Weekly Eats Roundup

March 23, 2018 By Robyn 31 Comments

THANK YOU so so much for your incredibly kind and supportive comments on Monday’s post and the emails and Instagram messages you sent. I couldn’t even begin to articulate how much your support and loyalty to this space means. And I loved hearing how much you enjoy the “deeper” content posts on women’s health topics and intuitive eating – those are my favorite to write. I’ll still be sharing snippets of life here and there as well and will still do some “weekly eats” posts to recap random times I did pull out my phone to snap a pic. But I’ve felt such peace, relief and rest even in this first week of bopping off social media around 6pm and not feeling like I need to take a picture of what I eat. It sounds so simple, but the effects are more than simple. So thank YOU. I hope you feel the freedom to also draw boundaries in your own life 🙂

So onto the weekly eats! Whenever I do this it’s a dump of whatever is on my camera roll from the past couple weeks.

Breakfasts

I picked up this loaf of sprouted grain raisin bread because it was on sale for $3 and was like, ok I’ll try it. I have a strong affection (read: obsession) with Iggy’s bread because it’s chewy and crusty and not dense …aka it’s freaking delicious. So I think I’ve now ruined it for all other bread. I slathered sunbutter + banana on one half, cream cheese + jam on another and ate the toast with whole milk greek yogurt + blueberries + raisin bran cereal for some crunch.

Nick and I have been making bacon, egg and cheese bagels at home on the weekend and they are AWESOME. The key…really good bagels and bacon. Whole Foods sells Iggy’s bagels for $1 in the bakery section so if you live in Boston go get some. I prefer fried eggs because of the runny yolks, crispy bacon (never limp bacon…that sounds and tastes gross) and sharp, sharp cheddar.

Leftover pumpkin oatmeal blender pancakes one morning with the rest of the container of whole milk greek yogurt. Maple syrup was used for dipping – added right after I snapped this. I think there may have been some chocolate chips tucked inside these…but I forget. Highly recommend adding chocolate chips to this recipe, after blending!

Last week I ate leftover kale + sausage + sweet potato egg casserole from our brunch party paired with non other than Iggy’s toast with avocado + everything seasoning and cream cheese + strawberry jam and half banana with sunbutter. Side note –> you will almost always see me eating 1/2 banana because I can’t stomach a full banana + nutbutter ….my taste buds are like blahhhhhh if I eat more than half. Maybe it’s a texture thing?

Lastly, good ole pumpkin oatmeal with blueberries and banana stirred in and topped with melty sunbutter. Plus coffee and a side of snowstorm because March apparently is the month of snow up here.
Lunches

This week for lunch I planned spinach salad (pretty much the only cold salad I’ll eat all winter) with hummus + TJs pita for lunch. Plus some bell pepper that was on it’s last leg.

For the salad I bought bagged shaved brussel sprouts and sautéed them in avocado oil, sea salt and pepper until they were soft and tender. Then made this easy + simple balsamic vinaigrette. When lunch time rolls around I put some baby spinach in a bowl (that was way too big for the salad portion I ate lol but there were no clean dishes) add the brussel sprouts (cold from the fridge) and top with walnuts, goat cheese, cranberries and the dressing.

Another day I ate a pyrex full of leftovers. Sautéed red cabbage, kale, brown rice that’s on the bottom and the last of some rotisserie chicken. Topped with a fried egg and s + p. I think I ate some dark chocolate after this.

I had lunch with a reader/dietitian last week at Dig Inn. I haven’t had Dig Inn forever (we use to go all the time in New York) and forgot how good it is – think of like a chipotle style fast causal with food more like Whole Foods hot bar. I went with farro + greens for a base, salmon for my protein and roasted broccoli and carrots for sides. I was still hungry after this when I got back to the library to do work so ate some dark chocolate. Sometimes I’m full after 75% of this…the body is dynamic like that and I don’t know why I get full off less or more of the same meal, but I do know that my body knows what it needs. Just in case you’re like many of my clients and get confused/worried when a meal that usually fills you up doesn’t fill you up sometimes – it’s okay, your body is doing it’s thing that it knows how to do really well 🙂

Dinners

When I cook dinners, I almost always double the recipe and freeze half. It’s makes meal planning + intuitive eating easy and doable. This week we are eating creamy lentil soup with baked potatoes + butter and roasted broccoli.

And the other week we ate chili with sautéed red cabbage and roasted Yukon gold potatoes. I actually really wanted some corn bread but I didn’t have the ingredients on hand. Next time. Also I don’t have a good corn bread recipe so if you do, share in the comments!

