#onepot veggie & pesto #macncheese
O M G we almost ate the entire pot at dinner. So #yummy

Here’s how:

One Pot Veggie & Pesto Mac n cheese

* 1 (500g) package of small shaped pasta - I used fiorfiore lumaconi
* 2 cups chopped broccoli (raw or frozen)
* 4 1/2 cups water
* 1 1/4 cups milk (2% or whole)
* 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
* 2 cups shredded marble or cheddar cheese
* 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano- Regianno cheese
* 1 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
* 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
* 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
* 2 tablespoons salted butter
* 2 heaping tablespoons tomato pesto
* 1 large handful of baby spinach
* Sea salt and black pepper to taste

In a large pot, bring 4 1/2 cups of water to a boil over high heat with 1 heaping teaspoon of sea salt. Add in the pasta, and broccoli.

Cook & stir over medium high heat for 8 -9 minutes. The water will start to absorb into the pasta. Stir in the milk, yogurt and continue cooking until the pasta is al dente, about 5 minutes.

Add the two cheeses, garlic powder, nutmeg, paprika, cayenne, salted butter, tomato pesto, spinach and stir until creamy. Remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Feel free to add a bit more milk if the sauce starts to thicken too much. Best if served from stovetop to table asap. Enjoy!

A healthy snack that I could literally eat all day. #GLUTENFREE #DAIRYFREE AND SUPER MOIST Sweet Potato Bars for the yum factor.

Here’s how:

2 1/4 cups cooked & mashed sweet potatoes (about 2 large potatoes)
3/4 cup creamy cashew or almond nut butter 3 tbsp pure maple syrup 1/3 cup almond flour 2 large eggs (sub in flax eggs for vegan) 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp real vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Toppings: 1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup chopped walnuts  1/4 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips

First, preheat oven to 350 F  Place all ingredients (except your toppings) in food processor or blender. Blend on high for 15 to 20 seconds or until smooth and creamy.
Line an 8 inch by 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
Spread batter into lined pan. Sprinkle with pecans, walnuts and chocolate chips.  Bake for 27 - 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. I baked mine for almost 38 minutes because my ovens are stupid.  
Once baked, remove from oven, cool for 15 minutes then place the pan into the fridge for 2 hours until fully cooled. Slice and serve. These are super moist and gooey.

Here’s the recipe for 8
3 cups self rising flour
2 cups plain Greek yogurt

Egg wash - 1 egg beaten with one tablespoon milk
Preheat oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper

Mix together the flour and yogurt. Turn dough out onto a board. Knead for a about 2 minutes. Divide dough half. Then divide into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 5-6 long log and shape into a bagel - making sure to pinch the ends together. Brush with a egg wash, sprinkle with desired toppings and bake for 25 minutes. Enjoy!

Steve wanted a #chocolate cream #pie so I made him

Steve wanted a #chocolate cream #pie so I made him one.

Recipe:

1 x 9 inch deep dish pie crust blind baked and cooled
For the chocolate pudding:
1/2 cup (95g) granulated sugar
4 tablespoons (31g) all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon (7g) cocoa powder
3 1/2 cups (828ml) whole milk
12 ounces (340 g) dark chocolate, chopped
1 tablespoon (14g) butter
1 teaspoon (5g) pure vanilla extract
For the whipped cream
1 1/2 cups (355ml) heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup (98g) powdered sugar

Instructions
1. Prepare your favorite 9-inch pie crust and blind bake it. Cool completely.
For the chocolate pudding:
In a medium saucepan, combine the flour, sugar, and cocoa powder and whisk together. Heat for 2 minutes on medium to medium-low heat, whisking constantly.

Next, slowly whisk in the milk,

Continue whisking the pudding until it starts to thicken and lightly bubble, this will take about 10-15 minutes.
Gradually add the chopped chocolate and continue whisking until the chocolate is completely incorporated. Cook for 2-3 minutes, ensuring the pudding is bubbling and thick, stirring occasionally.
Remove the pudding from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract and butter and whisk until the butter is melted nicely into the mixture. Strain the pudding through a fine sieve once.
Pour the pudding into a heat proof bowl and cover with clear plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the pudding and poke a few holes in the plastic wrap with a toothpick.
Allow the pudding to cool on the counter for at least 1 hour before pouring into the cooled pie crust.
Once you pour the pudding into your crust place into fridge for 2-4 hours until the pudding has set completely.

