Are you still looking for that perfect appetizer or side dish for your holiday meal this weekend? I’ve got just the recipe! . Whether you’re celebrating Easter 🐣 or Passover ✡️ (Danny and I get to do both!) I recommend using the meal as an opportunity to showcase some of the produce that is coming to market! 🌱I love spring veggies for how young, green, and fresh they are- simple preparations really let them shine! But as one follower pointed out to me, simple can be “the same” and “sometimes they just need to be dressed up!”💃 . So, in my effort to “dress up veggies” in their Easter Sunday best, I’m making these ASPARAGUS POLENTA BITES! They may sound fancy but they are SO EASY to make and showcase asparagus in a fun, new way that’s a perfect intro for some veggie-phobes at your table. 🙋‍♂️In fact, family get togethers happened to be when Danny was most adventurous to try new foods! . Here’s a quick how-to so you can HOP 🐰to it and make these tasty bites! . 🔸 Slice precooked polenta into thin disks and sear in a lightly oiled skillet for 4-5 minutes per side until crisped. 🔸Meanwhile, chop asparagus into a small dice and sauté in another pan for a few minutes until tender but not mushy. 🔸Spoon a bit of sautéed asparagus onto each polenta round, top with grated gruyere cheese, and slide under the broiler for a minute to melt cheese. 🔸Finish with a touch of salt and fresh ground black pepper and voila! . Wishing all of you a HOPPY weekend and holiday! . . #eatwholefoods #healthyeating #balancednotclean #nutritionist #rdchat #registereddietitian #nutritiousanddelicious #allfoodsfit #eatbetternotless #eatrealfood #easycooking #quickmeals #healthierchoices #quickandhealthy #forkfeed #thefeedfeed #food52grams #thekitchn #healthyfoodshare #easterrecipes #passoverrecipes #asparagus #springveggies #trynewfoods #eatyourveggies #healthjourney #easterbrunch #enjoyyourfood #holidayeats #easyrecipes
Question: who is the bigger SNACKER in your relationship? . I’d say my hubs and I both rely on snacks to help avoid the afternoon slump 🙇🏻‍♂️ but lately Danny has been tuning in to his snacking habits 🤔 While the office candy bowl or café splurge typically satisfies his hunger, he started to notice a hit to his wallet and gaps in whole food nutrition 👀 . So, we worked together to come up with some planned ahead office snacks to help avoid the afternoon hangries! Here’s what he now has on hand... . 👌Cashew Energy Bites- he stores these babies in the fridge and reaches for this reliable bundle of protein, healthy fat, and carbs when needing a boost (see our homemade recipe a few posts back) 🍌 Fresh fruit- lately he’s digging bananas, but the choice is really yours- I can’t wait for summer peaches! 🥨 Crunchy puffed snacks- to satisfy the salty craving, while prioritizing whole grains and plant protein, snacks like @safeandfair or @hippeas_snacks hit the spot 🥜 Coconut @karmanuts- the newest go-to snack that provides protein, fiber, healthy fats, and a hint of sweetness. REMEMBER to grab your own discounted cashews through the link in my profile 🔗 .