Snacks

These were 10 for $10 this week at the grocery so I picked up a lot. I always try to get full fat dairy since there’s some studies that suggest whole milk diary decreases the risk of anovulatory cycles. Plus it tastes SO MUCH BETTER.

At the library I snacked on some pretty multicolored carrots that were on sale + an apple.

Also ate bowls of raisin bran out of tupperware because again, minimal clean dishes problem. I actually hated raisin bran as a kid and teenager (Fruity Pebbles and Cookie Crisp FTW) but as an adult I love it. I also hated raisins as a kid so there’s that.

These x lots of handfuls. I’ve had the dark chocolate pretzel slims from TJs but these are better. Salty + sweet at its finest.

And ice cream + my double chocolate chip cookie dough bars for a bedtime snack.

I hope you have a wonderful, fabulous weekend!

Also I shared this in my newsletter this week, but wanted to let you guys know that I listened to your requests and made the body image module of my hormones e-course as separate course to purchase. In this course I’ll walk you through tools, strategies and resources that will help you tolerate your body and then eventually accept your body. The goal is to learn to be a caregiver for your body instead of fighting against your natural body size – you can read more about it here. 🙂

Also, for your cornbread recipe question, my husband and I love the vegan cornbread recipe from genius kitchen (http://www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/vegan-cornbread-115929). I still love Jiffy’s cornbread mix, but this recipe is delicious too!

    Yummy eats! I tried so many cornbread recipes before finally finding my go to recipe, https://www.thespruce.com/sweet-southern-cornbread-4115072. In my opinion, it’s the perfect amount of sweet but not tooooo sweet and I love the slight honey flavor.

    Have a nice weekend!

    I just want to say that I LOVE that you aren’t afraid of desserts. I have a sweet tooth and definitely have SOMETHING at least once a day, whether it’s a small bowl of ice cream or a piece or two of chocolate. It makes me happy and brings me joy and keeps the balance. It’s refreshing to see here too! – Kaitlyn | http://www.poweredbysass.com

    I’ve been meaning to bop on here for a while and thank you for your honesty since sharing about your weekend recaps and wanting more time away from a screen. While I’m not a blogger and don’t feel the same obligations you do, I certainly do in other areas of life and can definitely relate. It’s always so encouraging to know I’m not the only one who feels this struggle at times and it helps me remember I’m only human and I’m doing the best I can in life, so THANK YOU! Also, made this salad dressing the other day and randomly had all the ingredients for the salad in this post….amaaazing. So tasty and so perfect for spring time! <3

    Do you drink whole milk everyday too? I drink non fat, but after you mentioned the anovulatory cycles thing I am wondering if I should drink whole fat.

Women’s Reproductive Health 101

I have yet to experience postpartum myself, but I've had many clients and readers that have been through that season of life. Or perhaps you are currently living through the postpartum period. Every woman's body is different, therefore every woman's experience after giving birth will be different. What works for one woman, might not work for the next. While one woman might go through postpartum and adjust to newborn life quiet seamlessly, another woman might find it much more difficult. She might need the support of medication, therapy, extra help and many other things. One way is not better than the other - they are simply two different ways of navigating the postpartum period. I hope this post helps you better care for yourself, whatever that means for you. There's no right or wrong way to care for yourself as a mom or your new baby.

A little way I’m learning to enjoy these years o A little way I’m learning to enjoy these years of getting to spend so much time with my kids: aka another way I’m discovering some pockets of peace so my heart & mind & soul don’t crumble under the reality of dependent & emotionally dysregulated tiny humans.  About once a week we go somewhere for baked goods. We drive or walk, buy something buttery & then find a beautiful, relatively quiet outdoor spot where the boys can romp and I can sit and think my thoughts while I watch them play. This past week we were found ourselves at the Wool Factory where the boys threw rocks & whatever else off the bridge while I ate 90% of this almond 🥐 from @coucourachou that will blow your mind. Boys ate the other 10% bc they were busy playing and didn’t ask for more quickly enough 😜  I’m finding *for me* playgrounds have a time & place but they aren’t where I enjoy motherhood & my two toddlers the most. Baked goods & a pretty outdoor spot without high drops my 15 month old could launch himself off of…I’m here for it.
I brought this bag of snacks along when I took the I brought this bag of snacks along when I took the boys to hike out at one of our favorite spots last week and when I ripped it open I was regretting my choice to share them with my kids. @baresnacks randomly sent me a box of snacks and I usually eat free food we receive or give it to a friend/neighbor and move on. But I felt it my duty to tell you about these bc they are THAT GOOD. I’m not getting paid and this isn’t sponsored - I was just shocked at how tasty these were and felt you needed to know. We ate them with some buttery roasted nuts and the combo was 👌🏻 but they are good just on their own.  The boys climbed rocks and swam in the reservoir - leave it to my almost 3 year old to want to strip down naked and fully submerge himself in chilly water on a sixty degree morning. “Mama can I get super nakey?” Sure baby. Sure. This is your childhood.
It’s a hard sell to get me to accept an offer of It’s a hard sell to get me to accept an offer of extended alone time away from the babies to just be. And that isn’t something that’s best for me, it’s an area I gotta grow in. So this afternoon when Nick pushed me out the door and was like - get out of here plzzzz - I walked to my favorite cafe and ordered a thick pastrami sandwich and sat there for a good LONG while before taking a long, peaceful walk in the rain to wrap up the afternoon. Note to self: stop being such a control freak and go be by yourself sometimes.

