11 TikTok Food Trends That Are Actually Worth The Hype

September 13, 2022 · In: Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch, Nutrition

I am always very weary of heading into the TikTok app, every time I do I know I’m just going to get sucked into it and it’s so easy to spend an excessively long time on the app. But tiktok isn’t just for the Gen Z and the younger generations with their fancy dance routines. Viral trends include food video’s too and over the last year, there have been some absolute corkers on there. So to save you the time and stress, here are 11 of my favourite healthy Tiktok food trends and viral sensations that I think have hit the mark.

It’s the most addictive social media app there is, but I suppose that there is a real reason for that. The content on there is really bloody good, and viral food trends are abundant with wellness content creators, and it’s not just your average avocado toast or overnight oats that seem to have been done a million times and more. Some of the tiktok users are highly questionable, with one of the most memorable tiktok food trends, the supposedly healthy coke fad that was going around. I didn’t try it myself but saw enough videos of people saying it tasted like crap, I’ll just drink normal coke if I actually want to drink some thanks.

There is a whole host of toxicity on the platform, but there is also a lot of incredibly talented people on there sharing popular dishes but with really creative content, with a better way to put a spin on your favourite foods and finding new ways to change up an already delicious recipe.

So I thought I’d write this article to save you hours of your life by not having to fully enter the app to which of the biggest tiktok food trends and food hacks are actually worth trying out.

Let me know if you try them out and which one you enjoy the most.

1. Pesto Eggs On Toast aka Pegsto

@amywilichowski

#eggs #pestoeggs #homecook

♬ cooking video – cooking

Eggs on toast is a staple meal in my household on those mornings or lunchtimes when I do have the time to prepare eggs. These have become a new go-to and are definitely worth the hype as they are so damn simple to make.

Get the bread of your choice, pop it in the toaster, fry your eggs in pesto instead of your normal cooking oil. In the recipe, she also adds avocado and ricotta cheese, and red pepper flakes, but I have also tried it with just the pesto and eggs and it’s just as delicious. It’s a recipe that you can mix up to your own taste.

2. TikTok Wraps

@simplefood4you

World famous tortilla wrap @SmakapåTrollhättan this Friday 💥 @citytrollhattan #recipe #cooking #foodie #foodtiktok #food #foryou #fyp

♬ BIZCOCHITO – ROSALÍA

Again another recipe that you can really customise and change it up with a whole host of different fillings that you could choose from. The idea is that you fill each quadrant of the wrap with a different filling. Slice 1/2 way through, fold the quadrants and then toast. Genius!

3. 3 Ingredient Banana Pancakes

@mistermezsskitchen

3 INGREDIENTS BANANA PANCAKES #pancakes #banana #bananapancakes #breakfast #tiktoktaughtme #thisisbossinglybossing #breakfastideas #bananas #3ingredientsrecipes #tiktokpartner #easypancake #easyrecipes

♬ original sound – Mistermezss kitchen

Now in all fairness I have been making these for years, these are certainly not new, but I was still happy to see this one doing the rounds. Banana pancakes are one of my favourite weekend breakfast meals. You can also make these by replacing the flour with oats if you are looking to go gluten free, and blitz them in the blender. They just doing get quite as fluffy as with flour. But either works well. He talks about adding chocolate chips but that is completely optional if you are wanting to keep it on the healthier side.

4. Sesame Crispy Chicken

@simple.home.edit

Ultimate easy dinner for when you feel like ditching takeaway. Sticky Sesame Chicken. Make sure you’re following for more easy family dinners! Recipe in the comments. #easyrecipe #easydinner #stickychicken #familydinner #food #recipes #fyp #foryoupage #chicken #simplerecipe #lazycooking #homecooking

♬ original sound – Nicole

I love this tiktok video and recipe and it’s super easy to make. A great option if you are wanting to do your own at home fakeaway. In fact the last few times I have had this, I would say it’s even better than a takeaway and will save you money and is less calories.

5. 3 Ingredient Ice Cream

@jaxfoodhax

INSTANT ICE CREAM : 2 + ingredients & you’re in creamy heaven. #fyp #fypage #jfhx #cooking #icecream #easy #food #recipe #foodhacks

♬ original sound – jaxfoodhax

I mean come on. Soooo simple and a great go to treat and lower sugar than conventional ice cream, especially if you are adding fruit to it.

6. Salmon Rice Bowl

@emilymariko

♬ original sound – Emily Mariko

The salmon rice bowl from food tiktok’er Emily Mariko was a huge hit. Salmon, soy sauce, green onion, what’s not to love about this simple viral trend? A great way to use up any leftovers and you could easily add a whole lot of veggies to this dish too. 