There’s a VEGGIE hiding in this smoothie bowl- any guesses what it is? 🧐 Leave your best guess in the comments below! . This past weekend was gloriously sunny, the temperature held steady above 60 degrees, and I even got some color on my face walking around the farmers market. ☀️ With spring vibes in the air comes SMOOTHIE vibes in my kitchen! . Smoothies or acai bowls 🥣 can be QUICK, reliable breakfasts, but if picking one up from your local blender bar you’ll likely encounter a lot of added sugars, more fruit than anything else, and a breakfast that lacks some protein. I love blending up my own bowls at home to be choosy about my ingredients and, of course, add in more nutrition with veggies. For someone who doesn’t always LOVE just snacking on fruit, or isn’t into certain veggies (my hubs might be in that category🤫), smoothies are a great way to get in important nutrients! . This bowl is making me SO excited for Hawaii 🌴in TWO weeks where Danny and I first fell in love with acai bowls, but in the meantime this will have to do. Here’s how to make: . ½ cup frozen mixed berries 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice) 1 tbsp chocolate truffle @drinkiconic protein powder 1 tbsp hemp seeds 1 HIDDEN VEGGIE (I’ll tell you what I added in my stories but really the choice is yours!) ✔️Blend together! Add more water or milk depending on how thick or thin you prefer. ✔️Top with a bit more fresh/frozen/dried fruit, unsweetened coconut shreds, and a finishing sprinkle of hemp seeds. . . #nutritioncoach #registereddietitian #intuitiveeating #nourishyourself #nutritiousanddelicious #allfoodsfit #eatbetternotless #quickmeals #healthierchoices #quickandhealthy #thefeedfeed #spoonfeed #food52grams #thekitchn #healthyfoodshare #smoothie #smoothiebowl #acaibowl #eatyourveggies #healthybreakfast #breakfastideas #lowsugar #healthyhusband #fitfam #couplegoals #hawaiieats #todayfood #balancedbreakfast #nutritiontips #goodmoodfood
Do you have a reliable food prep strategy?👩🏻‍🍳 Share yours in the comments! . I am on a Monday Meal Prep Mission to bust the myth that planning for a few nutritious meals for two does NOT have to take much time, money, or stress. 🙅‍♀️ . My nights after work have been a bit hectic, so I wanted to give myself a little break from the “shop and cook every single night” routine and make up food ahead of time for myself and Danny this week. 💁‍♀️ . One of my favorite ways to meal prep is by using the “cook once, eat twice” method where I can cook up a large quantity and enjoy it for a few lunches and/or dinners. I even take it a few steps further and make sure that this one dish is easy peasy, meaning I try to use 5 ingredients or less! 🤚 . This is how uncomplicated it is to make this Pesto Veggie Pasta Bake… 🍝 Cook box of chickpea or regular pasta according to instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, then add to baking dish. 🥬 Tear up half a big bunch of kale and massage leaves with a bit of olive oil. 🍅To the pasta add the kale, half a pint of cherry tomatoes, some mozzarella balls (however cheesey you like it), and a cup of pesto (I happened to find spinach pesto in my freezer, but basic basil is tasty too). 👐 Mix everything together well and bake at 375 for about 20 minutes. Reheat and eat for 3-4 tasty meals for yourself and your main man! . . #nutritiousmeals #eatwholefoods #healthyeating #balancednotclean #nutritionist #rdchat #registereddietitian #nutritiousanddelicious #allfoodsfit #eatbetternotless #eatrealfood #easycooking #mealplanning #quickmeals #mealprepideas #healthierchoices #quickandhealthy #easymealprep #foodinspiration #foodprep #mealprepmonday #mondaymotivation #easydinner #goodmoodfood #leftovers #chickpeapasta #eatyourveggies #fitfam #nutritiontips #dinnerideas
Happy Friday, friends! Anyone getting out and MOVING ya bod this weekend? . If you all are here just for the food and recipes that is a-okay (I could cook and create for days😉). But when my husband and I aren’t eating well together we are moving well too! Exercise has been on my mind a lot this week and so I wanted to wrap up with a Friday Introduction sharing some stories about fitness and moving- and I’d love to hear yours too! . 🚣‍♀️In highschool I was a competitive rower, going to practice and regattas non-stop. When I watch shells racing I get literal chills and want to be feeling that adrenaline rush so badly! . 🎾Danny plays tennis and he’s pretty stinkin’ good at it. I get to watch him on the court in the summers and support him to find games here in the city. . ⛰Growing up in NYC Danny wasn’t exactly hiking mountains, but we now love vacations with hikes and adventure to stay active! . 🏃🏼‍♀️Two years ago I couldn’t run more than 2 miles without getting a side stitch or knee pains. Running wasn’t something I felt I could do, period. But that all changed with a 5k entry, which pushed me to aim for a half marathon, and then led me to crazily finish 26.2 miles last May. . 💪I feel I am living proof that anything can be accomplished if you put your mind to it. I don’t say any of this to brag, because marathon training beat me up and it is HARD. But finishing that race as a “non-runner” was my proudest fitness moment and if I can do it, so can you all! I ended up finding a sport I love, one that relaxes me, pushes me, and also gives me the chills, and I think everyone likely has an exercise or sport that makes them feel that way too, you just might not have found it yet! . What’s your favorite way to move ya body? Still working on finding one?

