As someone whose best friend is Chick-Fil-A french fries, posting an article about clean eats is probably on my list of things I didn’t really expect myself to do. Here I am, with one of my close friends.
1. Avocado Toast
Probably one of the few foods on this planet that you can never go wrong with is avocado, to be honest. Now whether you like your bread whole-grain, raisin, or white, or whether you like eggs or not, avocado on toast is probably one of the best things by man, second to air conditioning. Interested in learning how to make it? Click here.
2. Acai Bowl
You’ve probably seen almost every basic person you know snapchat it, Instagram it, or talk about it endlessly - but probably what shocked me the most is that it was actually pretty good. These berry bowls can be terribly generic, or you could make your own personalized to the fruits you actually stand! And you’ll finish the bowl surprisingly full. Interested in making it yourself? Try here.
3. Greek Yogurt Cakes
This one is actually inspired to one of my friends @carolinecooksclean! This one is an original, but it’s healthy, filling, and only 50 calories! This one is a recipe I’ve tried, and eaten more than once - Kumut cakes with greek yogurt and topped with whatever fruits you’d like! Definitely filling.4. Veggie Burrito
Want to skip out on meat for the day?? Veggie burritos are healthy and insanely filling! You can get these at Whole Foods, or even personalize your own at FreeBirds or Chipotle! If you want to make your own, the recipe is not too far away!
5. Healthy Waffles
You don’t even have to go looking too far to have a slightly healthier meal - just put some extra fruits on it! Those waffles will taste even better.
6. Matcha
What is matcha?? Matcha is a special powdered green tea originally from Japan that is full of antioxidants and tastes pretty sweet! You can throw it into a smoothie, make a chai, tea, or latte out of it — it still tastes great, and is great for you! You can even buy it on Amazon! Get it here!
7. Edamame Salad
Multiple recipes and multiple ways to eat edamame salad, just throw in some veggies and (of course) edamame and throw some salt over it, it's so refreshing!!
8. Power Oatmeal
Toss in a few fruits & nuts in your regular oatmeal and its instantly much healthier and full of antioxidants! Probably an easy one to add to your morning routine.
9. Chia Seed Pudding
Packed with calcium, fiber, antioxidants and omega 3-fatty acids, chia seeds are simple and easy to work with, here’s a list of at least 10 recipes you could tryhere!
10. Purple Power Parfait
100% organic, the purple power parfait gives you (or me at least) immediate energy and isn’t any less filling! Try it here.
11. Quinoa Taco Salad
A twist on your average chipotle bowl, this actually tastes really good!! And that’s coming from a doubter of quinoa. Get the recipe here!
