Getting a nutritious dinner on the table doesn't h

Getting a nutritious dinner on the table doesn't have to be complicated! ⁠
⁠
I'm all about easy dinners. 😃⁠
⁠
Last week I made a 'snack dinner' and it was a win-win all around. ⁠
⁠
Anything goes with the snack dinner, but here's what I added:⁠
⁠
Tuna Salad (let's be real, my kids did not eat this. I loved it and ate the rest for lunch the next day at the beach. I put celery, vegan mayo, salt, pepper, a bit of grainy mustard)⁠
⁠
Roasted chickpeas (salt, avocado oil, and chili powder roasted for 20 mins at 400 degrees or so).⁠
⁠
Crackers.⁠
⁠
Veggies and fruit⁠
⁠
Baby bell cheese and goat brie⁠
⁠
Dinner is done, baby! ⁠
⁠
As I said, anything goes and this can easily be packed up in a container to bring to the park, beach, or a friend's house. ⁠

Want your family to eat more fruits and veggies?

Want your family to eat more fruits and veggies?

The key is to cut them up! Any time I cut a plate of fruit like this the whole family eats it up. If I don’t, it sits in the bottom of the fridge sad and crying.

Mix and match fruits and veggies and try it!

💥Roasted Eggplant and Red Peppers with Hummus and Feta💥⁠
⁠
Last week I bought a crapload of mini eggplants and didn’t cook half of them, so this week I’m cooking through them!⁠
⁠
I made this super simple recipe yesterday for lunch and it was delish! ⁠
⁠
Here’s the non-recipe:⁠
⁠
💥2 small eggplants, sliced lengthwise about 1/2-1 inch thick⁠
💥Half a red pepper, sliced wide-ish⁠
💥A glug of extra virgin olive oil⁠
💥2-3 tbsp of hummus (I'm digging the hummus from @jaffalaffa)⁠
💥2-3 tbsp goat feta⁠
💥a handful of broccoli sprouts⁠
💥1/2-1 tsp dried oregano⁠
💥1/2-1 tsp dried basil⁠
💥Salt to taste⁠
⁠
How to make it:⁠
⁠
💥Set your oven to 375 degrees F on the convection setting (if you don’t have this just set it to 400 degrees F).⁠
💥Brush the eggplant and red peppers with oil and sprinkle with spices and salt⁠
💥Bake for 15-20 mins depending on your oven heat.⁠
💥Remove and set on a plate. If they seem a bit dry, add brush a bit more olive oil on them.⁠
💥Top eggplant with hummus, peppers, feta, and sprouts in that order.⁠
💥Eat and Enjoy!⁠
⁠
Now tell me... do you like eggplant? ⁠
⁠
I thought everyone did until my Mom told me last week that she had never had it and then told me she didn't like it after she tried it. ⁠
⁠
I was proud of her for trying it! 😃