Are you an oatmeal fan? Gimme a 🙌 if you love this tOATally delicious breakfast! . Seasons are changing and so is my breakfast! One of my favorite nutritious and satisfying breakfasts is OATMEAL. I love that it can be enjoyed hot or cold, dressed up or kept simple, and either at the kitchen table or made for on-the-go. . On a colder day or weekend when I have a lazy morning I like to make a bowl of stovetop steel cut oats adding in frozen blueberries and topping with a swoosh of yogurt, more berries, and some nut butter and seeds. It still only takes about 10 minutes, but it requires more clean up and I prefer to sit down and enjoy this bowl of goodness on the couch with a mug of coffee. . When I need to save time in the morning (and let’s be real, who doesn’t?) I PLAN AHEAD and make some overnight chia oats with frozen blueberries again (because these are good to have on hand for slow or fast nutritious meals), sometimes there’s fresh fruit mixed in too, plus a spoon of peanut butter that’s at my desk at work. And with warmer spring temps in the air, this cold breakfast that is dumped into a container and devoured is what hits the spot. . There is no wrong way to make oats, so find the way that works for you!

What foods can you name that are high in fiber? 🧐 Today I’m teaming up with @team_healthy_finds and @karmanuts (AD) to offer a GIVEAWAY of one of my newest favorite HIGH FIBER finds! 🤩 . Animal proteins by nature contain zero fiber 🍗🥩🥚🧀, but there are plant sources of protein, such as legumes, seeds, and nuts 🥜🌰that do contain dietary fiber to benefit our gut health, aid in lowering cholesterol and blood sugar, and help us feel more satisfied and full with our meals. I’ve been enjoying this Plant Based Stir Fry Bowl for lunches and LOVE counting the ways that FIBER pops up in this meatless bowl. It’s got... ✔️Farro ✔️Broccoli and green beans ✔️Chickpeas ✔️Peri Peri Wrapped Cashews from @karmanuts- these cashews are wrapped in their original skins, which include more than double the amount of fiber as a traditional “naked” nut and they are also packed with antioxidants! I love the spicy flavor for this bowl, and reach for the coconut crunch ones as an evening sweet. Plus, keeping their skins on means less food waste, which I am aaaall about 👏 . Want to get your hands on these tasty high fiber nuts? EVERYONE can win and here’s all you need to do... 1️⃣Follow me and @karmanuts 2️⃣ Like this photo 3️⃣ Click the link in my story feature/bio & follow the steps to order! *This giveaway is in no way sponsored or endorsed by Instagram.

Question: do you ever prep and plan ahead for SNACKS? Today I’m sharing an easy snack prep that I’ve always loved, but one that my husband has recently gotten into!💁‍♂️ . Danny has been a “buy lunch out” guy for the better part of our relationship. While I always prep and pack my lunch, he works in the heart of Midtown Manhattan and has oodles of fast, nutritious options around him. What he also has on every corner is a coffee shop for an afternoon cold brew and pick me up, so snacks are usually taken care of too. . He recently discovered the Crunchy Power Bites at @gregoryscoffee and while he found them convenient, nutritious, and satisfying, they also came with a price tag. So, when he came home and told me about this new love we decided to help save some cash and be our own snack chef! . Our CASHEW SEED BITES turned out to be a TASTY first attempt at homemade snacks that Danny would swap in for a 3pm energy boost and treat, without breaking the bank. All you need is... ✔️ cashews ✔️ pumpkin seeds ✔️ raisins (red or golden) ✔️ rolled oats ✔️Add 1 cup cashews and 1/2 cup of the remaining ingredients, plus 1 tbsp chia seeds if you have on hand, and pulse in a food processor until well ground and everything starts to stick together. Roll mix in your hands to form little bites (the size is up to you, but I made 20) . Tell me about what snacks get prepped or purchased in your house! . . #nutritiousmeals #eatwholefoods #healthyeating #balancednotclean #nutritionist #rdchat #registereddietitian #nutritiousanddelicious #allfoodsfit #eatbetternotless #eatrealfood #easycooking #mealprepideas #healthierchoices #quickandhealthy #foodinspiration #snackprep #snacks #healthysnack #energybites #easyrecipe #cashews #noaddedsugar #healthyfats #cookathome #nutritiontips #foodprep #nourishyourbody #healthyhusband #quicksnack
