Snack: 2-3 Brazil nuts.

Hypothyroid Meal Plan – Day #9 Tuesday

Breakfast: Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie. If you have a blender then smoothies are a quick and delicious breakfast. I recommend almond milk over regular as it has far less calcium (for those taking thyroid hormone in the morning). All-natural peanut butter (usually at least 95% peanuts) is the healthiest choice, but it’s thick!

Lunch: Gluten-free sandwich with tinned tuna (or your favourite sandwich topping).

Dinner: Low Carb Zucchini Lasagna. Swap tomato sauce for canned diced tomatoes. Consider adding in eggplant and mushrooms too, and gluten-free pasta sheets if you miss your pasta.

Snack: 1 cup of carrot and cucumber sticks + cottage cheese or hummus (DIY Spicy Peanut Butter Hummus).

Hypothyroid Meal Plan – Day #10 Wednesday

Breakfast: Coconut Breakfast Quinoa. Make a big batch of this for leftovers, and swap nuts in for coconut flakes. Coconut milk can also be swapped for any milk type.

Lunch: Tuna and Cannellini Bean Salad. Easy and full-flavoured, this salad gets better the day after as the flavours develop.

Dinner: Chicken Broccoli Rice Skillet.

Snack: 1-2 handfuls of roasted cashews or almonds (30-50 grams). Roasted eliminates anti-nutrients.

Breakfast: Roasted Chilli Frittata. A Jamie Oliver recipe that blackens the chillies to calm the heat and releases their sweetness. If you have other leftover vegetables, throw them in.

Snack: 1 banana
