This recipe was put together in Rachele's kitchen based off of a craving she was having for a creamy tomato dish. Feel free to get creative with this one, add in other fresh herbs or any protein of your choice. A great way to use some fresh tomatoes in the late summer.

This is one of Rachele's FAVORITE crockpot dishes. It is so full of flavor and simple to make. This ropa vieja pairs wonderful with some spicy slaw or cilantro lime cauli rice. This shredded meat is easy to make, yet tastes gourmet AND its rich in flavor, all while staying packed full of fresh veggies and spices.

We love this meal because it is easy to prepare, presents well and tastes delicious. It is easy to prep ahead of time and bake after a busy day of work. It's also packed with nutrients and a perfect way to use up some bell peppers!

BEEF STROGANOFF

This stroganoff has a nice healthy spin! We have it creamy using sour cream and kefir, and instead of classic noodles, we have it with nutrient rich "noodles" - what more do we need to say? We use "zoodles" in this recipe, but feel free to use spaghetti squash or any noodles your prefer - or try using mashed cauli. If you end up with extra sauce, you can freeze or whip up more zoodles to soak the goodness up. London broil is a less expensive piece of meat which cooks up well when cooked in recipes like this. Feel free to use any steak cut you prefer.

CROCK POT CARNITAS

This is a flavorful and easy to make dish great for a busy day if you plan ahead. Simply do the first step in the morning, then just before dinner you finish it off and have delicious carnitas meat to enjoy. We LOVE this as tacos, with cauli rice or over some spicy slaw.

CREAMY BROCCOLI, KALE, AND WHITE BEAN SOUP

May 3, 2020 by Rachele at VFit Studio 1 Comment

This tasty creamy soup is thickened with yogurt, rather than cream, which helps add probiotics and a nice tang to this yummy meal in a bowl! We love the combo of broccoli and white beans here, and you'll see why once you take that first taste!

COLLARD GREEN CHICKEN ENCHILADAS

May 3, 2020 by Rachele at VFit Studio Leave a Comment

This may seem like a far stretch, but we really love this unique spin on a Mexican favorite. Collard greens make excellent "tortillas" and allow you to make a nutrient dense version of your favorite enchiladas. This recipe pairs great with cauli rice or spicy slaw and some whole beans.
