⭐️SOUR APPLE TRUE DATES: If you’re a fan of sour gummies, you must try these sour apple coated dates, they’re seriously amazing! You get 8 dates for just 120 calories, only 1g of fat, no added sugar, and 4g of fiber. A sweet, tangy treat you can feel good about. I found mine at World Market, but you can grab them online too.

⭐️MIRACLE NOODLE: I discovered these on a trip to the West Coast and now I’ll be stocking up on Amazon. This entire package of egg white noodles is just 45 calories and packs in 10g of protein. I heated them up with a scoop of cottage cheese, Parmesan, tomato sauce, broccoli, and grilled chicken for a delicious, high-protein meal.

⭐️PROPER GOOD OVERNIGHT OATS: These delicious bowls make it so easy to have a healthy breakfast ready and waiting in the morning. Each serving provides 15g of protein from whey to help keep you full and fueled. Want a complete breakfast or anytime meal? Stir in cottage cheese or Greek yogurt for an extra protein boost. Then top it off with fresh berries or a chopped apple for extra fiber.

⭐️TRADER JOE’S CHICKEN BREAST BITES: I love these cute, fully cooked chicken packs with honey mustard. And the best part? They come with a mini skewer, so no fork needed! They’re perfect on their own as a quick, protein-packed snack, or pair them with fruit or veggies to turn them into an easy, balanced meal. You’ll find them in the refrigerated section and grab them while you can… I have a feeling they will sell out.

⭐️WASA CINNAMON CRISP CREATIONS: These lightly sweet, perfectly crisp crackers are delicious on their own for a simple snack or top them with mashed berries and a little nut butter for a wholesome, satisfying treat. Each cracker has just 60 calories, 1g of fat, and only 2g of added sugar.

⭐️TRADER JOE’S MINI DARK CHOCOLATE BISCUIT COOKIES: These are dangerously good, so consider yourself warned! Each mini biscuit is only about 10 calories and 0.5g of fat, which makes them perfect for a little sweet fix. Try crushing a few over a bowl of fruit for the ultimate balance of indugence and wholesomeness. There’s just enough chocolatey crunch to make your healthy snack feel like dessert!

⭐️LE SAUCE SAVORY MUSHROOM GRAVY: Have a 1-pound pack of protein like chicken or ground turkey on hand? Simply cook it up and pour a packet of LE SAUCE Savory Mushroom Gravy over the top for a quick, delicious meal. Add a side of veggies, and dinner is done. Each packet contains 4 servings, with just 30 calories per serving and only 1g of sugar.

⭐️TRADER JOE’S RICE PUDDING: This classic dessert is well done by TJ’s. The convenient four-pack makes for an easy treat, with each serving coming in at just 130 calories and 2.5 g of fat. For a fiber and nutrient boost, try topping it with a handful of berries and a high-fiber cereal like Smart Bran.

⭐️BETTER WITH BUCKWHEAT MAINE CRISPS: These wild blueberry walnut crackers make a satisfyingly crunchy snack, with just 70 calories, 2 g of fiber, and 2.5 g of fat per six-piece serving. They’re perfect for scooping up cottage cheese and blueberries, adding a boost of protein along with extra fiber.

⭐️MAKE-YOUR-OWN MARSHMALLOW PB FIBER TREATS: This tastes just like a peanut butter Rice Krispie treat. To make one bar, mix 2 tablespoons of Toonie Moonie Marshmallow Creme (or Fluff) with 1 tablespoon of Better ’N Peanut Butter and ¼ cup of Smart Bran. Refrigerate for a few hours, then enjoy!

⭐️DOUBLE GREEN MATCHA TEA: After an amazing trip to Japan, I came home with a renewed love for matcha. If you’re curious about its benefits but find straight matcha a bit too intense, this green tea–matcha blend is a great option. It’s essentially a green tea bag with just a hint of matcha, giving you the best of both worlds without the strong flavor.

⭐️TRADER JOE’S GOURMET JELLY BEANS I’ve loved jelly beans since childhood and still enjoy them as an adult. Although they’ve been around for a while, I only recently discovered Trader Joe’s version, and they’ve quickly become my go-to when I’m craving something sweet. I love that they’re made without artificial colorings, and with about four calories per bean, it’s easy to portion exactly how much I want.

⭐️LITTLE SPOON MINI TURKEY KALE MEATBALLS: These cute little turkey meatballs are perfect for on-the-go snacking, but super convenient for a meal too. 24 pieces are a serving and made from simple and tasty ingredients. I grabbed a bag of these at my local Target.

