Tracking your macros doesn’t have to be restrictive and in fact, we pride ourselves on coaching our clients on ways to be more flexible with their food choices. We feel it’s important to include foods that you love and that means dessert and sweet treats! This peanut butter salted caramel apple yogurt bark is the perfect sweet treat for this season (or any season, really!) It’s super easy to make and for 22g of protein per serving, it can actually play a role in helping you nail your protein goals!

Let's face it, life often gets chaotic, leaving us little time to complete all of our errands, let alone cook all of our meals from scratch. Popping into Starbucks for a drink or a meal might seem like it will throw our nutrition goals “off track,” however if we understand the nutritional content of the food we're choosing, we can choose foods that help us work towards our nutrition goals.  Believe it or not, Starbucks DOES have some food options that keep us fueled and feeling good, proving that even in the midst of a busy day, we can make choices that support our health.

Ice cream is a top three favorite dessert for me and sometimes, a small serving or just a few bites isn’t very satisfying. It can feel disappointing when you want to work towards your aesthetic goals but also want to enjoy your food. Enter: the magic that is created using the Ninja Creami. This week’s post shares two very simple recipes (plus flavor ideas!) for making low-calorie, high-protein ice cream that won’t break your macros, even if you decide to eat the whole pint.

Sweets are a whole mood in our house and a day doesn’t go by that I don’t have something sweet somewhere in my day. When you’re tracking macros or being mindful of your caloric intake, it can sometimes feel like you have to stay away from sweets or foods that you enjoy, but we feel the opposite!

Ice cream and sweet cold treats are some of my favorites when it comes to dessert, especially in the heat of the summer. When tracking your macros, it can sometimes be tough to work in a “healthy” sweet treat or dessert, which is why we created these low-calorie high protein frozen yogurt smoothie popsicles.

Getting enough protein in your diet can be tough. The most helpful advice we have is to make sure that each meal and snack you eat has an identifiable protein source included in it. Every recipe we create has the goal of making it easier for you to hit your protein and today we’re including some snack ideas that can help you hit that protein target.

If you’re anything like me, you have a pretty strong sweet tooth and dinner doesn’t feel complete without capping it off with a nice little sweet treat. Here are a few of our favorite go-to macro-friendly treats and desserts. Some can be thrown together in a few minutes at home, others are ready to eat right away; some are great for an evening dessert, and others make great sweet midday snacks. Enjoy!

Any holiday is a good excuse for us to loosen up on tracking and say I’ll get back to it tomorrow. BUT, with a little bit of planning and pre-tracking, you can have a full day of eating AND a yummy home-cooked meal with your Valentine without compromising your nutrition goals.

If you’re staying in this Valentine’s and cooking for you and your honey, try this easy, 3-course macro-friendly meal for two!
