Easy Roasted Red Pepper & Tomato Soup

By Leave a Comment

I’m a sucker for a good soup, especially this time of year. I also love all things roasted red peppers. This Roasted Red Pepper Soup is on repeat at my household and pairs nicely with a grilled cheese, egg sandwich, or just by itself with some parmesan cheese. Upgrade your lunch OR dinner this week.

Soup Season

Can you believe it’s already December? When did that happen? It seems like yesterday it was just summer and we were talking about how hot it was. I think that’s normal to just want to talk about the weather. I never pay attention to what weather is coming, I normally just find out when I take the dog for a walk in the morning. These past few mornings have been brutal.

I’m not from Upstate NY and I’m not really sure I will ever become accustomed to the weather. Maryland had winters & seasons but they were never quite this extreme. I mean, my FACE hurts here. I go out to walk the dog and think I’ll be okay and then I come back and can’t even move my mouth because it’s frozen. WHAT IS THAT ABOUT.

That being said, when it gets cold out, one of the ways I cope with it is to make all the soups. I actually have a favorite from Pacific Foods that is their Roasted Red Pepper soup. I figured, why not try and make this on my own (a normal saying of mine)? Soup season gets me through the winter, somehow.

Easy Meals

Soups, in general, are very easy to make. I find people telling me all the time that they would cook from home if it wasn’t so hard to do. Let me tell you, as long as you have the right tools (if you don’t snag my gift guide here), soups are SO easy to make. The best part is you can blend in a ton of vegetables and hide them from yourself, your kids, your husband, etc. Win-win all around.

I am going to continue to find ways to bring you easy meals because I want you to eat healthy without thinking it takes HOURS to make. If you find that even a meal like this takes too long to make then you may need to invest in a cooking class or two. Cooking is an essential skill you should learn, and once you start learning you’ll realize how fun it can be.

Roasted Red Pepper & Tomato Soup

This soup is my new favorite thing. It is light in flavor and can be paired with many things. My favorite this week has been making an egg & cheese sandwich/grilled cheese on the side and dipping the bread into. I also sometimes put frozen spinach and broccoli in the soup as well to bump the vegetable content and make it more filling.

If you’re into dairy & can handle it, I suggest adding the half & half and even some parmesan cheese to make it even creamier than it already is! Stop making excuses as to why you can’t eat more veggies or can’t cook from home. This soup is easy, just make sure you’re not wearing a white shirt while making it #rookiemistake.  Enjoy!

Pro Tip: grab yourself an immersion blender so that you can make blended soups all winter long. This one is my favorite.

Carrot Cake Overnight Oats

By 1 Comment

When the week is crazy busy, it helps to have breakfast prepared ahead of time. I’m one to skip breakfast if it’s not ready for me during the week because I hit the ground running when I wake up. These Carrot Cake Overnight Oats were a tasty touch this week and I hope they can you fuel up during a busy (or non-busy) week.

TGIF

This has been a busy week (as per usual) and busy in a very good way. I hit the ground running after Thanksgiving and I’m looking forward to continuing at this pace through the holidays. I have a lot projects in the air and am hopeful some of them will turn into even bigger opportunities.

I have to say, running a business takes a village. I am so incredibly grateful for all those that have been in my corner the last year and had my back no matter what. There are things that no one tells you when you run your own business and I have somehow surrounded myself with such amazing people that if I have a question, concern, or small win, I have someone to call to talk to, help me out, or celebrate with me.

If you’re reading this, you’re also one of those people. Even just reading this blog (behind the scenes) means the world to me and I’m thankful to have your support.

Speaking of support, I want to introduce you to…

Sassy’s Side Dish

Yes, you read that right 😉 My new support system for you AND for me.

Anyone reading this is welcome to join and it’s meant to be a place for you to ask me questions and to support others who are on their healthy journey (aren’t we all 😉 ) with you.

Overnight Oats for Meal Prep

Okay okay, a bit off topic but I couldn’t hold it in anymore, so go join us over there and then come back here and enjoy these overnight oats. I love meal prepping, it’s something that is a stress outlet for me. I enjoy both the cooking and the part where I have meals planned for the busy week ahead. Being busy doesn’t mean you should just throw caution to the wind and hope healthy eating just happens. News flash: it won’t “just happen.”

carrot cake overnight oats

I’m usually a savory breakfast person but overnight oats have been just as good for breakfast these days. I think they are mostly good because I have to do absolutely nothing to prepare them during the week. I’m moving to more coaching in the mornings so these will come into play even more as I’ll be eating breakfast away from home. Grab yourself some mason jars and do yourself a favor and add these to your meal prep list this week.

Carrot Cake Overnight Oats

Why carrot cake? Well the owner of my gym was raving about his wife’s infamous carrot cake and I needed breakfast for the week so BOOM! Inspiration. It’s usually that simple for me when I need new recipe ideas. I decided I’d try and take all the healthy parts of a carrot cake (i.e. carrots, walnuts, raisins) and leave out the cake part of it and replace with oats and milk and yogurt. The result? Deliciousness.

carrot cake overnight oats

I’m not even really a raisin person but they aren’t a huge part of this recipe, instead they add some nice texture and a little sweetness as there is minimal sugar in this recipe (hello! I’m a dietitian afterall). I also love the idea of veggies at breakfast too so the added touch of carrots is a fun and healthy idea for me.