When ready to serve, prepare the whipped cream.

Place the mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes to chill. Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and use an electric mixer to beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks start to form. Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating on high speed until stiff peaks form. Top the pie and garnish as desired.

Feel free to add a bit more milk if the sauce starts to thicken too much. Best if served from stovetop to table asap. Enjoy!

A healthy snack that I could literally eat all day

A healthy snack that I could literally eat all day. #GLUTENFREE #DAIRYFREE AND SUPER MOIST Sweet Potato Bars for the yum factor.

Here’s how:

2 1/4 cups cooked & mashed sweet potatoes (about 2 large potatoes)
3/4 cup creamy cashew or almond nut butter 3 tbsp pure maple syrup 1/3 cup almond flour 2 large eggs (sub in flax eggs for vegan) 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp real vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Toppings: 1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup chopped walnuts  1/4 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips

First, preheat oven to 350 F  Place all ingredients (except your toppings) in food processor or blender. Blend on high for 15 to 20 seconds or until smooth and creamy.
Line an 8 inch by 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
Spread batter into lined pan. Sprinkle with pecans, walnuts and chocolate chips.  Bake for 27 - 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. I baked mine for almost 38 minutes because my ovens are stupid.  
Once baked, remove from oven, cool for 15 minutes then place the pan into the fridge for 2 hours until fully cooled. Slice and serve. These are super moist and gooey.

2 ingredient bagels are my favourite to make and have in hand for a high protein low fat treat. They are super easy to make and I doubled the recipe because I wanted 8 bagels instead of 4 !

Here’s the recipe for 8
3 cups self rising flour
2 cups plain Greek yogurt

Egg wash - 1 egg beaten with one tablespoon milk
Preheat oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper

Mix together the flour and yogurt. Turn dough out onto a board. Knead for a about 2 minutes. Divide dough half. Then divide into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 5-6 long log and shape into a bagel - making sure to pinch the ends together. Brush with a egg wash, sprinkle with desired toppings and bake for 25 minutes. Enjoy!

Steve wanted a #chocolate cream #pie so I made him

Steve wanted a #chocolate cream #pie so I made him one.

Recipe:

1 x 9 inch deep dish pie crust blind baked and cooled
For the chocolate pudding:
1/2 cup (95g) granulated sugar
4 tablespoons (31g) all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon (7g) cocoa powder
3 1/2 cups (828ml) whole milk
12 ounces (340 g) dark chocolate, chopped
1 tablespoon (14g) butter
1 teaspoon (5g) pure vanilla extract
For the whipped cream
1 1/2 cups (355ml) heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup (98g) powdered sugar

Instructions
1. Prepare your favorite 9-inch pie crust and blind bake it. Cool completely.
For the chocolate pudding:
In a medium saucepan, combine the flour, sugar, and cocoa powder and whisk together. Heat for 2 minutes on medium to medium-low heat, whisking constantly.

Next, slowly whisk in the milk,

Continue whisking the pudding until it starts to thicken and lightly bubble, this will take about 10-15 minutes.
Gradually add the chopped chocolate and continue whisking until the chocolate is completely incorporated. Cook for 2-3 minutes, ensuring the pudding is bubbling and thick, stirring occasionally.
Remove the pudding from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract and butter and whisk until the butter is melted nicely into the mixture. Strain the pudding through a fine sieve once.
Pour the pudding into a heat proof bowl and cover with clear plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the pudding and poke a few holes in the plastic wrap with a toothpick.
Allow the pudding to cool on the counter for at least 1 hour before pouring into the cooled pie crust.
Once you pour the pudding into your crust place into fridge for 2-4 hours until the pudding has set completely.

When ready to serve, prepare the whipped cream.

Place the mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes to chill. Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and use an electric mixer to beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks start to form. Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating on high speed until stiff peaks form. Top the pie and garnish as desired.
