DAVIS:
Cozy Hamburger Soup
“This is a great tasting, hearty winter soup that I highly recommend you try out this holiday season! The recipe is from the book ‘Buck Naked Kitchen’ by Kirsten Buck, who is a Holistic Nutritionist here in Winnipeg. I usually double the recipe, because the more leftovers the better! I also highly recommend checking out her book or website for more delicious gluten, grain, and dairy free recipes.”

Easy Meal Prep Sweet Potato Lasagna
“One of my favorite comfort foods is lasagne! This version from Fit Men Cook uses sweet potato between layers instead of noodles, ground turkey and egg whites to bump the protein content, and is awesome to make ahead and throw in the freezer for quick meals. Here’s my Pro-tip: Start to roast any thicker sweet potato slices in the oven while the meat cooks, to make sure they aren’t crunchy in your final lasagne.”

JACQUIE:
Oat and Yogurt Pancakes
“My favourite breakfast food is definitely pancakes, and this recipe is one of my go to’s! Don’t be afraid to make extras, keep them in the fridge and pop them in the toaster in the morning for a quick breakfast! To make them oat pancakes: Sub the brown rice flour for oat flour, by grinding large flake oats in a blender or food processor until it becomes a flour like consistency. To boost the protein: Add a scoop of protein powder into the dry ingredients and add a bit more milk if necessary.”
