High Protein Breakfast Bake (taste like cake).

- 8X8 pan will about 1.5 cups old fashioned oats
- Mixed in 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
- Mixed 3 eggs with about 2 cups of almond milk until smooth and poured over the oats (add more milk if needed, it should be enough to fully cover the oats)
- Mix in berries

Bake at 350 degrees until edges are browned and middle is fully cooked

Cut the oatmeal bake into 4 squares…each has about 25-30g of protein

Easy dinner recipes for busy weeknights.

- Grilled chicken (I had meal prepped before but you can buy pre cooked or use rotisserie
- Roasted broccoli
- Red lentil pasta

Mix everything together and top with a balsamic dressing (or pesto works too!)

I make my own balsamic with fresh garlic and crushed red pepper 👌🏻

3 Things I do on Sundays that make my Monday easier.

- Breakfast is always prepped to help get the week started on the right foot

-Monday dinner is made. It makes the start of the week a little less stressful and there’s no guessing games

-Kids lunches are made and snacks are packed. If I had enough time to prep more grown up lunches are made too

Every weekend is a little different and schedules always change but for the most part those little things help settle the Sunday Scaries and keep Mondays as stress free as possible.

Pancakes are a breakfast classic but they are also highly processed. Smothered in butter and syrup doesn’t make for a great choice to start the day.

Here are 3 things I do to level up pancakes to help keep me on track and start the kids off right in the morning.

✔️ I buy a plant based protein pancake mix
✔️ I add in a cup of old fashioned oats
✔️ I add in 1/4 cup ground flaxseed

This helps to increase protein and fiber. I will sometimes add in berries.

The kids still like organic maple syrup— I choose a local honey infused with cinnamon, black pepper, and tumeric.

Sunday Meal Prep— 3 hours here’s what I got 👇🏼

- 3 weeknight family dinners
- 3 mornings of kids breakfasts
- 3 mornings of grown up breakfasts
- 3 workweek lunches
- 2 school day lunches

Some of my go-to things to prep during busy weeks.

-Casseroles or one pan meals. Easy to load in veggies and easy for the whole family to enjoy

-Taco bowls— big fan 🎉— easy to prep and everyone can make their own and VERY EASY to make the same proteins but switch up what you’re making, burritos, nachos, bowls, tacos 🌮

- Sheet pan roasted veggies 🥦 these are great to make and add into any meal to get goose veggies in OR start your day ahead of the game. I’ve been adding my veggies to my eggs in the morning 🍳

🌟 Meal Prepping for Kids = Happy, Healthy Families!

As a busy parent, I know how challenging it can be to keep up with healthy meals and snacks for the kids, especially during the school week. But meal prepping in advance has been a total game changer for us! 💪🏼

🥗 Homemade, Healthy Meals & Snacks = Better Choices 🥗
Making the time to prep meals ahead of time means I’m able to offer my kids nutrient-packed options that fuel their energy and keep them focused throughout the day. From homemade granola bars to colorful veggie-packed wraps, I love knowing exactly what’s going into their bodies!

👩‍🍳 Teaching Kids About Healthy Eating 👨‍🍳
One of the biggest benefits of meal prepping is that it’s not just about food—it’s a chance to educate my kids about nutrition. I involve them in the process so they can learn about what goes into their meals and why it matters. It’s all about building healthy habits early on, especially for growing athletes!

🏃‍♀️ Fueling Youth Athletes for Success 🏃‍♂️
Healthy meals and snacks are SO important for active kids, especially youth athletes who need the right fuel for their workouts and sports. That’s why I make it a priority to prep ahead—so my kids have the best possible nutrition to keep them at their best. 🌱

✨ Want to Learn More? ✨
This New Year, I’m excited to help more families make healthy choices for their kids—especially young athletes! If you’re looking for tips and recipes to fuel your little champions, drop a “YES” in the comments or DM me for more info! Let’s make 2026 the year of healthy eating for all our kids.

Meet the queen of colorful carbs: the purple sweet potato 👑💜
Higher in antioxidants than both regular potatoes and orange sweet potatoes, fiber-rich, gut-loving, and insanely delicious.
A little sweeter, a little earthier, and A LOT prettier.
Eat the rainbow — your body will thank you ✨
