Are you curious what the best food trends are going to be in 2018?
Whats going to dethrone seaweed andcoconut oilto claim the crown as the next “superfood”?
(Or maybe well stop using that term altogether, that would be the best trend of all!
But I digress.)
As you could imagine, dietitians from all over the U.S. and Canada look forward to it every year.
Thats why single serves are so usefulits built-in portion control.
Toss them into your work bag or keep them in your desk; youll never go hungry again!
Here are my picks for new items in this category:Mighty Muffinsare a high-protein muffin from Flapjacked.
With 20 grams of protein, theyre the perfect portable snack!
For another high-protein snack, I lovedStarkist Tuna CreationsandSelects E.V.O.O.
They even come with their own fork, and are each around 70 to 100 calories.
My faves in this category were: Young coconut “jerky,” fromCocoburg.
Turns out, this jerky was yummy!
I tried all three flavorsginger teriyaki, chili lime, and original, and they were all fantastic!
Theyre chewy and mild, with flavorings that actually taste great.
I also love and recommend the probiotic Kraut Krisps fromFarmhouse Culture.
Like a tortilla chip but better, these are crispy and zesty.
In terms of the probiotic, these chips are legit, with the strainbacillus coagulansadded into the mix.
Every bit helps, though!
Popped Sorghum fromPop I.Q.is like little bits of popcorn sprinkled with cheddar and other flavors.
A gluten-free ancient grain, sorghum has more protein and fiber than popcorn.
Nuts and seeds are here to stay…and thats a good thing.
Full of fiber and good fats, they boost nutrition in almost anything you put them in.
Now companies are taking nut and seed-based products to a new level by offering them in different concoctions.
I really hope she enjoyed it!
Yum Butterhas a new line of nut butters in a squeeze pouches (no more mess!)
that win the award for best flavors and best intentions.
These nut and seed butters are made with fair trade ingredients, and they taste great.
Four words: chocolate espresso peanut butter.
With around the same number of calories as regular peanut butter, these are one of my top picks!
They tasted really good, too.
Lets face it: Most of us dont hydrate enough.
I get it, some of you dont like plain water.
The new drinks make it easy for you to drink more and stay healthy.
They taste just like kombucha!
Just mix into hot milk and go.
It comes in unsweetened, original, and vanilla flavors, and has 6 grams of protein per serving.
CocoLibrecoconut water with protein takes ordinary coconut water and adds 20 grams of grass-fed milk protein per serving!
Remember, food trends come and go, buthealthy eatingis always important.
