What could be easier? We tag our menu: Mindful Sodium Meals Our Mindful Sodium Meals have been designed with your health in mind. For those keeping an eye on their sodium intake, these meals contain fewer than 650 mg of sodium per serving, helping you to stay under The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommended sodium intake. Salt is not the only ingredient that brings flavor to a meal and that is why we have loaded each entrée with plenty of herbs and spices to pack a flavorful punch. Whether recommended by a doctor or part of your path to healthier eating, our Mindful Sodium Meals are a great fit for anyone working to reduce their sodium consumption. High Protein Meals Protein is a nutrient powerhouse serving a wide array of functions, from muscle repair and fluid balance to enzyme production. Understanding how important protein is inspired us to create a line of High Protein Meals that each contains at least 50 grams of high-quality protein per serving. Not only is protein important to nearly every cell in your body, but this nutrient also has the highest satiety value of all the macronutrients, keeping you full, satisfied and energized throughout the day. Our High Protein Meals will also help contribute to your daily need of iron, zinc and B12, three essential nutrients most often associated with animal protein. Lower Carb Meals While carbohydrates are essential nutrients and provide many important functions in your body, like being the main energy source for your nervous system, we understand many prefer to go light on their carb servings. To meet those preferences, we have developed our Lower Carb Meals that each contain fewer than 35 grams of carb per serving. You can expect hearty proteins, healthy fats and plenty of veggies while helping you stick to a lower carb lifestyle. Whether trying to shed a couple inches or keeping a close eye on blood sugar, our Lower Carb Meals can help you meet your goals. Lower Gluten Meals Gluten is a hot topic within nutrition and we understand many people try to limit their consumption, whether by choice or out of necessity. For those wanting to limit their gluten intake, we created our Lower Gluten Meals to suit your needs. While we are not a certified gluten-free facility, you can expect these meals to contain gluten-free ingredients, like lean proteins and veggies as well as gluten-free sauces and starches, like sweet potatoes. If you find you feel better with a little less gluten in your life, our Lower Gluten Meals are made for you! Lower Fat Meals Healthy fats, like those found in olive oil and salmon, can provide a lot of nutritional benefit, but we understand many individuals prefer to monitor their total fat intake. While this may benefit some medical conditions, and others may choose to do so to watch their weight, we have designed our Lower Fat Meals with fewer than 10 grams of fat per serving. Don’t worry; lower fat doesn’t have to mean flavorless. You’ll find these meals to be plenty flavorful with spices, herbs, sauces and hearty portions of protein and vegetables. If you have a medical diagnosis requiring a custom diet or have food allergies, require a gluten-free diet, you should consult your doctor before enjoying our meals.