7. Watermelon Pizza

@kroger

Have you tried watermelon pizza? 🍉 #kroger #watermelon #watermelonpizza #fruit #3ingredientrecipes #easyrecipes @sailor_bailey

♬ original sound – Kroger

I love this idea, it’s a really easy way to add a little bit of variety to a simple slice of watermelon and whatever fresh fruit you have around, it’s not your average fruit salad. Plus how pretty does it look??

There are lots of variations of the watermelon pizza going around, from sour to frozen versions. But this one with greek yoghurt and berries was my personal favourite as it had a good mix of aesthetics plus flavour. I think the best part is that really anyone could make this.

8. Corn Ribs

@bosh.tv

CORN RIBS! 🌽 #vegan #cornribs #corn #ribs #recipe #foodtok #trending #viral

♬ Very Good Very Nice – Bck

This Mexican dish makes for an excellent side dish in the summer time BBQ season, it’s no wonder it made it to one of the top tiktok food trends of this year, but who’s to say you couldn’t indulge in this any time of year as I have seen a lot of people doing these in the air fryer too.

9 The Jennifer Anniston Salad

@the_bottomlesspit

Will this make my arms look like hers? #jenniferanistonsalad #quinoasalad #mediterraneansalad #saladrecipes #easylunchideas #ByeByeSundayBlues

♬ Just a Cloud Away – Pharrell Williams

Though it turned out that this actually wasn’t the salad that Jennifer Anniston ate on the set of friends for 10 years straight as I talked about in the article below. The salad that went viral was still pretty tasty and amazing, so is still going to get it’s spot in the best off list as it still became a tiktok trend.

>>> The Embarrasing Truth About That Jennifer Anniston Salad <<<

10 Ramen Noodles

@chilipeppercooks

Reply to @firefistace74 Ramadan Day 5: Easy Chicken Ramen #easyrecipes #ramennoodles #ramenhacks #ramen #noodletok

♬ Just a Cloud Away – Pharrell Williams
Who doesn’t love chicken noodles. One of my go to dishes and that the kids love to. This is a take on simple chicken noodles that packs in a punch with the flavours, though i do have to lay off the chilli just a little.

11 Baked Feta Cheese

@feelgoodfoodie

Baked feta pasta with cherry tomatoes!! Recipe on blog • Inspired by @grilledcheesesocial 😘 #tiktokpartner #LearnOnTikTok #fetapasta #recipes

♬ original sound – Feel Good Foodie

A simple and time-friendly dish using cherry tomatoes, a block of feta, a glug of olive oil and thrown into a baking dish its simplicity means that is no wonder this became such a popular dish. So popular that the stores in Finland apparently ran out of feta cheese.


These are my favourite healthy TikTok recipes that I have found so far, and I’ll be sure to keep this post updated as soon as I see any new ones come along. I have missed some of the more popular tiktok food trend foods like sweet treats, pasta chips, cloud bread or chocolate chip cookies as I wanted to stick with some of the healthier alternatives from the past year. But if you want those types of food videos you can certainly find those lots of those viral tiktok recipes too.

Do you have any favourite viral videos or recipes that you have found via the app? Or which one of these are you looking forward to trying out the most??

If you enjoyed this then please consider sharing this article with your friends or on your social channels. Your support really means a lot.

Forever and always these tubes will be on my worko Forever and always these tubes will be on my workout playlist. And never get boring. Nothing hits like 90’s dance classics. What’s your favourite music to workout to??Insomnia is my all time banger #millennials #fitnessover40 #fitnessmotivation
Let’s talk real life. Because at this stage in Let’s talk real life.

Because at this stage in life — 40s, 50s and beyond — change doesn’t happen because we suddenly become perfect, never miss a workout, or always hit our macros to the gram.

It happens when we bounce back.

Faster. With more grace. And with a deeper “why.”

That’s what SHIFT40 is all about.

It’s not just another fat loss plan.

It’s a midlife transformation protocol — one that meets you where you are, gives you the structure, support and science you need, and helps you actually stay consistent.

💡 You won’t be counting calories forever.
💡 You won’t be training for hours.
💡 You WILL be building a foundation that supports your hormones, your body composition, your strength, your energy — and your mindset.

We’re heading into Week 4 with the women already inside…

And the transformation I’m seeing is exactly what SHIFT40 is designed for:

✨ More energy
✨ More consistency
✨ Stronger boundaries
✨ Less stress
✨ More bounce-back power

So if you’ve had a messy week, messy month event, or you’ve been waiting for the right time to start…

Let this be your sign: Now is the moment to bounce back stronger

👉 Join SHIFT40 here - comment below or drop me a DM

You’ll get instant access to the full program, meal guides, workouts, trackers, check-ins — and lifetime access to come back to it again and again.

