5 Tips to Eat Like a Foodie and Stay Healthy

Do you love food? Do you get excited about new food trends and creative recipes? When you travel, do you first explore a list of restaurants before you even find a hotel or decide which attractions to visit? I do, and I know I’m not alone. My Instagram feed is proof. I love photographing food, eating new foods, learning the story behind the food, and talking to people responsible for the food I eat, whether it be farmers, producers or chefs. Cooking is my form of relaxation and I get a kick out of hanging out with people who love food just as much as I do. For some people food is merely sustenance. That’s ok. You have other interests. But, this post is not for you. This post is for foodies. This post is for people who want to eat like a foodie and stay healthy.

According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, “a foodie is a person who enjoys and cares about food very much. A foodie is a person having an avid interest in the latest food fads”.

If that sounds like you, then this post is for you.

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to know a lot about food to be a foodie. Some people are snobs about food and they have been confused as foodies. The term may be overrated, yet no one has been able to come up with an alternative that best describes people like us. People who take pleasure in enjoying a good meal, a creative food pairing, an inventive plate presentation.

Unfortunately, People like us often struggle with keeping the pounds off, living healthy and staying fit. Let’s face it, when you like to indulge, it is easy to overdo it. But, I’m here to tell you it can be done. You can eat like a foodie and stay healthy. Staying fit is also possible and you can read my tips to Eat Like a Food Blogger and Stay Fit as a reference.

My goal is to live a Foodie Fit Life! I don’t always succeed. I still have 10 pounds I want to get rid of and time to shave off my running PR. But I keep learning, looking for new ways and consciously developing habits that will help me continue to live the life I want in a way that is not restrictive. Life is too short for that. The tips I share with you below are devised from these experiences and what has worked for me.

How to Eat Like a Foodie and Stay Healthy with GoEpicurista.com #SundaySupper #Nourish2Flourish

I am not a doctor or a nutritionist. I am a professional food travel writer and blogger who is always eating out – from new restaurant openings to multi-course wine dinners, charity galas and events. Those meals blow my caloric budget in one sitting. I am always in a rush. If I’m not out eating and exploring, I’m sitting at my dining room table, in front of the computer, writing and doing a million tasks required to run a website and be a digital influencer. This. All of this, is not a good recipe to stay healthy and keep the pounds off. When you’re on the go it’s easy to grab the first thing you find to eat, and that is not usually a healthy option. Quick and healthy are hard to come by. When you’re working from home, you’re sitting and it’s easy to reach for an unhealthy snack out of the pantry and snack mindlessly all day. I think you get the picture. The odds are stacked against us foodies to stay healthy.

How to Eat Like a Foodie and Stay Healthy with GoEpicurista.com #SundaySupper #Nourish2Flourish

Diets don’t work for foodies. Diets are restrictive and often repetitive. Who could be excited about eating baked chicken and steamed broccoli every night, or cabbage soup every day? How do you go out to eat with friends and be the one asking for a plain green salad with dressing on the side and a plain piece of chicken? It’s impossible. There’s a part of our mind and soul that’s turned off by that. And that’s why diets fail. Instead, here’s how to eat like a foodie and stay healthy.

Now you may think I’m crazy. How can I eat like a foodie and enjoy all the amazing foods of Instagram – from killer burgers, giant doughnuts, high-rise ice cream cones, churro cones, and bacon – and stay healthy? Especially when most foodie fads are incredibly indulgent and fattening and so difficult to resist.

Here’s the answer, you don’t resist.

You sample. You indulge. As long as you don’t have dietary restrictions and allergies, it’s perfectly fine to enjoy these guilty pleasures, in moderation. Balance is key. When I’m going out to a new restaurant or event at night, I eat a lean, veggie packed breakfast and lunch that day. I sample every dish put in front of me but I don’t finish it. And I always enjoy every bite. If you feel guilty about it, what’s the point? Live, enjoy and follow these tips below to eat like a foodie and stay healthy.

