Some humour for Friday and my first ‘reel’ post!

But for ‘reel’ (see what I did there? 😉) this is a great example of how even if isn’t an overt “fad diet” it can still promote unnecessary food restriction or dieting behaviours.

You don’t need to cut carbs in the evening, not eat past 7pm or only ever eat “clean” to be healthy. I promise! 💛 Have a great weekend everyone!

Filed under: things that get me out of bed in the morning — breakfast cookies! 🍪☀️

These chewy breakfast cookies are hearty, healthy and require less than 30 minutes to make! Made with nutritious ingredients like oats, peanut butter, chia and pumpkin seeds...oh and chocolate for good measure. 😉

Add them to your meal prep list for a delicious breakfast all week! Get the recipe on my blog, link in bio. 👆🏼

What are your go-to summer snacks? I often want so

What are your go-to summer snacks? I often want something sweet in the evenings, and since it’s been so hot these 2-ingredient popsicles have been hitting the spot! 👏🏼 Even Pat is obsessed with them haha.

All you need to make them is 1 cup of vanilla yogurt (I like to use Greek yogurt or skyr for protein – gives them a little more staying power) and 1 cup of blended fruit. For these ones I used blueberries.

Sweet, refreshing, and easy! Now that’s my kind of snack. Full recipe on my blog – link in bio!

I think we can all agree that you don’t have to be vegetarian or vegan to enjoy a good veggie burger! 🍔

I truly believe that one key to healthy eating is a diverse diet with lots of variety – so why not switch it up and make your burgers with chickpeas next time?

Chickpeas are:
💛 A popular food from the legume family
💛 A source of plant-based protein (~15g per cup), calcium and iron
💛 High in fibre (they contain both soluble & insoluble fibre!)

Now that we’re all in love with chickpeas 😉, you can grab the recipe for these Greek-inspired Chickpea Burgers on my blog! Link in my bio.

Have you ever assumed a product was the healthier

Have you ever assumed a product was the healthier choice because it was labelled something like “gluten-free”, “organic”, “all-natural”, or “refined-sugar free?” 🍩 No judgement, I’ve done it too!

This is called the Health Halo Effect. 😇 The assumption that a food or product is good for you, a lot of times as a result of marketing or buzzwords on the label. Here’s the thing: a single claim like “low-fat” or “16g of protein” doesn’t determine the entire nutritional value of the food. It’s not the whole picture!

Despite the controversy, unrefined sugar is still sugar. Gluten-free donuts are still donuts. Organic chicken nuggets are still nuggets. Many a times, they’re a lot more expensive. 🤑

I am definitely NOT ‼️ saying these foods are ALL bad and that you shouldn’t choose any of them – don’t get me wrong! You know I believe all foods fit. The bottom line is that you shouldn’t let one single claim or phrase on the label dictate your choices, because it definitely doesn’t dictate whether or not it’s good for you.

So what should influence your choices? I wrote an entire blog post about the Health Halo Effect, examples, and what you really should consider when making your food purchases. Click the link in my bio for the post!

BBQ-Hosting Essentials: Good weather, delicious food, and a refreshing drink! What are yours? ☀️

Some days my refreshing drink of choice is a sparkling water or kombucha, some days it’s a cocktail. When choosing alcohol, I tend to go for lighter, lower sugar options as this is what usually feels best for me. Think spiked sodas like @sociallitevodka that are still tasty and refreshing. #sponsored

SoCIAL LITE drinks are Canadian-made and naturally flavoured. They’re light, refreshing and come in a variety of tasty flavours like Triple Berry. Best enjoyed cold on a hot summer day, IMO! 💦 #staysocial #sociallitevodka

Looking to jazz up your lunches? I’ve got you!

This Pesto Pasta Salad is a great lunch option because:
⏰ you can prep a big batch at the start of the week to save time each day
🥙 it’s hella satisfying with fibre-rich veggies and carbs, beans for added protein and healthy fat in the pesto.
🤯 who doesn’t love pesto?

I don’t know who needs to hear this today, but just walking still counts as exercise.

I shared that 👆🏼on my Instagram story the other day and it got a lot of response. I think it’s a misconception that if you’re not lifting heavy or panting and sweating, you’re not doing it right. This isn’t true!

Not that you need permission from someone to take a break from higher intensity exercise (or exercise all together), but I think a lot of people have a tough time accepting lighter, lower-impact movement as something that “counts”. It does.

Last week on vacation, I brought my workout clothes but didn’t plan any exercise per say. Most of the week I just really enjoyed walking the beach and swimming. It felt great. I returned home energized and ready to take on a new month!

Moral of the story, do your thing! Lower the intensity if you need to. Rest if you need to. Walking is a lovely, beneficial form of exercise to take part in if you enjoy it. And you don’t have to take part in exercise that doesn’t make you feel good. ✌🏼
