Nutritionist’s meals, an example of my day

A day with Sofia. A nutritionist’s meals.

My breakfast:
I was walking in the supermarket (not the same morning!) and as a true and respectable nutritionist (lol), I was hunting for labels in the cereal section. I stumbled on ‘puffed wheat’  cereals that I ended up buying. These cereals are not considered nutritious as they have only one small gram of fiber per cup, 2 grams of protein and are not an excellent source of vitamins.

I bought them for four reasons: 1) just one ingredient: wheat 2) not a gram of sugar 3) not one gram of salt 4) not a gram of fat. I wanted to see what they tasted like …

Result …. it’s not so bad, but I confess that I had to add a little ‘OUMF .. and a little honey did the trick. ….. So far, between my last meal (the barley) and my breakfast today I must be giving you the impression that I fix all my little taste problems with a little honey. 🙂

Quantity of honey used : the amount you see in the bowl and I simply licked the rest of it from the tip of the teaspoon … 🙂

Note: I think it’s a good idea to buy this kind of cereal for children. If they have a taste for simple textures and have difficulty eating something other than “froot loops’, these type of cereals will help you avoid a lot of sugar and chemicals (eg : colors). They can add  a little honey for themselves and it is much more interesting …

For a little more protein I added half-dozen roasted (without added salt) almonds.
Basically my breakfast looked like this:

A nice glass of 1% fat milk, cereals, a little honey and almonds.

My morning breakfast : 2-3 hours later, I was hungry enough for a snack

By the way,  the fruits were ready to eat. I washed and dried the grapes when I bought them and I cut into pieces the leftover watermelon from the day before.

My lunch : exactly the same dish as last night’s supper. See HERE. Of course I didn’t start all over, there were leftovers.

Dessert: 1 hour later:
I had a craving for a little dessert … yeah, you guessed it, I have more of a sweet tooth 🙂
At the little store close to my office, I bought myself a chocolate pudding. (I should make a little trip to the grocery store and search for the best choice of chocolate pudding available on the market). To my pudding,  I added a handful of dried cranberries that I already had. Note that I chose dried fruits with no preservatives like sulfites. In my package: cranberries, sunflower oil.

Afternoon snack : a banana and a plain greek yogurt.

Dinner:
I didn’t have much time to prepare a meal, which is why we must always have frozen food in our fridge. I planned my evening and, before leaving for work, I defrosted this:

And Also : 1/5 of this pack (a mix of frozen seafood):

Once back home:
On a pan: olive oil, onion, garlic, zucchini. After a few minutes I added half a bottle of tomato sauce (this is my easy solution, but most of the time I make my own sauce). Then towards the end, I added the seafood, a mixture of dried Italian herbs, a little salt and pepper and fresh parsley.
Meanwhile, I’d put the manicotti in the oven at 350F with a small drizzle of olive oil and covered with an aluminum foil (for about 15 minutes)

I poured the sauce mixture over the baked manicotti then put the whole thing back in the over for about 5 minutes.
I had three manicottis with some sauce.
Liquids of the day: water
Et voilà,

Now it is your turn. Share with me your healthy meal on instagram and use #sheismynutritionist for me to see what you are up to.

Meanwhile, I highly suggest you join me in the Club for me to help you achieve great eating habits,

All the best,

Sofia Abdelkafi R.D Nutritionist

Thanks for the information on how you eat (including the treats). I will try harder to be better at keeping track of my food consumption – I think it will help to have that focus so I can limit poorer food choices.