Because this isn’t about quick fixes.

This is about becoming the woman who keeps showing up and you probably could do it alone…. but this is about giving you the tools that work and also the support for how to navigate it all when life shows up and tries to get in your way!!

P.S. If this program has been on your radar, now’s the time to say YES. Comment below if you have questions
If you are on a health or weight loss journey your If you are on a health or weight loss journey your progress will not always show on the scale especially if you are working on getting stronger (which FYI you should be)Tracking your measurements is a far more accurate way to see real progress. And this smart measure just makes it easier to be more accurate and can safely store your data so you can track trends and progress. #weightlossjouney #weightlosstipsforwomen #fitnessover40 #RENPHOsummer
It’s so easy to get stuck in the rhythm of life It’s so easy to get stuck in the rhythm of life that you forget to break out the box and remember what we are doing it all for

Reminding myself that I want to be fit enough for days like these, to go out and explore and see this wonderful place I get to call home

To disconnect and be in nature is when I feel at my best, even if I was completely exhausted all at the same time. 

Cycling uphill even on a e-bike is really freaking hard.

Over the last few years I had felt like maybe it w Over the last few years I had felt like maybe it was age catching up with me—out of breath running up the stairs, energy dipping more than usual.

And for a while, I told myself it was just getting older. And I’ll still allow myself the excuse of hormonal changes that have been going on with PCOS and peri menopause
But if I’m really honest with myself… I stopped pushing. I stopped doing the hard stuff. I stopped doing as much cardio, cos it’s hard!!

But I’m not ready to use the excuse of age, im only 42!!! We not even at 1/2 time yet baby.!!

So I’m Rebuilding, and getting back to pushing myself like I used to.
Because fitness isn’t just about how you look—

It’s about how you feel showing up in your life.

And I want to feel strong, capable, and full of energy… not just now, but 10, 20, 30 years from now.

If you don’t use it, you lose it.

And I plan on keeping mine.

I almost skipped this one. Low energy. Full sched I almost skipped this one.

Low energy. Full schedule. All the excuses.

But I made a promise—to myself.
And sometimes self-care looks like showing up anyway.

Not perfectly. Just consistently.

Because motivation fades... but discipline shows up even when you don’t feel like it. 💪

And the small matter that I signed up to a Spartan that is 3 weeks out 🤦‍♀️

Family days out seem to happen less as the kids ge Family days out seem to happen less as the kids get older, or that we are always too busy off at some event or another.  Hanging onto these moments and always in awe that these mountains never get boring. 

Riding the train and visiting the ice cave in the glacier in Chamonix which I cannot believe in the 9 years of living here we hadn’t yet done. 

Really wanted to do the big lift but it’s sooooooo expensive 😱

Here’s what different rep ranges actually do — and why it matters even more in midlife. 👇

Client wins!!! When it comes to midlife I really Client wins!!!

When it comes to midlife I really believe that moving away from crash and fad dieting is one of the best things you will ever do for yourself and your body

To find joy in your health journey means kindness, compassion and still enjoying the little things and living your life. 

Embracing a slower transformation, implementing daily habits over time is where you can finally find peace with your body and food. It doesn’t have to be all or nothing

Implementing

- walking daily
- sleep and stress management
- increasing protein
- getting stronger

Simple things that may not be fast or sexy but are the most effective tools that will help you see the changes that are actually lasting

I want to share something I come back to again and I want to share something I come back to again and again — both for myself and the women I coach:
 
“In 2 weeks you'll feel it.
In 4 weeks you'll see it.
In 8 weeks you'll be it.
In 52 weeks you'll be so glad you started now.”
 
It's a reminder that nothing changes unless you decide to make the shift.
Not when the kids are older.
Not when work quiets down.
Not when life finally feels “perfect.”
(Not gonna lie — that day may never come.)
 
The truth is, the women who create real change are the ones who decide that now is good enough. And I really do think that when we take a moment to create some focus on our health that how you can feel on the other side changes everything.
 
And I created SHIFT40 for that exact moment — the one where you've had enough of waiting… and you're ready to feel strong, healthy, and like yourself again.
 
Because this 4-week program?
It's not just a month of workouts and recipes.
It's the starting line to making change and changes that will go well beyond the 4 weeks.
 
And here's the best part — once you join SHIFT40, you get lifetime access.
 
That means even if you start now and life throws a curveball (as it tends to), you've got this in your back pocket, forever!
 
This is the plan that will show you exactly what works for your body in midlife — no starving just fueling, no overtraining, no guesswork. Just focused, empowering action that fits your life.
 
You in?
