Over the next few weeks I am going to take you on a personal growth and self-development journey…
My mission with this series is to get you to that place that you truly want to be at in life, both personally and professionally.
Cooking has always been a passion of mine, so it only made sense to include some of my favorite recipes in this series for you. You can find more on my Instagram and other social channels here.
As I am also a big believer in doing things that will save you time, money, and energy. Meal prepping is where it is at!
SAVORY SIDES
SALSA FOR DAYS
2 Tomatoes
1 Onion
2 tbsp minced Garlic
1 tbsp Olive Oil
½ bunch Cilantro
2 Limes for juice
Pink Himalayan Salt
Black Pepper
Jalapeno Peppers for added heat
Blend all diced vegetables, herbs, and seasoning in a small blender,
chill for 30 minutes and serve. Batch stays fresh for about a week.
Additional flavor options would be mango, peach, pineapple, black
beans, and corn.
GARLIC AND HERB HUMMUS
1 can Garbanzo Beans
2 tbsp Olive Oil
4 tbsp minced Garlic
¼ cup Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Tahini
Sumac
Dill
Pink Himalayan Salt
Black Pepper
Wash beans and drain out liquid. Place all ingredients and seasonings
in the blender on medium. Use a spatula to clean sides in between blends.
Replacing garbanzo beans with butter beans will create a creamier texture.
If you do not have Tahini, you can use almond butter instead.
Additional flavor options would be basil and pesto, everything bagel seeds, roasted red pepper, and jalapeno lime.
SWEET AND SPICY BRUSSELS SPROUTS
1 bag of fresh, not frozen Brussels Sprouts
Coat with Olive Oil
Pink Himalayan Salt
Red Pepper
Oregano
¼ cup Minced Garlic
1-2 tbsp Honey
Drizzle Balsamic Glaze
In a large bowl, add all ingredients together and layer over tinfoil
covered cookie sheet. You can pan sear, but the oven is best. I usually
just cut brussels sprouts in half.
Cook for 25 minutes on 425. Stir halfway through cooking time. I like
to broil for a few minutes to give a good crisp around the sprouts.
Additional flavor options would be sesame peanut and garlic parmesan.
SWEET POTATO FRIES
1 Sweet Potato
Olive Oil
Cinnamon
Red Pepper
Pink Himalayan Salt
Oregano
One potato makes 3-4 side portions. Cut up potato in strips, rounds,
or squares. Place in large bowl and coat with olive oil and seasonings.
I place in a plastic bag and leave in the fridge for a few hours or for a
full day to marinate.
Place on olive oil sprayed tinfoil cookie sheet and cook for 25 minutes
on 425. You can also cook on medium/high in cast iron skillet for additional charcoal flavor.
Additional flavor options would be using coconut oil for a sweeter
taste and more onion, rosemary, and garlic for savory.
