The BEST Breakfast Wrap!
Mushrooms… yay? Or nay? I’m a total yay. In my eggs, soup, on my pizza. In tacos- y’all Mission Taco Joint has THE BEST portobello mushroom tacos! I’m a sucker for all things mushrooms. So to add them into a breakfast wrap to give it a bit more of a punch, this is my jam! Powerhouse of flavor. Delish combination. 2 servings of veggies in each wrap. And a treat for your savory taste buds! Recipe below! Ingredients: 1 whole egg, 2 egg whites2 tsp butter olive oil (I use Olivino Tasting Bar’s)1 whole grain wrap/tortilla (I prefer Mission organic)2 tbsp chopped white onion1 c chopped baby portobellos1 c arugula or mixed greens1…

Healthier Air Fryer Donuts
You had me at “10 Minute Breakfast”! My kiddos will sleep in, lounge on the couch for an hour, and then IMMEDIATELY decide they are STARVING and need to eat RIGHT NOW!!! Quick, healthy breakfasts are totally our jam. However, they default to toaster waffles and would prefer pop-tarts or donuts where I’m more of a “made from scratch” sort of mom. Don’t get me wrong, we indulge every now and then, but if I can whip up a “healthier” version of a lot of things, I will. Donuts are one of our favs in this house too. The greasy, gooey, chocolatey smothered, deep-fried, treats don’t last too long here.…

Zucchini Chips (Fixate Cookbook)
These turned out to be just perfect! And when you can get away with serving your kids “chips” for dinner, it’s a win-win! Keep an eye on these while you’re cooking, if they’re cut too thin they can crisp up quickly. I tried turning the temp up a bit to cook them quicker and they did ok, but cooking low and slow is ideal. Zucchini Chips Ingredients: 2 large zucchini, sliced thinly with mandolin slicer or paring knife (be careful!) 3-4 tsp EVOO Sea salt to taste Instructions: Preheat oven to 225*. Slice zucchini thin. Pat dry with paper towel. Drizzle lightly with oil, Bake on parchment lined cookie sheets…

Easy Chicken Burrito Bowls
We had some of THE BEST tacos at Bakersfield while we were in Nashville this past weekend. I mean, wow. Hand made corn tortillas, mahi, braised spare rib, marinated portabella… I was in total heaven. We ate there twice. Then we found Nashville Street Tacos… agghhh! More deliciousness! I couldn’t get enough southwest style fare (yeah, in Nashville, I know). So when we got home I decided I was going to throw in a few similar style southwestern flair dinners for this weeks menu. Last night we did a deconstructed chicken burrito. It was heavenly. One happy husband, and three happy kids. And I had to stop myself from going…

Beef and Butternut Squash Stew
Ohhhhhhhh the aroma that comes from the kitchen when I make this stew is enough to make the neighbors mouths water! And any meal that’s out of the “norm” that my kids try and actually eat a few bites of is a win. The husband loved it and I knew he would. Meat. Everything in one bowl. No rabbit food. Win! This is hands down one of my favorite 21 Day Fix & Fix Extreme recipes! Ingredients; 1 lb lean (trimmed) beef stew meat 1 medium butternut squash (chopped into 1/2-1″ cubes) 1 cup low sodium beef broth (can use water and 1 tsp low sodium beef bouillon)…

Southwest Stuffed Sweet Potatoes (vegetarian)
Oh how I love Meatless Monday dinners! For our family it can be a challenge to come up with a healthy, flavorful meat free meal that my husband (a meat and potatoes guy) will eat and enjoy! This was a huge hit the first time I made it, so today after starting another round of 21 Day Fix Extreme I wanted to kick off with a Fix friendly dinner that still felt like a “cheat meal”! These loaded sweet potatoes are excellent for keeping that full feeling afterward without the harsh effects on your waistline! Ingredients: 4 small/medium sweet potatoes 1/2 cup black beans, cooked 1/2 cup…