5 Tips To Eat Like a Foodie and Stay Healthy

1. Live in Color. Eat in Color!

“The more color in your life the happier you’ll be” my sister would say to me. She referred to my mostly black wardrobe, but I applied it to food instead. She was right. Colorful food does make me happier! It’s no secret, we eat with our eyes. Color pops! It makes the plate visually stunning. This is where foodies can’t resist pulling out their phone to take a picture of their plate. A colorful plate in front of you is much more exciting. This is where lots of veggies come in. The more veggies, in every color of the rainbow, the prettier your plate and the healthier the meal. I love that Mann’s Nourish Bowls are full of color. Green and orange vegetables especially are full of vitamins and nutrients. Think spinach, broccoli, kale, Swiss chard, sweet potato, carrots, butternut squash, and peppers.

The Southwest Chipotle bowl with sweet potatoes, yellow corn, black beans, kale, kohlrabi, cauliflower, and tomato salsa was not only fun it was tasty. Cauli-Rice Curry with green chickpeas and that beautiful curry yellow color was stunning.

You can eat these straight from the packaging but unless you’re on the go, I prefer to plate it on a pretty plate, add some fresh herbs and make it look like a restaurant meal. I guarantee you’ll enjoy it more.

2. Watch Your Size

When you love food, it’s easy to over indulge. This is why it’s important to watch your size, portion size that is. When I go out to eat, I prefer to share meals (and calories) with friends. Plus, I never finish a full plate. I’m often walking out with a doggy bag for lunch the next day. At home, I use the palm of my hand as a guide to measure my proteins (they say it’s equivalent to a deck of cards but who has a deck of cards around all the time?) According to the American Heart Association proteins should be around 3 oz and grains and pastas at around ½ cup. The good news is that veggies don’t really need to be measured so use those to fill you up. Nourish Bowls are perfectly portioned for one single-serve meal, which is awesome if you’re in a hurry to get a meal ready or you’re on the go. One bowl was actually more than one portion for me so I shared part of it with my husband. Each bowl only takes 3-4 minutes in the microwave and ranges in calories from 220-420. For lunch, I topped it with leftover proteins from dinner the night before. For dinner, I grilled chicken, lean beef like a strip or sirloin, shrimp, salmon or scallops seasoned simply with garlic salt and pepper. The sauces that come with the bowl were flavorful enough, I only added some fresh cracked pepper. It was easy, tasty and quick.

3. Plan Ahead

You’ve heard of Meal Prep? If you can master it, then my hat is off to you. You are in a great position to eat like a foodie and stay healthy. As much as I try, it hardly ever happens in my house. At least not in the way most would intend with a planned menu of new recipes, a detailed shopping list and pre-packaged portions. Juggling deadlines and a multitude of projects, travel schedules, and last minute invites to new restaurant openings, I don’t always know when I will be eating at home. My husband or I usually head to the grocery store in a rush and pick up the same staples we eat every week. Our meals consist mostly of grilled meats, fish or chicken, veggies and salads with lots of spices. It’s not ultra exciting but this is part of balancing healthy eating at home with indulging when eating out. A few things that work for us is buying larger packages of chicken breasts and salmon. We vacuum seal small bags of two portions and freeze, then each day we are eating at home we will pull one out of the freezer to make that night. If I know I will be home the following day for lunch, we will grill an extra portion to have for a quick lunch the next day. Adding this already cooked protein to the Nourish Bowl was perfect for a quick warm lunch with fresh veggies, grains and sauce. Best of all, it was ready in under 5 minutes total! I also liked that the bowls had all the veggies chopped and ready to go, and the sauce packet inside. This takes meal prep to a whole new level.

Easy to Prepare. Just add the sauce packet, mix and microwave!

