Delicious Healthy Snacks!

Hello  FIT FAM!

My name is Emma, a FIT ambassador in Tucson.  I wanted to share a few of my favorite recipes and healthy eats I have been loving lately.

Staying home lately has us all cooking a bit more than some of us would like.  For some of you I am sure cooking from home is a great way to relax and activity. Let's just say, to not get bored.  Whether you are a master chef or just want something quick and easy here are a few of my top simple healthy recipes I make weekly.


POST WORKOUT SMOOTHIE

For all of us Tucsonians the summer heat is arriving WAY too early.  This has me craving smoothies on the daily. Here is my go to post workout shake or smoothie bowl:

  • ½ cup frozen berries (I use blueberries)
  • ½ cup frozen riced cauliflower
  • 1 frozen banana
  • ½ cup water 
  • ½ cup milk of choice ( I use almond)
  • 1 scoop protein powder (I use shakeology or Nuzest both in vegan vanilla or chocolate)

This is typically my morning shake sometimes for some extra fat. If I don’t have a side of toast with butter or avocado I will add 1 Tbsp of coconut oil to my shake for those MCTs.  If you make it a smoothie bowl I recommend topping with cereal and peanut or almond butter.  ENJOY!


SUMMERTIME SPRING ROLLS

These are one of my warm weather favorites as a light meal or snack!

  • Tofu grilled and marinated in coconut aminos or soy sauce 
  • Soy paper wraps 
  • Cabbage or iceberg lettuce
  • Mango 
  • Cucumber
  • Peppers (bell)
  • Peanut sauce

Marinate the tofu and grill until fully cooked (about 10 is minutes).  Then thinly slice the mango cucumber and bell peppers.  After slicing the tofu thin, dip soy paper wraps in water for about 3 seconds and set on a plate.  Fill the wrap with the desired amount of ingredients (a little goes a long way) and repeat the process until you use everything up.  
Dip in peanut sauce and enjoy!

LEMON ROSEMARY SALMON 

This is a super simple salmon dish that my family makes regularly.  Nothing is really measured here so it’s just a guideline for a super yummy dish

  • Salmon 
  • Rosemary 
  • Lemon
  • EVOO

Layout the salmon in a baking pan and coat in olive oil or olive oil spray ( I like regular) then thinly slice lemons and place all around the fish, then repeat with the rosemary .Bake until cooked.  Add salt and pepper if you'd like as well.   Serve with roasted potatoes and asparagus or rice and broccoli.  Voila!



A FEW FAVORITE SNACKS I’VE BEEN LOVING

I’m a snacker, aren’t we all?  Here are a few of my current favorites that are a bit more outside the snacking norm.

  1. Hu Kitchen Crackers:  WOW.  These are insanely good, try the pizza crackers.  Baked with superseeds and all the healthy goodies I had no idea I was eating a lower carb cracker.  Amazing with cheese, hummus, you name it.  
  2. Naked bars:  A bit of a larabar but more unique flavors I discovered these bars on Amazon and have not turned back.  A mix of dates, nuts and natural flavor the bakewell tart and coffee walnut are on the top of my list. 
  3. HARMLESS HARVEST COCONUT YOGURT: If you love yogurt and coconut try this it’s amazing - and dairy free.  

Thank you for reading friends!  
Stay well!
Keep fit!
Xoxo
