Hey. Hi. Hey-o!
I don’t have a whole bunch of time (about to head downstairs and train my MoveMore groups) but I wanted to sit down for a second and document some of the FOOD that we’ve been consuming around here lately. Yesterday marked the end of a little mini-challenge that I had with myself (the 10-day Advocare Challenge for Nursing Moms if you’re interested) so we’ve been eating A LOT of green things. Since our food color for the month of December was mostly brown…chocolate brown…a little green in the month of January was more than needed. Lots of salads, eggs, crockpot chicken and green smoothies were consumed. Travis and I both feel WAY better and plan to continue this green streak for a little while longer (aka I won’t be making brownies today…maybe this weekend 
).
A little look at what’s been going down:
The biggest container of spring mix I’ve ever seen.
Justin’s Vanilla Almond Butter
Crockpot Chicken (I need to share this recipe ASAP – we eat it at least once a week) and BBQ-flavored Good Beans
I can’t get enough of this Nikki’s Coconut Butter
I love shrimp! I cooked these in a little Kerrygold butter and Trader Joe’s 21 Seasoning Salute.
Told ya. Love it!
QUESTION: What’s your favorite VEGETABLE?? <-I like spinach only because it’s so versatile. But a roasted brussel sprout wins my heart.
splendid…lindsay
I love almond butter on sweet potatoes :) & the crockpot gets used about 3x a week here! Favorite veggie..either roasted sprouts OR grilled asparagus!
We are all about the green around here too. Right now we’re on a broccoli kick….woohoo for winter veggies!
I really love all veggies (I think), but my trifecta lately are brussel sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower roasted with garlic salt. However it gets tricky because my husband hates the smell so I have to make large batches when he’s away from home. Pick your battles :)
yes for sure! roasted broccoli is VERY distinct!
This post = my next meal plan inspiration! No joke. Everything looks so amazing, and that shrimp in Kerrygold?! Never would have thought of that, but how simple. Does that coconut butter have to be ordered online?
Kelsey – I haven’t seen it in stores (at least around here) yet. I ordered from Amazon – http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CLUWMF8/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00CLUWMF8&linkCode=as2&tag=linslis0c-20&linkId=DS6PDO7YJ7A4SZIE
This helps! Thanks for filling me in. Can’t wait to order some soon!
I gotta try that coconut butter it looks sooo good!
I put all my nut butters on sweet potatoes!!! :)
Lately I cannot get enough edamame. I picked up the frozen individual packets from Costco. I nuke them, peel them, and throw them with eggs, avocado, and other veggies..BOOM! :)
Yes nut butter on a sweet potato! Coconut butter is the best though!
mmmm you have officially made me want shrimp!!
I loooove almond butter on a sweet potato!
I’m fairly certain my family wouldn’t get fed with out our crock pot – crock pot chicken happens a lot around here!