4. Variety is the Spice of Life!

As a foodie, I like to try new foods, new combinations, new spices, sauces and food preparation techniques. It keeps food interesting. This is where those crazy food fads come from. A bored foodie invented them! Incorporating different ingredients, vegetables and grains you don’t normally eat into your diet not only keeps it exciting it’s also healthier. You hear time and time again that balance is key, that eating too much of one thing is not good for you. Variety is the spice of life! So here’s a tip. Incorporate a new vegetable into your diet each week, try a new spice, and experiment with ethnic foods different from your own.

How to Eat Like a Foodie and Stay Healthy with GoEpicurista.com #SundaySupper #Nourish2Flourish

Nourish Bowls feature a nice variety of vegetables I don’t normally purchase and had great sauces. Brussels sprouts, a foodie darling usually smothered in butter and bacon in restaurants gets a much healthier treatment with smoky sweet glaze mixed with brown rice, kohlrabi and kale in the “Smokehouse Brussels” bowl.

Kale, the superfood darling of the foodie world, ever since Gwyneth baked kale chips on Ellen in 2011 and Bon Appetit named 2012 the year of kale, is also in the Southwest Chipotle and Monterey Risotto.

How to Eat Like a Foodie and Stay Healthy with GoEpicurista.com #SundaySupper #Nourish2Flourish

Cauliflower, now said to be “The New Kale” according to food trend prognosticators, is appearing in more restaurant menus and in more creative ways than just simply part of a “steamed vegetable medley”. Cauliflower rice has offered those of us avoiding / reducing carbs with a guilt-free rice option and it was delicious in the Cauli-Rice Curry bowl. The curry sauce had the right balance of spices. Their five bowl varieties provide a great variety of flavors from roasted garlic, to smoky glaze, to Sriracha, Southwest chipotle and curry. By adding different proteins, the possibilities are endless.

5. Know Where Your Food Comes From

The story behind your food is important. I have enjoyed meeting farmers, producers and chefs and sharing their stories. In turn it’s made me appreciate what I eat even more. It’s also encouraged me to eat healthier as the more you know the better choices you make. I was happy to learn Mann’s is a family owned and operated company for three generations, since 1939. The Nucci and Ramsey families own and work within several areas of the organization. Their CEO, the majority of the board of directors, and over 65% of its shareholders are women, certified by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) since 2012 as a Women Owned business. That rocks!

Often when we see packaged foods in the grocery store, we immediately think it’s a big faceless corporation. Learning their history and dedication to providing high quality ingredients was the reason I decided to join the Sunday Supper Movement and be part of the “Nourish to Flourish with Mann’s Nourish Bowls” campaign. It was wonderful discovering this easy and nutritious way to create quick meals on the go that any foodie would love.

    Great tips Christina! I agree 100 percent! Keeping calories in check is challenge for me too I need to taste everything before it’s served. If it is good, sometimes it gets “tasted” again!

🍦 “Eat Ice Cream For Breakfast Day” was created in 2013 in honor of Malia Grace, by her mom and aunt after she lost her battle with cancer in 2010. Malia Grace loved ice cream and her family wanted to commemorate her birthday, 2/18, in a way that would be fitting for her. During her wish trip at Give Kids The World, she had the opportunity to eat ice cream for breakfast and it was a highlight of the family’s experience. 
🌎 Give Kids The World Village is an 89-acre, whimsical nonprofit in Central Florida that provides critically ill children and their families with magical week-long wish vacations at no cost. Every wish family is treated to accommodations, transportation, donated theme park tickets, all meals and snacks, nightly entertainment, and more. Since 1986, Give Kids The World has welcomed more than 182,000 families from all 50 states and 76 countries.
Stop by Kelly’s and pick up these awesome flavors! But, regardless of where you are, Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast in honor of Malia, and raise awareness for those who battle childhood cancer. 💛

