Here’s today’s friendly reminder to always eat dessert. 🍩🍫🧁 When I was younger we always had ice cream or frozen yogurt for dessert after dinner. We always ate it together while we watched TV after dinner. I definitely never kicked that habit... and I don’t want to! This #healthyfood PB AND CHOCOLATE BREAD is a healthy dessert option that is for sure a winner for all chocolate lovers! I topped it with @crazyrichardspb and @goodmollys #vegan brownie bite crumbles! It’s #glutenfree, chocolatey and really easy to make!




🌿Ingredients

3 mashed bananas

2 tbsp peanut butter @crazyrichardspb

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1 cup GF flour @bobsredmill

1/2 cup apple sauce

1 egg

1 tbsp cinnamon

1/3 cup sugar free syrup

1 tsp baking soda


🌿 Directions

Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Transfer to loaf pan. Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes.


This bread is hands down one of the best things I’ve made all summer... my sister can vouch for that too. When we were kids we used to love cheddar bay biscuits, so basically any bread that is fluffy and cheddar favored and brings us back to that cheddar biscuit flavor is hands down a winner for us. 🧀🍞



This bread is Gluten free, healthy, vegetarian and low fat since I used fat free cheddar, fat free greek yogurt and oat milk! It takes about 15 minutes to prep.



🌿Ingredients

1 cup @ancientharvest Quinoa

2 tsp onion powder

2 tsp garlic powder

2 tbsp dried parsley

1/2 tsp salt

1 cup cornmeal

1/4 cup gluten free flour

2 tsp. baking powder

2 large eggs

1/3 cup olive oil

1 cup fat free greek yogurt

1/3 cup oat milk

1 1/2 cups fat free shredded cheddar cheese

2 tbsp Parmesan cheese


🌿Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400.

In a small pot, bring 3/4 cup dry quinoa and 1 3/4 cups of water to a boil.

2. Continue to cook on low heat, covered, for 15 minutes until all liquid is absorbed and quinoa is light and fluffy.

3. While the 3/4 cup of quinoa is cooking, add the extra 1/4 cup of dried quinoa to a frying pan and cook on medium heat for 4-6 minutes until quinoa is brown and toasted. Set aside.

4. In a medium bowl mix together onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, cornmeal, gluten free flour, and baking powder.

5. In a separate medium bowl mix together olive oil, salt, eggs, yogurt, milk, cheddar cheese and parmesan cheese.

6. Combine both bowls and slowly wet and dry ingredients together.

7. Once all the wet and dry ingredients are combined, add the cooked quinoa and continue to fold until the quinoa is fully mixed in.

8. Prepare the loaf pan by lightly spraying with cooking spray to avoid any sticking. Then add the batter evenly into the pan. Top with 1/4 cup of toasted quinoa, pressing it into the batter lightly.

9. Bake loaf for 45 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.





We did another Monday-Friday of vegan meals only to change up our healthy eating habits and challenge ourselves. Friday lunches are still vegan but Friday nights for dinner we support a local restaurant and order in anything we want. This is what my lunches looked like most of this week... and let me say I am notttt mad about it. I eat a big bowl of of raw and sautéed veggies, some spinach and I always work in some crispy air fried potato cubes for a crunch. I top it off with an avocado that’s drizzled in olive oil and seasoned with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes, which is my favorite part. Eating healthy, or eating vegan doesn’t mean eating less... it just means eating differently. So here’s proof you can still eat a lot of food and be healthy...and then save room for pizza later.


Ingredients

2 cups of fresh chopped spinach

1 small sweet potato

1/2 cup cauliflower

1/4 cup cherry tomatoes

1/2 avocado

Salt

Pepper

Olive oil

Red pepper flakes


Directions

1. Cut sweet potato into 1/2” cubes and season along with cauliflower with light cooking spray, salt and pepper. Air fry potatoes and cauliflower on 390 for 5-10 minutes until they are crispy.

2. Add chopped spinach to the bowl. Add tomatoes, I cut mine in half.

3. Slice avocado in half, remove the pit and peel off the skin to make it easier for chopping. Slice into thin slices and fan out on top of spinach.

4. Add potato cubes and cauliflower once done cooking.

5. Top bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes! Enjoy!
