Creative Summer Salads

Health, Nutrition, Nutrition with Danielle, Power Up Approved, Power Up Program / Deanna Simone

In the summer months it’s nice to lighten up meals with a salad. I love both leafy green salads as well as hearty grain and vegetable salads. If I’m making a meal of a salad I like to add a grain, nuts and seeds, cheese, or a vegetable such as sweet potato. If it’s a side dish I’ll keep it light with lots of leafy greens, fresh herbs and maybe a fruit such as strawberries. There’s actually quite a bit in season right now which would make for some creative summer salads.

Let’s talk about snacks. I’ve got a hungry little lady on my hands at home now and I try as much as possible to stay away from packaged snacks. Having said that, I always have a bag of Love Child Ducks in my diaper bag for when we’re on the go and I haven’t packed anything.

Pea and Pancetta Salad and Strawberry Mini Cheesecakes for Father’s Day

Father’s Day is coming up and in my family we like to celebrate with an afternoon by the pool and a delicious meal. Typically we do a grilled meat and then a couple outdoor friendly sides. Grain and vegetable salads are always great because they can handle dressing well even when dressed in advance. Potato salad is usually our go-to but this year we are going to switch it up with a pea and pancetta salad. The fresh mint in this salad is the selling feature for me. It’s refreshing and so complimentary to the salty pancetta.

Barley and Asparagus Salad Recipe

Danielle, Food, General, Nutrition with Danielle, Power Up Approved, Power Up Program, PowerUp / Deanna Simone

I love that we are entering into the season of plenty with local fruits and vegetables! Asparagus is one of my favourite vegetables. It’s versatile and particularly nutritious at this time of year. Asparagus has a unique mineral profile that makes it an effective natural diuretic, which promotes detoxification and cleansing. It also contains an abundance of folate, which is great for expecting mommas.

Earth Hour has snuck up again. For those who need a reminder, it’s an hour where you disconnect from electronics. And perhaps dust off a few board games. It began in 2007 as a grassroots global movement, inspiring people to act on climate change and protect the planet. My wife is somewhat more “crunchy granola”

Smoothies 101: Tips for Making Great Smoothies

Breakfast Recipes, Danielle, Miscellaneous Recipes, Nutrition with Danielle, Power Up Approved, Power Up Program / Deanna Simone

First thing in the morning, I don’t have much time for making breakfast. The idea of preparing a veggie omelette, along with a side of hash browns, whole-grain toast and a glass of freshly-squeezed OJ, is nice, but it’s not realistic when we’re running late… Which is most weekday mornings.

Smoothies are Quick, Delicious and Nutritious
So my ‘go to’ breakfast involves dropping a few carefully-selected items into the blender, hitting the button, and whoosh! A delicious and nutritious meal in a glass.