💜 Feeling the lavender haze... One of my favori 💜 Feeling the lavender haze... One of my favorite foodie experiences of 2022 was dining at Salt & The Cellar by Michelin Chef Akira Back and spending the night at the new @ettehotel - a gorgeous boutique hotel with impeccable attention to detail! I even got to meet @chefakiraback 
So excited I’m going back tonight to check out their new Lipa Rooftop Bar & Restaurant and have reservations for Afternoon Tea next month! 
Add a visit to ette hotel to your Foodie Bucket List for 2023! 
A few favorites from my last visit:
🍸 Fantastic Zero-Proof Cocktails by @jarldevries: It’s Dry January all year long! Featured first is The Kraken, a gorgeous purple cocktail made with Butterfly Pea Flower Tea & Champagne Vinegar
✨ Toro Tartare: A gorgeous board with fatty tuna and accompaniments
✨ Akira Back Tuna Pizza: his famous dish is a Must Eat! 
✨ Spinach Oshitashi Salad: the most gorgeous salad I’ve ever seen! 
✨ NY Strip with Wasabi Kizami Butter, Chimichurri Sauce, & choice of gourmet salts. Amazing! Loved that Espresso salt
✨ Miso Black Cod, yuzu air, pickled cauliflower 
✨ Togarashi Fries & Kimchi Brussels
✨ Dessert: Yuzu Curd and Chocolate in a Cup
☕️ “Where The Cloud Ends” Zero-Proof espresso martini with Yuzu Tonic, Lemon Cordial, Espresso, 0% Coffee Liquor
💜 The lobby decor with lavender and green touches was dreamy.
🧺 They have a Laundry Museum! 
📕 The Book Room features incredible books. The giant picture book requires gloves to review as it is one of a few in the world! 
The hotel is focused on wellness and offers Wellness Suites completely equipped with a full gym!

Don’t let the casual vibe at @jujubysusuru fool Don’t let the casual vibe at @jujubysusuru fool you. The Kappo Bar Omakase experience with Chef Lewis Lin is out of this world (& Michelin-worthy!)
“irasshaimase / come in!” is what you hear first upon entering this revamped Pizza Hut building off Colonial Drive. Everyone is welcome at Juju, one of Orlando’s newest restaurants and one that belongs on every #OrlandoFoodie bucket list! 
I was invited to experience their Kappo Bar and it checked all the boxes for a truly amazing #MakeSomedayHappen experience.
The retro Japanese izakaya-style restaurant serves up a 10-course menu at the bar and a more casual a la carte menu in the dining room. 
Omakase menu changes regularly but always features the five primary cooking techniques (grilling, steaming, frying, simmering, and raw) using local and imported ingredients, in-house dry-aged fish, and binchotan charcoal-fired dishes. Everything is prepared right in front of you for an immersive experience.
And, Don’t miss the fun cocktails! I loved “That Old Pizza Hut” was like an orange creamsicle with Suntory Toki Whiskey served in a Pizza Hut cup! 
Make reservations and go check this Orlando restaurant off your bucket list.
Thank you Chef Lewis and Mai for your outstanding hospitality. I’ll be coming back soon!

Hello 2023! Why start the year on a diet? My new y Hello 2023! Why start the year on a diet? My new year’s resolution is to focus on self-care.  Eating healthy and exercising, sure. But also treating myself to more @gideonsbakehouse cookies, cakes & cold brews. Who’s with me? What will you treat yourself with this year?
You want something. Go Get It. Period!
This was my last purchase of 12/31/22... I wanted to start 2023 on a sweet note!
What if my 2023 resolution is to visit Gideon’s every month for their awesome limited-edition treats? 
I think that’s a resolution I can keep!  January’s Butterscotch flavors sound to die for.
Did you hear? The epic Banana Bread Chocolate Chip cookie is now part of the permanent lineup. While the Coffee Cake is my all-time favorite, this one is in the top 3! And, the original Peanut Butter Cold Brew is a must pairing.
What resolution will you set today? Go #MakeSomedayHappen 🎉 Happy New Year everyone!
