PEANUT PAD THAI 🥜
and I cooked up a MEAN lunch today, and it reallyyy hit the spot 🤤

Method:

In a large skillet, cook 3 large heads of bok choy (sliced into smaller pieces), 1 large diced bell pepper, half a chopped onion, a handful of mushrooms, a handful of cashews, and a 1 inch cube of ginger (diced) in 1 tbsp of your choice of oil. once the veggies are tender and almost cooked thoroughly, time to add the sauce!
add 2 tbsp of soy sauce, 2 tbsp of peanut butter, 1 tbsp red vine vinegar or balmasic vinegar and 1 tbsp black pepper.
Now add in cooked rice noodles, and top with your choice of protein 💪🏽 tofu for us today!

SAVORY OATS 🍲

Usually I smother my oats in nut butter, fruit, or anything under the umbrella of SWEETness. But not today💁🏻‍♀️ ~

These steel cut oats are topped with portobello mushrooms, chopped kale, purple olives, diced onion ~all sautéed in coconut oil, paired with a fried egg🍳 sprinkled with h**p seeds, crushed red pepper flakes, my FAVE seasoning ever southwestern mix, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Wow what a mouthful😂 sounds a bit fancy but realistically threw whatever I had on hand into the frying pan and called it a morning.

I think I will always be but i little savory is always nice too😉

CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER CUPS 🍫🥜

Think Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups but more rich, decadent and way healthier 😉

Method:

Combine 4 tbsp raw cacao powder, 4 tbsp (solid) coconut oil, and 1 & 1/2 tbsp maple syrup. Either heat on stovetop in a small saucepan for a few minutes or for a faster method, heat in microwave for 30 seconds.
Pour half of this chocolatey sauce into 6 cupcake holders. Freeze for 45 minutes. Remove from freezer and scoop 1/2 tbsp of nut butter on to each one, then pour the rest of the chocolatey sauce on top of the nut butter (you will likely need to reheat it). Sprinkle cacao nibs and a little sea salt on top and freeze again for another 45 minutes.

These are quite decadent so feel free to cut into smaller chunks. A small piece goes a long way!

Livin la Vida MOCHA

Another snow day here in Guelph! Celebrating the with a cooool mocha smoothie bowl, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
~
Method:
Combine 1 frozen banana, 1/3 avocado, 1 tbsp of raw instant coffee (or 1/4 cup of black coffee) 2 tbsp protein powder (chocolate or vanilla would both work) 2 tbsp ground flax seed, and 1 tsp cinnamon and blend together until smooth. ~
Top with cacao nibs, almond slivers, raspberries, cinnamon, creamy almond butter, and coconut yogurt
~
