Healthy recipes for your New Year...here's to the weekend
Published 3 months ago • 3 min read
Hi Friend,
Time has flown and here we are, 2025! How are you doing? My winter break with the kids absolutely flew by this year, in the best way possible (Christmas with little ones who believe in Santa is just magical). To start off your new years I'm sharing healthy recipes!
Theme of the week: Healthy Recipes
Vitamin C Boost Smoothie
A vibrant, immune-boosting Vitamin C Smoothie packed with oranges, mango, and pineapple, perfect for meal prep to keep you healthy and energized all winter long.
You can prep these into smoothie bags ahead of time.
I love this freezer frittata recipe (with salsa and sausage) for so many reasons, but top of the list is that it packs so many flavors and is great for a make ahead family breakfast meal prep recipe! And, this is a wonderful gluten-free breakfast idea!
Tired of boring lunches? It’s hard enough to get a lunch packed, but how about a healthy one? Enter this pepperoni pasta salad in a jar. This healthy lunch on the go is just what you need to say goodbye to boring lunches!
This 5 ingredient slow cooker buffalo chicken and quinoa is perfect for a protein-filled lunch or dinner recipe that is comforting, delicious and healthy all at the same time. It’s great for meal prepping and is an easy slow cooker recipe!
Looking for a meal prep snack everyone will love? These peanut butter protein balls are super delicious and versatile, and the whole family loves these!
This weeksLove List I share how I'm making the best ever coffee at home, some fun snack containers I found for the kids and is anyone else watching Virgin River?
Salmon bites with avocado cucumber salsa
OMG this recipe! It's super delicious and healthy. I made it a few times, perfecting it and then just had to share it. I include air fryer and stovetop instructions (I love making this in my air fryer). Even the kids ate this, Frankie calls it 'pink fish' lol
We had a fun new years eve, we let the kids stay up as late as they wanted. Ben made it to midnight lol. The next day Sam fell asleep on Nick and Frankie fell asleep on the floor at his feet. We also walked through the Zoo Lights, they were beautiful.
