small meals
Nibbles between meals
Small meals are modest portions of food eaten throughout the day rather than fewer large ones.
The phrase appears often in dietary advice: Eating five or six small meals keeps your metabolism active.
The concept emphasizes frequency over volume, spreading caloric intake across the day to manage hunger or blood sugar.