⭐️WHOLLY AVOCADO SMASHED AVOCADO: If you are like me and eat avocado almost daily, you’ll be happy to keep these convenient packs on hand in your refrigerator. It’s not always easy to purchase and ripen fresh avocados at your whim, so I love having them as an alternative. 1 mini cup is 130 calories, 11g fat, and 3g fiber coming from 1 ingredient… Haas Avocados. Use 1/2 cup if you want a smaller portion without forgoing taste.

⭐️TRADER JOE’S PROTEIN PANCAKES: Have you been lucky enough to score one of these packages? They have been selling out by mid-morning at many locations, and now I know why. Each yummy pack provides 20g protein and paired with a cup of mixed berries, makes a quick and tasty meal.

⭐️GOODLES SINGLE SERVE CUPS: I love classic Mac and Cheese, and I love Goodles boxed Mac and Cheese - but it’s not always easy to prep a box. Thank you Goodles for making these easy to prepare cups. Not only are they yummy, but you can mix in cooked protein and veggies for a complete meal.

⭐️JESSE & BEN’S ROSEMARY GARLIC FRIES: Here are the ingredients for these awesome fries: Potatoes, Avocado Oil, Sea Salt, Garlic Powder, and Rosemary. Delish, healthy, and easy to prepare!

⭐️WHOLE FOODS STUFFED BUTTERNUT SQUASH: Check out this limited edition frozen stuffed butternut squash at Whole Foods! This savory meal has a delicious medley of veggies, chickpeas, quinoa, and seeds. Simply pop into your oven for about an hour and serve as a plant-based meal or slice up as a side dish.

Here are a few items I’ve been enjoying over the summer and in recent days…

MISO GINGER DRESSING: I usually make my own salad dressings, but this delicious organic miso ginger dressing is a new go-to for me. With only 60 calories and 2g fat in 2 tablespoons, I feel better about using a drizzle on top of my salad or as a dip for grilled chicken or shrimp.

BUILT PUFF BARS: I love Puff bars, especially when I’m craving a sweet treat. The coconut flavor reminds me of a chocolate covered marshmallow bar and the protein source is from whey and collagen, which provides 17 grams. Unlike other chocolate bars, this has only 3g fat and 140 calories per bar.

CHOCOBITES: Many of you may be familiar with Alyssa’s Oatmeal and Vegan Bites sold at your local grocery store. This chocolate version is hard to find, but you can order them online at www.AlyssasCookies.com. I love that they are chock full of fiber with 8g in each 2 cookie serving and only 100 calories and 4g fat.

SEAFOOD PAELLA FROM LIDL: If you have a Lidl near you, check out this Seafood Paella. It’s great as a quick and easy base for a meal and you can make it healthier by adding your own veggies and extra protein such as chicken breast or additional seafood.

NUMA TAFFY: Loving these individually wrapped taffy candies for approximately 35 calories each. They can be hard when you buy them, so I followed the recommendation on the bag and put them in my pocket to soften up and it worked!

PIP’S HEIRLOOOM CINNAMON SUGAR TWISTS: These delicious twists are a great crunchy snack and made with healthier avocado oil. Just be mindful of your portion… it’s easy to eat the entire bag!

SPROUTED PROTEIN OATMEAL: This gluten-free oatmeal was a great find at my local Whole Foods. The 10g of protein is vegan, as it comes from beans. I mixed in a handful of blueberries for some extra fiber and flavor.

RICOTTA TORTA SNACK: If you haven’t tried Ines Rosales Tortes (they come in a variety of flavors), give them a try. I cracked one into a few pieces and scooped them up with 2 tablespoons of ricotta cheese for a yummy snack!

ONCE UPON A FARM MEAL STARTERS: Don’t sleep on these toddler meal starters! You can make a quick and easy meal for any age… Simply microwave and mix in a cooked protein (I used Trader Joe’s fully cooked organic chicken). They are made with veggies and healthy oils such as olive and avocado. Tasty and easy!

SIGGI’S PROTEIN PACKS: These are great grab and go yogurt Skyr packs. They are made with simple ingredients and without gums. Each pack provides 110 calories and 11g protein.

👉SWEETGREEN AVOCADO OIL AIR-FRIED RIPPLE FRIES: I love that Sweetgreen is now using avocado oil for their fries. This was a great lunch combo with an order of the Mini Mezze Kids’ Meal (I used half the tortilla chips and crumbled them on top).

