Basic Mamas Kitchen

🌸🌼May is right around the corner and with May comes a new Mama’s Meals Menu🌼🌸

(Say that 5 times fast😜)

This month I’m adding a southwest black bean burger bowl to the menu and I’m excited!

I had this for dinner last night and now I am having it again for lunch.

It does contain egg, so not vegan but it is a great option if you want to try a little less meat in your diet!

I only have 2 Sunday spots left for meal prep in May so if think you want to try a meal prep option that is - slide in to those dms!

✨This is your Monday reminder that YOU can do the HARD things. The BEAUTIFUL things. And The WONDERFUL things.✨

I’m so happy to announce that I received my Precision Nutrition Certification AND my AFPA Pre and Post Natal Certification at the beginning of this year.

I have been a certified personal trainer for over 11 years and certified nutrition specialist through ISSA for 7 but I wanted to take steps to further my fitness education and that’s what I did!

In the middle of a pandemic, divorce, first year of motherhood, while running two businesses and going to school full time, I somehow managed to pull these out of my hat!

So- Don’t let ANYONE tell you what you can and can’t do.

I am so excited to use the knowledge I gained from these courses to bring something special and new to the table!

Stay tuned and Happy Monday!

🥕🥬Toddler Meal + Toddler🥬🥕

I gave this meal to E twice this week.

The first time he barely touched it because he had been snacking all day.

But I KNOW he likes BBQ chicken and potatoes and sometimes even Brussel sprouts.

So I tried again for lunch yesterday and he cleaned his plate!

🥕🥬This is your reminder to keep trying even if they completely reject it the first time! (Or second or third!)🥬🥕

Toddlers, like adults, have things they prefer and that can change from day to day. And some days they are more open to trying new things than other days!

So, when a meal doesn’t go as planned, try not to get upset, make sure they are fed and try again another time!
