Move over cold cereal and eggs, there's a new batch of breakfast gamechangers on the rise! From avacado toast to overnight oats, people are eating differently these days with wellness in mind!

A recent report from MyFitnessPal (which is also my fav fitness app!) show that green juices are out, chia is less popular and there are 5 rising stars including protein pancakes, power muffins, frittatas and of course the top two stars we mentioned above!

Foods that spike in interest on weekdays are usually either quick and easy to make (fritatas), drink (green smoothies) or are prepared the night before such as overnight oats.

​It's easy to undersand that on the weekends, we tend to gravitate to foods that take more time to prepare such as a pancakes.  I found it interesting to see that avacado toast and smoothies are still popular during the weekend and not as popular during the week. 

What are your thoughts? Do these food trends hit the spot or are you finding something different? 

Have a great breakfast recipe to share? Post below!

ON-THE-ROAD WITH SAFE GLUTEN FREE AND FOOD ALLERGY SNACKS

7/13/2015

1 Comment

 
Finding no mess snacks to pack for a road trip, flight or cruise while eating gluten free or managing food allergies can be a bit challenging at times. Here are a few ideas that can be easily packed and carried with you anywhere depending upon your food concerns:

Fresh/dried fruits and vegetables
Protein and energy bars
Nuts and trail mixes
Allergy-friendly cereals, breads, crackers & cookies
Packaged meats for sandwiches
Chips and candy
Packaged salad dressings & sauces

Since I personally manage celiac disease and food allergies, I always make sure to have a mix of protein and carbohydrates with me while on-to-road. I also bring enough food to get to my destination while taking into account potential travel delays. 

Some of my favorite, travel-size gluten free and dairy free snacks include:
Protein bars
Protein mixes 
Applegate roasted turkey on toasted gluten free  bread in a Ziploc bag
Snyder’s gluten free pretzels in individual bags
Single-serve peanut butter or hazelnut butter (great on celery sticks, thin rice cakes and pretzels)

Also, always be sure to read product labels diligently to ensure that ingredients have not changed and the snacks are safe for you to eat based upon your allergies. 

I hope you enjoy safe snacks wherever your life may take you!
