Healthy Pregnancy Recipes!

LittleLunarMouse

Now that it's more important than ever to eat right, do you ladies have any recipes that are healthy and tasty to share? I thought it might be nice to have a collection in one place!

My personal favourite: Brocolli salad!
For the salad: raw Brocolli heads, cranberries, almonds (or any seeds or nuts of your choice! Walnuts are amazing too) cheddar cheese ( or your Favourite cheese) and bacon (which can be left out if you like)
For the dressing: mayo or Greek yogurt, honey (use local honey if you can!), and a little white wine vinegar. That's it! Tasty, healthy, and super easy to make!

This is an amazing recipe, and I've made it a million different ways. Hot sausage crumble, apple chicken sausage, jack, cheddar, mozz, you name it!

These two curries are amazing! Also been simply roasting salmon with a bit of pesto or chilli sauce and having it with steamed broccoli and roasted sweet potatoes.

Mmm all of that sounds so good! Definitely going to have to make that curry!!

Made some killer potato soup last night, it was tasty and perfect for a cozy "winter" night (I live in arizona so I use the word winter loosely lol)

Ha ha! As a breast-feeding mama with morning sickness I am less concerned about any healthy and more concerned about eating at all

I have a good one - I actually modified it from SkinnyTaste.com and it's so, so easy. We made it last night. Takes probably 10 minutes.

Sausage & Escarole One Pot Meal

- 1 lb turkey sausage - removed from casing

- Extra virgin olive oil

- One large package fresh escarole

- 1 cup chicken broth

- Parmesan cheese to garnish (eye ball it)

Cook sausage in oil in large cast iron pot until done. Add escarole and chicken broth. Once the escarole has completely wilted, mix with sausage and remove from heat. Garnish with cheese.

What is an Escerole?

@ijstarr28 - it's a dark leafy green vegetable.

These are delish! Just make sure your goat's cheese is made from pasteurized goat milk! 

Also enjoy these for breakfast, with not so much cheese haha:

I've been eating a lot of lettuce free salads. Using cauliflower, broccoli, grape tomatoes, celery, and snap peas. Bite sized pieces in a bowl with a little Parmesan and vinegar and oil dressing. This may have started with having lots of veggie platter leftovers from Halloween, but those are long gone now.

I'm totally addicted to the cookbook "Full Belly: Good Eats for a Healthy Pregnancy"
