Strawberry Chia Jam 🍓(RECIPE below)⁣ ⁣ 4 in Strawberry Chia Jam 🍓(RECIPE below)⁣ ⁣ 4 ingredients, about 20 minutes, and you’ve got a delicious healthy jam spread to use for PB&Js, on top of waffles, in yogurt, or whatever your jam 😉⁣ ⁣ INGREDIENTS⁣ 1 cup frozen strawberries (roughly chopped) ⁣ 1/4 cup fresh orange juice⁣ 1/4 cup water ⁣ 1 teaspoon orange zest⁣ 1 tablespoon chia seeds⁣ ⁣ TO MAKE:⁣ 1. Add strawberries, orange juice, and orange zest, to a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil then reduce heat to simmer. Cook for 10 minutes mashing the strawberries with a potato masher or fork while cooking. For a very smooth jam you can purée with a hand blender while in the pan. ⁣ ⁣ 2. Whisk in the chia seeds, then remove from heat and let sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to thicken the jam. ⁣ ⁣ 3. Refrigerate in an air tight container. ⁣ ⁣ #chiaseeds #healthyrecipes #chiajam
Who has kids that just looove bars? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️ ⁣ Our fam definitely relies on them at times for convenience, taste, and snack variety...especially since I've got a more selective eater (who loves these), which can make variety a challenge. As parents, many of us in this community are lucky to have so many options to choose from in terms of what, when and how to feed our children. Our challenges with food are real, but they are privileged ones. ⁣ ⁣ The reality is that many parents around the world deal with a much larger issue - the one of not knowing when or if their child will eat AT ALL. In fact, there are 1 in 4 children worldwide who do not have the nutrition they need just to survive. 😞⁣ ⁣ This season I've partnered with @Thisbar in hopes of keeping the holiday spirit of giving alive and to help raise awareness. For every purchase of @Thisbar you send a packet of life saving peanut-paste filled with nutrients to a child in need. ⁣ ⁣ 👉 There are at least 17 MILLION children suffering from acute severe malnutrition that need this help. 8,000 of these kids die each day from malnutrition. ⁣ ⁣ 👉 But research shows that getting nutrition within the first 2 years of life offers kids a much better opportunity to thrive.⁣ ⁣ ❤️ Please join me in supporting hunger this season. You can do so really easily buy purchasing @Thisbar using my 25% off discount code: STEPHANIE25. They make awesome stocking stuffers and school gifts, or to have on hand during your travels. ⁣ ⁣ If you want to do more please consider supporting one of their partner organizations @actionagainsthunger and @secondmilehaiti ⁣ NOTE! This Saves Lives kid's bars make an awesome donation to your local school since they are top 5 allergen free. My daughter's preschool was thrilled when I suggested adding them to their list of approved snacks/treats that parents are allowed to bring in. And I feel great about having them as options for plane travel, or when we have play dates with my 5 year old's best friend with a severe nut allergy. ⁣ ⁣ This post is not sponsored, but @thisbar sent me #samples of their new bars to try. #thissaveslives #weeattogether #actionagainsthunger

Soup of Farro with Tomatoes and Greens (recipe dee Soup of Farro with Tomatoes and Greens (recipe deets below). This was like a warm hug. I always forget how much I adore farro until I make it again. It’s chewy texture really makes this soup. ⁣ Family feeding note: The girls didn’t try the soup although they were curious and my youngest ate some parm cheese out of my bowl. I served farro on the side and they both had some dressed with olive oil and Parmesan cheese! We also served bread, salad and chopped raw veggies, and beans on the side, so everyone had something to eat. This is how I serve fam meals when the main is something they’re still learning to like (right now most mixed soups aren’t in favor.) ⁣ ⁣ ✨RECIPE ✨ Ingredients⁣ 1 tbsp olive oil⁣ 1 medium onion, chopped⁣ 2 medium carrots, chopped ⁣ 2 cloves garlic (medium), minced ⁣ 2 cups canned diced tomatoes ⁣ 4 cups chicken or veg broth⁣ 1 cup farro⁣ 4 cups fresh baby spinach ⁣ 1/2 teaspoon salt⁣ 1/4 teaspoon black pepper⁣ 1/4 cup grated pecorino or Parmesan cheese⁣ ⁣ Heat the oil. Add the onion, celery and carrot. Cook until they begin to soften, about 4-5 minutes. Add garlic and stir for another minute or until fragrant. Add tomatoes, broth, and farro. ⁣ ⁣ Bring to a boil then lower heat and simmer until the farro is tender, about 30 minutes. Add salt and pepper. Stir in spinach until wilted. Serve topped with Parmesan.
🤰Did you know that eating seafood at least 2x / 🤰Did you know that eating seafood at least 2x / week during pregnancy can have a VERY positive impact on baby's brain, eye, and visual development? ⭐️ One review of over 44 published studies found that children whose mothers ate seafood at least 2x / week during pregnancy scored 7.7 IQ points higher on average than those whose moms did not eat seafood. ⁣ ⁣ I've found that so many women are still confused🤔 about eating seafood during pregnancy. Many are too scared to eat it at all because well-meaning family, friends, or even health professionals tell them to stay away from it. ⁣ ⁣ ⭐️ But according to the EPA and FDA there are only 7 types of high mercury fish you should avoid eating while pregnant:⁣ ⁣ 🚫 No to shark, swordfish, king mackerel, bigeye tuna (does not include canned light tuna or albacore tuna), marlin and orange roughy. These large fish often accumulate too much mercury to be safe to eat. ⁣ ⁣ @willow_jarosh and I have lots of recipes for eating more fish in our Healthy, Happy Pregnancy Cookbook. 📔 Stay tuned for more tips on helping kiddos eat more seafood, because it's important for their little growing brains, too! ⁣ #cjnutrition #seafood #pregnancynutrition
I used to think there were few better combinations I used to think there were few better combinations than egg, avocado, hummus and in-season tomatoes all piled on some kind of bread / tortilla. Now I realize that I was wrong. Everything but the bagel seasoning was just waiting to rock my favorite meal’s world. Thx @traderjoes 😘😘 #ebtbseasoning
