Kale Pesto

February 17, 2014 / Skinny Fat Kids / Source

Kale should be a staple in your fridge at all times, it is a nutritional powerhouse that you want to include in your diet as much as possible. I know you might be getting bored with the original kale salad, or kale smoothies so I decided to make something up for lunch today. I also love sauces in general so it worked out perfect. Kale has a high concentration of Vitamins K, A and C, is full of antioxidants and is one of the healthiest vegetables around. Also, buying pesto in the stores (good quality ones) are very overpriced. Plus most of them have a lot of over processed ingredients, start making your own and you will be able to come up with a bunch of amazing variations.

Immunity Soup

This soup is great to make when you are sick or even when you just feel like having a light healthy meal. The broth is both soothing and spicy, rich in flavors. I finally had an appetite after being sick so I decided to add chicken to mine.

Spicy Pumpkin and Pistachio Pesto

This pesto is a great alternative to your original pestos. Using soaked nuts that have higher nutritional content and less fat then your standard pine nuts is an easy substitution. I like to make extra and freeze it into ice cube trays.

Turmeric Juice

Turmeric is one of those things everyone needs to add to their life. I know you all have heard of superfoods and this is definitely one of them. It is not expensive, easy to add into your routine, and benefits almost every system in our bodies. If you are using the powder you can sprinkle it on roasted veggies, add it to soups, curries, sweet potatoes, egg salad, use it as a rub, or put it in your smoothie.

As you can see, I am back... Being in the health/weight loss/ fitness industry New Years resolutions are "in" to say the least. I decided to make mine a little different and do what I started over a year ago... Share my recipes, nutrition and ideas with the people I love. Even though I have very little free time right now, I WILL find time to blog. Here is a little something I threw together with my parents on this lazy, rainy, Sunday. Hope it finds you well.[puregallery]

I love gluten free crust, they are in my fridge at all times. I rotate through 3 of my favorites. Each are made with a variety of gluten free ingredients and take little time to make. You can find them in the freezer section at Whole Foods or any natural food store.
