My Favorite Rainbow Plate ๐๐ฅ๐งก
One thing I always tell my clients to do is EAT THE RAINBOW ! Filling your plate / diet with colors is going to ensure you are getting all the proper nutrients, vitamins and minerals. ๐ฅฉ๐งก๐ฅโจ
Making your meals into bowls like this is a simple way to pack it with all the things your body needs to thrive : protein, carbs, fats and fiber. Letโs break it down with the foods I used with this meal, one of my faves - viral hot honey ground beef bowl. ๐คค
๐ฅฉ Protein : ground beef (or you can use ground turkey or chicken) + cottage cheese. Both of these are solid sources of protein and very versatile to add to any meal.
๐งก Carbs / Color : Sweet potatoes contain a healthy dose of carbs along with hormone balancing nutrients your body will love. Mixed greens contain a ton of micronutrients your body needs for digestion and immune function. Lime juice is high in vit C, helps with digestion and has anti-inflammatory properties.
๐ฅ Fats : Avocado or guacamole (I always use the single serve cups from Costco - minimal ingredients, inexpensive and last a long time). Your body needs fats for so many bodily functions and for your hormone health, donโt skip out on healthy fats in your diet! Pumpkin seeds are also a great addition to a bowl like this and contain healthy fats and a good dose of protein too! ๐ช๐ผ

Eating a balanced and colorful diet is essential for maintaining good health. The concept of 'EAT THE RAINBOW' encourages incorporating a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables into your meals. Sweet potatoes not only provide essential carbohydrates, but their rich vitamin A and C content supports immune function and overall health. Ground beef, or its lean alternatives like turkey or chicken, is a fantastic protein source that your body needs for energy and muscle repair. Cottage cheese is another excellent protein-rich option, providing calcium and promoting satiety. Don't overlook the importance of healthy fats, which are crucial for hormone function and cellular health. Avocados and pumpkin seeds are nutrient-dense foods that add healthy fats to your meals while enhancing flavor and texture. For added flavor and nutritional benefits, lime juice can boost your meals with vitamin C and aid digestion. Together, these ingredients not only brighten up your plate but also contribute significantly to your nutritional needs, promoting a well-rounded diet that supports your fitness and wellness goals.
