COCONUT CURRY QUINOA SOUP WITH CHICKEN I’ve bee

COCONUT CURRY QUINOA SOUP WITH CHICKEN

I’ve been working on my soup game. I really do love a coconut milk soup and this one has the option of no chicken or the vegetarian version with just quinoa, either way you will enjoy. Recipe compliments of @onecleverchef I did add some lemongrass, the thai chef at my husband’s store says is the magic ingredient to all Thai dishes ❤️

Recipe
2 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp sambal oelek (I ran out and it still turned out great!)
4 garlic cloves finely chopped
2 tbsp red curry paste
1 cup cooked chicken shredded (omit if desired)
2 tbsp maple syrup
2 cans full-fat coconut milk
3 cups chicken broth
3/4 cup quinoa uncooked
juice of 1 lime
8 leaves Thai basil torn
2 tbsp fish sauce
1 cup mushroom sliced
1 red bell pepper sliced
1 large carrot shredded
1 large onion sliced
1 stalk lemon grass (outer layer peeled, inside bruised and finely chopped

Toppings
3 green onion stalks chopped
A few Thai basil leaves chopped

How to👇
1️⃣Melt 2 tbsp coconut oil over medium heat in a large saucepan. Sauté onion, garlic, red curry paste and sambal oelek together for 5 minutes.
2️⃣Add chicken broth and quinoa, bring to a boil.
3️⃣Add the rest of the ingredients, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, or until bell pepper is soft.

So simple right? What is your go to soup right now?

Do you microgreen?

🌱 Microgreens are vegetables harvested young and contain 40 x the nutrient content of their adult counterparts.

🌱 They can be used as a nutritional supplement, flavour enhancement, or a beautiful garnish 💚

🌱 They come in a wide range of colours, textures and tastes. Their flavour can vary from neutral to spicy, sour or even bitter, depending on the type of microgreen you are eating.

🌱 My favourite is a good blend of them all!

I love having them in my fridge for a salad or a green smoothie, especially this time of year when we are all trying to stay our healthiest 💚

I recently tried a new company who delivers fresh microgreens right to your door, here in Toronto. @eatgreenish Is powered by another amazing woman food entrepreneur. Honestly, her microgreens lasted for weeks in my fridge, they were so fresh 🌱

Do you eat microgreens?

Have you ever tried pink pitaya powder a.k.a freez

Have you ever tried pink pitaya powder a.k.a freeze dried red dragon fruit powder?

One of my girls does not do well with food colouring, so using natural powders has been my solution. My favourite is this bright pink, full of goodness, pink pitaya powder.

It is high in fibre and rich in vitamins and minerals, particularly vitamin A! This improves skin, vision, immune function and digestive enzymes. Also, as you know from some of my other posts, chia seeds have many health benefits and are an excellent ingredient for any meal!

PINK CHIA SEED PUDDING

Here’s what you’ll need
- 1/3 cup chia seeds
- 1.5 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon dragon fruit powder

Instructions
1️⃣Mix chia seeds, almond milk and maple syrup. Stir well and put in the fridge to soak overnight (or at least 3 hrs).
2️⃣When chia seeds absorbed the liquid, and you see a pudding consistency, separate the mixture into 3 separate parts. Add a bit of dragon fruit to the first pudding mixture until the desired darker colour. Add a little less to the second portion and even less to the last part. *You can always add more almond milk if the mixture is too thick. You can also add more or less maple syrup to your preferred sweetness level.
3️⃣Layer into a glass & enjoy!

Everything is more fun to eat when it’s pretty 💖

There are two pink pitaya powders that I’ve used. Check them out @suncorefoods and @rawnice

FROZEN NUT BUTTER AND JELLY BITES

These little bite-sized snacks are simple, easy and widely loved by just about everyone! When you freeze a banana, it becomes so much more indulgent with flavour, making it the perfect snack for anyone with a sweet tooth! AND it only takes 5 minutes to prepare!!

Here’s the recipe 👇
Sliced banana
Your favourite type of nut butter
Your choice of jelly (my favourites strawberry)
Freeze for 2 hours

Once frozen, you can store in a freezable container to enjoy whenever you like!

Good morning Sunday ❤️ I thought I’d share a

Good morning Sunday ❤️ I thought I’d share a few things about myself given this community has brought me so much joy and I can keep alot of myself behind the scenes! Here are some truths.

1. First off people should know this post is super hard for me to write. I’m generally very private and frankly everything that pops in my head to write I say to myself, “well, no one wants to know about that”.

2. I’m a small town girl in a big city. I’m originally from Northern Ontario and I love the community I grew up in but you probably will never get me to leave the city now ❤️

3. I quit my career 4 years ago because I was burnt out and I wanted to spend more time with my girls. I have twins that are 11 and my youngest is 10. I second guessed the change for atleast two years, it was hard and now I know it was the right thing.

4 Tennis 🎾 is the true love of my 40’s. I play 8-10 hours a week and it has given me so much more than just hitting a ball.

5. I am a social introvert. I love people, love entertaining and then everyone needs to go home so I can be alone. Lol

🌈 The base of my entire philosophy on life is “BE KIND”. 🌈
