It’s 8:30 pm and your kids are home from their evening sports practices. Dinner has already been served or was that an after school snack? Meal times become blurry to the young athletes and tired parents. How did your kitchen turn into a 24 hour service restaurant? What do you do when your little athlete says they are starving in the late hours before bedtime????
Here are a few quick and easy mini meal ideas:
** Avocado toast topped with a fried egg.
** Naan bread pizza (Trader Joe’s garlic Naan bread, with tomato sauce, cheese and top it off with turkey pepperoni for extra protein)
** Smoothie bowl (create your favorite smoothie with fruit, yogurt and nonfat milk and top with fresh berries and nuts)
** Baked potato with melted cheese and broccoli
** Whole grain waffles with nut butter, sliced banana, berries and a glass of milk
