CASHEW CHICKEN (gf) A satisfying, nutritious, and CASHEW CHICKEN (gf) 
A satisfying, nutritious, and most importantly delicious meal that comes together in one skillet! 

Sauce: 
1/4 cup tamari 
1/2 cup chicken bone broth 
2 tbsp rice vinegar 
2 tsp sesame oil 
1 tbsp honey 
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes 
1 tbsp arrowroot starch/flour

Chicken: 
1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts 
1/2 tsp sea salt 
1/4 tsp black pepper pepper 
1 tsp garlic powder 
1/4 cup arrowroot starch/flour
2 tbsp avocado oil, for cooking 

Stir fry: 
1 tbsp avocado oil 
Heaping 3 cups broccoli florets
1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1 inch pieces 
3 cloves garlic, minced 
1 tbsp freshly grated ginger 
3/4 cups unsalted cashews, raw or toasted 
2 green onions, sliced, plus more for serving 
For serving: cooked rice, sesame seeds 

1. Add the sauce ingredients to a jar or small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside. 
2. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel, then cut into bite-sized pieces. Place in a medium bowl. Sprinkle the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and about half of the arrowroot over the chicken and toss to coat. Add the remaining arrowroot and toss again. 
3. Heat 2 tbsp of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the chicken in a single layer and allow to cook, undisturbed, until golden brown underneath, about 3-4 minutes (the pieces of chicken tend to stick together because of the arrowroot - just do your best to separate them with tongs once you add them to the skillet). Flip and cook for another few minutes, until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside. 
4. Reduce the heat to medium and add 1 tbsp avocado oil. Add the broccoli and bell pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 4-5 min, or until veggies are crisp-tender. Add the garlic, ginger and cashews and cook for about 30 seconds. 
5. Whisk the sauce once more, then add to the skillet. Stir, scraping up any brown bites from the bottom. Stir in the chicken and allow to simmer for a few minutes or until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken well. Remove from the heat and stir in the green onion.
6. Serve with rice and garnish with sesame seeds and additional green onion. Enjoy!
CHOCOLATE PEANUT RICE CRISPY TREATS (gf, df) Cru CHOCOLATE PEANUT RICE CRISPY TREATS (gf, df) 

Crunchy, slightly chewy and packed with chocolate pb goodness! This no bake treat is lower in sugar, but also sneaks in some nutrient-dense ingredients like raw cacao, hemp hearts, chia seeds and collagen peptides 🫶 

Ingredients: 
2 cups brown rice crisp cereal (I used @onedegreeorganics )
1/4 cup hemp hearts 
2 tbsp chia seeds
1/4 cup collagen peptides (optional)
2 tbsp cacao powder 
1/4 tsp sea salt 
1/2 cup natural, creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup maple syrup 
2 tbsp coconut oil 
1 tsp vanilla extract 

Chocolate drizzle 
2 tbsp dark chocolate chips
1/2 tsp coconut oil 

Instructions: 
1. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside. 
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cereal, hemp hearts, chia seeds, collagen peptides, cacao powder and sea salt. 
3. Add the peanut butter, maple syrup, and coconut oil to a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat until melted, whisking occasionally.  Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. 
4. Pour the peanut butter mixture over the cereal and mix until well combined. The mixture should stick together when squeezed between your fingers, but if it seems too dry, add a little splash of milk or water and mix again. 
5. Transfer to the loaf pan and spread out into an even layer. Using the bottom of a measuring cup or your fingers, firmly press the mixture down. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes to firm up. 
6. Remove the bars from the freezer, transfer to a cutting board and cut into 12-14 bars. 
7. To make the chocolate drizzle, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave in 30 second increments, stirring in between.  Drizzle over the bars. Place in the fridge to harden the chocolate, then enjoy! 
Store in the fridge (these also freeze well - allow to sit at room temp for about 5 minutes before eating)

Here’s what I prepped this week! 🥦🥕Having Here’s what I prepped this week! 🥦🥕Having some breakfast and snack options ready to go help me the most in this season of life, but when it comes to lunch and dinner I tend to prep components, rather than full meals, so I can have more variety and flexibility with meals throughout the week. 

Some weeks I’m able to prep absolutely nothing 😆, but I find even having a couple things made ahead of time, or batch cooking so the freezer is stocked with options, can make eating healthy during the week a little easier! 

Recipes for the onions, breakfast casserole, stewed apples and protein bars are in my feed/website, or comment “RECIPES” and I’ll send them directly to you!

They’re packed with protein and made with healthy ingredients like almond flour, ground chicken, greek yogurt, and eggs to keep you fuelled all morning.

HOMEMADE IMMUNITY GUMMIES🫚🍊 Made with fresh HOMEMADE IMMUNITY GUMMIES🫚🍊

Made with fresh citrus, spicy ginger, turmeric and honey, these are similar to wellness shots, but in gummy form!

