Your Meatless Monday Swap

Looking for a way to cut back on animal protein but unsure where to start? The thought of committing to a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle can be intimidating, but you don't have to marry a particular plant friendly diet to reap the well supported health benefits.

Meal Planning: The "Diet" Trend of 2019

Did the meal prep craze of 2018 leave you wanting your weekends back? For many of my clients, the goal was to utilize what spare time they had on weekends or days off to batch cook and neatly store away several meals and snacks for the week, making healthy eating effortless. What I noticed happening more often was that the time, energy and resources needed to meal prep were huge barriers in actually completing the task at hand, leaving my clients relying on that behavior scr

My Go-To-Fall Recipes

Although it doesn't feel like fall, more like August in Orlando, I've been utilizing the season's bounty and loving every crumb of it. Now that I have four mouths to feed,two tiny and two adult, it's really important for me to find recipes that fit everyones nutritional requirements and preferences. I need something that fits into the baby led weaning guidelines, while not too intimidating for a toddler, and still appeals to two hungry adults. Seems impossible now that I writ

Healthy Thanksgiving Leftover Ideas

Did the holidays sneak up on you this year? Are you worried that it will put the kibosh on your current weight loss plans? If you are one of my dedicated clients, you have heard me say over and over again that it's not the holiday itself that threatens our weight loss success, but what happens the day(s) leading up to, or even more so, the days after, that will affect our waist line and health. With that being said, and because I hate food waste, I have included a few healthy

(Turkey) Bacon Wrapped Cheesy Jalapeno Chicken

Let's face it, chicken is boring! Although it's lean and light, it lacks in flavor for the same reason. I had so many partial leftovers trailing in my fridge, so I decided to use up some peppers I had bought at the farmers market and a few slices of uncured organic turkey bacon that I had used in my healthy BLTA in the hopes of giving my defrosted chicken breast some new life. The end result (with the help of some low fat cheddar) was packed with flavor, moisture and a major

Super Spring Asparagus Recipes

Spring picking is here and if you are like my family, you like to go to local farms and grab the goodies yourself. This means fresh produce......and cheap! Early spring is a great time to use up some fresh asparagus. One cup of this mighty veggie yields only 30 calories and is loaded with iron, fiber and 3 grams of protein! Below are three versatile recipes that can take you from side dish to full on meatless meal. Asparagus Pasta Salad: (bottom) Less guilty than traditional

Sweet and Spicy Shrimp Over Couscous

This gloomy spring weather really inspires me to get into the kitchen and cook a hot meal. I finally re-stocked my freezer with some wild caught shrimp…one of my fav ways to add lean protein to meals….and pretend to be fancy… so I figured I would build my meal around these guys. I simply place the frozen shrimp under running cold water and it is ready to cook in minutes. I recently saw a recipe for sriracha shrimp and quinoa and it got my wheels turning. I never really pai