#AlignPartner I left off a few weeks ago sharing a #AlignPartner I left off a few weeks ago sharing about how taking @alignprobiotic regularly has improved my digestive regularity.  And I’m still taking them! I’ve permanently added Align 24/7 Digestive Support* into the roundup of supplements I take before bed (prenatal, vitamin D, choline & DHA - all which help keep me healthy while breastfeeding) so I can keep seeing the benefits.  Just because you see benefits, doesn’t mean you should stop taking your probiotic. Keep taking Align daily (under the supervision and recommendation of your health care provider of course) to keep seeing the benefits!  I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - one of my favorite parts of Align probiotics is that they don’t need refrigeration AND they come in a convenient little blister pack that has the days labeled. It’s the little things people! #MyAlignGuutJourney #guthealth  *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

I realized it was going to be a long, hot afternoo I realized it was going to be a long, hot afternoon (91 and muggy in MAY 🤯) when a toddler nap was refused and a baby nap was cut wildly short ....so my tired mom brain pulled out two plastic storage bins, filled them up with soap & hose water and striped ‘em down naked in the yard. Two hours later, it was almost time for an early dinner and I had magically been able to sit for most of that time and we already had baths checked off the list. 👍🏻 I’m archiving this idea for my future self, hope it helps another tired mama out.
#AlignPartner I left off a month ago sharing about #AlignPartner I left off a month ago sharing about getting better at doing the basics to care for myself which included taking my supplements and @alignprobiotic regularly.  Probiotics take time to work so I wanted to give it a full month to see the full effects of @alignprobiotic. So here are my honest thoughts: it took a few weeks to notice any differences, but near the end of the month I did notice some changes in my digestive balance - even while traveling! I’m not someone who experiences occasional gas, bloating or abdominal discomfort frequently enough to notice a difference, so I don’t feel like I can comment on how well Align works for those benefits.  All in all though, taking @alignprobiotic was a positive experience and I really appreciated how the capsules don’t need to be stored in the fridge, making it convenient to take them with me anywhere #MyAlignGuutJourney #guthealth  *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Where we will spend a good majority of our summer. Where we will spend a good majority of our summer. Because the swampy VA summer has already begun (it’s in the low 90s today 🥵 lord help) and creeks are our retreat - not only from the heat but also from the noisy world. I need this just (if not more) than they do! We’ll be at the splash pads and pools too, but the quietness of the creek...my mental health is so about it. And it’s hours of play for them! Win win.  A couple things to note: this scene also included a few toddler reminders on finding another direction to throw rocks instead of at his brother - so not all is serene 🤪 and also, yes I am now that mom who buys the same clothing for both kids bc it keeps things simple & i think i kinda like it too 🤷🏻‍♀️
Things I love about midwifery among many: the appo Things I love about midwifery among many: the appointments, no matter how long, feel so unhurried. 
Just walked in from an appointment with my midwife because I was due for a Pap test + an overall wellness visit. My last pap was during my first trimester with Cal which feels like a jillion years ago, but it’s only actually been three years. Life changes so fast! Pre-baby life feels like a whole other life.  I’m wayyyy overdue for a visit to my PCP bc I’ve been under OBGYN or midwifery care for the majority of the past three years while having babies, but I am pretty good with keeping up with my paps. It seems women often think they need pap and/or HPV testing way more frequently than they do (and providers sometimes perform these tests more frequently than necessary - remember more testing doesn’t always mean better outcomes!)  So if you need it, here’s a quick little reminder on this chilly spring Friday afternoon on how often you need this testing (these are the recommendations from ACOG)  Women aged 21–29 years should have a Pap test alone every 3 years. HPV testing is not recommended.  Women aged 30–65 years should have a Pap test and an HPV test (aka co-testing) every 5 years (preferred). It also is acceptable to have a Pap test alone every 3 years.  If you get abnormal results, this testing frequency could change - but for healthy women with normal results, you actually don’t need testing as frequently as you might think. Which is great news for those of you who hate the speculum.  Ok, off to finish up some things on the to-do list (including cleaning this kitchen) during nap time and then come 5 o’clock, crack an IPA with our neighbors 🍻
#AlignPartner Over the past seven months since bec #AlignPartner Over the past seven months since becoming a mom of two, caring for myself has gotten shoved to the back burner. And it's been a challenge to make it a priority. My routine-resistant personality has upsides and downsides when it comes to motherhood. So I'm starting small this year with a consistent bedtime routine that includes taking my supplements and @alignprobiotic and hoping as that becomes consistent, my mornings will naturally shift too.  In short my bedtime currently goes like this….jammies & face care when putting the babies to bed. Before I go to bed (anytime between 9pm and 12am...) I’ll pump, take my supplements and fill my water. Then I go upstairs and brush my teeth. And then get in bed. The kicker: 70% of the time I find myself finishing up tasks on my phone IN BED. I hate this habit.  Back to supplements. This is something I have been able to stick with. On top of fish oil, my prenatal, choline and vitamin D, I recently added @AlignProbiotic 24/7 Digestive Support*§ to see if it helps with abdominal discomfort and regularity because when I don’t drink coffee or am traveling that can get thrown off.  I’ll be taking it every day for the next 28 days since it takes TIME for our bodies to adjust to probiotics - and I'll be taking you guys along with me as I share my honest thoughts. Many people think if they don’t see changes within the first 7-10 days then the probiotic isn’t working, but that’s not the case. I’m giving myself more than just a week or two and instead a full month to see the full benefits. I’ll keep you posted over the next month.