A fun way to support your immune system and add more anti-inflammatory foods to your diet, but they’re also really great for skin and gut health ✨

Ingredients: 
1/2 cup filtered water 
1.5 tbsp freshly grated ginger (no need to peel — just wash well first)
1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice, strained to remove pulp (3-4 medium oranges)
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice 
1 tsp ground turmeric 
A few grinds of black pepper 
5 tbsp grass-fed bovine gelatin powder (I used @organikahealth )
2 tbsp raw honey, or to taste 

Directions:
1. Add water and grated ginger to a small pot and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, cover and set aside for 15 minutes. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl, pressing the ginger with the back of a spoon to get all the liquid. 
2. Wipe out the pot. Return the ginger tea to the pot, along with the orange juice, lemon juice, turmeric and black pepper. Whisk to combine. 
3. Sprinkle the gelatin evenly over the surface of the liquid and let sit for about 5 minutes to allow it to bloom. The gelatin should swell and have a gelly-like consistency. 
4. Heat gently over low heat and whisk frequently until gelatin has completely dissolved. Do not let the mixture come to a boil! The liquid will go from a thicker consistency to more of a liquid. Remove from the heat. 
5. Stir in the honey, adding more if needed to reach your desired sweetness. 
6. Pour into a glass baking dish lightly greased with coconut oil (mine was 7x5”), or silicone molds. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until set. Cut gummies into squares and store in an airtight container in the fridge. 
If you’d like a slightly softer texture, take gummies out of the fridge and let sit at room temperature for a bit before enjoying.

Sausage & Butternut Squash Skillet (gluten-free) Sausage & Butternut Squash Skillet (gluten-free)

An easy, cozy and nourishing dinner made with Italian sausage (you can use pork or chicken), white beans, kale and bone broth for added nutrients! It comes together in one pan for easy cleanup and packs in both protein and fibre for a nice filling meal 👌

Serves 4:

2 tbsp avocado oil, divided 
1 lb Italian sausage, casings removed (pork or chicken, preferably pasture-raised) 
1/2 red onion, diced 
4 cups cubed butternut squash (~I/2 inch cubes)
Sea salt and pepper to taste 
3 cloves garlic, minced 
2 tsp dried thyme 
1/2 tsp paprika
Red pepper flakes, optional

1 15 oz can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed 
3 cups chopped kale
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, plus more for serving

2.  Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining oil. Add the onion and butternut squash, season with salt and pepper and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic, thyme, paprika, and pepper flakes and cook for another minute. 
3. Add the broth and white beans, scrapping any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until squash is just fork tender, stirring occasionally. 
4. Add the sausage back to the skillet along with the kale, and cook, uncovered, until the kale has wilted. Add the parmesan and stir to combine. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Pumpkin Tahini Caramel Bars Sweet, salty, nutty, a Pumpkin Tahini Caramel Bars
Sweet, salty, nutty, and packed with those delicious pumpkin pie spices. These are honestly one of my favourite pumpkin desserts yet 🎃🍂 Gluten-free, dairy-free and made with healthier ingredients!

Crust:
1 1/4 cup almond flour
3/4 cup oat flour
¼ cup cup coconut oil, melted and slightly cooled
2 tbsp maple syrup
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Tahini Caramel Layer: 
1/2 cup tahini
1/3 cup pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
⅛ tsp sea salt
1 tsp vanilla extract

Chocolate Topping: 
100 g chopped dark chocolate, ~3/4 cup (or dark chocolate chips)
1 tbsp coconut oil
Flaked sea salt optional

1. Add all of the base ingredients to a bowl and mix well to form a dough. It should easily stick together when squeezed in your hands. Transfer to the pan and press the down evenly with your fingers. Using a fork, poke some holes in the crust to let the steam escape. Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until golden around the edges. It will still be a bit soft, but will firm up as it cools. Set aside and allow to cool. 
3. Once the crust has cooled, add the tahini, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, coconut oil, pumpkin pie spice, and sea salt to a small pot. Heat over medium low for a few minutes, stirring frequently, until coconut oil is melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla extract. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
4. Pour the tahini caramel over the crust and spread out evenly with a silicone spatula. Place in the freezer for 1 hour to set.
5. Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a double boiler or microwave, stirring every 30 seconds.
6. Remove the pan from the freezer and pour the melted chocolate over top. Working quickly, spread out the chocolate by tilting the pan. Place in the fridge for another 10 minutes to set. 
7. Remove the pan from the fridge and sprinkle with flaked sea salt if using. Pull out the bars using the parchment paper, then using a sharp knife, cut into 16 squares. 
8. Store in the fridge or freezer. If storing in the freezer, allow bars to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes before enjoying.
A little look at some of the things I’ve been ea A little look at some of the things I’ve been eating postpartum 🥩🍲🍳🥑

Most people don’t realize that nutrient needs are actually higher during early postpartum (fourth trimester) than in pregnancy. Because of this I really tried to prep as much food for my freezer as possible so that I could make sure I was properly nourishing my body during this time and focusing more on rest and my baby instead of cooking!

