How was your Thanksgiving?

My partner and I had a very low-key Thanksgiving just the two of us this year. We’re still rich in leftovers, which is my favorite part about these holiday feasts. 

If you aren’t teaming with leftovers, we’ve got you! Sticking with a routine is important to me, and the simple act of preparing the week’s meals in advance can make the week go so smoothly. This to say, we’re still here, meal planning it up!

On the menu this week: Roasted Squash Salad, Black Bean Soup, Moroccan Chickpea and Butternut Squash, Vegan Butternut Squash Pasta, Crispy Baked Sweet Potato and Black Bean Tacos, and Creamy Tahini Spaghetti Squash.

I hope you’re enjoying the holiday season!

Heyo!

How are we feeling?

This week is going to be an interesting one for all of us. It will mean a lot of changes for what I’m guessing is the majority of individuals, myself included. We’re all doing the best we can to stay connected, but with that comes some restrictions.

Wherever you are, I hope Thanksgiving week is as stress-free and fun as it possibly can be. Let’s make a casual agreement to make the best of it, and to form new traditions if need be.

Whatever your holiday season is shaping up to look like, remember we are all in this together. It’s best to celebrate our commonalities and give ourselves and each other some grace. 

If you’re like me, this week is going to look remarkably similar to most other weeks. If you’re in that boat and are keeping to your routine, we’ve got you – here’s your weekly meal plan to keep meal making easy and to keep that body of yours well-nourished!

On this week’s Vegetarian Meal Plan: Vegan Broccoli Tacos, Lentil Quinoa Meatballs, Cream of Mushroom and Wild Rice Soup, Vegetarian Tortilla Soup, Roasted Vegetable Buddha Bowls, and Chickpea Salad Sandwiches.

Much love to you and yours!

Oh hey there! 

What are you up to this weekend? It’s storming here, so I’m using my quality indoor time to sweat it out at the gym and get ready for Thanksgiving. I find sticking with the same tried and true dishes is always the best bet for keeping folks satisfied.

If you’re in need of some holiday side dishes, be sure to check out my Gluten-Free Cornbread (it’s also dairy-free), Mediterranean Scalloped Potatoes, and Healthy Sweet Potato Casserole…they’ll be the talk of the celebration!

How are you this weekend?!

Are you getting excited for the upcoming holiday season? Feeling worried and overwhelmed, or perhaps jubilant and thrilled? 

Emotions are high right now, and while I can’t pretend to contribute to anyone’s personal solution, the one thing I will say is this: I truly believe we are in charge of our own destiny. 

Regardless of where you come from, your thoughts or feelings, you are the one who’s calling the shots.

And guess what? You’re already one step ahead on the week for clicking on this blog post and putting energy toward the future! So let’s keep at it – whether we’re charging or crawling, we’re all in life together, and life is beautiful

Happy Weekend to ya!

If you’re handling the current social, political and economic climate like me, the last few weeks (slash months) have been ultra stressful. One of the things I try to do when I’m more stressed than usual is keep everything in life as basic as possible. 

I say no to things I know will be more stressful than they’re worth.

I spend time with the people who make me feel relaxed rather than ramped up.

I honor my emotions but also zoom out enough to see the situation in a logical light so that I’m still valuing the way I feel without over-feeling.

And I try to stay organized with my priorities, get enough exercise, and keep my meals simple, nourishing and delicious.

This is where meal prep becomes ultra useful. While many of us feel we never have enough time for meal prepping, making it a priority lifts a huge burden off my shoulders. I don’t have to think about what I’m going to make for dinner because it’s already made, and I don’t have to make multiple trips to the store throughout the week.

That said, I hope you find these meal plans equally beneficial and can use them as a way to simplify and de-stress.

Oh, and when all else fails, baking a batch of Healthy Apple Muffins never ceases to soothe the soul.

On this week’s meal plan: Roasted Sweet Potato Kale Salad with Avocado and Jammy Egg, Lentil Sandwiches with Herbed Ricotta, Roasted Cauliflower and Farro Salad, Immunity Boosting Soup, Peanut Noodles and Broccoli, and The Best Vegan Chili.

Hope you enjoy!
