It's easy to toss frozen vegetables into a pasta, stir fry, or soup. Broc is E's favorite, so this meal put a smile on his face. Frozen produce is picked at the peak of ripeness and then quickly frozen to retain more nutrition. Many researchers have found them to have even more nutrients than their fresh friend. Usually fresh foods are picked before they are ripe so they taste fresh and yummy when they get in your hands, but the downside is they don't have as much time to develop desirable nutrients on the vine. Time saver! No chopping, pealing, or prep work required. Simply steam and eat. Dinner in a flash. Frozen vegetables make cheap eats. It's easier than ever to get your 5-a-day with frozen vegetables!

It’s Over!
Goodbye Bar Exam! We have made it through... it's been a tough couple of months with Eric studying 24/7. We don't get the official results until September 18th. (This is the room he took his exam in... #intimidating) So we took a little vacation. I met Eric in Tampa around dinnertime so we stopped at P.F. Changs; then headed over to the beach house in Indian Rocks. When we got to the beach house it was really hot because the AC was broken. We knew this going into the trip but figured it wouldn't be too bad with all the fans we had. So we dropped off our stuff and headed to the grocery store to stock the kitchen. We made sure to load up on waters. It was one HOT night without air flow. We had a fun morning grabbing donuts and coffee from Lighthouse and walking the beach. ... View Post
How to Make an Omelet
Omelets. Light and fluffy, oozing with cheese, and stuffed with veggies that have a tender crunch.They can be a little tricky to make. But I wanted to share with you my 10 tips to getting them to turn out.10 for Perfect OmeletA good non-stick pan is a must! I use this one. Butter the pan. Don't make the mistake I have by using cooking spray. The lecithin in the cooking spray ruins non-stick pans. *always use real products i.e. butter or oil if you want to keep your pans in shape.Whisk the eggs with a little milk before pouring them in the pan. Cook over medium-low heat. It may take a little longer, but it's what keeps the omelet fluffy.Release the sides to allow uncooked eggs to cook. See photo. Flip it. Carefully :)Add the cheese directly to the eggs, and allow to ... View Post
Crispy Tofu

Make it ahead by marinating and roasting. If you've tried tofu before and weren't quite the fan, give roasting a try. You'll get these for crispy cubes of delight. ... View Post
How I Meal Plan
Meal planning has been a essential key to our healthy eating success. If it weren't for planning my meals in advance, we would be ever so tempted to order take out cause we like to eat when we are hungry. It also helps us to save money, but that's for another blog post.1. I use Google calendar to schedule meals, which I share with Eric so he knows what's on tap for the night. (This calendar is also sinked to our phones). All meals are color categorized for easy viewing.2. I use the same calendar for daily tasks and meetings, so it is easy to plan the type of meal I need. For nights I'll be out at a meeting, I'll plan a crock pot meal or something I've already prepared so Eric can have dinner ready when he's hungry.3. Throughout the week, I'll get inspired with meal ideas and I'll go ... View Post

How long do you think it took me to cook this dinner? It looks pretty fancy doesn't it? 10 minutes. Mmmmm...roasted shrimp is a real treat.
