Mediterranean Chicken Flatbread Pizza
If your “diet” or meal plan doesn’t call allow for pizza, you’re doing it wrong. When I start a new fitness program, when we meal prep, when we do a lot of what we do, it involves pizza. And if it can’t- well, that doesn’t make for a happy mommy! Tonight, this momma is studying and I needed an easy dinner that would fill me up. I whipped this up in minutes and baked it for 13 and voila! Daddy took the three crazy kids to the mall playground to burn some energy and scream somewhere else and this momma cracked open an ice cold La Croix, and ate…

Fat Tuesday Jambalaya
The old bartending days. Down in Soulard. Oooh I loved working Mardi Gras! Tons of people. Lots of tips. Delicious food. You could count on me scarfing down several bowls of jambalaya during a 12 hour shift! So tonight being Fat Tuesday, I wanted to recreate the Mardi Gras taste of jambalaya I remembered but with a little bit healthier kick. We used our jalapeño cheddar elk sausage but you can use a ground turkey, a lean ground sausage, or chicken and it would be just as yummy. I hope you enjoy! Laissez les bon temps roulez! Ingredients: 1 lbs lean sausage or turkey (we used elk) 3…

Roasted Balsamic Veggies
Balsamic vinegar is my jam. I eat it on a lot of things. I’m weird like that. Salad. Chicken. Rice. Quinoa. Steak. Tilapia (see, weird). So I had to do it on veggies. Ok. One word. Delish. These turned out great and made a perfect side for tonight’s roasted turkey breast. Ingredients: 2 large zucchini, quartered 2 sweet potatoes, peeled & diced 2 carrots, peeled & diced 2 green peppers, chopped 1 onion, roughly chopped 1/4 c balsamic vinegar 2 tbsp EVOO 1 tbsp chopped rosemary Sea salt & black pepper Directions: Chop all veggies.

Easy Egg Muffin Cups
Breakfast is a disaster at our house. One kid off to first grade. One momma off to nursing school. One daddy off to work, and sometimes two little kids off to daycare when Grandma’s not here. I don’t have time to make 5 different breakfasts. I don’t have time to make my own breakfast some days but it’s the most important meal of the day so I don’t allow myself to skip it. This is where meal planning comes into play. Because we try to eat clean, natural foods and avoid artificial ingredients at every opportunity, a fresh, healthy breakfast is important to us. So a little time this morning…

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)…
