I’m crying. 😭 (1) Because of the amount of onions I had to chopped in this HEALTHY YOGURT AND ONION DIP! And (2) because it tastes so dang good! dEATS: • 2.5 cups minced onions, browned • 2 garlic Crush Cubes • 1 tsp Dale’s Seasoning • 1.5 cups plain Greek yogurt Directions:
  I’m also LOVING these Rubbermaid Brilliance Glass containers where I can mix AND store everything in one ☝🏼 container, so less mess & cleanup! These Rubbermaid Brilliance Glass containers are also — 100% airtight and leakproof, oven safe to 450*, freezer-safe, dishwasher-safe, AND BPA-free. 🙌🏼 (Thanks to Influenster for letting me try these containers complimentary!)  Lets be honest… sometimes when you “healthify” recipes the end product is kinda meh, but not this one! This tastes 💯% like the real deal French Onion Dip you would buy at the store.

Protein powder can be a great pantry-staple along with your canned goods, dried grains, and the like. Why are protein powders a good option to stock up on? For the same reason you make many other food choices in your life – convenience! Now, selecting an ideal protein powder can cause your head to spin if you’re unsure of what to look out for, but Naked Nutrition products make it super easy. They’re products are made with minimal ingredients (most contain 3 ingredients or less!) so YOU are more in control of what you want when using a Naked Nutrition supplement. For example, their vegan Pea Protein Powder has just ONE ingredient – yellow pea protein. That’s it! No added sugar or artificial sweeteners. Just simple, straightforward ingredients that you can use to make a more well-balanced meal or snack. (Remember, protein is not only an essential nutrient, it’s also a nutrient that can help us feel full and satisfied throughout our day.) Don’t know what to do with protein powder?

This week I made a dish inspired by my recent travels. My husband and I spent our 5th anniversary in Asheville, North Carolina in November and we visited a local farm-to-table restaurant, Haywood Common. Their menu is "seasonal", which means it changes often. Whenever I visit a new restaurant I try to order something that is (1) a little familiar (i.e. something I know I like), but (2) also brand new to me. Enter: Salmon and Farro Salad. I know salmon, I love salmon, and I will always eat salmon, but farro - what does that taste like!? I knew what farro was, but I had never eaten it. I decided this was the meal for me and oh man I am so glad I ordered it! The salmon was brought to our table on a bed of farro and the farro was mixed with a delicious concoction of goat cheese, microgreens, mushrooms, curried peanuts, and pickled raisins. The entire plate was drizzled in a creamy, dream-worthy chipotle and red pepper harissa and avocado sauce. I basically wanted to bathe in this sauce, it was THAT good. Since devouring this meal from Haywood Common, I have been thinking about how to recreate this yummy drool worthy farro ever since! Keep reading for a super simple farro-filled recipe that will make you a farro fan for life.  What is farro?Farro is an ancient whole-grain that dates back to ancient Rome. Farro is used often in many modern kitchens and is loved by many. On top of its delicious flavor and versatile character, this grain is packed with fiber and plant-based protein. It is very similar to barley, but has a nuttier, chewier texture when cooked. Farro is a great source of magnesium, iron and B vitamins. And is also a great heart-healthy choice as it is low in fat and cholesterol. Half a cup of farro provides about 7 grams of protein so it is a great choice for vegans and/or vegetarians! Farro is great because it requires no prep work! All you have to do is rinse it and stick it in a pot of boiling liquid. That’s it! (You could do this blindfolded - although I don’t recommend blindfolding yourself near a pot of hot water :P) Keep scrolling for my recipe inspired by my eats in Asheville! 3-Cheese Spinach + Mushroom Farro RecipeSERVINGS: 4-5 (this recipes makes ~4 cups) INGREDIENTS:
DIRECTIONS:
**NOTE: There is no such thing as too much cheese so... top with a little bit of extra cheese if you’re feeling adventurous!
