Strawberry Brussels Sprouts Naan Flatbread is an easy appetizer or main made that’s sweet and savoy. Warm naan bread loaded with shaved Brussels sprouts, strawberry mascarpone, fresh strawberries, and a tangy balsamic drizzle. So good.
If you’re following me on Instagram stories you know from my recent updates that I’m nesting like a crazy mother… and that we are officially 3ish weeks away from having our second baby boy.
Life with a wild toddler + newborn is about to get real. Any advice for this second time mama?
Because we moved right before the madness of the holidays and at the end of my busy travel season…. life has not been “normal” for a few months and I am afraid that this is just the way it’s going to be at this phase… at least for a bit.
The essentials like sleep, exercise, home cooked meals, work life balance and a clean house have not been the norm around here these days. When the new year hits I’m usually one for goal setting and evaluating my life but this year… I didn’t have the “urge” as my priorities are a bit different.
As of late I’ve been super focused on decluttering and purging our collection of stuff. Ugh, I am not one to like excess and like to keep “things” at a minimum or it stresses me out. If I don’t use it, I don’t want it to clutter our space.
Anytime you move, you are faced with how much you’ve been hoarding… even if you think you declutter often. It’s a mess. And we seriously sold all of our “big” furniture before we moved out… which was awesome, but then the reality hit of not having ANYTHING in the house for months.
That was stressful. Thankfully we kept our beds, but I’m currently still on the market for a few more pieces of big furniture like a dresser for our room and second sofa for the living room.
I started setting up the nursery the last couple weeks– and if you want a sneak peek be sure to follow my insta stories.
But for now let’s share this Strawberry Brussels Sprouts Naan Flatbread.
