All Out Nutrition

🎶 I can’t, get no, satisfaction… (get it… like the song?)

But you CAN make satisfying meals if you know some basic nutrition principles!

What makes a meal satisfying? Well, there’s a physical component and mental component ⬇️

To achieve physical satisfaction:
- Carbs
- Protein
- Healthy Fats
- Fiber

To achieve mental satisfaction:
- Varying textures (crunchy, crisp, chewy)
- Complex flavors (sweet, salty, acidic, umami)
- Differing temperatures
- Eating what you ENJOY

For example (cuz examples are FUN): let’s ELEVATE a bowl of oatmeal 🥣

😔 Sad Oatmeal
- Cooked oats (carbs, fiber)
- Fruit (carbs, fiber)

😎 Rad Oatmeal (or Roatmeal)
- Cooked oats (carbs, fiber)
- Frozen fruit (convenient, fun temperature difference, carbs, fiber)
- Walnuts (healthy fats, protein, fiber)
- Chia seeds (healthy fats, protein, fiber, fun crunch)
- Ground flax (healthy fats, fiber)
- Greek yogurt (protein, fun temperature difference)
- Honey (carbs, satisfying sweetness)

So many little things you can do to make a meal more satisfying, both physically and mentally!
