Okay you guys, this is a SNEAK PEAK at my meals on my new Lovebylynn Fitness website coming 2020!  I’ve literally had these for over a year now and finally getting around to launching this baby SOON.  Since getting pregnant and just not feeling very well, then becoming a mom of two, it was put on the back burner.  So I’ve started working on it again and going to double down to get it out to you SOON in 2020!    So heres some yummy dinner or lunch recipes that I die over and always make.  So easy to throw together, healthy, leaves you feeling satisfied and the whole family will love them.  At least mine does.

TUNA VEGGIES BOWL

  • 1 can albacore tuna (in water) costco is my favorite place to get tuna
  • 1-2 tablespoons veganese
  • 1/2 cup Better Body Foods quinoa 
  • 1/2 bell pepper 
  • 3 celery stalks
  • Couple slices jalapeno (if you like spicy)

DIRECTIONS: Cook quinoa according to package, I throw mine in Aroma Pot with 1 cup quinoa and 2 cups water and hit the quinoa button, and let it do its magic.  Also HOT TIP, I meal prep mine for the entire week, that way I can throw it in the microwave to heat it up, or not.  Its good either way.   The tuna cools it down anyways.

Then add your tuna and veganese in a bowl and mix it up! 

Cut up your bell pepper and celery. Then jalapeno if you like spicy.

Add everything to bowl and waaalaaaa!  Done. 

I preferably like this one for a quick easy lunch.

TOMATO BASIL ZOODLES

DIRECTIONS: spiralize your zuchinis into noodles.   Set aside.

Then cook your ground turkey in a pan on medium heat.  

Add your oil to another pan and cook your noodles.  About 10-15 minutes.  I like mine a little crunchy and not too soft.  Too soft makes it soggy.

Then heat up your sauce in a pan for about 5 mins.

Add your noodles to a large bowl, turkey, sauce and all seasoning and waaallaaa! Done.

DIJON MUSTARD CHICKEN WITH SWEET POTATO FRIES

makes for 1

  • 1/2 tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • 4 oz organic chicken breast or thigh
  • 1 tsp garlic
  • 1/2 tbsp Avocado oil 
  • 1/2 squeeze lemon
  • Green beans
  • 1 sweet potato
  • pink salt 

DIRECTIONS:  Preheat oven to 375.  add chicken, dijon, 1/2 tsp oil 1/2 squeeze lemon and garlic to a bowl or bag.  Spread all over chicken and leave in fridge for at least 20 minutes.

HOT TIP: prep more chicken for the week, I like to make at least 4.

Peel and cut your sweet potato into fry shapes.  Then place in a bag and put 1/2 tsp oil on them and some pink salt and shake around covering the whole potato.  Then place in the oven for 30 minutes.

If this is a thigh cook for 20 minutes, if its a breast you might need longer, just keep checking the middle.  Place in oven.

Then cook your green beans on the tray on top and water on bottom and steam it in the Aroma Pot for 15 minutes.  

Assemble everything on a plate and wallaaaaa, done!   I like to deep my chicken in more dijon mustard too.  

HOT TIP: I’ve been liking chicken thighs better lately and not so much the breast.  They have more fat so they’re more flavorful.

HOLIDAY MOCKTAIL RECIPE FOR MY PREGGO MAMAS

Alright my pregnant mamas who loved to have a cocktail before they got pregnant, or for those who don’t drink and want a little something to sip on!  This is for you!  And for those who want a little alcohol in it, feel free to add some titos vodka in my friends.  Check out my COSMIC CRANBERRY HOLIDAY COCKTAIL from last year too.  That can be a mocktail, just remove the alcohol. 

Honestly, I’m not a big drinker, but I love to have a drink socially.  Like going out on a date with TJ, or out with friends, or even just sitting my our fire together after Oaks goes to bed.  It’s nice to have a glass and unwind.  So I created this little mocktail, super easy btw and its been nice to sip on while I’m pregnant.  

WHAT YOU NEED

  • Club soda 
  • 1/2 squeeze lemon
  • 1/2 packet TRUE LEMON (any flavor is good, but I love raspberry lemonade)
  • Ice 
  • Wine glass

DIRECTIONS

  • Add ice to the wine glass.  Then pour in the club soda filling it as much as you want to drink.  Then mix in 1/2 packet of true lemon.  Squeeze in some lemon to your preference and then stir and enjoy!

I’ve been giving Oaks true lemon as his juice for over a year now.  I’m not a fan of giving him juice with all the sugar in it.  So this has been a really nice replacement and he loves it, plus it doesn’t have any aspartame in it like the crystal light packets do.   So he actually will ask for “juice in there”  in his sippy and thats what he’s talking about.. haha its really funny the way he says it.  “momma more juice in narr”  I’ll do honest apple juice while we’re out at a restaurant, but thats a rare occasion.  I don’t keep any of it in my house.  Thats not to say I don’t give him treats, but I just don’t keep them in the house.  I notice a big difference when he’s eating to much sugar.  Anyways, thats a different blog topic ha.

Let me know if you guys like this, and share your mocktail recipes below!
