Finding Joy in Healthy Living
Happy Holidays, everyone! It’s officially countdown time to Christmas (one week!), and holiday baking is in full swing at our house. One of the things I’ve been mixing up a lot the last month is the recipe for these AMAZING Sweet and Salty Roasted Nuts! Oh my, you guys… Talk about melt-in-your-mouth crispy yumminess. This. is. it….
We got hit hard by the polar vortex this week (hello, -20º F), which left us huddled inside by the fire. It also left me craving some of my favorite comfort foods… And this Roasted Veggie and Black Bean Quinoa Bowl lands solidly on that list!
Packed with protein, fiber, and hearty veggies, this is a super satisfying meal option for this winter (or spring, or summer… or anytime!). Plus, it is SO easy to make. All the ingredients can be prepped ahead of time and reheated for a quick and healthy meal later in the week. (I have included prep time for the roasted veggies and quinoa in the recipe, but if you make your ingredients ahead of time, you can have a full meal ready to eat in about 5 minutes.)…
Happy Thursday, everyone! It’s been exceptionally cold in our part of the country the last several days (cold equals -20ºF with windchill…!), so I’ve been making a lot of comfort foods. Just because it’s cold outside, doesn’t mean we can’t be extra warm and cozy inside, right? 🙂
One dish I’ve been making a LOT this winter are these YUMMY quick and easy roasted veggies! They are so flavorful, and pair perfectly with almost any meal. Plus, it’s a good feeling knowing that we are stocking up on healthy foods in the meantime….
