The Best Weight Loss Foods That Take Less Than 5 Minutes to Prepare

Eating healthy can be such a chore, especially when there is a lot of cooking and prep time involved. The fact is that most people will fail on a strict diet if it takes too much work or time dedication in the kitchen. However, the good news is that you do not have to become a professional chef to eat healthy foods or to lose weight. Here are the top weight loss foods that are a breeze to prepare – with very little clean up.

Eggs

Many people may think that cooking eggs in the morning is too time consuming. However, it can be as quick as pouring yourself a bowl of cereal. The upside is that eggs are much more nutritious for you. Just make sure you have a non-stick pan, throw in a little butter or coconut oil, and crack your eggs in. You can throw in chopped vegetables too. From cooking to clean up, the whole process should take about five minutes.

You can also prep eggs in advanced. For example, hard boil a dozen eggs and keep them in the fridge for a quick snack. Another thing you can do is to make bake several egg quiches/cups in muffin tins and stick them in the freezer. When you need a quick breakfast, just take them out of the freezer and reheat.

Smoothies

Blending a nutritious smoothie is a great way to get a balanced meal quickly. Plus, it is easy to take on the go. Just simply throw in your milk of choice, leafy greens, protein powder, your fruit of choice, and either some coconut oil or chia seeds. Just like that you have all of your food groups in one yummy drink.

Canned Fish

Canned tuna and salmon are packed with protein and very little calories. They are the perfect thing to eat when you are hungry, but don’t have a lot of calories to spare. You can always throw in a tablespoon of mayonnaise, but there are many other healthy options to try too, such as lemon juice and olive oil, avocado, or even hummus.

Greek Yogurt and Cottage Cheese

These two foods are easy to grab and eat without any prep work. Of course, you can add more to them, such as fruit or hemp seeds. They are high in protein and low in calories, making them a great snack.

Who says eating healthy has to be time consuming? Next time you are tempted to grab fast food or convenience food, remind yourself how easy these healthy staples are to make.