We had an AFTERNOON today. Toddler didn’t care f We had an AFTERNOON today. Toddler didn’t care for a nap. Putting baby down was harder than I wanted it to be. Miraculously, I had a moment of clarity as I was covered in tiny humans and decided I wasn’t doing the nap battle thing a on 60 degree, gorgeous, sunny spring day 🙅🏻‍♀️ so I piled both babies into the car half naked, opened the sun roof, put on white noise for them and an audio book for me and drank a kombucha as I drove a meal to a postpartum mama. Thirty five minutes later we had a sleeping baby and a toddler who at least had a rest. Baby transferred without waking HALLELUJAH and although my toddler didn’t nap today (lord help) at least we got soaked in breezy sunshine 😎🤘🏻💆🏻‍♀️
We veered from our usual Friday night homemade piz We veered from our usual Friday night homemade pizza (minus the dough, we leave that to @albemarlebakingco) because we are eating pizza tomorrow with some friends - instead I called my mom and asked her how she makes her chicken fingers and we fried up a big ole batch of chicken nugs 🙌🏻🤤 along with a sheet pan full of sweet potato fries and a simple arugula salad dressed with parmesean, olive oil and s&p. Oh and my moms honey mustard recipe for dipping. It’s SO DANG GOOD.  Over the past 6ish months we’ve been practicing (and practicing and practicing bc it doesn’t come naturally) unplugging from technology and slowing down and resting and just being for one day a week. Some call it Shabbat. Some call it Sabbath. Maybe you call it something different. All I know is IT IS SO GOOD FOR MY WEARY SOUL and the day I look forward to ALL WEEK. Sundown on Friday to sundown Saturday. Nothing but rest. For us that means hiking (or something outside) and napping and reading and being with friends and eating really good food. And drinking some really good wine or craft beer. Sometimes whiskey. 😛  And because I know I’ll get asked about the chicken finger recipe and also because it’s too good not to share and Momma Coale said I could, here ya go:  Cut chicken breast into thin strips or small pieces (I prefer nug size bc the breading to chicken ratio is perfection). Salt and pepper those babies really well. Then dredge them in all purpose flour, then egg, then panko - just like you would bread anything else. Then fry them up in a light oil - I use avocado oil because that’s our everyday oil. You could also use canola or peanut oil. Just fill a pan with an inch or so of oil on medium high heat. They only take 2-3 minutes per side. You can always temp them to make sure they are at least 165 degrees F to really make sure they are done. Dunk in all the sauces and enjoy!  Happy weekend!
