LENTIL SPINACH Stew WITH LEMON This lentil stew is partially pureed so it gives it a nice “comfort food” feel without the creams and butters. It has a lot of protein, fiber, and very nutrient dense especially if you get the vegetables from the farmers market. Ingredients: 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 onion, diced 1 carrot, peeled and diced 3-4 garlic cloves chopped 1 tablespoon tomato paste 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 4 cups vegetable stock 1 cup water 1 1/4 cups brown, green or red lentils, rinsed (preferably red or green) 1 bay leaf 2 cups fresh spinach leaves 1/4 cup chopped cilantro 1 whole lemon Directions: In a stock pot heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and carrot. Sauté until the onion softens and starts to turn golden. Add the tomato paste, cumin, cayenne, salt and pepper. Stir and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the vegetable stock, water, lentils and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer then cover the pot, slightly vented. Let the soup cook for about 20-30 minutes until the lentils are soft. Remove the bay leaf and discard. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup halfway, so that it thickens but still has texture. Add the fresh spinach leaves and cilantro. Turn off the heat and stir in fresh lemon juice to taste. Adjust seasonings if desired, and serve. #HealthyEats #CleanEating #NutritionNinja #FitFood #HealthyLifestyle #NourishYourBody #GuiltFreeGoodness #BalancedBites #weightloss #mindfulness #mindset #food #lifestyle #wellness #wls#healthybariatricrecipes #Foodpicsitalia #eatwelllivewell #food _empire_ #foodie #foodlover #foodstylist #toodblogger #foodpics #foodphotography #foodheaven #foodlove #foodim #lentil #lentils

Artichokes with saffron tofu sauce and an olive caper tapenade Artichokes are a great source of protein and fiber. My previous reel was instructional on how to prepare the artichoke this reel is the steaming method (you can also boil, grill, or roast them) along with a couple of fun, flavorful, and easy dipping sauces. Recipe: Ingredients: 14 oz silken tofu 3 tbls lemon juice 1/4 tsp saffron threads 2 tsp dijon mustard 1/2 tsp garlic salt 1/4 tsp cayenne 2 tbls water Directions:  Place 2 inches of water in a steamer pot and bring to a boil.
Snap off the bottom stem of the artichoke (or use a knife to slice it off)Trim the prickly end of each leaf off with scissors. 
 Place artichokes in the steamer pot stem end up, cover and cook over medium-high heat for 20-25 minutes or until the leaves peel off the artichoke easily and the base of the artichoke is tender when pierced with a fork. 
 While the artichokes steam make the sauces. Saffron Tofu: In a small bowl combine the saffron and lemon juice and let sit for about 15 minutes. In a food processor combine the lemon mixture with the rest of the ingredients and pulse until you get a smooth silky texture. Olive caper tapenade: 1/4 cup capers 1/4 c kalamata olives 1/4 c sun dried tomato 1 tbls balsamic vinegar 1/2 c olive oil Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until you get a smooth texture. 
 When the artichokes are done place them in individual bowls and have a “group” bowl available for the leaves. When eating the large artichokes, you want to pull off the leaves and eat the “meat” off of the bottom half of each leaf, discarding the leaves into the large bowl. Once you’ve eaten all of the leaves, you will have the artichoke heart remaining. With a knife or spoon, scrape out and discard the inedible fuzzy part (called the “choke”) covering the artichoke heart. The remaining bottom of the artichoke is the heart. Cut into pieces and dip into either sauce to eat. #cheflife #chef #chefplateform #foodie #food #foodphotography #photograph #plate #plating #eatwelllivewell #HealthyEats #CleanEating #funcooking #artichokes #artichoke #vegan #healthyeating

Artichokes are so delicious and really easy to prepare. After these few easy steps you can just boil, roast, or steam them.

Roasted Carrots with radishes and white beans sauce, In our house we love the farmers market and getting the freshest, vibrant, nutrient dense vegetables they have to offer. The carrots in this recipe are so tender the roasting time was cut almost in half. Adding the nutritional yeast to the sauce adds protein and vitamins and minerals. Recipe: Ingredients: 2 bunches organic carrots with the tops on 1 bunch radishes 1 tsp kosher salt 1/2 tsp paprika 1/2 tsp ground ginger 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp ground cumin 1/4 tsp ground coriander 1/3 cup olive oil Bean sauce: 1 15oz can white beans drained 1 tbls tahini 2 tbls nutritional yeast 1/4c water Garnish: parsley and lemon wedges Directions: Preheat the oven to 425F. Wash the carrots well (if fresh from the farmers market do not peel the skin). Cut the carrots into sticks on the bias 1/4 to 1/2” thick. Slice the radishes. Place the carrots and radishes on a sheet pan. In a small bowl, whisk the salt, paprika, ginger, garlic powder, cumin, and coriander. Then add the olive oil. Pour the spice mixture over the carrots and radishes then toss well. Spread in a single layer (do not over crowd them, use two sheet pans if necessary). Roast for about 12-15 minutes (25 minutes if not using fresh) tossing halfway through, until the carrots are caramelized on the edges, the skins are wrinkled, and the inside is fork tender. While the vegetables roast, add the beans, tahini, nutritional yeast, and water to a blender or food processor and blend into a smooth texture. To serve add the bean sauce to a plate then top with the vegetables and garnish with parsley and a lemon wedge. #HealthyEats #CleanEating #NutritionNinja #FitFood #HealthyLifestyle #NourishYourBody #BalancedBites #mindfulness #mindset #lifestyle #wellness #healthybariatricrecipes #Foodpicsitalia #eatwelllivewell #food _empire_ #foodie #foodlover #foodstylist #foodblogger #foodpics #foodphotography #foodart #foodheaven #foodlove #foodim #farmersmarket #freshveggies

