Welcome
Hi, I’m Adam Rivers, husband, dad of two little ones, early riser, and someone who used to think meal prep was only for gym bros or influencers showing off perfectly portioned plates on Instagram.
But let me tell you something I learned the hard way:
Skipping meals, surviving on vending machine snacks, and calling black coffee “breakfast” doesn’t cut it.
I’m 38, and for a long time, I was stuck in that cycle. I’d hit the ground running every morning, work deadlines, school drop-offs, errands, nonstop motion and by 2 p.m., I was burnt out, foggy, and craving something real.
So I made a decision:
If I was going to keep up with my life, I needed to fuel it properly.
But I didn’t want meal prep that required 3 hours, 12 containers, and a spreadsheet.
I wanted simple, energizing, good tasting food, recipes I’d actually enjoy making and eating.
That’s where StackSipSnack.com was born.
Stack Sip Snack Repeat
I started experimenting in the kitchen.
I started experimenting in the kitchen. I focused on creating meals that were quick to make, full of flavor, and left me feeling energized, not weighed down. I began developing a simple rhythm: protein-rich breakfasts, wholesome snacks, and refreshing, nutrient-packed drinks that kept me going throughout the day. No more skipping meals or reaching for processed junk. I found a way to fuel my body with food that felt good and fit into my lifestyle, without stress or perfection.
What I discovered was this:
You don’t need a meal plan to look perfect.
You just need meals that work, meals that fit your lifestyle, fuel your body, and taste like something you’d crave.
At StackSipSnack.com , I share real recipes for real people, the kind of food that gives you energy without stress, guilt, or a ton of cleanup.
What You’ll Find Here
Everything I post falls into one of the three pillars of Stack Sip Snack:
- Stack: High-protein, high-flavor breakfasts like pancakes, waffles, and savory scrambles. Because how you start your morning matters.
- Sip: Smoothies, shakes, and hydration drinks that are as functional as they are refreshing. From iced coffee protein blends to DIY electrolyte drinks, I’ve got you.
- Snack: Jerky, protein bars, energy bites, and trail friendly treats. Grab and go never tasted (or performed) this good.
Whether you’re commuting, working from home, hiking on the weekend, or just trying to make better food choices, you’ll find something here that fits.
Who I’m Creating This For
This blog is for busy people who need fuel that fits into a busy, real life.
You don’t need to count every gram of protein.
You don’t need a six pack or a personal trainer.
You just want food that makes you feel better, think sharper, and move stronger.
So if you're:
- A parent trying to wrangle kids and still eat a decent breakfast
- A fitness beginner or casual gym goer tired of plain chicken and rice
- A food lover who refuses to give up flavor in the name of health
- A weekend adventurer packing snacks for the trail
- Or just you, trying to feel a little better today than yesterday…
You're in the right place.

Let’s leave the diet rules behind and focus on what really works:
Nourishing meals that taste amazing and keep up with your life.