These take all of 5 minutes to whip up, so even if you hate cooking, you should be able to find time to make these. Stop making excuses and start making overnight oats. Ok? Good talk. Enjoy!

Pro Tip: Feel free to double the recipe if meal prepping for more than 1 person and portion into single serve so breakfast (or snacks) so they are easy to grab and go during the week.

Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas

By Leave a Comment

When meal planning for the week I always try to pick one dinner that will be easy to double or triple so that I can count on leftovers for dinner and/or lunch. These Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas were the winning ticket this week and I think I may be making more of these soon.

Sheet Pan Meals

You all have asked, and I’m trying my best to keep up! You said you want simple & healthy meals. Look, I get it! Me too. This whole one sheet pan meal is not only easy but also delicious. The best part (in my opinion) is the cleanup. I mean, who wants to have to clean 500 pans after making a delicious dinner? I know I sure don’t.

I made this sheet pan as part of my meal prep this week and the good news is that you can heat it up during the week and feel like you’re getting a home cooked meal with zero effort. Get yourself a pan that you enjoy using. I have 3 and honestly, I prefer this one over all of them EVERY TIME. Why do we keep things we don’t need an end up using 1% of what we actually have?! Haha, oh well.

Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas

Why chicken fajitas? Because I love all things Mexican food related. If it fits in a taco, it doesn’t matter, I’ll make it fit. These are going to go on tacos one night and then in a rice bowl the next.

Chicken fajitas are a great weeknight meal that pleases everyone because it’s a protein AND a veggie that most people enjoy. Eating healthy is important but if it doesn’t taste great then chances are you are going to eat it long term, so enjoy this fast and delicious dinner on me tonight (or yah know when you have a second to make it. )

Pro Tip: Make your own taco seasoning and have it on hand for a recipe like this, use it mixed with a bit of oil and use enough to coat the chicken & veggies.

  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Instant Pot Sous Vide Egg Bites

By 2 Comments

If you follow me on Instagram you know one of my go-to breakfasts on the road is the Sous-Vide Egg Bites from Starbucks. Why? Because they are easy to grab and go, I know my stomach can tolerate them, and they taste delicious. The other reason is that there is a Starbucks almost anywhere I go, so it’s nice to have something to rely on.

Protein On the Go

The other great part about these egg bites is that they are a great source of protein. It’s not every day you can find an easy & quick source or protein. More often than not I find both myself and my clients struggle with getting enough protein. These have been a lifesaver on the road.

A serving (2 bites) has 19g of protein which for me will hold me over for quite some time. If I’m really hungry I’ll usually grab a Flat White & an Oatmeal as well with fresh blueberries for an entire meal that will stick with me and make me feel my best on the road.

More Instant Pot Recipes

I was at a local competition yesterday and when I was low-key dying between events, a fellow crossfitter from a local gym came up to me and said “more Instant Pot recipes, please!” I said, “right now?!?!”. HA! He obviously meant in the future, but hey, he asked and guess what he’s getting a new recipe today, YOU’RE WELCOME!!

I do have more Instant Pot recipes in the works for you all, since I’ve been convincing so many people to buy them! I also recommend looking out for some killer Black Friday deals so if you don’t have one, you can stop complaining and TREAT YO’SELF to one.

Egg Bites in the Instant Pot

My sister-in-law knew that I loved the egg bites and suggested I try them in the Instant Pot because she, herself has been making them and loves them for her and her family. I easily could have used a recipe but I very much enjoy trying to make my own. I knew that the cups had eggs & cottage cheese and figured I’d figure out the rest.

I went for a more Mediterranean feel with these but think I’m going to be adding more flavors to them as they are so easy to make, so easy to eat and just all around #sassyapproved.  The cool thing is that if you make these at home they are WAY cheaper than if you buy them out, so you get to eat healthy for cheaper, win-win.

Egg Quality

While I’m all about this balanced real food approach lately (and always). I also want you to focus on quality over quantity as it relates to your diet. People ask me all the time: “How many eggs can I eat in a day?” I always say “it depends”.

What does it depend on? Well, a ton of factors but I promise you the biggest factor as it relates to eggs is the quality OF the eggs. I would bet that the quality of eggs found in Starbucks’ egg bites is nothing to write home about. Sometimes when you are on the go, you have to make compromises. However, when you are home, you have a bit more freedom to make better quality choices.

Nellie’s Free Range Eggs

You have so many options when you are at the grocery store and it can be hard to know which eggs to buy. Now, if you’re lucky you have chickens at home OR friends with chickens. I’m lucky and have lots of friends with chickens, but sometimes I need more eggs because I cook A LOT.

One of my go-to egg purchases is Nellie’s Free Range Eggs. I can find them at my local grocery store(s) and don’t have to pay an arm and a leg to get them. I know that they will almost always have a dark yellow yolk (normally means more nutrients in the yolk) and they will taste phenomenal.