This mussels dish is simple but packed with so much flavor and protein. The white wine (a classic ingredient when making mussels) brings the entire dish together. Adding the broth gives you a nice sauce to spoon, sip, or (better yet) dip a nice fresh piece of sourdough in. Recipe: Ingredients: 1lb mussels 1 Tbsp olive oil 2 Tbsp Butter 2 shallots chopped 4 garlic cloves sliced 2 celery stalks julienned 2 tbsp fresh tarragon leaves 2 medium quality tomatoes chopped 1/2 lemon 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes 1/4 tsp salt 3/4 cup white wine (french chardonnay or a nice sauvignon blanc) 1 cup vegetable broth Garnish with a lemon wedge, parsley, and a nice crusty bread (sourdough) Directions: In a skillet or large pot add olive oil and butter. As the butter starts to brown add in celery, shallots and garlic and cook until fragrant. Add tarragon cook for another 2 minutes then add the tomatoes. Season with salt and add red pepper flakes. Add the wine and stew for about 3 minutes. Add the broth bring to a simmer then add the mussels. Cover for 5-6 minutes then discard the ones that do not open. Remove the mussels and set aside. To serve add 5-6 mussels to a bowl then ladle the sauce over the mussels (making sure you get enough juice to dip the bread in). #HealthyEats #CleanEating #NutritionNinja #FitFood #HealthyLifestyle #NourishYourBody #GuiltFreeGoodness #BalancedBites #weightloss #mindfulness #mindset #food #lifestyle #wellness #wls#healthybariatricrecipes #Foodpicsitalia #eatwelllivewell #food _empire_ #foodie #foodlover #foodstylist #foodblogger #foodpics #foodphotography #foodart #foodheaven #foodlove #foodim #bisonmfg

Butternut squash soup with beans and escarole This soup is another great source of protein and fiber. It’s a very simple and easy weeknight soup, not a lot of chopping and you can get the butternut squash already diced and the supermarket. Adding the balsamic vinegar adds an extra nice flavor. Recipe: Ingredients: 2 tbsp olive oil 1 head escarole, chopped 3 cloves garlic, chopped 1 onion, chopped 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves chopped 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 (15oz) can good quality diced tomatoes 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and diced 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth 2 tsp balsamic vinegar 1 (15oz) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed Directions: In a large (5½- to 7/-quart) Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, thyme, and garlic and sauté about 4-5 minutes until the onions soften. Stir in the tomatoes, squash, and broth. Bring soup to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes or until the squash is tender. Purée the soup in a blender (in batches), or leave in the pot and use an immersion blender. Stir in the balsamic vinegar, escarole, and beans. Heat for an additional 5 minutes to warm the beans before serving. #HealthyEats #CleanEating #NutritionNinja #FitFood #HealthyLifestyle #NourishYourBody #GuiltFreeGoodness #BalancedBites #weightloss #mindfulness #mindset #food #lifestyle #wellness #wls#healthybariatricrecipes #Foodpicsitalia #eatwelllivewell #food _empire_ #foodie #foodlover #foodstylist #foodblogger #foodpics #foodphotography #foodart #foodheaven #foodlove #foodim #soups

Cutting the tortillas for tortilla soup. The recipe is below and the full video will be out soon but this video is about technique with the finger placement while cutting the strips. Recipe: 1 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 small/medium white onion, sliced 4 garlic cloves, peeled and left whole 1 28 can of good quality diced tomatoes 6-7c vegetable stock 8oz mushrooms 8oz shiitake - sliced 1/4 inch 10 tortillas Lime juice Salt Garnish: 1 can Chili in adobo sauce - cut in thin strips Goat cheese Avocado 1 cup Watercress Directions: Heat the oven to 425F. Cut the tortillas in thirds, then cut crosswise into very thin strips. On 2 baking sheets, cover with aluminum foil and spray with oil. Spread the tortilla strips in a single layer and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle with lime and salt. Bake about 8 minutes then give it a good stir. Then continue to bake checking every 3 minutes until the tortilla strips are golden brown. Take them out, place them in a big bowl, and they will continue to crisp up as they cool. In a medium-large (4-quart) heat the oil over medium. Add the garlic and onion and cook, stirring regularly, until golden about 7-8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, scoop up the garlic and onion, pressing them against the side of the pan to leave behind as much oil as possible and transfer to a food processor or blender. Set the pan aside. Add the tomatoes to the garlic and onion and process to a smooth puree. Set the saucepan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the pure and stir constantly until it has thickened to the consistency of tomato paste, about 10 minutes. Add the broth and sliced mushrooms and bring to a boil, then partially cover and gently simmer for about 30 minutes. Taste and season with salt. To Serve: In a bowl, first add the goat cheese, avocado, adobo chilis (at this point adjust the chilis to each persons desired heat level). Then ladle the soup and top with tortilla strips and watercress. Before eating give the soup a good stir to let the goat cheese dissolve into the soup. #food _empire_ #food #KnifeSkills #ChopArt #ChopSkills #KnifeArtistry #ChopWithEase #cheflife #eatwelllivewell #HealthyEats #CleanEating

This half cream/ half almond milk version is a good compromise between richness and texture but at the same time reducing the calories (under 200 calories for 4oz).
