Being on the road as much as I am, the temptation of fast food is always there. These are some simple lunches I've put together lately and I thought it may inspire some of you!

I have been on a quest for a good boxed mac and cheese for you know, those moments when nothing else sounds good and you need something easy to throw together.

Well thank goodness for Target because I finally found one to try and guess what? It is super good!

Salsa Chicken is SUCH an easy dinner recipe, but it gets old, so I decided to kick it up a notch.

Yesterday I finally went to get a second opinion on my heath.

Here's a brief recap of how it went…

These winter months get TOUGH. We crave creature comfort foods that often aren't the most nutritious.

Here's a super simple throw together meal to warm you up on these cold winter days.

This recipe has been all over my for you page on TikTok so I decided to give it a whirl. It honestly couldn't be easier.

We enjoyed ours with smoked venison and they were amazing. I ate just about the whole bag of them and will definitely be making them again.

This week I wanted to give up basically everyday. This journey is so hard. The guilt for indulging in a couple pieces of birthday cake and the scale reflecting the indulgence.

The feeling like two a day workouts and watching every single thing you consume is the only way to stay on track. Knowing you can gain it back 10x faster than you lost it if you have some miss-steps.

If you are ever in need of a quick and easy meal stop when you are out and about I recently discovered that Five Guys has a burger bowl option. It is great for a gf, df, alternative when you are on the go. You can choose if you want a hamburger or a cheeseburger and all of their toppings are free, so you can have it all!

About a month ago I started going to see Naturally Rach in St. Paul (check her out here) and have been doing bi-weekly cupping and energy work. I cannot recommend it enough. I had no expectations going into my first session. I only wanted to try it out and see if I could feel a difference in my body and my autoimmune flairs. I have been doing so good at keeping my flairs in check with what I am eating I wanted to see if this could also relieve some inflammation.

Seriously simple and fulfilling! A hearty weeknight dinner.

This recipe is so bold and flavorful you are going to love it.

Layer rice, pickles, pickled onions, pork, mushrooms/onions, and avocado. Top with GF yum yum sauce and a drizzle of coconut aminos.

I am obsessed with Sushi lately. I can't get enough, so when I stumbled upon this recipe I knew I could simplify it to make it more doable for a weeknight dinner.

Rice at the bottom, add shrimp, avocado, jalapeno, matchstick carrots, cucumbers, and fried onions. Drizzle with sriracha mayo and coconut aminos. Top with Black Sesame Seeds if desired.

I know most of you readers already know, but here I am with all the details. Chad and I got engaged 11/19/2021 in Duluth. Now to the fun part. Chad came with me on a day trip to Duluth. He came with me to visit a few customers then we went for a walk on the pier. We were having a normal kerfuffle because he was being weird about there being people all around us lol, little did I know he was panicking trying to find the perfect moment to drop to one knee.

This is one of my go to winter crockpot recipes. It is so easy and it makes wonderful leftovers.

Toss it all in the crockpot on low for 6-8 hours, shred chicken and mix it all together.

Top with Coconut yogurt/sour cream, avocado, jalapeno, cheese/cheese substitute

Enjoy!
