Are you still in New Year, New You mode? Or is it fading? I believe in refresh and restarts but I donβt believe in crash dieting. I donβt think itβs good for your body or your mind. Tons of people get so restrictive in hopes of losing weight β then what? Whatβs going to happen when you go back to eating burgers and fries? I genuinely believe you need to take a good look at your health, what youβre putting in your body and where you want to be. Itβs truly, truly a lifestyle. That doesnβt mean you need to cut out all of the things that bring you joy in life. You simply ADD in more good things.

One of my goals on here is to create recipes that are good for you and that taste good and fill you up! Thereβs such a stigma around βhealthyβ food and how that only includes plan lettuce salads *eye roll*. Iβve really been into nourish bowls lately, this Cuban one is pretty delish if youβre new here.

Iβve also really been into Mediterranean flavors which I feel like, is sort of unlike me but Iβm rollinβ with it. I made these Greek Nourish Bowls full of protein, fresh vegetables and carbs for a filling lunch or dinner. One of my favorite ingredients in here are the Lupini Beans. If you donβt know what these are β theyβre these fairly big beans that come from Italy (read about Kevin and Iβs laughable experience with them here).

Theyβre one of the highest plant based proteins out there and so tasty! The fresh Greek salad adds taste and texture while the quinoa adds good carbs and more protein along with the Greek dressing marinated chicken. Sounds like a pretty banginβ lunch or dinner if you ask me!
