Fiber Rice + Chicken Sausage + Cheesey Red Cabbage

Fiber Rice Recipe:
- Combine 1 cup white rice + 1/2 cup quinoa + 1/2 cup dried lentils and rinse well. Cook as you normally would 2 cups rice (optional to use bone broth/stock in place of water for extra protein and flavor)
- FYI rice freezes well! Freeze in one-cup silicone molds to make this meal even easier for you to throw together next time.

Chicken Sausage
- Chop and sauté until golden brown on both sides

Goat Cheese Cabbage Recipe:
- Sauté roughly chopped cabbage in pot on medium/high heat for a few minutes. Then add a 1/3 cup of white vinegar and 1/3 cup of water, turn down the heat to low and cover for a few minutes. Once the cabbage is at a consistency/firmness of your liking, uncover, turn up the heat, and let the rest of the water/vinegar dissolve. Add a few tbsp of plain goat cheese and mix into the cabbage.

This combo made for a super tasty, nutritious, and high fiber meal!

Genius idea from

1. Combine 1 cup of white rice + 1/2 cup quinoa + 1/2 cup dried lentils and rinse well.
2. Cook as you normally would 2 cups rice (Optional to use bone broth/stock in place of water for extra protein and flavor)
3. You're left with a tasty high fiber/protein rice!

FYI rice freezes very well! Freeze in one-cup silicone molds to make your life easier. Next time you're in need of a serving of carbs, defrost what you need in the fridge overnight and then tomorrow, you're ready to go. The Hleap Nutrition moto is to work smarter, not harder. This is one of our favorite ways to do just that!

Tempeh, my new obsession.

Tempeh is truly a superfood. It is affordable, relatively fridge-stable, super high in protein (and vegan, which is a hard combo to find), and very high in fiber. Tempeh is a brick of fermented soy beans, which gives you a slightly nutty flavor and all the benefits of soy consumption, without the labor of tofu prep.

My favorite way to prepare tempeh is to chop into medium pieces and sauté in oil on either side until golden grown. Remove from heat and mix in BBQ sauce (my personal favorite is Bachan's Japanese BBQ). This is absurdly simple and makes for the easiest side protein dish to pair with salads, stir fries, soup, etc.

Vanilla Chia Pudding + Stewed Apples = The perfect pre and probiotic combo!

Vanilla Chia Pudding:

Ingredients:
- Fairlife skim milk, 1 cup (13 gm PRO) or if you prefer plant based, try soy milk for extra protein (7 gm/cup)
- Chia Seeds, 1/4 cup
- Vanilla extract, 1 tsp
- Maple syrup (if needed depending on the sweetness of protein powder)

Directions: Mix everything (except for fruit) thoroughly (or blend) and then leave in the fridge overnight. The next morning you'll have a high fiber pudding at the ready. Top with fresh strawberries or blueberries for added texture and sweetness! If you blend all the ingredients during prep you'll be left with a smooth pudding consistency. Otherwise, it'll be more like a rice pudding consistency.

This recipe (before added fruit) contains 17 gm dietary fiber!!!

Stewed Apples:

Apples
Cinnamon
Water
Maple syrup
Vanilla extract
Brown sugar
Flax powder (mix in at the end)
Chopped pecans
Optional - oats

Sauté chopped apples and cinnamon +/- oats with a little splash of water until desired consistency is reached. Add maple syrup, vanilla extract, brown sugar, pecans and mix well. Once removed from the heat, mix in flax powder.

Store this in the fridge and add as a topping to chia pudding throughout the week.
