SPRING IS HERE, and I could not be happier about it!!
One of my favorite ways to make sure I get all my nutrients in is to make a loaded Buddha Bowl like this one! It could not be easier.
Must-haves in my pantry for quick and nutritious meals is pulses!
Have you heard of the term pulses?? They are dry peas, chickpeas, lentils, and beans!
I love them because they are a delicious and healthy way to bulk up ANY meal with protein and fiber! If a batch of cooked pulses arent on your meal-prep list, they need to be!!
Here’s a challenge for y’all: The Half Cup Habit!!
