Full Day of Eating While I travel! Healthy, high protein and delicious. Even if you’re out of the house for one day, here are some tips below for you to save.👇🏼 - 1. Prepare something easy and high protein to eat BEFORE leaving. This is important because you may never know what to expect when travelling. At the very least, you can get 30-40 grams of protein in and feel satisfied. Starting the day off with success is always important mentally too! - 2. I love packing a meal any time I’m travelling or out for a long period of time. In this case, it was my protein chipotle pasta salad. Some leftovers I meal prepped over the week. Airport food is not only super expensive, but there are insufficient options. You can pass through security as long as it’s solid food, so you’ll have no issues doing your own thing. - 3. When i’m buying food, I look for things I would enjoy making at home. Grilled, not fried. LOTS of veggies, and a good portion of protein. Don’t overcomplicate things, find simple and clean ingredients! - 4. When I travel, I’m walking a LOT and I may even still get a workout in if I have time. With that being said, I tend to end my night off with a higher carb, higher protein meal. This is to refuel myself for all the activity I’ve done. - 5. Throughout the day I’m having TONS of water. I aim for about 3-4L. Keep yourself hydrated. Super important! - - #food #cooking #eating #fulldayofeating #healthy #healthyrecipes #mealprep #travel #travelling #protein #healthylifestyle #fitnessjourney
