There’s nothing better than a 5-minute, single-serve dessert that is both vegan and paleo friendly. Make this Raspberry Banana Soft Serve with Chocolate Swirl for a guilt-free treat!

There's nothing better than a 5 minute dessert that is both vegan and paleo friendly. Make this Raspberry Banana Soft Serve with Chocolate Swirl for a guilt-free treat!

Breakfast, dessert, a snack, lunch. This can be whatever the heck you want it to be because the ingredients involved are whole foods AND there is absolutely no added sugar, other than the sweetness from the banana.

Talk about an all-star recipe!

I wanted to make something pink and festive for the upcoming holiday…which is actually the day Blake and I officially became “boyfriend and girlfriend.”

Want to know how it happened? Well- we had been dating for about a month and he planned a Valentine’s dinner date at a farm to table restaurant in Minneapolis called, In Season. We got a gorgeous 5-course meal fully equipped with a bottle of wine. I can’t remember exactly what we were talking about (probably the oatmeal bar I planned on opening…never happened), but I remember stopping in the middle of the conversation and saying…”so, umm…I think I’m going to call you my boyfriend now.” His response- “Good, because I’ve been calling you my girlfriend for about 2 weeks.” Classy Blakester.

And that’s how it happened. 

Ingredients for Raspberry Banana Soft Serve with Chocolate Swirl

  • bananas, frozen
  • raspberries, frozen
  • almond milk
  • cocoa/cacao powder
  • maple syrup
  • water

Wanna know why he’s still a keeper? Because he asks me to make him banana soft serve instead of ice cream. Because he eats quinoa and can pronounce it right. Because he’s my #1 Fit Foodie supporter. Because he loyal and kind and fun and a realist and looks really good with a beard (which I think is HOT). 

Don’t ask where all the sap came from because I just type what I think

I guess I was thinking about Blake during this one …probably because our condo is a wreck from the backsplash he just put up. You see, we haven’t been home to 100% clean up, so there is a giant pile of supplies (including a wet saw) in the living room. I honestly can’t complain because it looks so good! The man is meticulous. Stay tuned for a before and after post! 

There's nothing better than a 5 minute dessert that is both vegan and paleo friendly. Make this Raspberry Banana Soft Serve with Chocolate Swirl for a guilt-free treat!

I LOVE banana soft serve. 

Banana soft serve of all kinds. With fruit, with chocolate, plain…you name it! It’s my saving grace because I’m an ice cream addict, but I know what’s in ice cream so I try to limit myself to only eating the real stuff every so often.

I think I almost broke my wrist getting this shot. #Ididitforthephoto

Yah that’s a real hashtag…look it up. You’ll prolly find only posts from Davida and I. We speak the truth.

Pick up some fresh berries and make this delicious healthy berry crisp that’s made with real food, 100% whole grains, and tons of flavor!

I had the pleasure of spending the last week with my parents in Cleveland for a little family visit. My parents moved from my home town of New Berlin, Wisconsin 3 years ago to the Cleveland area for my dad’s job. It’s always interesting going “home” because it’s not really where I grew up at all! My mom and dad are really fun people and 2 of my best friends. 

This time around we made our classic trip to Ohio City to go to the Westside Market. If you follow me on Snapchat (fitfoodiefinds), you will have seen an inside look of how amazing this market is. Minneapolis has great farmer’s market, but the Westside Market has the most amazing amount of meat and specialty food vendors I’ve ever seen! We picked up some delicious Sweet Italian Ground Pork for my mom’s delicious spaghetti and some shish kebab meet. Nomz. The parents and I also made a visit to Headlands State Park, which is right along Lake Erie. One of my Cleveland blogger friends (Hey Jessie!) was teaching a PiYo class on the beach. YES PLEASE. The mom and I got our workouts on and Daddio took teh dogs for a walk. 

Twas a great trip, but weird to be “home” without my siblings. One of the things I made while at home was this delicious berry crisp with berries we got from the market. I modified my Apple Plum Crisp (favorite FFF dessert EVER) by pretty much just changing the fruit. 

Pick up some fresh berries and make this delicious healthy berry crisp that’s made with real food, 100% whole grains, and tons of flavor!

Ingredients for Lightened-Up Berry Crisp

  • strawberrie
  • blueberries
  • honey
  • orange juice
  • almond meal
  • oats
  • almond meal
  • brown sugar
  • butter
  • coconut oil

This dessert was made on Father’s day because my Daddio love dessert…especially a la mode.

Speaking of Father’s Day and a la mode…who else LOVES DAIRY QUEEN CAKE?! I know the #SummerSWEATSeries is happening right now, but this girl can’t pass up a dad worth celebrating. 

Pick up some fresh berries and make this delicious healthy berry crisp that’s made with real food, 100% whole grains, and tons of flavor!

