Volume eating for weight loss
Caine’s approach to dinner is rooted in the concept of volume eating, recognizing the need to feel satiated without compromising on flavor or nutrition. “This is the exact method I use for dinner time that has helped me lose 10 pounds and keep the weight off,” she said. “As a volume eater and someone who needs to feel full, the normal amount of food you’re ‘supposed to eat’ is kind of measly. And I don’t know about you but will definitely not satisfy me. So let’s transform her,” she said, referring to her Mexican salad, which she says is one of her favorite meals.
The key components of Caine’s Mexican salad include avocado, cheese, beans, tomato, onions, and corn—a colorful and nutrient-rich medley that forms the foundation of her satisfying dinner. To add protein, she opts for a turkey burger, though she notes that other lean proteins, like salmon or chicken, are also excellent choices.
"Now here’s how we bulk her up," Caine says as she adds a generous portion of spinach or romaine lettuce, emphasizing the importance of filling the bowl to the brim for maximum volume with minimal calories. You can't underestimate the power of those leafy greens!
For dressing, Caine shares her favorite combination of balsamic vinegar, apple cider vinegar, and coconut amino acids—a flavorful blend that enhances the salad without adding unnecessary calories. "Look at all those colors," she says as she shows the final product, showcasing her vibrant and generously portioned meal.
To complete the experience, Caine enjoys seaweed snacks alongside her salad, relishing in the satisfaction of a meal that not only supports her weight loss goals but also brings joy to her taste buds. There are so many benefits to seaweed!
With her simple yet delicious dinner recipe, Caine proves that eating healthily and losing weight can go hand in hand, leaving TikTok users inspired to embark on their own journey toward a healthier lifestyle—one satisfying salad at a time.
