Hey %FIRSTNAME%,
We all have those mornings when don’t wanna adult.
But we know we need something to fuel our day, especially when wrangling young kids.
Have you noticed the difference in the way your body feels when you fuel yourself with more intention?
If you’re noticing that your energy tanks or you feel ravenous between meals - it likely means you’re either:
Not eating enough
Not eating a balanced meal
Or a combination of both.
Finding ways to sneak in protein amidst the morning chaos can make a huge difference in energy levels and how long we stay full.
Here are five hassle-free ideas that ensure you get the nutrition without much effort:
- Frozen Breakfast Sandwiches: A lifesaver on rushed mornings. Pop them in the microwave, and you've got a warm, satisfying meal. You can prepare yourself or find them frozen. I’ve seen them at Costco.
- Overnight Oats or Instant Oats: Add a scoop of vanilla Greek yogurt and a scoop of hemp hearts for a creamy, protein-packed kick to jumpstart your day.
- Boiled Eggs with Cheese: Simple and loaded with protein. Pair with toast or bread for a fulfilling morning bite.
- Bagel with Cream Cheese or Nut Butter and Fruit: Grab-and-go, yet nutritious. Add a variety of fruits for a wholesome touch.
- Iced Coffee or Matcha Latte with Protein Powder: When you’re really in a pinch and needing a caffeinated pick-me-up, add a scoop of protein powder into a hot or cold coffee or matcha latte to keep you going until you can eat a meal.
What are your go-to morning lifesavers? I’d love to hear!
Warmly,
Amy
