May you be happy
May you be healthy
May you feel loved
May you feel safe
May you feel joy

These and so much more are my wishes for my sweet Wylie as he learns and grows and experiences this world.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My meditation this morning was on loving kindness. And applying it to ourselves. What we wholeheartedly wish for those we love most, unapologetically asking for it for ourselves.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you're having troubles finding compassion for yourself, think of what you'd say to your best friend, your sister, your sweet babe, if they were in need of a bit of lifting up.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So take a breath, take a moment for yourself and recite this or whatever feels fitting for you ❤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
May I be happy
May I be healthy
May I be loved
May I be safe
May I feel joy
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Wishing you all a wonderful week ahead! What is one word (or many!) You'd slot in here?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PS found this old photo of Wylie when he was 4 months old scrolling my camera the other day. How is he almost 1?!

What did you have for brekky this morning? Or did it get skipped in the mad dash out the door?⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
Peanut butter toast is a tried and true staple for me. I probably have it 2-3 days a week and it's always my go to when I'm in a rush! Takes less than 5 minutes to pull together and covers all the bases.⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
Did you know that us nutrition nerds refer to Fat as the "satiety factor" of a meal? ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
⁣
Fat (nut butter in this case) carries flavor molecules and slows gastric emptying (aka digestion) which in turn slows the rate our blood sugars rise, keeps up feeling full and satisfied longer, and prevents that feeling of being "full" but not "satisfied" ⠀⁣

I love a good OG pb & banana but some other favorite combos to top PB toast!⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
Blueberries, raspberries or Strawberries⁣
Sliced Apple or Pear⁣
Fresh Figs⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
If I’m feeling fancy I’ll add an extra sprinkle to boost the nutrition⁣
Hemp heart⁣
Chia seeds⁣
Cacao nibs⁣
Flax⁣
Sunflower seeds⁣
And I love the @muthadukkah nut & seed mixes!⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
Today’s toast ⁣
@silverhillsbakery Max Flax⁣
@newworldfoods creamy peanut butter⁣
And lots of blueberries⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
Have you tried any of these combos with PB? ⁣

Is more home cooked meals on your list for this ye

Is more home cooked meals on your list for this year? If this sounds appealing, but somewhat daunting, enter fast foods.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Fast Foods are my ultimate meal prep savior!! These are whole foods that require little to no extra prep but allow for a ton of variety from a few simple meal prep ingredients!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some of my faves
🌮 Quick cooking proteins like salmon, prawns, tofu, tempeh or any kind of bean (canned and rinsed is totally fine!) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🌶 Spices
My staples are cumin, chili powder, chili flakes, turmeric, onion & garlic powder but there are so many more that give completely different flavor to simple meal prep ingredients
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🌱 Fresh herbs
Mint, basil, cilantro, and parsley add instant freshness to salads, rice dishes, buddha bowls, or mix with some greek yogurt, olive oil and a pinch of salt for an instant "fancy" sauce for your proteins
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🥕 Veggies
Bins of greens + a slaw mix are staples for me every week. Combined they make a great big batch salad, or add a handful of greens to smoothies, pizza, pastas, or eggs for an easy way to get daily greens!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Other ready to go veggies to keep on hand - snap peas, baby carrots, cherry tomatoes, pre cut cauliflower or broccoli
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🍞 Carbs
buns, tortillas, bread, and there are actually some great options these days for microwavable grains! Quinoa and lentil mixes, brown and wild rice - take a look next time you're shopping!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By prepping some simple core ingredients on the weekend & stocking up on Fast Foods like these, weekday meals become so much less intimidating, time consuming & much more exciting to eat!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not saying that a good ol burger or nuggets don't hit the spot sometimes, but eating them because you want to, not because you ran out of time again makes each experience that much more enjoyable!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you're new around here form the @moga_moms takeover today, welcome!! I'd love if you'd introduce yourself and let me know what you'd like to learn!

What are your favorite fast foods to keep on hand?

I’ve got snacks! 5 minute Creamy Buffalo White B

I’ve got snacks! 5 minute Creamy Buffalo White Bean Hummus.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve always been a big snacker, I seriously look forward to it throughout the day. But I know it can get a bit boring, and admittedly, I’m not the hugest fan of regular hummus (ghost face) so I like to spice it up with different flavors. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This one is made with white beans instead of chickpeas and satisfies my hot sauce obsession. Haha ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To make
1 540ml can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1.5 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp tahini
1 ½ -2 Tbsp hot sauce (I used @franksredhot inside and topped with more sriracha)
¼ tsp salt
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend until smooth. Top with more olive oil or hot sauce and serve with veggies or pita chips!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This recipe was inspired by @saveonfoods ‘ Ready. Set. Refresh Guide. A completely free guide they put together for you with lots of simple tips and ideas to kickstart 2020 feeling healthy and energized! #ad ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'll share a little more about it and the nutrition benefits of this dip in my stories if you want to take a peek! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What’s your favorite easy snack?

I'm kind of obsessed with this prep ahead breakfas

I'm kind of obsessed with this prep ahead breakfast. I totally developed a sweet tooth during pregnancy, and it never really left! haha (add a splash of maple syrup if you like a little sweetness!)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you can't quite do the texture of the whole chia seeds, use ground or blend your pudding before letting it set... Game Changer!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can also watch the full video with some extra nutrition tidbits on my YouTube Channel (just search lindsay pleskot chia pudding on YouTube or find my channel at the link in my bio!) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These take about 5 minutes to blend up. Pour into 5 jars or containers and top as desired morning of!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Chia seeds are packed with calcium, anti-inflammatory Omega-3 fatty acids, and blood sugar stabilizing soluble fiber. Such a great way to start the day!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you ever tried this blended version of chia pudding!? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
