Fiona Clarke’s basic approach to meal planning is to not overlook the snacks! “High-fiber snacks maintain your energy and fullness all through the day,” she says.
Homemade Granola Bars
Fiona cautions, “store-bought granola bars can be loaded with sugar.” She advises instead creating your own using rolled oats, chia seeds, almond butter, and a little honey. She explains, “You can grab this quick and healthy snack anywhere.”
Veggie Sticks with Hummus
Made-from- scratch or store-bought hummus goes especially well with bell peppers, celery, and carrots. “It’s a fantastic way to satisfy your cravings and sneak in extra vegetables,” Fiona says.
Chia Seed Pudding:
Fiona advises chia seed pudding as a tasty but healthy treat. She advises mixing chia seeds with almond milk and a little vanilla then letting it lie overnight. “Top with berries for extra taste and fibre.”
Fiona’s nibbles show that good eating doesn’t have to be dull. “The more you enjoy your food, the easier it is to stick to your goals,” she says grinning.
