I have a little exciting news. I’ve come on board The Eighty Twenty as a recipe contributor. I’ve been a big fan since the beginning and couldn’t be more thrilled! The Eighty Twenty is an awesome online magazine for woman trying to balance a healthy life. There are tons of articles on fitness, books, recipes and general tips to keep on the right track. I shared my Maple Apple Meatballs yesterday! Check them out here.
Since moving back to the Midwest, I definitely miss my delivery foods. When you live in LA, you can get pretty much anything at all times! Sushi craving 11PM on a Sunday. No problem. With the convenience also comes a lot of temptation. After going Paleo, I cut back on my late-night delivers significantly in favor of recreating my favorite dishes at home. I’m a big fan of pretty much any kind of Asian food and flavors. This chow mein is so full of veggies, I didn’t miss the noodles at all! If you couldn’t tell, I’m on a little bit of a spiralizing kick. If you don’t have a spiralizer, go get one now! This is also a pretty good option. It will be your best friend especially if you are a former pasta lover. Serves 4.
