Pic 1: a visually balanced plate using the plate method
Pic 2: mixed together because that’s real life.
Visually plating helps me see balance before I eat, especially since it’s easy to underestimate what I’m putting on my plate when everything is mixed from the start.
🍝 ¼ plate pasta for energy and satisfaction
🍗 ¼ plate chicken for protein
🥦 ½ plate broccoli for fiber, volume, and micronutrients
✨ Alfredo on top because flavor matters and food should still be enjoyable
