Health Nut Blueberry Pancakes

By Kristina LaRue, RDN 5 Comments

Calling all health junkies, these pancakes are for you! Not your mama's Saturday morning pancakes, these Health Nut Blueberry Pancakes are made with buckwheat flour, kefir and wild blueberries, and are sure to please even the pickiest palate. Gluten free. These Health Nut Blueberry Pancakes tho. They are so soft and so clean clean, a health freaks dream breakfast. I'm all about the kefir in these cakes because it keeps the pancakes moist and packs a protein punch. Buckwheat flour is gluten free and provides a good little fiber boost. But what I love most about buckwheat flour is the gorgeous brown glow it gives to these pancakes-- making them all health nutty and stuff. Pile these cakes high with wild blueberries, and almond butter, and almonds and maple syrup if you wish! Love that ... View Post

Strawberry Balsamic Grilled Chicken Salad

By Kristina LaRue, RDN 10 Comments

This Strawberry Balsamic Grilled Chicken Salad is light, crisp and perfect for summertime eating. The warm chicken and balsamic strawberries and onions add so much flavor to this salad. You're' going to love it! Salad salad salad. I could eat salad every day... especially for lunch. In fact, I've gone through salad streaks where I've done just that. There's something about a bowl full of veggies, fruits, lean proteins, and healthy fats that just makes me feel darn good with lots of energy. Love that balance. I'm a salad girl through and through. Not like a petite side salad type of gal, but more of a protein packed meal type of salad chick. Salads that are wholesome and warm and comforting all-in-one-bowl are the best type of salads. We're talking grilled chicken and sautéed onions and ... View Post

Asian Rice Noodle Bowl

By Kristina LaRue, RDN 2 Comments

I'm all about this Asian Rice Noodle Bowl. 1. because the favor is da bomb dot com and totally unique for us and 2. it's ready in like 5 minutes flat thanks to some great Trader Joe's finds. We love Asian food, but it's something we rarely make at home... take out baaabay is so good and oh so tempting on a night when you just don't feel like cooking. Our style = a bowl of Pad Thai or  a pile of Mongolian teriyaki grilled chicken, veggies, and rice with yumyum sauce... <<gotta have the sauce>>  Sushi roll + eel sauce and spicy mayo... check. Done and done. But when you have a craving for Asian food, TJ's has you covered... You can find similar items at other grocery stores, but I know you can get them conveniently at Trader Joe's. TJ's is all about convenience and their ... View Post

Cilantro Lime Brown Rice

By Kristina LaRue, RDN 4 Comments

Cilantro Lime Brown Rice, Chipotle-style. OMG...This rice is the best!! I've made it 3 times in a week already!  Hey friends! I'm happy you all enjoyed the Vegetarian Sofritas yesterday. Sorry for the delay in getting this Cilantro Lime Brown Rice up sooner. I know, you waited so patiently. My plan was to get it posted and scheduled last night but I started attacking my email inbox! AHHH, and then before I knew it, it was midnight and Parker woke up needing to be nursed. We had a big day today. Parker and I met up with some girlfriends for a baby bootcamp by the lake. The babies played together while we did a little circuit workout. It was really good to get outside this morning and get some girl time while the babies entertained each other and our sweat on at the same time. ... View Post