They are Certified Humane & Free Range meaning they have room to roam and be chickens. Just look for the purple carton in the egg aisle or check out where to find them here. They are eggs you can feel good about and enjoy all at once.

Alrighty, on to the real reason you’re here, the Egg Bites in the Instant Pot. Enjoy and if you do, make sure to tag me on @thesassydietitian so I can see what you’re making!

Pro tip: grab yourself an actual mold to make things easier or be verrrrrry careful when putting the egg cups in with these because otherwise, you might have a disaster in the instant pot, or on your counter.

Fig & Maple Breakfast Cookies (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Nut-Free)

By Leave a Comment

I know, I know cookies for breakfast?! Sounds ridiculous coming from a dietitian but hear me out. I struggle to eat breakfast most days of the week as do many of my clients. It’s not that I don’t like breakfast it’s just that I don’t love eating when I first wake up. Now, I’m not saying I need to be bribed with breakfast cookies but having something to grab and go that tastes good and doesn’t sit in my stomach like a brick is helpful.

Cookies for Breakfast?

There are no rules as far as meals go.  You don’t need to eat certain foods for certain meals. So, in that case, these cookies don’t even need to be eaten at breakfast. They could be eaten any time of day, frankly. I personally like them in the morning, but they go well as a nighttime snack as well.

I know some people don’t like to use the word cookie and equate it to health but let’s be honest, a cookie normally is loaded with sugar and not much else. These cookies are mostly oats and have other nutrients from sunflower seeds/butter & figs. Some may disagree, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say these are “healthy” or at least #sassyapproved

Sunflower Seed Butter 

While, yes, I normally use peanut butter, I’m not really biased as far as nut/seed butters go. One of my all time favorite seed butters is 88 Acres. They have 4 main flavors and I love them all in their own right. I find that their maple sunflower seed butter goes so well with both savory and sweet options. This time I went with sweet. My last recipe using it was this one (also amazing).

I had the pleasure of hanging out with 88 Acres while at FNCE and while you would think eating too much of something would be a bad thing, it just made me want more of it. When I got home, I wanted to find new ways to use it and for whatever reason, breakfast cookies came to mind. I mixed up a few ingredients and bam it was a match made in breakfast cookie heaven.

If you have any type of nut allergy you are in luck! 88 Acres is free of the top allergens but the best part is that their products taste so good even those without allergies can enjoy and won’t even know the difference. Try them out and let me know what you think.

Pro Tip: Feel free to add in any other mixins like dried cherries or pepitas to make these cookies your own!

Gluten-Free Green Bean Casserole

By 1 Comment

I have to admit, to my knowledge, I have never had green bean casserole before. Every year I have looked it up and thought “why would I want that?” I guess my background serves me well in that case because I think processed non-enjoyable dish when I think of a traditional green bean casserole. Now, I’m sure many of you will argue that it’s delicious and I have no doubt that it is, it’s just not something I want to eat in the normal way it is made, end of story.

Thanksgiving Side Super Stars

As I showed you the other day, Thanksgiving can be healthy AND delicious, even if indulgent. I’m all for having my cake and eating it too, especially on Thanksgiving. What I’m not about? Eating food that isn’t delicious and doesn’t make me feel good. I’d rather pass on a food that may seem good now to forgo later digestive upset. It’s taken me YEARS to get there, so I don’t expect you all to be there yet. For many, it’s not a big deal, but for others, it can make all the difference in their health.

You should know that when you do find foods that don’t make you feel good, there is ALWAYS a way to make it in a way that serves you. If you can’t make substitutions, you can also swap it for something comparable. You just have to be creative and open to something new. This green bean casserole may be my new favorite side dish, and frankly, wish I could eat it year round….which I may do because what are food rules anyway?!

Classic Green Bean Casserole

I’m pretty sure I’ve never had green bean casserole before because I’m more into fresh ingredients than canned ones. When I picture the traditional casserole I think of onions from a package, condensed mushroom soup from a can, and soggy green beans. I mean, I know I’m exaggerating, but that’s what I think about!

Here are the ingredients of a traditional green bean casserole:

  • 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 dash black pepper
  • 4 cups cooked cut green beans (frozen & canned recommended before fresh are, by the way…)
  • 1-1/3 cups French’s French Fried Onions (yeah, no).

Hard pass.

Gluten-Free Green Bean Casserole

While, once again, I’m sure the above tastes good, it’s just not that appetizing from me. I decided instead to make all parts of the recipe from scratch. You get fresh green beans, fresh onion topping, and your own easy-peasy condensed mushroom sauce.

Fun fact: I was going to use breadcrumbs for the onions but found a few bags of 4505 Pork Rinds in my cabinet from Expo East and thought, huh, I wonder if these will do?!

The flavor of the pork rinds was amazing and I’m so glad I decided to experiment. If you don’t have any pork rinds, or can’t find any, feel free to use bread crumbs instead, just reduce the amount probably in 1/2. However, I highly recommend trying something new 😀

Pro tip: Make this dish ahead of time and allow it to cool & set so that the mushroom sauce thickens and the dish becomes a bit more robust in flavor & texture.
