Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner Options.
Now that we are in the heart of spring with green grass and warmer weather, now is the time to swap out some of those old, unhealthy eating habits for fresh new ones. Perhaps one of the best changes you can make for your body and your health is to adopt a clean eating lifestyle. What better time to change your lifestyle than the start of spring?
What is clean eating, anyway? It’s choosing to nourish your body with fresh, whole foods instead of those that are packaged, processed, and loaded with too much salt, sugar, or fat. For example, an easy clean eating swap would be to choose a whole, natural apple over sugar-added, store-bought applesauce. Another simple switch is to trade that soda (even the diet kind) for water or one of these 4 Healthy Alternatives to Diet Sodas. Have a taste for lattés or processed store-bought coffee drinks? Replace them with clean eating Morning Joe in the Raw (including a Caramel Macchiato Option).
So when it’s time to make positive changes in how you look and feel get rid of foods packed with unhealthy ingredients and additives you can’t pronounce. Exchange them for clean eating recipes that give your body what it needs to be fit and healthy.
