Life is crazy enough, there is no need to make dinner harder than necessary. My Zoodles Marinara with Three Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms takes only about 15 minutes to make and is perfectly suited for meal prepping. Sure, you may be all “been-there-done-that” over spiralized zucchini with tomato sauce, but the addition of the hearty mushrooms oozing with a trio of cheese kicks up the YUM to a whole ‘nutha level. Zoodles Marinara with Stuffed Mushrooms for meal prep

I’m about to flip my gourd (in a good way), October 1st is National Pumpkin Spice Day.. I know pumpkin spice has been super trendy ever since a certain coffee shop got a hold of it, but I’ve been a pumpkin “Spice Girl’ back since 5rd grade when I brought home a pumpkin spice muffin recipe to replicate that my class made for a Thanksgiving feast (that was 40 years ago, y’all). sugar free pumpkin spice latte with collagen

I’m sharing that pumpkin muffin recipe again in this post, along with some other pumpkin goodness I’ve updated to include Collagen Hydrolysate (or another protein powder of choice).

Have a pile of yummy stuff to eat, but no fork? A sandwich or wrap makes sense, but if you’re avoiding breads, tortillas, pita pockets and other carbohydrates, getting that food into your mouth can be tricky.  My Paleo, Keto, Low-Carb Egg Wraps make a smart swap for bread-like products – they have no carbs, no grains, no gluten, and no weird taste and texture like some of those alternative bread products around.

Growing up, my mom might have made these Egg Wraps and called them crepes. Yes, they are kinda like crepes, but so much easier and, again, free of all flours and grains. Read on to get the recipe, meal-prep instructions and serving ideas. Continue reading →

This post is sponsored by Whole Foods Market 365, however all opinions, ideas, recipes and enthusiasm remain my own!

September is Better Breakfast Month, and I’m all about “making my day” with a healthy, balanced breakfast brimming with good things like whole grains, fruits, and protein.  My Chai Pear Quinoa-Oat Breakfast Bake with Vanilla Ricotta Cream offers all this wholesome goodness and more (did I mention caffeine?), plus the big casserole is perfect for portioning into single serves for freezer meal prep. Chai Pear Quinoa Oat Breakfast Bake with Vanilla Ricotta Cream

Another thing that “makes my day” is shopping at Whole Foods Market 365 (Cedar Park). It’s where I picked up all the fresh, organic ingredients for this make-ahead breakfast recipe. And, it’s also my go-to store to grab ingredients and prepped foods to fuel my active lifestyle filled with running, obstacle course racing, weight lifting, yoga, paddle boarding, being a mom to three boys and more.
