My New Go-To for Planted-Based Meal Prep Inspiration

My New Go-To for Planted-Based Meal Prep Inspiration

It all started last weekend with some harmless humble bragging over text. I told a client that my sweet husband Peter was busy in the kitchen making us blueberry protein muffins for the week. Since her husband, my awesome client Dan, was also on the thread she hit me back and raised the stakes by letting me know he was busy roasting carrots and sweet potatoes to make them Carrot Cake Smoothies. Uhm, I don’t know about you, but I’m DOWN for anything with the word cake in it. So I asked for the recipe and it’s got me drooling (dates and chia seeds and pineapple and cinnamon and all sorts of yummy, vegan goodness).

Greek Yogurt "Bagels". No Seriously, They're Good.

Greek Yogurt "Bagels". No Seriously, They're Good.

The East Coaster in me rolled my eyes when my friend Kat told me about “bagels” made from only fat free Greek yogurt and self rising flour. I was like, “gross”. But as usual, Kat was right. These little suckers from Weight Watchers were not only easy to make (and you know I don’t bake) but they are actually really tasty. This recipe makes four little bagels and they keep well in the fridge. Depending on how you top them you can serve and eat them plain or you can add some low calorie shmear, smoked salmon, etc. Enjoy!

Crunchy Food Truck Fish Tacos

Crunchy Food Truck Fish Tacos

Ok, don’t laugh. Because when I first tried these I thought NO WAY. But honestly, these crunchy fish tacos rival those of any food truck and are actually pretty healthy and super easy to make. The secret ingredient? Trader Joe’s fish sticks. Yup. Fish sticks. All you have to do is bake these little suckers in the oven and place two inside of corn tortilla with your favorite toppings (I keep it simple with lettuce for texture, a little Mexican blend cheese, salsa and low fat sour cream). You can also try shredded cabbage, avocado/guac, hot sauce, etc. Have fun with it!
