Feast While Fasting: Satisfying Meals That Make Intermittent Fasting a Breeze

Meal 21: Kimchi Fried Cauliflower Rice with Tofu and Scallions

This low-carb spin on fried rice uses cauliflower rice stir-fried in sesame oil with cubed tofu, kimchi, and scallions. The kimchi adds gut-friendly probiotics, a spicy kick, and depth of flavor, while tofu brings plant protein and satiety. Cauliflower rice keeps it light yet filling—great for those who want to avoid refined carbs during their eating window. Top with a fried egg or avocado slice for bonus nutrients. This dish is perfect for breaking a fast with something bold, warming, and energizing—without slowing you down. It’s comfort food with a metabolic edge.

Meal 22: Smoked Salmon and Avocado Nori Rolls

Skip the rice and try these low-carb nori rolls filled with smoked salmon, creamy avocado, cucumber, and a smear of cream cheese or hummus. Wrapped tightly and sliced like sushi, they’re packed with omega-3s, healthy fats, and clean protein—all in a handheld, refreshing package. Add a drizzle of tamari or a sprinkle of sesame seeds for flavor depth. These rolls are perfect for a light yet satisfying meal that won't weigh you down. They support brain function, heart health, and metabolic balance—ideal for when you want something quick, cool, and nourishing during your eating window.
