When I work out, I get hungry. I always need a snack either before I work out, or right after. I am always ravished with hunger. So I have to keep something in my bag that is quick, convenient and healthy. I don’t want to ruin all the work I have done working out with a un-healthy snack.

Zone Perfect has some fabulous new nutrition bars that are made with all natural ingredients and so tasty! There are so many fantastic flavors to choose from.

Chicken Tender Sandwich with Jalapeño Lime Coleslaw #meatless

Have you been looking to add to your recipe box for meatless Monday? Or just new ideas for your vegan diet? Gardein is your new best friend. There are so many different recipes you can create with all the wonderful options from Gardein.

I love sandwiches. I think they may be my favorite food. However, since I have become pregnant, I am not supposed to eat cold deli meats or cold chicken sandwiches because of possible bacteria growth. With these vegan chicken tenders, I don’t have to worry at all about any of that because it is meat-free.

I love a little kick to my sandwiches. I also love the cool crunch of coleslaw. I decided to make one of my faves. Jalapeño lime coleslaw for this sandwich. Fresh french roll and tangy swiss cheese. Yum! I think this will definitely be one of my pregnancy must have cravings!

Busy Girl’s Cheesy Penne alla “Not-ka”

September 7, 2015 By Erin Kennedy Leave a Comment

penne

I love pasta, and I love when I can have a homemade meal that can be on the table in about 15 minutes. I love to cook, but now that I am pregnant, I hate standing in the kitchen for hours making a tasty meal. So this recipe is one of my favorites (pregnant or not) and takes no time at all.

For those people that need a quick meal on the table, that you and your family will devour, this is the recipe for you. I love Penne alla Vodka. It is one of my fave’s to order at an Italian restaurant. Since I have been pregnant, I have really been craving this dish, but many nights, I am too tired to go out, and I don’t want to use vodka. I know that the alcohol burns off, but I can’t stand the smell of hard liquor since I have been pregnant. So I set out to put together a recipe that will cure my craving, and simple to put together. This recipe, I promise you, will not disappoint.

The main part of this simple recipe is finding a good jar of marinara sauce. I have used other brands before, but this is the first time I used Mezzetta Napa Valley marinara sauce. This sauce is the most fresh tasting I have ever had. The ingredients are pure without any added preservatives or high fructose corn syrup.

And the fact that these are tasty, doesn’t hurt either.
