Kristen Reynolds' Fall Favorites! OMBE Center

From the desk of Kristen Reynolds, PT, DPT, PMA-CPT?

Although I?m not an intense football fan like my loved ones, I love the feeling of Football Sundays! Why? Because it brings my family and friends together in a venue that is about relaxation and sharing food! And with relaxation comes the opportunity to spend time in the kitchen doing some ?clean cooking.?

Before walking down to the local football stadium to watch my nephews play, I make hot chocolate for my travel mug. It is easy to remember or modify for taste, but for one serving, I typically combine 12 oz unsweetened almond milk, 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 tbsp agave syrup, 2 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp vanilla, and a dash of sea salt (1/8 tsp cayenne optional) into a pot and warm over medium heat. Stir constantly with a whisk. Pour into travel mug and enjoy!

After the games, it?s time to prep lunch, dinner, and dessert. Check out these pins for some of my recent fall favorites:

Chicken Stew with Butternut Squash and Quinoa

?

Spaghetti Squash Spaghetti & Italian Paleo Meatballs

?

?

Pumpkin-Carrot Bars with Cream Cheese Frosting

(I modify this one a bit oat flour, stevia, organic pumpkin and a greek yogurt substitute recipe for cream cheese swirl from www.cupcakeproject.com)

?

Enjoy your root vegetables this season and happy eating!
