Balance Your Plate. Fuel Your Body. 🍽️

Keep it simple with the Plate Method:

🥦 ½ = non-starchy veggies
🍗 ¼ = lean protein
🍠 ¼ = quality carbs
🥑 + healthy fats for balance

Build better meals with real food choices:
✅Protein: lean meats, fish, shellfish, eggs
✅Veggies: leafy greens, cruciferous veggies, colorful mix
✅Carbs: sweet potatoes, squash, beans, whole grains, fruit
✅Fats: avocado, nuts, seeds, olive oil, coconut oil

Your meals don’t need to be perfect—just balanced and consistent 👊
