Simple, Colorful Mediterranean Orzo Salad

Food

To be honest, now that we are entering fall, it doesn’t quite seem appropriate to share this Mediterranean orzo salad with y’all! This chilled orzo salad is so tasty and colorful, so it feels like more of a summer dish. But considering it doesn’t actually get cool here in Charlotte until later, it’s basically still late summer here. Plus this…

Theo’s Nursery Tour

Home· Motherhood

After writing my recent post about the DIY Giant Ruler Wall Art, I decided that I should probably share some photos of Theo’s nursery. The idea was to do with a jungle animals theme, but to keep it relatively minimal and simple overall. It all started with finding this cute jungle animals mobile, and we kind of went from there!…

Some of these items I have ordered myself already,…

Easy Roasted Tomato Sauce Using Fresh Tomatoes

Food

This year our garden yielded a lot of tomatoes. I mean a LOT of tomatoes. And honestly, it’s by accident! We had been throwing tomatoes scraps into our compost and we think that some of the seeds from the scraps survived and germinated in our garden beds this year. We have heirloom tomatoes growing (those were actually intentionally planted by…

Catch me putting @fairlife chocolate milk in every Catch me putting @fairlife chocolate milk in every recipe while pregnant 🙂‍↕️

Without toppings, this clocks in at about 7 grams fiber, 12 grams protein, and 16 grams carbs, so it was a perfect bedtime snack for me when I had gestational diabetes!

3-INGREDIENT CHIA SEED PUDDING
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1/2 cup Fairlife chocolate milk
(optional) 2 tablespoons low-carb vanilla Greek yogurt (such as Two Good)

1. Mix the chia seeds and milk together well— cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
2. Remove from fridge and stir well, taking care to break up any clumps
3. Stir in yogurt and, if desired, top with whatever toppings you want (I love fresh raspberries and chocolate chips, granola, mashed cherries, etc) #fibermax #carbconscious #highproteinlowcarb #hyperfixation #pregnancy

BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 2 🌙🏙️ The lesson of the day: BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 2 🌙🏙️

After having GD with my first pregnancy, I am SO relieved to not have to check blood sugars and be monitoring this time around— however, I’m still being mindful and conscious of my carbs, because I do think it’s better for me and baby (but I’m not being quite so restrictive now!!)
