Awesome find! If you ever find yourself in Stafford Springs, CT, go to #Sabor44 Olive Oil Tap Room- a boutique shop that has #infused #organic #oliveoil. No words. Just try!

Delicious #breakfast by @tcabrarr! By adding a ton of #veggies (peppers, zucchini, scallions) to the scrambled #eggs, you crowd out some of the other sides on the plate. In this case, bacon and slow cooked #barbacoa. Love #Saturday’s! #familytime #lazynutritionist #breakfast #lazynutrition #Bushwick #bushwicknutrition #slowcook http://ift.tt/1jhaQjt
Random #cooking tip: my favorite way to cut a #pepper is to 1) cut the top of the pepper WITHOUT cutting all the way through, then 2) pop the top out with the seeds, 3) cut the rest of the pepper in two chunks, and lastly 4) cut the chunks into #julienne slices… because we are fancy that way ;) Use peppers in: fajitas, stir fry, omelets, salads, as a dipping utensil, or alone with a little cayenne. Yum.

A little inspiration from @simplegreensmoothies goes a long way! Here is my own #greensmoothie concoction for today:
-1 cup of unsweetened almond milk -1 cup of #kale (I freeze mine)
-½ cup of #pineapple -½ green #apple (from our #appletree!) -1 tsp #maca powder (for an added antioxidant boost! More on maca later) -¼ tsp of #stevia -dash of powdered #clove *Blend liquid and greens first, then add everything else and blend again. Enjoy!

#LentilSoup is definitely one of my go-to meals, especially once it starts getting chilly (sniff sniff). The recipe always changes slightly since I end up adding whatever veggies I have in the fridge, but the base is the same. Theo is eating everything now, so I am all about #BulkCooking and preparing #TwoInOne. Why not?! Equally healthy and so much easier! Just make sure to add condiments AFTER you separate your babies portion of the food!
#Ours: Bring 4 cups of low sodium vegetable or beef broth and 2 cups of water to boil. Chop 1 small onion, 3 stalks of #bokchoy, and 3 large #carrots. Add 1 cup of lentils to the pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower to medium and add veggies and ½ cup of tomato puree. Cook for 35-40 minutes. Condiments: turmeric, S&P to taste, and/or olive oil.
#His: We are playing around with #textures, so I intentionally left the soup a little chunky. Avoid using too much liquid when blending.

#Salad time! Bed of greens (spinach and arugula) topped with chicken and onions*, butternut squash**, sunflower seeds (2 tbsp), shredded cheddar (1tbsp), basil-infused olive oil (delicious!!!), and cayenne pepper. * Cooked the chicken with a little tomato paste, red wine, olive oil, and water. Added onions towards the end so they were slightly crunchy. ** Cubed butternut squash into small pieces. Sautéed in water/oil and added fresh basil towards the end.
These ingredients were part of another dish. Love the #benefits of #bulkcooking!

Yup, on a Tuesday at the end of the month, I started a 90-day Yoga challenge! Woott woot. If you want to join me (please do) I am doing #YogaFix90 by @fightmasteryoga. The classes are on #YouTube. Each class is 30 minutes long and in the comfort of your own home. Come on! We can do it :))) #noexcuses #yogachallenge #mybackneedsyoga #lazynutritionist #lazynutrition #bushwicknutrition #bushwicknutrition #bushwickyoga #nope #society6 http://ift.tt/1KIINlM
It’s not everyday that you get to eat an #apple from your own #appletree! Pretty freakin’ cool.
Apples are #1 on the #dirtydozen list, so make sure to purchase local or organic apples to reduce your exposure to #pesticide residue. #anappletreegrowsinbrooklyn #grateful #bushwick #bushwicknutrition #lazynutrition #lazynutritionist http://ift.tt/1h3qNrr
New favorite #dip = #edamame #hummus. Yum. Nutritionally very similar to #chickpea-based hummus. I would, however, choose #organic, since most #soybeans are #GMO. Or… read the ingredients and make sure it says: #nonGMO soybeans, just like the #EatWellEmbraceLife brand. I chose rice crackers as my dipping medium, but you can also use veggies, fruit, whole-grain crackers, or a spoon ;)

#Cod is one of the most Eco-friendly #fish. It also happens to be very easy to cook and perfectly flaky consistency for babies to eat. There’s very little need to add salt to a babies diet, so I just cooked the cod with a olive oil and herbs de Provence. About 3 minutes on each side. I let it cool down before I shred it.
Pictured:
#Ours: mixed cod with onion, olives, lime, tomatoes, cucumber, and fresh basil.
#His: shredded cod, which I will later add to his pre-cooked purees or use as finger foods (to get those fine motor skills working!). I also froze cucumber slices so he can use them as teething “toys.”

