Snacking provides a good moment to eat the recommended foods you might not otherwise eat each day — like a serving or two of low-fat dairy for some additional protein and minerals, or fruit and nuts to get additional micronutrients. A half cup of low-fat yogurt combined with a handful of berries and some almonds makes for a filling, easy snack. Graham crackers with ricotta cheese is another good option, as are vegetable sticks with reduced-salt guacamole or hummus dip. Each of these snacks come in at less than 200 calories each, as long as you stick to moderate serving sizes.

I’ve written about them before, but here’s another shout-out to Mealmade, which is a lifesaver when you’re following a Paleo-type meal plan and don’t have dinner mapped out.

The roasted chicken with vegetables and cauliflower mash, and steak tacos in almond tortillas are tried and true favorites. Mealmade also makes a few Paleo baked goods or other sweet endings, which is a bonus. Also, they've created a Super Bowl menu for those who still want to indulge mindfully. Dairy-free spinach artichoke dip, anyone? To note: It can get pricey — meals run about $12-$16, and another $4.99 is tacked on for delivery. www.mealmade.com
