Coconut Cilantro Red snapper, Argentinian shrimp 🔸soy parmesan sweet potatoes 🔸 roasted asparagus.
I find it’s easier to keep it fresh while on vacation. We do a mix of wild caught fish from the market, burgers & tacos for dinner & we eat out at least once (there are a lot fresh food restaurants here in Hilton head 🙌🏻).
🏖️Beach Snacks
🔸Chopped veggies
🔸avocado (easy to cut & eat with spoon on the beach)
🔸my husband loves pimento cheese so we’ve got that around too
🔸🍎 & chopped🍍
🔸siete & 🥨 chips are also great for dipping
🔸🧂 n vinegar almonds are a family favorite
🔸dates
🔸nilla wafers can’t be left out (although I do mainly leave them out of my diet- the ingredients are a no go for where I’m at in my gut healing journey)
🔸roasted Turkey, wickels pickles & basil sandwiches (Costco has a compliant option for turkey meat! Check out the middle slides & you’ll see a picture),
🔸salmon salad (mayo, lemon, japeleno & celery mixed with wild caught canned salmon)
🔸splindrift & other fun non alcoholic drinks (see one of my favorites in the slides)
*This is primarily what you’ll see in our coolers at the beach. It’s all about balance. 80/20 everyday.
My weakness is chocolate but I’m more inclined to over indulge at home then here on vacation because the heat & being in the sun all day causes me to flare up enough as it is. Adding too many sweets or breads along with long beach days is a bad combo for me. I also choose not to drink although I may have a drink if I’m feeling it that day. It’s just that right when I start sipping I can usually feel my mouth swell & I get upper digestive unrest so… it typically is a no go for me.
It’s taken me a long time to get to a place where I’ve detached from food as a source of fun and while I DO find pleasure in eating I just don’t put as much emphasis on it. My pleasure is mainly found in being in my body & connecting with the people around me too. Beautiful food that fuels, heals & wakes me up is just a bonus ⭐️
I hope this helps as so many of us are vacationing right now! Let me know if you have any questions or want me to explain more about the food & vacationing philosophy I share in my training & with my clients in the comments 👇🏻.
