A Day in the Life: Atkins 40

A day of satisfying, low carb deliciousness.

What’s in Atkins 40 One-Day Meal Plan?

If you have less than 40 pounds to lose, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or want to eat a wider variety of food, Atkins 40 is the plan for you. This Mediterranean-inspired one-day plan contains Vitamins C, E, B₆ and B₁₂, riboflavin, pantothenic acid, biotin, and key minerals. Over 38% of the fat comes from monounsaturated fat (olive oil, avocadoes, nuts and seeds). The fiber (34 grams) exceeds the recommendation of 28 grams per 2,000 calories for U.S. adults. You’ll find fiber in plenty of nutrient-rich, colorful vegetables, plus this one-day plan also features optimal protein levels (27% of total calories) in the form of chicken, eggs and salmon.

You’ll kick off your day with a fruity breakfast parfait bursting with berries, with Greek yogurt and a crumbled Atkins Blueberry Soft Baked Bar. Next up is an easy and tasty morning snack of sliced cucumber dipped in hummus. Lunch is a hearty harvest bowl showcasing quinoa, cauliflower rice, tomatoes, avocado, pine nuts, hemp hearts and chia seeds drizzled with basil pesto and topped with a hard-boiled egg and rotisserie chicken. Your afternoon snack satisfies your sweet tooth and gives you a caffeine boost with an Atkins Chai Tea Latte Shake and some almonds. Dinner features an Asian twist with salmon coated with a crispy seaweed-sesame seed crust, layered on a bed of spring lettuce, bell pepper avocado and tossed with a sesame oil dressing. Yum!
