Fall 2025, as the seasons begin to change , the focus is on “ enjoying the beautiful colors” with our food as well as in nature .

Roasting large trays of veggies allows your busy workdays /school days to be a bit easier.
My favorite fall vegetables are butternut squash, beets, fennel & Brussels sprouts… the seasonings can be played with but my top choices are Tumeric, black pepper, sea salt ,cinnamon and something with a little kick if you like.

The bruschetta bread/toast are delicious & also easy quick fix , goes well with a delicious soup or salad.

Picture/video following…
On a roasting tray combine garlic, thinly slides or grates zucchini, sweet tomatoes ,fresh basil , oregano, olive oil sea salt,pepper, red pepper flakes and a little Parmesan
Roast at 400 degrees for about 20 min or until your garlic softens
Stir and add more fresh herbs
Cut your choice of bread ( fresh baguette works for appetizers) drizzle with EVOO crisp in oven 5 min or so top with Bruschetta and extra yummy add a little burratta

I’ve been prepping these delicious smoothies for a month on a regular basis.. using frozen organic berries, ginger,frozen spinach, lemon and organic celery along with adding chia, h**p seed, sunflower seeds and my favorite protein UMP
Sometimes I’ll add kiwi and dates if I don’t have berries & for liquid I use Califia coconut milk or unsweetened almond milk
You’ll get 4 servings
317 cal 20 G protein and 11.6g fiber per serving

While adjusting to the warmer temperatures, my time in the kitchen lightens up and I get excited to try new recipes .. some , using a recipe I find and tweaking to my liking , most just me playing in the kitchen.

Riced cauliflower can be very bland and needs alot of seasoning to make it more enjoyable for many..
it can offer a low carb high fiber alternative to dishes you’d normally use rice , potatoes or pasta.

I also prefer it over grains period!
You can chop up a head of cauliflower in your food processor or buy it frozen . I stock up on frozen so it’s available when I need it.
With the calories being so low ,20 per serving , you can eat more volume and still stay within your macros/ calories

I saute sweet onion , garlic in olive oil with sea salt , pepper, tumeric and hot pepper flakes, after about 8 min add frozen cauliflower, 1tsp @ better than bouillon “ veggie and a few T of water
Cook until cauliflower is done, remove to serving dish and add your shrimp or other protein to same pan with fresh garlic ,T Kerry gold butter and 1tsp chili lime seasoning. The shrimp cooks fast
Add to your cauliflower
* I always have roasted veggies and arugula in my refrigerator so I simply added leftover veggies to the pan to heat up and combined everything onto a salad.
Delicious, easy & good for you🤗

Today was a cooking day.. the fall temps bring soups to the forefront, and healthy high fiber ( usually GF) muffins & cookies .. pumpkin being the focus for baked goods.. I love adding pumpkin to my high fiber, protein pancakes, I make a yummy pumpkin 🎃 nana bar with cacao nibs and today I created a muffin using coconut cream and pumpkin for a client to try as she’s allergic to bananas & almonds…

Making my one pan grass fed beef & beans dish brought me back to my first grandson, when he was a baby we’d spend every Tuesday together, all day playing hard, eating and napping together 🥰 this was one of his favorite meals Nana made for him, I now add jalapeños.. it’s a great protein & fiber rich meal topped with avocado ( healthy fat)

I also am excited to use my skeleton baking pan to create bite size healthy treats .. these little skeletons are sweetened with prunes and 2 mini chocolate chips , high fiber, & egg free
The kids love them!

Potato spinach and chicken sausage soup is a winner!
