I’m developing some new recipes to share with you. Here’s one you can use for breakfast or a snack, for those of you who can’t eat oats. For those who can, just replace the quinoa with gluten free oats. This is a low sugar recipe; feel free to add more honey to your taste. This was perfect for me as a mid-afternoon or after dinner snack that packs a lot of fiber, protein and fat. You can have one of these after dinner to help your digestion or take them along with you for a post-workout “pick-me-up."
Let me know what you think. Enjoy!”

For this simple stir fry, you may substitute any vegetables. I like to shred or chop vegetables and place them in mason jars for use during the week.

A favorite on cool days, or anytime, this creamy delicious soup really satisfies! If you are cooking for fewer than six, this soup keeps well refrigerated as a strategy for lightening your cooking burden during a busy week.
The Nourished Quick Bowl is an easy-to-make high nutrient meal with very adaptable ingredient options. Here is my starter suggestion made with Rice, quinoa and chicken breasts which can be purchased pre-cooked or cooked in advance.
This is a warm comforting alternative to grain-containing cereal and it’s similar in consistency to oatmeal, but it is high in protein, fiber and fat.
It is a low glycemic cereal that helps you keep your blood sugar from spiking.