I’ve tried my fair share of #guacs, but @amarantobklyn has one of the best so far! If you are in #Bushwick, you should give them a try. #Avocados are packed with #antioxidants and #antiinflammatory properties. The high fat (#healthyfat) also helps absorb #fatsolublevitamins. A quarter of an avocado has 75 calories, loads of #unsaturated fat, and 3 grams of fiber. #Guacamole-on! #bushwicknutrition #lazynutrition #lazynutritionist #homemadefood #homemadetortillas #corntortillas (at Amaranto)
Today my little boy is 7 months old! One of the things I love most about this age is the food introduction, #exploration. Our pediatric team (#TribecaPediatrics) is awesome! They really harp on the consistency of food (yogurt-like) at this time, but strongly suggest an array of flavors (highlighting savory instead of sweet).
Pictured:
#Mine: unsweetened whole fat organic yogurt with frozen berries and lightly sweetened granola.

I have officially become an #oyster person. I feel part of a cool club! Oysters are one of the most nutritious foods per calorie. They are an excellent source of #zinc, #vitaminD, #vitaminB12, #protein (1 gram per oyster) and #healthyfats—specifically omega-3 fatty acids. A half dozen is about 50 calories (very #lowcalorie). They are also highly #sustainable since they clean, benefit, and support the environment in which they grow. #awesomefood #oysterlove #bushwicknutrition #bushwick #lazynutrition #lazynutritionist
One of my favorite places to revisit in #Bogota is #AbastoBodega in #Usaquen. It’s a beautiful place that houses local, fresh goods- anything from granola to jams to eggs to coffee. Completely recommend! #lovethisplace #latergram #local #freshfood #bushwick #bushwicknutrition #lazynutrition #lazynutritionist #colombia
Happy to be home! Missed #homemade #frenchtoast. I usually soak the bread for a long time in a mix of #eggs, #almondmilk, and #spices (this time it was #cloves, #cinnamon and a grinder from #traderjoes that has sugar, chocolate, and coffee). I opt for less bread and more egg mix. Then the trick is to use more whole #fruit instead of so much sweetener. Even though Agave, 100% pure maple syrup, or honey are #naturalsweeteners they still have tons of sugar/calories. I also sprinkled the French toast with #sprouted grains and seeds. More on that later! #lazynutritionist #lazynutrition #bushwicknutrition #bushwick #home
Making another random appearance from #Bogota! Checking out @callaosangucheria for its delicious Peruvian #sandwiches. Pictured: #vegetarian with #quinoa, an array of seeds, #avocado, #zucchini, #eggplant, #mushrooms and #hummus spread. Love my veggies! #bushwicknutrition #colombia #lazynutrition #lazynutritionist
#Fruit is a great way to start your morning. The natural sugars and high #fiber/#water content provide gentle #energy throughout the day. Pictured: #passionfruit and #tangerine. Can’t wait to try all the exotic fruits of #Colombia :) #healthywhiletraveling #bushwick #bushwicknutrition #lazynutrition #lazynutritionist (at Bogotá, Colombia)
#Breakfast4Lunch! To cook: sauté #butternutsquash in about 1 tbsp of olive oil for 4min or so. Cut it up really tiny so that it cooks faster. Add 1 small tomato and sauté for another minute. Crack in an extra large #egg and 1 slice of cheese. In the meantime heat up a 4" whole wheat pita. S&P to taste. This meal is packed with #fiber, #protein, #healthyfats, and #antioxidants from all the vibrant colors. And takes 10 mins to prepare! #mykindofmeal #lazynutritionist #lazynutrition #bushwicknutrition #bushwick #easymeals #fastmeal
#Watermelon #Mint #Icepops! Watermelons’ naturally sweet taste and high water content make it a perfect fruit for blending and making ice-pops without any added sugars (or even water). It’s jam-packed with #vitaminC, #vitaminA, and #potassium (#hearthealthy). One cup is only about 45 calories. Choose deep red/pink since studies show that
fully ripened watermelons have higher #antioxidants.
Blend 4 cups of tightly packed, cubed, fresh/frozen watermelon and a handful of fresh mint or spearmint leaves. Blend and stir as needed. Makes 10 3-ounce #popsicles. About 20 calories each!

A delicious mishmosh of #BBQ #leftovers including #veggie #skewers, #israelisalad, #chicken, tomato with basil, and #cornsalad. For Theo: puréed #zucchini and #redpeppers made with #BabyCook from @Beaba_USA. It’s a huge time and clean-up-saver since you can both cook and blend in the same container. In love. Thank you @carlishc! #lazynutritionist #lazynutrition #bushwicknutrition #bushwick
