 Ain’t this a sight for sore eyes! . Simple Eggplant Parmesan (technically mozzarella I guess, there’s no parm on here 🤣) for dinner tonight! . It’s been a while since I’ve found good eggplants at the store, so when I saw two @ladymoonfarms beauts I knew exactly what I was going to make as part of my weekly prep...it’s one of the dishes that gets better after it’s made, we don’t get tired of it at the Pelly household! . I originally found this recipe back in the day as part of the #17daydiet cookbook, the addition of fennel gives a nice flavor to the sauce, and I like to toss some in top for a little crunch too 👌 . Get my go-to adaptation below 👇: . Sauce: . 1 pkg 93/7 Ground Turkey (can also use 99% if desired) 1 Jar Pasta sauce (look for one with minimal added sugar, I like @muirglen) 1 tbsp fennel seeds 3 cloves crushed garlic for extra deliciousness . First, cook the ground turkey and garlic in a large skillet (drain off any fat before adding the sauce), adding the sauce and fennel seeds after its fully cooked. Cover and simmer on low while the eggplant is cooking. . Eggplant🍆: . Cut into 1 inch slices then arrange on a baking sheet sprayed with olive oil. Once on the sheet, spray the tops of the eggplant slices with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper, garlic and onion powder. . Roast in the oven for about 25 minutes at 400F until golden brown and tender. . In a large baking dish sprayed with olive oil, spread a little sauce on the bottom, then layer with eggplant and sauce until you run out (I usually get 3 layers). Top with mozzarella cheese and another sprinkling of fennel seeds. . Bake an additional 15 minutes or until cheese starts to lightly brown, then remove and allow to sit for about 10 minutes before serving! Enjoy! . 🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝 #dinnerisserved #mealprepgamestrong #fitmomscook #goalgetters #wonderfullyfitmom

 Need a convenient recipe that can do double duty for a lunch or dinner addition?
. If so you’ve got to try these super simple Loaded Pizza Egg muffins! . First you’ll need: Preheat your oven to 350F . Next prep the filling ingredients: . 5 baby Bella mushrooms, chopped 1/4 cup red or white onion, diced 3 cups fresh baby spinach, roughly chopped 2 oz @boarshead_official Turkey Pepperoni, chopped into small chunks 1/2 tbsp olive oil 6 grape tomatoes (or 1 Roma tomato) diced . Combine these ingredients in a large skillet and sauté on medium heat until the spinach and mushrooms have wilted down some. . Next take a greased muffin tin and evenly distribute the filling over the 12 cups (mine were about 1/2 full). . Using approximately one cup of egg whites, pour over the filling until about 1/4 inch from the top of the muffin cup. . Top each muffin with 1 tbsp of mozzarella cheese (I used @tillamook 😍) then pop in the preheated oven for about 18-22 minutes, or until the cheese starts to brown slightly. . Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes (they will start to pull away from the edges as they cool-this makes for easier transferring to your prep containers.) . Enjoy right away or move to your meal prep containers for later! . . . . If you get a chance to try these I’d love to hear how you liked them! . . . . 🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕 #pizzapizza #eggmuffins #healthyoptions #newrecipe #wonderfullyfitmom  🎉🍦I scream, you scream, we all scream for ICE CREAM!🍦🎉

. She came willing to learn and ready to work, and after going over her nutrition and tweaking some things, in addition to getting back into a regular training schedule, she’s down ⬇️ 4 lbs and 4 inches after just 13 days! . It’s such a blessing to see my clients progress and meet the goals they’ve set. . The greatest change comes to those who are open to coaching, trust the process, and do the work every day! . Fad or crash diets aren’t the answer. . Hard work, consistency and dedication most definitely are. . While it may be tempting to go “low carb”, Keto, Paleo, or any other “miracle diet” you see all over the internet, often times it’s more beneficial to make practical changes to your current habits in order to see results. . Be open to educating yourself on portion control, meal timing and proper macronutrient balance before doing anything drastic. . More often than not, we shock our bodies initially with sudden change, but falter when we can’t stick to the new way of eating because it’s simply not sustainable for our lifestyle. . Take a rational, focused approach to your journey and you’ll find it’s easier to maintain. . Put in the work one day at a time, make healthier choices, and your body will respond! . If you’d like help with getting a better understanding of your current eating habits and how we can work together to help your body burn more fat, build more muscle, or just improve overall health, shoot me a message! I’m more than happy to help 💙 . . . . . . 🔲▪️🔲▪️🔲▪️🔲▪️🔲▪️🔲▪️🔲▪️🔲▪️🔲 #motivationmondays #clientspotlight #fatlossjourney #mytransphormationstartstoday #teamwonderfullyfit  What area do you struggle with the most on your health and wellness journey?
. For me, it has always been nutrition... . As a huge foodie and lover of all things sweet, my biggest obstacle for a long time remained making the best food choices throughout my day. . One of the ways I’ve found that helps me stay more consistent is spending time every Sunday after church preparing meals ahead for the week. . Not only does it save time in an already busy week, but having a fridge full of prepared meals adds an extra layer of accountability. . Knowing the time and money that has been invested in myself to help reach my goals before hand makes it so much easier to make the right choice. . It takes the thought out of what my next meal will be because its already there ready to go. . No more last minute temptation, or being caught in a pinch due to poor planning. . Invest this food preparation time in yourself before your week starts, and you’ll be surprised how much easier it is to tackle your goals. . . . . I’d love to hear more about your experience with meal prepping, and if you’re new to it or are looking to get started, I’d be happy to help you along your journey!