Crisps are actually THE BEST summertime dessert EVER. 

Confession: I usually eat the leftovers for breakfast with a scoop of Greek yogurt on top. #sorrynotsorry

Gluten Free Sausage Pizza Pasta

by Leave a Comment

Gluten Free Sausage Pizza Pasta

Guys. This dish is so easy you’re going to scream for joy! All you really need are 4 simple ingredients: brown rice noodles (or normal noodles if you aren’t a GFer), diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and Italian sausage.

The spices and vino give added flavor, but if you don’t have them it’s not the end of the world because the Italian sausage has so much flavor it’s like sausage pizza in pasta form. 

This reminds me of my Grandma Marie. She is a pizza making machine…and sausage has always been a favorite of mine! Simple ingredients make the best of dishes and that’s exactly what this is!

I wasn’t going to add cheese….but what’s a pizza without cheese? Plus- Grandma would insist!

The more mozzarella the better.  

Gluten Free Sausage Pizza Pasta made with brown rice noodles and homemade meat sauce.

TJ’s makes a new Gluten Free Rice based pasta with quinoa in it. I swear you can not tell a difference between this gfree pasta and normal gluten-filled pasta. 

The italian sausage I got from a local indoor farmer’s market in Solon, OH called Miles Market. They had lots of great organic produce and a pretty big meat section! Love shopping local.

  • basil
  • parsly

  • salt and pepper to taste
  • red wine
  • pasta

Back to the pasta. For the sauce I used two main pizza sauce ingredients: diced tomatoes and tomato sauce. My mom had some red vino opened, so a drip of that went into it as well!

Okay this stuff is just as good, if not better, reheated. I am a HUGE fan of leftovers, especially Italian leftovers so DO NOT throw away your extra pasta. Stick it in a tupperware for the next days lunch or dinner (or breakfast if you’re adventurous).

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry

by Leave a Comment

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry

I eat stir fry at least one a week. I was looking back in the FFF archives and it appears that I haven’t posted a stir fry recipe since 2011. $@!*#!($????  I thought about it for a awhile and concluded that: it’s a challenge.

Taking photos of stir fry is a challenge. I just haven’t been able to nail the right composition. Well 2014 is all about challenges, stepping outside of my comfort zone, and doing it.

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry

Have you ever had 365 Short Grain Brown Rice from Whole Foods? OH EM GEE. This is my ALL TIME FAVORITE. It is the most perfectly sticky brown rice and perfectly sticky brown rice makes me happy.

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry
Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry

I used a few of my favorite flavors for my this Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry recipe.

  • Hoison Sauce
  • All-Natural Ketchup (low sugar if possible) 
  • Soy Sauce (low sodium)
  • Sriracha
  • Honey
  • Garlic
  • Chili Pepper Flakes

If you are gluten free- all of these products can be purchased CERTIFIED gluten free. Because I am not strict gluten free, I use brands that are not certified g/f and I am okay with that! This doesn’t necessarily mean that they have wheat in the ingredient list, rather that they are produced at a plant where other products have wheat in them. I just wanted to bring this to your attention 

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry

Check ou these gawgeous red chili pepper flakes. My grandma and grandpa made them and gave Blake and I a jar for Chirstmas! #bestpresentever 

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry

For my veggies I kept things simple: yellow onion, pea pods, and broccoli. All (so) fresh (and so clean clean).

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry

Save Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large chicken breasts
  • 1/2 medium yellow onion
  • 2 large heads of broccoli
  • 3 cups pea pods
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic (or more)
  • 2 tablespoons hoison sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes (add more if you like spicy or add less/omit if you like mild)
  • 1 cup short grain brown rice
  • 2 cups water

Instructions

  1. Begin by preparing brown rice. In a medium size pot, bring 1 cup of short grain brown rice and 2 cups of water to a rolling boil. Once boiling, turn to low heat and cover. Let simmer until water has dissolved. Fluff with a fork.
  2. While the rice is cooking, begin prepping and cooking stir fry. First, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan or wok to medium/high heat. Next, prepare the stir fry sauce. In a small bowl, mix together garlic, hoison sauce, ketchup, soy sauce, sriracha, honey, and red chili pepper flakes.
  3. Next, evenly slice chicken breast. I like to cut mine thin, so that it cooks faster. Prep veggies by dicing onions and cutting broccoli into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Place chicken breast onto pan and sautee, flipping chicken about every 30 seconds. Once the chicken is almost cooked all the way through, add the veggies. Sautee for about 30 seconds and then cover for 3-5 minutes. By covering the dish, the veggies with steam themselves and cook faster.
  5. Finally add in sauce and sautee for a few more minutes so that everything is evenly coated.
  6. Serve over a bed of short grain brown rice.
