.e. berries, orange/mandarin)

    • For added protein, add some cottage cheese, turkey/ham deli meat, or chicken/sausage 🥓

    • You can switch out the eggs for tofu

    • You can also make these into tacos by adding a low-carb tortilla that is high in fiber- my favorite is the Mission brand! 🌮

  • Chia seed pudding or oatmeal with protein powder, berries, and nuts 🥣

  • Smoothie 🧉

    • Almond milk

    • Protein powder

    • Frozen berries

    • Nut butter🥜

    • Chia seeds/Flax Seeds

    • Greek Yogurt/Kefir

    • Spinach/Kale 🥬

    • Cacao nibs

  • Cottage cheese on whole grain, seeded toast with berries

  • Avocado toast (whole grain, seeded toast) with eggs 🥑🍞
