How’s everyone doing? Not sure about you and yours, but our crew has been all over the place this last month - between work and no work, school and no school, sports and no sports, seeing friends and loved ones and distancing… With the holiday season upon us and the end of 2020 approaching at lightning speed, it’s hard to tell up from down anymore, get everything planned (or canceled), and cultivate the giving and hopeful spirit of the season. So I thought to myself, what might resonate best with all of you? What might help you close out 2020 with a little less stress and a little more peace or joy amid the chaos?
Need a partner in chaos and nutrition management, we’re here for you! When thinking about meal planning and prep, consider OvaEasy Egg in a Cup. It’s our little effort, no mess way to enjoy scrambled eggs. Just add water, microwave, and enjoy. Each cup packs approximately 12-13 grams of protein and comes in three delicious flavors – Mediterranean Frittata even boasts the colors of the season. Add this to your breakfast meal plan or even as a snack option, take it to work, and just pop it in the microwave.
OvaEasy Egg Crystals are all natural, whole, dried eggs that taste just like their fresh counterpart, only they have an extra-long shelf life and don’t require refrigeration. Keep them as a pantry staple, so if you run out of eggs from the holiday baking, you can still make a nutritious and delicious hearty breakfast for your crew. Scramble them or make a quick omelet, try them in fried rice, or even steak and eggs. You’ll feel better knowing you’ve filled up on nutrients and complete proteins rather than too many processed sugary treats.
If you or yours prefer smoothies (great way to sneak in extra fruits and veggies for the littles), OvaEasy Egg White Protein is the perfect addition to your cupboard. Our protein checks all the boxes: it has all the amino acids needed for muscle recovery/growth, tastes delicious, and mixes well. Whether you’re making a nutritious snack, meal substitute for your family, or trying to hit your macros after a tough workout, it doesn’t hurt to keep a bag or two of this around.
The Bottom Line
We can feel overwhelmed by all of the tasks we need to accomplish this time of year, especially with seemingly less time and more people in our space – it’s 2020 after all. I’m not sure about you, but as I’ve felt my stress level reach an all-time high, and I’ve noticed myself struggling to find joy in the people, places, and things I usually do, practicing the few tips I offered above has started to shift my perspective, little by little. I’m still dazed, but the joy is creeping back in, and it feels really good. So let me pay it forward and share what’s working for me, with you, and when it comes to your kitchen, let OvaEasy help. Happiest of holiday seasons and almost 2021! Check back in next week for a quick note and a fun holiday recipe.