👉DOLE ACAI BOWLS: An acai bowl at your local place can run you over 700 calories if you’re not careful with toppings. These portion controlled bowls from Dole are a great alternative to keep on hand at home for 210 calories and they contain 7g fiber. You could add your own additional toppings if you’d like!

👉CHEDDIES CRACKERS: I used to eat my son’s Goldfish crackers when he was younger - and this Classic Cheddar flavor brought me back to those days. I love the simplicity of the ingredients, and you can sometimes find them in single serve packs. I found these at my local Target.

👉LENTILFUL: I love lentils, but I don’t have the patience to prepare them myself. Enter these terrific Instant Lentil bowls. I tried the French Mirepoix flavor, and it was tasty and filling. I also tried it mixed with cooked chicken for additional protein and another day, I added them to my lunch salad. Each 200 calorie serving packs 6g fiber, 12g plant protein and less than a gram of fat.

👉DRIZZILICIOUS RICE CAKE BITES: Here is a great treat you can find at Target or Whole foods. These mini sweet rice cake bites are 90 calories and 3g fat per serving, which means you can portion out how much you want to eat at about 4 calories each!

👉PIZZOLATO ORGANIC NON-ALCOHOLIC SPARKING BEVERAGE: This “Champagne” comes with super cute sparkly packaging and has only 25 calories in a 6-ounce serving. Great when you’re looking for a fun beverage without the alcohol or extra calories.

03/05/2025

👉 NOODLE REVOLUTION: Move over shirataki noodles, you need to try these awesome egg white noodles I found on Amazon! The package is 45 calories, 0 fat,

01/10/2025

👉HEAVEN & EARTH DATE BITES: These were a great find at Whole Foods! Made from simple ingredients, each bite tastes like a delicious chocolate truffle and has just 90 calories and 4.5g fat.

👉TRADER JOE’S SUGARED RICE CRACKERS: If you love a salty/sweet combo, give these a try. 13 crunchy pieces are a serving with 110 calories and 0g fat. I crushed a few and mixed it with Greek yogurt and berries and it was a delicious snack!

👉TRADER JOE’S CRUNCHY POPS: Another great Trader Joe’s snack find were these airy, crunchy “pops” from TJ’s. 39 pieces are a serving… and only 3.5g fat coming from olive oil!

👉TRADER JOE’S TERIYAKI CHICKEN BOWL: While you’re at TJ’s looking for the snacks, head to the frozen section where you’ll find these yummy meals made with simple ingredients. Each bowl is 370 calories and 3.5g fat. You could bulk it up by addition additional veggies and/or protein.

👉FILLO’S REFRIED MILD CRANBERRY BEANS: Don’t be put off by the name… these are healthy refried beans and a chock full of fiber and flavor without too much fat (which by the way, comes from extra virgin olive oil). I made a delicious rice and salmon bowl with a scoop of Fillo’s and topped with broiled asparagus. Each 1/2 cup serving of refried beans is 150 calories, 4.5g fat, 1g added sugar, and 5g fiber.

👉PITAYA FOODS ORGANIC IMMUNITY: I just got back from a trip to Vietnam where Dragon Fruit, Passion Fruit, and Mango were plentiful and delicious. I was so happy to find this mixture at Whole Foods. I topped a bowl with a scoop of Good Culture cottage cheese and crushed walnuts for a dose of added protein and healthy fat.

10/28/2024

👉TRADER JOE’S THAI PEANUT SATAY SAUCE: I love this sauce from TJ’s not only for dipping chicken (you can pair with their fully cooked organic grilled chicken breast strips for a tasty snack or mini meal), but it’s also great for mixing into meals.

👉HARRISON’S FRUIT SMILES: Fruit slices are one of my favorite candies. These cute little treats are made without dyes and a treat at 15 calories each!

👉SIETE SINGLE SERVE TORTILLA CHIPS: I’m so happy to see these grain-free chips now come in individual serving bags. Great for for snacks, or you can crush a few and top on a salad instead of croutons!

👉PRIMAL KITCHEN PLANT BASED QUESO STYLE DIP: While I’m posting about tortilla chips, let me mention this awesome dairy-free dip. I paired a scoop with Siete Lime chips, and it was a great combo.

👉NATURE’S PATH DARK CHOCOLATE OATMEAL: Dessert for breakfast! Mix berries into this yummy oatmeal and enjoy any time of day.

👉SEVEN TEAS GREEN TEA FLAVORS: For a refreshing beverage, mix 1/3 can with water for approx. 23 calories. It was the perfect balance of sweetness without too much sugar.
