Curried Cottage Pie

January 4, 2020 by Linden Desai Leave a Comment

The idea for this recipe came when I was experimenting with Ethiopian food. I’m not exactly a purist when it comes to cooking (all about that fusion food), and I’ve wanted to find a way to enjoy cottage pie more for years. I love mashed potatoes, veggies are my jam, but even making the pie … [Keep reading…]

Chocolate Banana Tofu Pudding

March 13, 2019 by Linden Desai Leave a Comment

Sweet treats are one of those things that we all love but dont often serve our goals. Luckily, that is NOT the case for this pudding. It is packed full of protein from silken tofu, fibre and potassium from bananas, and iron and magnesium from cocoa powder!   To make this vegan, gluten free treat … [Keep reading…]

Clean Eating Zucchini Banana Bread

February 26, 2019 by Linden Desai Leave a Comment

I’m not sure why it took me so long to tackle more loaves and muffins that serve your health goals, but now that it’s on my radar, there will be many more coming! How often do you find zucchini bread recipes that have 3/4 cups zucchini with a cup of sugar added to make basically … [Keep reading…]

Sausage, Feta, and Sundried Tomato Hand Pies

January 13, 2019 by Linden Desai Leave a Comment

Hand pies have been on my list of foods to make for a while now. They are SO versatile, kids love eating anything they can hold (although Tess turned her nose up at the filling of these ?), and I just find them so appealing! These are a joint effort by my husband and I. … [Keep reading…]

Chicken Artichoke Lasagna Florentine

December 11, 2018 by Linden Desai Leave a Comment

When you see that artichokes are on sale at your local grocer, it’s impossible to leave them as far as I’m concerned. Whether or not I had any clue how to prepare them ahead of time, had never bought them fresh before, and had only come across extremely unhealthy recipes (aside from plainly roasting them.. … [Keep reading…]

BBQ Chicken Protein Pizza

December 2, 2018 by Linden Desai Leave a Comment

Eating clean can sometimes look a little light from the outside. Maybe you aren’t up for eating flatbreads with Cottage cheese or eating dry chicken wings. I get it. Sometimes you just need a saucy, heavy slice of pizza covered in goodness. This dough recipe is adapted from the popular 4 Ingredient Bagels that you are seeing everywhere. … [Keep reading…]

“Strong not Skinny” Fish Casserole

September 17, 2018 by Linden Desai Leave a Comment

I’m not a huge fan of the term “strong not skinny” usually because it implies that there is something wrong with skinny people (who are usually perfectly healthy!). You see the term “skinny” applied to recipes often because it gets your blog the most traffic while making it clear that it’s weightloss friendly. I create … [Keep reading…]

This week, while I got a bit ambitious with multiple lunches, I decided to show you an example of my personal processes while meal planning and prepping. This plan uses a combination of Plan B for my lifting and hiiting program and nutrition course. … [Keep reading…]

Authentic Zoodle Pad Thai

August 1, 2018 by Linden Desai Leave a Comment

The name of this dish sounds like an oxymoron. “Traditional, authentic style pad thai does NOT have Zoodles,” you yell. “Explain yourself!” If you insist. 😉 I love making Asian food that tastes as close to the original as possible, but I’m also on a health journey. When creating the sauce, I translated recipes, searched … [Keep reading…]
