I get asked a lot of different questions when it comes to how to eat healthy during pregnancy, or when trying to conceive. One of my favorite recipes to really, not only enjoy for its taste but for its nutritional value is this Charred Kale and Tahini salad!
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsps Lime Juice
- 2 tbsps Tahini
- 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil (divided)
- 1/2 cup Cilantro (roughly chopped)
- 1/4 tsp Sea Salt
- 1 tbsp Water
- 4 cups Kale Leaves (stem removed, roughly torn)
- 2 tsps Sesame Seeds (toasted)
- 1 Blood Orange (peeled, roughly chopped into segments)
- 2 tbsps Pumpkin Seeds (optional)
Instructions:
- In a blender or food processor, add the lime juice, tahini, 3/4 of the oil, cilantro, salt and water. Blend until smooth and creamy and the sauce is a nice pale green color.
- Heat a cast-iron pan over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the remaining oil and half the kale. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1 minute. Continue cooking while tossing the kale around until it is lightly charred. Remove and repeat the process until all of the kale is lightly charred.
- Add the kale to a plate and drizzle with the tahini dressing, top with sesame seeds, orange segments and pumpkin seeds, if using. Enjoy!

This is a delicious weeknight dinner that is super easy to throw together and it has a little kick to it, which I love!
Ingredients:

- 1/4 cup Shallot (chopped)
- 3 1/2 cups Water
- 2 cups Canned Coconut Milk
- 1 tbsp Thai Red Curry Paste
- 2 cups Brown Rice Penne

Instructions:

Notes: this red curry paste is one that doesn’t have too many ‘bad’ ingredients, a lot of the ones in stores are NO. If you can’t find one that doesn’t have a bunch of added sugar you can do chili powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, garlic salt and some paprika - with a little bit of gluten-free soy sauce (TamarI).
This light, refreshing citrus treat is perfect for cooling you down even on the hottest summer days while satisfying that sweet tooth. With only a few ingredients, it’s simple to make and incredibly delicious!
This recipe makes two servings.

4 cups frozen watermelon cubes
¾ cup whipped coconut cream, homemade or store bought
