Food recommendations for Fed Up Challenge:

-100% whole wheat breads or Sprouted grain bread (Ezekiel 4:9 is a good one. It’s usually in the healthy/organic freezer section)
-Ezekiel also makes pastas and tortillas. Both are great options when trying to stay from white flours and added sugars.
-oatmeal
-brown rice
-meats and seafood. Watch out for sugary marinades and sauces.
-deli meat for sandwiches (Boar’s Head All Natural) is a good one with no added sugar)
-bag of baby carrots – great for snacking
-beans
-sweet potatoes
-raw nuts – great for snacking
-fruit, fruit, and more fruit (watermelon is great for dessert!)
-veggies – grab several varieties
-cheese
-cottage cheese
-eggs (hard-boiled eggs are easy to eat for breakfast when you’re in a hurry)
-100% whole wheat pasta or gluten free pasta (check the label for hidden sugars!)
- Nut butters (all natural no added sugar)
- use olive oil and vinegar instead of sugary salad dressings
- drink water, seltzer, unsweetened tea and black coffee

Snack Ideas:
-apples dipped in peanut butter
-plain yogurt with lots of chopped fruit
-cottage cheese with fruit mixed in
-toasted Ezekiel bread toasted with some plain butter or peanut butter
-carrots or celery dipped in your own homemade ranch dressing
