5. Grains On-The-Go!

The Trick:

Get your daily dose of fiber from a to-go cup of whole grains.

Why It Works:

We tend to miss out on certain food groups that give essential nutrients due to “lack of time”, so why not get these whole grain “Q cups” to go? The concept is similar to an instant soup cup; just add water and its ready to eat!

Jessica Fishman Levinson, a culinary nutrition expert had this to say about them. “Q Cups can also be the base of a meal. Add some protein and lunch is done.” She says you can do the same for breakfast as well with instant oats. “Add berries and nuts and it makes a quick, easy, healthy breakfast to help get you out the door,” she says.
