Deciding what to eat on any given day—especially when grocery shopping—can be overwhelming. Making sure you're getting an adequate amount of nutrients and enhancing your daily meals with an abundance of fresh produce doesn't have to be stressful, though. Keeping protein, vegetables, and healthy fats in mind is the best place to start. For a more zoomed-in look at a healthy meal plan, though, here's my (usual) daily meal routine.
Breakfast
Before eating anything, I'll start my day with a glass of water and a slice of lemon. My go-to morning mug usually contains matcha instead of coffee. Only on certain occasions, when I feel low-energy or am traveling, will I opt for a coffee—and if I do, it's almost always a cappuccino with plant-based milk.
