Remember dresses, skirts, cashmere sweaters, and kitten heels? 👠👗⁠

Will all of those clothes we ordered during the first shutdown still be in style when we finally get to wear them? ⁠

Does anyone else like to eat breakfast for dinner?⁠
No matter what time of day you eat these Orange Cardamom Buckwheat Pancakes - they will bring a smile to your face.⁠
🥞⁠
They're so full of flavor from the cardamom and orange. And because they're made with buckwheat instead of flour, they're 100% gluten-free and higher in fiber and protein than your average pancake.⁠
.⁠
.⁠
I like to add extra orange segments (yay they're finally in season!) and a sprinkle of chopped walnuts. Add a dollop of Greek yogurt for even more protein.⁠
.⁠
PS this recipe is from my Mediterranean Diet for Two Cookbook. Did you get your copy yet? It's available on Amazon!

When life gives you Covid, bite back with a cookie

When life gives you Covid, bite back with a cookie and cup of tea. ⁠⠀
🍪⁠⠀
Thanks a million @Melismonstercookies for sharing a box of your delicious gluten-free cookie mix. I mixed these bad boys up over the weekend - just add butter, PB, and an egg. ⁠⠀
.⁠⠀
.⁠⠀
OMGEEEEE quite possibly the best cookies I've ever tasted in my entire life. Seriously just what the doctor ordered.⁠⠀
🍪⁠⠀
And they really do make me feel better. 😷⁠⠀

You'll want to run right out and pick up a box, so swipe to see what it looks like.⁠⠀

Hello #SnackTime! How about some Better-For-You to

Hello #SnackTime! How about some Better-For-You tortilla chips? ⠀
.⠀
#ad I’m partnering with my friends @TeasdaleSimplyEspecial to share my new favorite way to do tortilla chips. No more greasy, fried corn tortilla chips for this girl. ⠀
.⠀
These baked, protein-enhanced tortilla chips are made with Teasdale Simply Especial’s lean mean, plant-based protein tortillas. They’re packed with 6 grams of plant protein in each serving – from a blend of wheat and bean flours. And WOW are they delicious!⠀
.⠀
I tried the black bean with citrus and the chickpea with cilantro tortillas and I’m having a hard time trying to decide which flavor I like best. Good thing I made a batch of each. ⠀
.⠀
Besides the taste, I also love how their extra protein fills and satisfies me. Who knew chips could be good for you!⠀
.⠀
PS: Teasdale also makes some delicious flavors of canned protein-enhanced beans to go with their tortillas. I used their Spicy Cuban Black Beans (they’re already perfectly seasoned) to make a black bean and cheese dip for my chips.⠀
.⠀

.⠀
Here’s how easy it is to make ⠀
Homemade Baked Chips and Cheesy Black Bean Dip:⠀
.⠀
Serves 4⠀
To make the chips:⠀
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees⠀
➡️ Cut 6 Teasdale Simply Especial Black Bean & Citrus or ⠀
➡️Chickpea & Cilantro tortillas (or a mix) into quarters and lay them in a single layer on a baking sheet.⠀
➡️Lightly spray both sides of the tortilla pieces with cooking oil. Sprinkle with sea salt, cumin, and chili powder to taste.⠀
➡️Bake for 6 minutes, flip the chips over, and bake for another 6 minutes, or until the chips are light golden and starting to crisp. Keep an eye on the bottom rack – I rotated my pans halfway through⠀
➡️Remove the chips from the oven – they’ll continue to crisp up as they cool.⠀
⠀
To make the dip:⠀
Pour the beans with their sauce into a food processor.⠀
Add about ¼ cup cilantro and process until smooth.⠀
Transfer the pureed beans to a microwave-safe serving dish. ⠀
Sprinkle ¼ - ½ cup of shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese over the beans.⠀
Microwave the dip for 1 minute or until bubbly.

Who loves blue cheese dressing but hates all of th

Who loves blue cheese dressing but hates all of the junk in the bottled stuff?⁠
👉 ME (and hopefully YOU!)⁠
.⁠
.⁠
That's why I make this homemade Healthier Blue Cheese Dressing all of the time. I love it on a BLT salad, as a vegetable dip, or drizzled over a plate of fresh tomatoes. ⁠
.⁠
.⁠
It's lightened up and tangy with white wine vinegar, and takes just seconds to make. Here's how: ⁠
.⁠
5 tablespoons olive oil⁠
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar⁠
2 ounces blue cheese⁠
1/4 teaspoon onion powder⁠
pinch sea salt and ground pepper⁠
2 tablespoons water (or more for a thinner consistency)⁠
.⁠
Put everything in your bullet blender and press blend to about 20 seconds.⁠
.⁠

Isn't it the worst when your timing is off?!⁠

Here's a tip: If they're super hard when you buy them, leave them on the counter until you think they could benefit from one more day. That's the point to move them into the fridge where they'll comfortably chill out for a few more days or even a week. When your meal plan and their ripening schedule will meet in perfect harmony 😋⁠

🥑⁠
And when you only need half of an avocado, I've been finding a light spray with cooking oil and a tight wrap in plastic wrap works better to prevent browning than lemon or lime juice.⁠
.
You’re welcome. 😉
