Hello Bloggers! As promised, here is the overview of the information from day three of the “Girl Talk” camp. TNT taught the young ladies about mindful eating & mindless eating, along with some fun snack recipes to make.
For mindful eating, each person should be aware of two very important things: their hunger and their fullness. Mindful eating is being conscious of what you are consuming and putting into your body. It is important to eat when you are actually hungry and quit when you are full. Most people sit in front of a television and just eat from the bag or box and often times are not even paying attention to their body telling them, “Stop, I’m Full!!!” and in turn continue to eat, which obviously is considered to be Mindless Eating.
Next, the TNT Health Educators went over Mindful/Mindless eating with the girls, each girl had the opportunity to make healthy snacks from simple recipes. Two of the favorites were; trail mix and “Ants on a Log”.
Here are the recipes for you to make!
Trail Mix: Mix wheat chex mix, rice/corn chex mix, pretzels, raisins, cranberries, cheerios and animal crackers. You can also add almonds or peanuts to the mix if you desire.
Ants on a Log: Take a portion of celery and fill the center with peanut butter, cream cheese, or hummus and place raisins or cranberries on top (Like little ants) and Enjoy!
