- Fill resealable plastic with chopped fresh fruits and fiber-filled flax meal and tuck in the freezer. Try peaches, plums, blueberries, strawberries, bananas, apples and/or pears.
- When breakfast time rolls around, a minimal amount of work needs to be completed before I am enjoying a delicious smoothie. Into a blender goes the smoothie freezer pack, yogurt (either plain or fruit flavored), and your choice of juice or a variety or milks. Almond, coconut or cow’s milk are delicious options.
- Use whatever fruits and vegetables are in season and fresh throughout the year for a variety of economical possibilities. Get creative and include canned pumpkin, avocado, or a couple tablespoons of almond or peanut butter.
