33 Shakeology Recipes for Every Comfort-Food Craving
You’re stuck at home and, for better or worse, can’t stop bingeing on your social media news feed.
The other thing you can’t stop gorging on?
Sweets and snacks and all the carbs because: 1. stress. 2. boredom. 3. you’re never more than 500 feet away from your kitchen.
If all that sugar is taking a toll, the first order of business is to break that habit.
Try going for a walk, doing a streaming workout, diving into a book or binge-worthy TV show, or calling a friend – anything that takes your mind off of eating.
If that doesn’t work, feed your stress-eating impulses with better-for-you options that taste just like the real deal.
Ahead, 33 comfort-food recipes that will satisfy your cravings, without wreaking havoc on your healthy eating habits —provided they don’t become your habit.
(And, P.S. they’re all delicious!)
