Another easy summer recipe featuring zucchini! And

Another easy summer recipe featuring zucchini! And these Italian beef zucchini boats only require 5 ingredients! I'm all about the simple meals in the summer and this one really couldn't be easier. Simply sauté ground beef until browned and then add in diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and pasta sauce. Stuff mixture into your zucchini boats, cover, and bake until zucchini is cooked through! It's a great way to use up all the zucchinis in season right now too!⁠ If you tolerate dairy, some cheese sprinkled on top would be delish.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Recipe is on @eatthegains, just search zucchini!⁠⠀⁠⠀ https://eatthegains.com/whole30-italian-beef-zucchini-boats/⁠⠀⁠⠀ #eatthegains⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ #mealprepideas #iifymwomen #iifymrecipes #macrocounting #feedfeed #glutenfreerecipes #glutenfreeliving #foodforfuel #easyrecipes #makesmewhole #iifymfood #spoonfeed⁣⁣ #healthyrecipe #mindfuleating #paleorecipes #yougottaeatthis #eatrealfood #foodfreedom #whole30recipes #whole30 #eatwholefoods ⁠#nutritioncoach #nutritioncoaching #ketorecipes #flexibledieting #healthyish

When pizza night and zucchini season come together

When pizza night and zucchini season come together, you get zucchini pizza boats! We love pizza night at our house, but I don't always need the real deal (Michael will beg to differ lol).⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ These guys are made with just 7 ingredients - zucchini, sausage, pizza sauce, cheese, and a few spices - then baked in the oven until the zucchini softens some and the cheese is melted. So good and so easy and will totally satisfy your pizza craving while getting in some veggies!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠Recipe linked in my stories and on @eatthegains, just search pizza!⁠⠀ https://eatthegains.com/zucchini-pizza-boats/⁠⠀ #eatthegains⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ #ketorecipes #zucchiniboats #pizzanight ⁠#mealprep #iifymwomen #iifymrecipes #macrocounting #flexibledieting #trackingmacros #feedfeed #foodforfuel #easyrecipes #makesmewhole #iifymfood #spoonfeed⁣⁣ #healthyrecipe #allfoodsfit #balancednotclean #yougottaeatthis #eatrealfood #foodfreedom #mindfuleating #goodeats #healthyish #nutritioncoach #nutritioncoaching #trackingmacros

Two years of a natural & healthy period!! I got of

Two years of a natural & healthy period!! I got off hormonal birth control in 2008 and didn’t have a regular period for 10 years (nonexistent for 5-6 years of that). While I was never diagnosed with anything, I now know it was from over exercising & drastically under eating. Running 14 miles/day, going to softball practice, & playing intramural sports while eating some yogurt, granola, fruit, and a salad doesn't add up. And maybe some PB so I wouldn’t go to bed starving. This month marks 2 years of having my cycling!! I would never imagine that I would be so excited for this a few years ago. To be honest, I liked not having my period for a while. The thing is, your cycle is extremely important - it is your monthly report card. When you don’t have a regular cycle (being on hormonal birth control is not a regular cycle & a fake bleed), your body is telling you something. It is shutting down that function because it does not feel safe and uses that energy for more important things, like breathing and digestion. While everyone is different, here are things that I did to help: - eating more food, especially carbs and fat, and stopped restricting foods - making sure I was eating enough by tracking my macros. When you under eat for 10 years, it’s really hard to break that mindset and tracking macros has helped me so much in that, along with my food freedom - working with someone (TY @lauriechristineking) - decreasing my exercise, especially HIIT - seed cycling - listening to my body - reducing stress - educating myself (period repair manual is a great book) - supplementation - telling myself this is what is best for my body. Sure eating more food sounds easy, but what goes on in-between your ears is HARD. Knowing that while I used to be 20-25# lighter, that wasn’t my healthiest or best self I’m now happy to say I pretty much have a symptomless period every 28-32 days. Going into WAY more detail on the blog as IG captions are too short! Also, using organic tampons has been a game changer for me (I have a story highlight saved about it).
