Whole Wheat Buttermilk Biscuits
Why do you never see or hear of whole wheat buttermilk biscuits? At least me and my husband haven’t. I told him it must be that regular biscuits are so darn good that who would possibly mess with them?! Me, I guess. I like to try everything with wheat flour at least once. There is…
A Cooking Party
In case you missed the last few posts I’ll give you an update: I made an awesome chili and announced we’re moving to Seattle! I also joined a health challenge and made some homemade baby food! Check out the previous posts if you want to learn more! So a few weeks ago I threw a…
The Best Vegetarian Chili
Before I talk about this recipe, I have to share some exciting news! Nutritious Eats is moving to Seattle, Washington!! We will be there in less than 3 months and will hopefully get settled into our new home right away. When it’s time for a new job in the military it can often be a…
Join the MapMyFitness Quaker Challenge
There is a lot of pressure to get back in shape after having kids. I know this because I am a mother of three kids, ages five and under. We see all the celebrities dropping weight and fitting into their skinny jeans as soon 6 weeks after having their babies. Well I had a baby…

The best part is that as rich as it looks and tastes, the spoonful of cocoa powder only adds 10 calories and zero…
Vegan Month Recap
Boy was the month of January a LONG one. Whether it was because it was the first month in a LONG time that we didn’t have a birthday or Holiday to celebrate…or mabye it was because I was eating vegan. Either way, it was long. So I thought I’d recap how my experience went and…
Homemade Corn Tortillas
Corn or flour? That is the question you’ll be asked at most Mexican restaurants when ordering tortillas. Corn tortillas typically have less calories than flour, but other than that I don’t see any reason to choose them over the puffy, soft, delicious flour ones. Now that I’ve made these, my admiration for the corn fellas…
Black Bean, Corn & Poblano Tacos
I don’t think a recipe like this would have appealed to me as much if I wasn’t eating vegan for the month, but I made it a couple weeks ago and it will definitely stick around in my meal rotation. This can be vegan or vegetarian depending on whether you want the cheese and sour…
