Want to sneak more nutrients into your smoothies? Add cauliflower rice! Really! It boosts the nutritional content, creates a creamy texture, and we promise you can't even taste it.

Most of us are juggling so many responsibilities, it can often be a tremendous feat to make a meal, let alone pay attention to all of the specific nutrients it contains. I’ve pretty much never had lunch and thought, “Oh yes, definitely got my vitamin C and omega 3s in that one!” I’m like, “Yay! That was a good meal” and move on. Though I don’t keep track every nutrient, I definitely make it a point to have protein and produce in every single meal.

I add spinach and cauliflower rice to every single smoothie! Spinach is a pretty common smoothie ingredient, but I totally understand if you’re raising your eyebrows at the cauliflower rice. I use the frozen cauliflower rice and add ¼-⅓ cup. I promise you can’t taste it, and it gives smoothies an amazing creamy texture!

I turn leftovers into omelet filling. I love stuffing omelets with whatever sautéed veggies we have left over from dinner. It cuts down on prep time, waste, and gives these sad veggies another chance at life. I add tons of chopped veggies to my Bolognese sauce – mushrooms, bell pepper, carrots, and zucchini are my favorites. I’ll also do this with soup: tons of veggies, herbs, chicken, and broth into the Instant Pot, and it makes a heartwarming soup in 20 minutes.

I serve fruit as a dessert. One of my all-time favorite desserts is to chop an apple and microwave it for 2 minutes with cinnamon. When it’s done, add some chocolate chips on top or a tablespoon of peanut butter. So good!