A lot of these meals looked pretty similar to how I’d normally eat, with even more of a focus on nutrient dense foods that support healing and recovery:

✨Warm, cooked foods, which are easier to digest (especially broth based meals for the collagen building amino acids)
✨Quality protein like eggs, meat (especially slow cooked), bone broth and seafood 
✨Healthy fats like butter, avocado, eggs, fatty fish, nuts/seeds, grassfed beef 
✨Complex carbs (paired with fat and protein for stable energy) 
✨Electrolytes, which are especially important for milk production 

Of course there’s still been plenty of times I really struggled to find the time to cook, so there’s also been a lot more takeout than normal and random things thrown together that weren’t always ideal. 

Now 3 months postpartum (and breastfeeding), I’m still focusing on similar nutrient dense foods, making larger batches of food, staying properly hydrated, and just consuming enough food/calories in general, which plays a huge part in milk supply!

Cinnamon Stewed Apples (no added sugar) A nouris Cinnamon Stewed Apples (no added sugar) 

A nourishing fall staple that’s perfect for topping yogurt, chia pudding, pancakes or just enjoy as is🥰

- stewed apples are packed with pectin, a prebiotic fibre that feeds your good bacteria and can help reduce inflammation
- the cooking process makes the apples easier to digest and can help the body absorb nutrients more efficiently 
- cinnamon is rich in antioxidants and supports healthy blood sugar levels 

Recipe: 
2 large apples, cored and chopped (~3-4 cups)*
1/4 cup + 1 tbsp water 
1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/2-1 tsp ground cinnamon 
Pinch sea salt 
1 tsp arrowroot starch/flour (or cornstarch)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract 

1. Add the apples, 1/4 cup of water, apple cider vinegar,  cinnamon and salt to a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are just tender, about 10-15 minutes (timing will depend on the type of apple you use and how big the pieces are). 
2. Meanwhile, add the arrowroot and 1 tbsp of water in a small bowl and stir to combine. Once apples are tender, add to the saucepan and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the liquid thickens. Stir in the vanilla. Enjoy! 

*I prefer using honeycrisp apples for this recipe, but Granny Smith, Fuji, Pink Lady or other firm varieties would work well! 
*I don’t find it necessary to add any sugar, but if you’re looking to make them sweeter, feel free to add some maple syrup

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins One of my all-ti Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins 

One of my all-time favourite muffin recipes that are always a hit with anyone I make them for! Full recipe below👇

Soft, fluffy and loaded with dark chocolate chips, these taste like a treat but are made with wholesome ingredients and are packed with healthy fats and fibre. The best way to use up any zucchini you might have! 

Makes 12 muffins

1 cup oat flour
1 cup almond flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
2 eggs
1 medium ripe banana, mashed
1/4 cup avocado oil or olive oil
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups shredded zucchini
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 425°F and line a muffin tin with liners.
Wrap the shredded zucchini in a clean tea towel and squeeze out any excess water. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, sea salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, banana, olive oil, maple syrup and vanilla. Add the zucchini and stir to combine.
Pour the liquid mixture into the dry and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix! Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop into muffin liners and top with extra chocolate chips if desired. 
Bake at 425°F for 5 minutes (this helps to give the muffins more height). Turn the temperature down to 350°F (don’t open the oven door) and bake for 13-15 more minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!

Healthy Trail Mix Cookies These delicious cookie Healthy Trail Mix Cookies 

These delicious cookies have been a staple for us for years now and are something I always prep for summer adventures (and now for my postpartum freezer stash!). 

They’re packed with protein, fibre and healthy fats to help keep you energized and pair perfectly with a cup of coffee or tea 😊. For a sweeter cookie, feel free to swap the cranberries for chocolate chips!

Makes ~24 cookies 

Ingredients: 
1 medium ripe banana, mashed
1/3 cup drippy almond butter or other nut/seed butter
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanila extract
1 large egg
1.5 cups rolled oats (I use @onedegreeorganics)
1/3 cup almond flour
1/2 cup raw walnuts, chopped
1/4 cup each of raw pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and hemp hearts
2 tbsp chia seeds
1/3 cup dried cranberries (preferably unsweetened or sweetened with apple juice), roughly chopped
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp sea salt

Instructions: 
Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the banana, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla and egg.
Add the remaining ingredients to a large bowl and stir to combine.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir together. Let sit for 5 minutes. The dough will be wetter than a normal cookie dough.
Use an cookie scoop or spoon to drop the batter onto the baking sheet (~2 tbsp each). These cookies won’t spread out much during baking, so you don’t need to leave too much space between them. Using damp hands, gently flatten the dough and press the edges in to create a cookie shape. The dough will be sticky, so continue to wet your hands to make this process easier. 
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges are set and lightly golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
