Hi friends! Someone recently asked me if I was vegan, which I’m not but I realized I don’t share many of my actual lunch and dinner meal recipes with you so thought I should start :).  Truthfully, I’m not a huge Turkey fan unless it’s thanksgiving or these meatballs…literally – that’s it!  I love adding […]

I love turning traditional favourites into healthier dishes for 1) why not! my theory is that the more nutrients I can pack in to traditional comfort foods loved by all, the better! and 2) coming from a family with various allergies, including myself, I love coming up with variations of foods that I […]

Meatless Monday: Lemon Tempeh Noodles

Posted on May 1, 2017May 1, 2017by Andrea

Sometimes I use tempeh, other times chickpeas or tofu.  The possibilities are really endless and perfect for adding a vegetarian meal to your diet (even if you’re not vegetarian!) […]

WHAT IS YOUR DAILY HEALTHY HABIT? For me it's smoo WHAT IS YOUR DAILY HEALTHY HABIT? For me it's smoothies for breakfast 90% of the time. SO many combos and frozen ingredients give the best thick texture, who wouldn't want that... Healthy habits that become a part of your lifestyle are ideal, you don't want to be dieting forever sis! This Berry Blast "PB & J" Protein Smoothie was SO yummy!

Smoothie for 2
2-3 cups unsweetened almond milk @almondbreeze
1.5 frozen banana
1 cup frozen mixed berries
3 slices frozen zucchini
1 tbsp almond butter
1 slice ginger
2 scoops vegan vanilla protein

Blend in a high power blender and  enjoy!

I DON'T BUY FRESH FISH. Ok hear me out... the MAJO I DON'T BUY FRESH FISH. Ok hear me out... the MAJORITY of the fish at the grocery store says "fresh" salmon or whatever. Then says previously frozen. Aka they defrosted frozen fish for you. It then sits there for a few days until you buy it and cook it. This results in a super fishy flavour and funky texture sometimes too. So unless I'm buying it legit off of a fishing boat/market... I opt for frozen! Seafood is actually frozen AT SEA at its peak. Also, it's way easier to keep on hand and defrosts quickly in some cool water or overnight. It's cheaper too! What's your favourite seafood? I still haven't cooked with scallops 🙃
.
P.s. I wasn't a huge fan of fish growing up but kept trying because omega 3 fats are AMAZING so now I love it. I started with white fish like tilapia and worked my way up. My GO TO recipe for salmon is patting it dry, sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, @traderjoes chilli lime seasoning, drizzle of @wedderspoonofficial honey. Baked at 400F for 8ish minutes. Perfect every time 🥳.
