Life lately ☺️ In my last few weeks of pregnancy, just trying to soak up every moment of this wild beautiful life changing experience.

Lots of long walks with Ev and Woody. Breakfast dates and farmers market hauls. Rocking a sexy black catsuit for Halloween at 9 months pregnant because why not. And yes lots of naps too.

Best ever grain free CRISPY CHICKEN + SWEET POTATO BURRITOS 🌯

one of my all time fave EASY RECIPES: throw together some leftovers in a tortilla with salsa and toasted it in a pan 🙌🏻 I used leftover chicken breast, but rotisserie chicken would be perfect in these too. You could always skip the sweet potato for less carbs if that’s your thing, or do any leftover veggies you have and any salsa you want!

DA GOODS: took a leftover chicken breast I roasted with some red onions and chopped it up. Mixed in half a large mashed sweet potato, 1/2 cup salsa verde and 1/3 cup grass fed cheese, then folded in almond flour tortillas (made 4). Crisped up in a pan on each side until the filling was warm.

I served with salsa and a green salad, but guac or broccoli or any veggies you’d like would pair perfectly 👌🏻DEVOURED

Our lemon tree is going OFF, so it’s time for a fresh GRAIN FREE LEMON LOAF 🍋❤️ perfect refreshing decadent dessert! It’s like a dense lemon pound cake, but made with a whole lot less butter or sugar, grain free, and chock full of protein, fiber + healthy fats.

And the lemon icing paired with it is 💯 it soaks into the loaf, it’s gets all kind of moist and magical 😍 you could use any glaze/frosting recipe you want though!!.

NOTES: this isn’t a very sweet loaf if you skip the icing, so feel free to add a bit more maple syrup if you’re looking for dessert vibes. I haven’t tested any other flours, so google ratios for substitutes!! Y’all have said that coconut yogurts have worked in your remakes to keep it dairy free!.

GRAIN FREE LEMON LOAF
1/4 cup melted butter or coconut oil
1/3 cup plain Icelandic Skyr (or Greek yogurt)
3 eggs
1/3 cup + 2 tbs lemon juice
1 tbs lemon zest
1/3 cup + 2 tbs maple syrup or honey
1/2 cup almond milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup coconut flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
Pinch of salt
Lemon icing (optional!)
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1-2 tbs lemon juice
1-3 tbs almond milk (adjust for desired consistency)

DIRECTIONS
heat oven to 350. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper (mine was 9x5). Using a hand or stand mixer, mix together butter and yogurt. Add eggs, vanilla, lemons juice, zest, almond milk and maple syrup, and mix again until combined.
Next, add in dry ingredients.
Pour batter into lined pan. Bake for 45-60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean/with a few wet crumbs (don’t over bake!! or it’ll get dry). Every oven is different, so start checking when it smells lemony.
Let cool to room temp/warm and option to add lemon icing if you want. Definitely adds some nice sweetness.
Tastes WAY better second day!
Enjoy!!

DOUGHY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES 🍪 dense and doughy, just the right amount sweet👌🏻they taste like straight up cookie dough, but made with REAL AF ingredients. You should definitely make them 😜

Some Notes:
1️⃣ I don’t like using tahini. It just doesn’t work for baking. I love or brands.
2️⃣ You could also swap for any drippy nut butter, but you may want to reduce the flour slightly so they’re not dry.
3️⃣ And lastly UNDER BAKE them. No negotiating. Then let them cool for a good 15 minutes AT LEAST so they can set (ideally 1 hour

Doughy Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 egg
1/2 cup coconut Smartsugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup tahini
3/4 cup Bob's Red Mill] almond flour
1 tbs Bob's Red Mill] coconut flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Directions
Heat oven to 350. In a mixing bowl, add egg and coconut sugar. Using a hand mixer (or by hand with some elbow grease), cream together egg and sugar. Add tahini and vanilla extract and mix thoroughly. Add dry ingredients, and mix well. Fold in chocolate chips. Option to refrigerate dough for 30-60 minutes for extra doughiness.
Roll into balls. Place on lined baking sheet and flatten slightly. Bake for 9-11 minutes until just barely golden and middle is still a touch gooey. Let cool completely (ideally a few hours), then DEVOUR.

Veggie packed MAC N CHEESE 🧀 this is a 10 minute meal you need to try like right nowww.

It’s your favorite comfort food but with more protein, simpler ingredients, gluten free and grain free and packing some delicious nutritious veggies too

Here show I did it: boil some water and add your favorite boxed mac n cheese noodles, cook according to directions (I love the chickpea Mac n cheese cuz it has more protein and clean ingredients!)
Meanwhile, sauté up some veggies and protein of choice. I did broccoli, chopped tomatoes, super greens and diced turkey breast in olive oil with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Make your cheese sauce when the noodles are done (I always add a little extra milk and a tbs of grass fed butter to mine 😏) and stir in sautéed veggies and protein.
Last step: DEVOUR

3 ingredient BANANA OATMEAL PANCAKES 🥞 quick, easy, simple, perfect for kiddos, adults, and anyone who wants some breakfast fuel for their day!

All you need is a banana, 2 eggs, and some oatmeal! Feel free to add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg if you’re feeling *fancy*.

TIPS: I also like to add 2 scoops of Ancient Nutrition] multi collagen protein for an extra 18g of protein! (Code BEACHSIDE20 for 20% off) but it’s totally optional and no you don’t need to sub something in instead.

Banana Oatmeal Pancakes (makes 6 small pancakes)
1 spotty banana, mashed
2 eggs
1/2 cup oatmeal
Few shakes of cinnamon (optional)
1-2 scoops Ancient Nutrition] collagen (also optional)

Mix together pancake ingredients. Let sit for a few minutes to soften up the oatmeal. Then add oil or butter to a pan, and scoop batter onto pan. Cook 3-4 mins per side at medium heat, or until it’s golden and holds together enough to flip.

Topped with bananas, blueberries, and a big ole drizzle of maple almond butter.

Other toppings I love: Greek yogurt for more protein, chocolate chips, .haus granola butter, or just a little tab of grass fed butter

Sometimes simple does it best 🙌🏻 blackened salmon, sautéed veggies, white rice drizzled with coconut aminos. Plus it’s ready in 15 minutes, WINNING 🥇

Who wants a bite?!

Some easy swaps:
Swap white rice for brown rice if you want more fiber, or quinoa for more protein
Doing Whole30 or going low carb? Swap for cauliflower rice or do all veggies instead!

This is the seasoning combo I used for my salmon (eyeballed all the spices but it’s about this):
1 1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp dried thyme
Big pinch of salt
freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Blackened Salmon:
Pat salmon dry. Season generously with rub. Add avocado oil to medium hot pan. Sear for 3 mins, then flip, and sear 3-4 more minutes other side. I like my salmon medium rare, so if you like more cooked give it more time.

Veggies: add veggies to hot pan with 1/4 cup water to steam until just softened. Once water evaporates, add 1 tbs avocado oil, salt pepper garlic powder and coconut aminos and toss for 2-3 mins.

I served with white rice, but you can do quinoa, brown rice, cauliflower rice, or whatever you like!
