Weekly meal plan tips and tricks!

Make these balsamic roasted tomatoes first before making the toast
To make the perfect warm hard-boiled egg, You just boil a pot of water, put the egg in and boil it for 9 minutes. After that time, drain the water, briefly run under cold water, peel and enjoy!

To save on prep time, you can buy pre-made guacamole or pico de gallo for burger toppings.

Make a batch of these and bring them to a new Mom to keep in the freezer.
When you’re shredding the zucchini, be sure to squeeze out the excess liquid so the burritos do not get soggy.

Before I make this sandwich, I like to make a large batch of my quick pickled Asian vegetables in these jars.
The make spicy mayonnaise by simply combining mayonnaise and something like a Sriracha sauce.

You don’t want too much liquid in this recipe, but you want just enough to make sure the granola sticks together and then forms clumps.
This recipe is so easy that you really can’t mess it up! You can use syrup, honey, whatever oils you want, any toppings/mix-ins, just follow the ratios in the recipe.
Pack the granola up in a Weck jar (or other similar air tight large jar or sealable freezer safe bag), tie a ribbon on and give it as a gift! You can even get silly and decorate the jar like a reindeer for the holidays (quick antlers, a red nose and some googley eyes). Plus, the amazing Weck jar is part of the gift; I use mine all the time!
If you’re adding chocolate as one of your toppings, add it when there is only 5 minutes left in the oven otherwise the chocolate will burn (<- game changing tip for making chocolate granola).

This is a gluten free (make-ahead) breakfast idea
To freeze the frittata, allow frittata to cool after being baked. Slice into pieces and cover entire baking dish with aluminum foil, or divide pieces into individual containers. Warm for 2 minutes to enjoy!
