My Current Hyper-fixation Meal (for hormone health)

I’m currently sitting in my kitchen, enjoying a very slow morning, and thought I’d share my current hyper-fixation meal because it’s been on serious repeat. It’s just that good… and just that simple.

The inspiration for this meal is… #hormonehealth.

One day I was throwing stuff together in the kitchen, per usual, trying to get in as many fats as I could. This is what I ended up with and it has stuck with me throughout the last couple months. It gives me snack plate vibes, which I love because sometimes I genuinely cannot decide what sounds good.

So… Eating for Your Hormones

Lately, I’ve been extremely focused on restoring my cycle, and let me tell you… fats are so important for that. Since I’m currently low on estrogen, I’m paying close attention to the types of fats I eat. Essential fatty acids like omega-3s and omega-6s are critical building blocks for hormones. Our bodies can’t make them on their own, so we have to get them through food.

And the benefits go way beyond hormone health. These fats help reduce inflammation, support brain function, and honestly just make everything in the body run a little smoother.

That leads me to the famous plate… whatever we want to call it.

Ingredients

Use however much of each your body is craving!

  • Avocado
  • Eggs
  • Spinach
  • Cherry tomatoes
  • Cottage cheese
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Fruit of choice (see “My Extra Thoughts” below)
  • Olive oil, avocado oil, or ghee
  • Salt + pepper

Directions

(And I say “directions” lightly, because there’s lots of flexibility here!)

  1. Heat things up: Start by heating a pan over medium heat. Add a little oil and toss in a handful of spinach. Sauté until it’s nice and wilted.
  2. Scramble time: Lower the heat slightly, then add your eggs. I like to crack and stir mine directly in the pan, but you can scramble them in a bowl beforehand if you prefer. Season with a little salt and pepper (or whatever you love), and cook until they’re just how you like them.
  3. Prep your plate: While the eggs are cooking, cut up your toppings. I halve the tomatoes, slice an avocado, scoop some cottage cheese, and cut up whatever fruit I have on hand. I like to season everything with a bit of salt, pepper, and a dash of everything but the bagel seasoning.
  4. Finish strong: Once your eggs are done, sprinkle some parmesan on top and transfer everything to your plate.
  5. Ta-daaaaa! We’re basically chefs now.

My Extra Thoughts

I’ve included a chart on the best fruits to eat depending on where you are in your cycle. But this is just the start! I’m excited to dive deeper into cycle syncing… sharing the best foods to nourish your body in each phase, along with practical tips for what your body truly needs, from movement and rest to productivity and mindset.

So that’s the plate… simple, satisfying, and built with intention.
Whether you’re deep in your hormone health journey or just wanting a new go-to, this combo’s an easy win.

I’ll be sharing more soon on syncing your meals (and life) with your cycle, so stay tuned if that’s something you’re curious about. And if you give this a try, or put your own spin on it, I’d love to hear what you’re loving lately.

Here’s to slow mornings, full plates, and feeling your best…

XO,
