What I eat in a day college edition

My pre workout breakfast is the best!!! Cinnamon Raisin GF Bread with Sunflower seed bread 🤌🏼🤭 AMAZING. Hits. Every. Time. (Both items can be found at Trader Joe’s)

Next, the breakfast bowl —> includes chicken, rice, black beans, cheese so so so yummmm (Costco)

My typical lunch … GF spinach wrap, turkey, carrots, meat stick, BoBo’s, madegood bars, and simple mills chocolate chip cookies!!!

Always for snack apple and sunflower seed bread.

For dinner, I found this recipe actually here in Lemon8. It’s like smash hamburger tacos. It was delicious and super easy to make!!

... Read moreEating healthy in college can be a challenge, but it doesn't have to be complicated. In this article, we explore various meal ideas to keep your energy up and your taste buds happy throughout a busy day. For breakfast, starting the day with a pre-workout meal is ideal. A great option is gluten-free Cinnamon Raisin Bread with sunflower seed butter. This combination not only tastes amazing but provides lasting energy for your morning workout.

Finally, for dinner, why not try something fun and trendy, like smash burger tacos? This easy-to-make recipe can be a hit amongst your friends and provide a satisfying way to end your day.
