The Gracious Pantry – More Clean Eating Recipes

JenniferM — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 13:10:34 +0000

I don’t know about anyone else, but sometimes it’s hard for me to find clean eating recipes, even in regular “light cooking” magazines. Yes, there’s Clean Eating Magazine, and I am a subscriber, and all of Tosca’s books, which I have (except for the one just released), but I really need to have more options for recipes because sometimes I ...

Since I was asked for my whole wheat pizza dough recipe in the comments section of my How to Make a Healthy Pizza post, I thought I would just post the recipe I use. I found this whole wheat pizza crust recipe online a couple of years ago and it’s what I’ve been using ever since. It’s quick and it’s ... Related posts:

How to Make a Healthy Pizza

JenniferM — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 22:33:28 +0000

In this house, we LOVE pizza, so I make it often, probably two to three times per month. Over the years, I think I’ve perfected one of the best healthy pizzas that doesn’t really taste all that healthy. I mean isn’t that the best feeling – eating something you know is good for you, but it tastes too good to ... Related posts:

Honey-Glazed Carrots

JenniferM — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 21:58:38 +0000

These honey-glazed carrots are not only good for you, but de-li-cious! Carrots are also one of the best veggies to include our diet because they’re loaded with vitamin A, which is a must for healthy eyesight and skin and they also boost immunity. These honey-glazed carrots went over well with my ‘picky eater,’ so that’s always a plus. (She actually ... Related posts:

Very Berry Smoothie

This Very Berry Smoothie is not only delicious but chock full of energy boosting nutrients. I try to drink one of these at least twice a week to get my morning off to a good start. You can use frozen strawberries and raspberries in this, which is what I do in the winter, but if you do, you may want ... Related posts:

How to Use Oats

JenniferM — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 13:47:40 +0000

Even though I really dislike oatmeal, I have been looking into ways to incorporate oats into my daily menus since there is no denying the health benefits of oats. Here are two ways (besides eating oatmeal) that you can use oats: Oatmeal Pancakes I found these to be pretty good, actually. My girls like them and it breaks up the monotony of ... Related posts:

Clean Eating Meals: Thursday, August 13th

JenniferM — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 21:11:43 +0000

When I woke up yesterday morning, I had a craving for banana and peanut butter, so I had one of my favorite foods – a banana and peanut butter sandwich for breakfast…yum! Of course that filled me up for quite a while and so I skipped meal #2 because I just wasn’t hungry at all. Other than that, pretty normal ... Related posts:

Clean Eating Menu: Wednesday, August 12th

JenniferM — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 19:28:51 +0000

I wasn’t really hungry last night at the time I typically have a “bedtime snack,” so you’ll notice only 5 meals yesterday. Sometimes I follow the idea of intuitive eating (only eating when hungry) and sometimes not. If I followed intuitive eating all of the time, I would never eat because I am rarely hungry. Like I’ve said in previous ... Related posts:

Clean Eating Meals: Monday, August 10th

JenniferM — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 16:23:38 +0000

Monday went well except I got up late and had an appointment that was a 50 minute drive one way and if I would’ve taken the time to make an actual breakfast, I would’ve been late. So all I had for breakfast was a banana since I could grab it and go. As far as calories go, I think I ... Related posts:
