430 calories = a meal, and not a very balanced one,

I agree that's a big fraction of many women's calorie goal.

I'm not so convinced it's unbalanced: That's a lot of protein, the hemp hearts have a good amount of healthy fats, and between the hemp hearts and yogurt, there are some useful contributions to micros. The B-12 in the yogurt may be particularly useful for those of us who are vegetarian.

I have a pretty large calorie goal, and that’s meal-sized for me. I’d rather have two or three smaller snacks, spread out further.

However…..OP is presumably a fairly new user. When I started, I came up with a breakfast smoothie that I thought was thrilling, From memory, it included dry oats almond milk, cottage cheese, almond butter, cacao, and molasses. It tasted just like a Wendy’s Frosty. It was delicious, chocolatey, filling, and used up almost a third of my calorie goal at the time, but I went to bed looking forward to getting up and enjoying my carefully devised breakfast treat the next morning.

Experimenting and learning to come up with alternatives to the candy bars, loaf of white mountain bread, and donuts that were my “before” breakfast was instrumental to continuing to learn and tinker and figure out how best to use my calories and fool about with macros.

I would imagine OP is in that same stage, and congratulations to her for having the chutzpah to change things up.
