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…

Thai Peanut Zoodle Bowl
I’ve been on a cooking kick lately. Not just the same old staples. But adding in a lot of variety and yummy, exotic flavors too. And all in less than 30 min. Ain’t nobody got time for being in the kitchen all day. Last week I was craving curry. So I made a yummy chicken curry chickpea cauliflower stew. It was heavenly and Anniston, my 5 year old, loved it too. Yesterday I meal prepped zucchini, toasted quinoa, and tomato egg muffins for breakfasts for the week. They have not disappointed. Today spicy Thai peanut noodle bowl. Only I didn’t have noodles. But I did have zucchini. Today’s zoodle bowl…

Nutrition Simplified- Achieving Balance and Sustainability
Nutrition is my jam. Now, anyway. It wasn’t always. Yeah, I ate “healthy”. Lean Cuisines and Diet Coke used to be my jam. I paid zero attention to what I was putting in my body, but fully believed that a 1500 calorie salad was a good lunch choice and could nearly eat my weight in steak, baked potato, and buttery green beans at dinner… protein, carb, veggie, right? About 5 years ago I committed to and dove into a fitness and nutrition program that would forever change the landscape of how I approached my nutrition. One that allowed for balance. See, I was always under the impression you could have…

Carrot Cake Protein Muffins
When breakfast tastes like dessert… I call that a win. These are quite possibly my favorite grab-and-go muffins that taste heavenly, require a minimum of ingredients, and give you a filling serving of protein, veggies, carbs, and an optional add in of healthy fats too. I am a sucker for carrot cake. When carrot cake is healthier? Even better. When I can have carrot cake for breakfast? I’m in love. As a mother, muffins that pack a protein punch with the addition of my favorite- Vegan Vanilla Shakeology (a powerhouse plant based superfood shake mix that we use as a go-to for baking and to blend into daily milkshakes) mean…

Enchilada Zucchini Boats
When you’re trying to eat healthy but you only want tacos and enchiladas. What do you do? You whip up a clean enchilada mix. Shove it into some scraped out zucchini top it with a little cheese, bake it, and enjoy! My husband gave me the eyebrow- you know, the one that The Rock used to dish out during those old school wrestling days? So I cautiously set his plate down hoping for the best. And he ate two boats. Proud moment right there! These turned out so yummy! I hope you enjoy! Ingredients: 3 medium zucchini or yellow squash, halved and seeds scraped out (save the insides…

Sautéed Kale and Tempeh Salad
We challenge ourselves to do a meatless Monday in this house because it gets us out of our grilled chicken and ground turkey comfort zone. Sometimes I get that “look” from my husband. The look where I put his plate in front of him and he looks at me with that head cocked suspicious puppy look- like “what are you trying to get me to eat”? Well. For a man who grew up his whole life hunting and eating wild game, I’m pretty impressed when he tries what I make, even if it goes against his caveman ways! Kale and tempeh sautée was one that I didn’t expect him to…
