Have you ever eaten lunch, felt full for like… five minutes, and then suddenly wanted chips, cookies, or literally anything sweet or salty?
You’re not alone. Cravings happen to all of us—kids, grown-ups, even grandma! But guess what? You can fight those cravings and feel full longer. The secret? 🍽️ FUNBowls!
So, what are FUNBowls?
They’re meals made of four simple parts:
- Base for fuel – This could be rice, quinoa, sweet potatoes, or even whole grain pasta. These give you energy!
- Protein for satisfaction – Think chicken, eggs, beans, tofu, or even Greek yogurt. Protein helps keep your belly full.
- Veggies for nutrients – Broccoli, spinach, carrots, cucumbers… pick your favorites! Veggies help your body stay strong.
- Toppings for flavor – Cheese, avocado, seeds, sauces, herbs… a little fun on top goes a long way!
Put it all in a bowl, mix it up, and BOOM—you’ve got a FUNBowl that keeps you full and happy. No more mid-day snack attacks or late-night fridge raids!
Why do FUNBowls work?
Because they have the perfect combo of everything your body needs:
- Carbs for energy
- Protein for fullness
- Fiber from veggies to keep your tummy feeling good
- Flavor to keep it fun and exciting (no boring meals here!)
When your body gets what it needs, it doesn’t bug you with cravings all the time. It’s like giving your body a high-five and saying, “I got you!”
Try this FUNBowl idea:
- Base: Your favorite pasta
- Protein: Ground beef, turkey or chicken
- Colors: Shredded lettuce, tomatoes, corn
- Toppings: Some enchilada sauce, cheese, cilantro… whatever you love to put on a taco!
YUM. Easy. Done. 🙌
So the next time you’re feeling snacky, ask yourself: Did I eat a FUNBowl today?
