Instant Pot Picadillo
Get ready for a new favorite! This has been a favorite since I taught it in cooking classes last spring. Instant Pot pork picadillo comes together in about 10 minutes flat, and it’s a trifecta dinner in my house (meaning all three of my kids think it’s a winner). I leave the olives whole, so…
Whole30 Weekly Meal Plan // Week 4
Eleven more days of Whole30, not that I’m counting. I honestly haven’t missed the dairy, sugar, bread or pasta. Delicious Whole30 dinners and egg-based breakfasts have kept me satisfied and full. Not to mention my favorite lunch of chipotle mayo and lime tuna salad heaped inside half an avocado. That said, it hasn’t been a…
Whole30 Meal Plan // Week of September 10
MONDAY We have a few extra kids coming over before their first Young Life meeting tonight. I’m making a big batch of weeknight chili and putting out all the fixings (grated cheese, sour cream, corn bread). If you’re doing Whole30, scoop out some of the chili before adding the beans. I may stir in a cup…
Whole30 Weekly Meal Plan // Week of September 3
Whole30 Week 1 Monday is day one of Whole30 for me. I can’t wait to share my delicious Whole30 meal plans with you. I’ve been stockpiling recipes and brainstorming all summer. My family will be eating Whole30 dinners, and I promise they will have no clue! Not to say I won’t give them a hamburger…
Wild Blueberry Smoothie
Otherwise known as the “back-to-school” smoothie, this wild blueberry wonder is packed with antioxidants. Organic wild blueberries are one of those foods best bought in the frozen food section (unless you live in Maine, Michigan or Canada). Flash frozen in season at their peak, there’s nothing wrong with buying produce from the freezer aisle. Yesterday,…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week of August 13
I’m making this a quick one. Even though school doesn’t officially start for one more week, it feels like game on around here. Pre-season field hockey practices, pre-season middle school football, book pick up, locker decorating, haircuts and new shoes. You get the drill. Having a dinner plan will help me get through the week…
Quick Vegetable Stir Fry
A quick vegetable stir fry with tons of tasty vegetables and a garlic-ginger sauce.
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 20
MONDAY Quick homemade fish sticks (gluten-free!) with yogurt-caper sauce and coleslaw. I make the yogurt sauce with non-fat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced capers, garlic powder, salt and pepper. If you have some parsley to mince, you can add it. You could also add a dash of Old Bay seasoning. I plan to use fresh cod,…
Weekly Meal Plan // Week 13
A Super Easy (and mostly healthy) Weekly Meal Plan We’re rolling into April and that time of year that always feels the most frenetic to me. As I’ve said before, it’s like riding a bicycle downhill with no handlebars. We have a few April birthdays in our family, and weekends are filled with an Earth…
