{smoothie bowl breakfast, 3/3/18}

Here are some things that have been nourishing me lately!

This salt and pepper roast chicken. I have very little experience cooking meat, so when we started eating it regularly, I turned to NYT Cooking and have been loving this simple salt and pepper roast chicken. I’ve been roasting a whole chicken just about weekly and have been keeping it pretty simple like this – except I’ve been stuffing lemon and garlic into the cavity and adding some other seasoning (thyme and turmeric are my favorite so far).

Popsugar Fitness. I know I’m late in discovering this, but I have been loving Popsugar Fitness videos lately, especially the ones using weights. 

Smoothie bowls. See above! I have been obsessed with smoothies for breakfast for a long time, but mostly just during the summer. I have been craving smoothies lately though, so on weekends I’ve been making smoothie bowl creations. My current obsession is: 1 banana (save a little to slice on top), handful of frozen berries, ~1/4 cup hemp seeds, 1 spoonful of peanut butter, 1 spoonful of yogurt, handful of spinach, small splash of almond milk. I’ve been serving it in a bowl, topped with sliced banana, granola and a drizzle of peanut butter.

These dark chocolate hemp energy bites. I crave chocolate all the time, and these energy bites are a perfect way to healthfully satisfy that craving. They are super easy to make and hold up well if not refrigerated all day.
