Back In The Cook Of Things

By

When you’re short on kitchen time, Blue Apron makes a great bridge between take out and cooking from scratch. Thanks to Blue Apron for sponsoring this post. 

I remember back to when Mazen first became mobile, crawling around at my ankles and getting into things, I had all kinds of strategies for cooking. I used to make meals in the mornings, I subscribed to a meal planning service, and I wholeheartedly embraced the prep day for that season of life. I prepped every ingredient in little glass bowls, down to the minced garlic, so when it was dinnertime I could throw the food in a skillet or pot and it would nearly cook itself. Now that Birch is mobile, and also getting into EV. ERY. THING. I’m ready to put some of those old practices into place.

He did have fun unboxing the ingredients with me!

Many of you know I have partnered with Blue Apron over the years and truly love the diversity and inspiration that comes from the recipes. (It’s also a whiz to get in and out of the grocery store with a baby when you only need staples because the bulk of your ingredients are coming to your doorstep.) We generally do the 4-person plan so we can have leftovers for lunch, and there are 16 recipes you can choose from there are no surprises. If you haven’t tried Blue Apron for yourself (and itsabouttimeyoudid!) I’m offering $60 in FREE meals for you and your fam.

The first 50 of you to sign up will get $60 off your first 3 weeks of Blue Apron! Click here for more details.

Valid for first-time meal plan subscribers only. Cannot be combined with any other offer. 

Pull up a chair and let’s make a meal together!

Orange & Sweet Chili Chicken

This recipe was a huge hit in our house! It was packed with flavor from the sweet chili sauce to the togarashi seasoning on the finish. (I didn’t know was that was either!) The little white discs are Korean rice cakes called tteok. I had never heard of them, but I LOVED their chewy texture! I also appreciated that this meal was packed with vegetables – generous amounts of broccoli and cabbage.

Let’s cook!

I put Birch down for a nap, turned on a podcast, and got to cookin’ at 10am. It was lovely!

I boiled the tteok for just 3-4 minutes until they were ready. They reminded me of flat dumplings.

I also really appreciated all of these aromatics pre minced for me!! My kitchen smelled delicious.

It made enough to feed a crowd!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
