Healthy Recipes for Your Active Swimmers

Enrolling your kids in swim lessons not only teaches them a lifelong skill, but also the importance and fun of staying active! Swimming is one of the only sports to use almost every muscle in your body, so it’s important to ensure your kids are getting the right nutrients in their diet. While some kids might have no problem reaching for the raw fruits and veggies, others may be a bit more difficult. Check out these fun, healthy recipes packed with nutrients to fuel even your pickiest eater’s pool time fun!

Breakfast Option: Breakfast Quesadillas

This protein-packed breakfast quesadilla (20 grams of protein per quesadilla!) is the perfect start to a busy day for your active kiddos. This recipe can even be made the night before and frozen overnight. Just pop it in the microwave the next morning and serve with a side of fresh fruit for a delicious breakfast!

Lunch Option: Chicken-Avocado Roll-Ups

These great pinwheel sandwiches take only 20 minutes to make and include avocado, chicken, bell peppers, onions and cheese for a great lunch after swim lessons!

Snack Option: Protein Energy Balls

From lemon poppyseed to peanut butter and jelly, these protein energy balls are the perfect snack throughout the day. Each recipe takes only 15 minutes to make, so it’s easy to whip up while your kids are outside building up an appetite!

Dinner Option: Healthy Classic Meatloaf Recipe

Penny from SavvyMiamiMom wanted to try out healthy versions of her family’s favorite recipes and came across this recipe for a healthier meatloaf for dinner! Nervous that her family wouldn’t enjoy this recipe, Penny soon discovered it was just as tasty as a typical meatloaf - “They didn’t even realize it had oatmeal in it!” She paired it with a side of steamed veggies and a baked potato, but choose any of your favorite sides to compliment this dish!
