PASSOVER GUIDE PART I: THE SHOPPING LIST

Passover can be challenging for those who strictly observe the dietary guidelines. So many of the foods 4Q clients rely on in their day-to-day lives are not actually approved for the Passover holiday. However, at the 4Q Method, we don’t believe that circumstance should get in the way of wellness and weight loss goals, which is why we created this guide. So if you are on a wellness and weight loss journey, this guide will get you through the Passover holiday completely unscathed.

Because there is so much to digest (pun intended!), the guide is divided into two parts: the first part we will talk about what to buy so that your fridge and pantry are fully stocked. The second part we’ll go over recipe recommendations and general dietary guidelines so that you can maintain your wellness goals, stay satisfied, and never feel deprived.

Now, let’s get shopping!
