How to Spring Clean Your Diet

April 1, 2023 by the thoughtful spoon

Photo by Alison Marras on Unsplash Spring has officially sprung and it's time to reset and start fresh! It's the time of year where you can open the windows, let in some fresh air and get organized! They say the most successful way to tackle spring cleaning is to focus on one area at a time and I find it's the same methodology when cleaning up your diet! To start, focus in on each meal. What are your go-to's for Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and any in-betweens? What are you drinking throughout the day? How often do you eat out? What's currently in your pantry or refrigerator? How can you make healthier swaps or eliminate processed foods all together? Eating clean may seem overwhelming, but it's actually really easy once you get in the ...

Simple Whole30 Approved Zucchini Beef Enchiladas

January 14, 2022 by the thoughtful spoon

January Whole30 is well underway and this time around I felt more prepared and ready than ever! In part, because this is my 4th time participating in this program, but more so because there are so many great Whole30 endorsed products on the market now. I was first introduced to Siete Foods through one of my favorite food bloggers, TheDefinedDish. I love their cassava flour tortillas and their grain-free tortilla chips are unreal. So you could imagine my pure delight when I found their taco seasoning and enchilada sauce in WholeFoods AND they both had the Whole30 stamp of approval! Pre-packaged taco seasoning is one of those foods, that surprisingly has a lot of hidden ingredients. When I did my first Whole30 and started ...

Pregnancy Diet

December 4, 2019 by the thoughtful spoon

26 week bumpDisclaimer: While this worked for me, I'm not a certified nutritionist, so would always encourage you to talk to your doctor or seek a professional opinion if you're looking for more in-depth advice. Over the past few years, I’ve become much more conscious about eating real, whole foods; so when I began my research on preparing for pregnancy and a well-balanced, healthy diet kept popping up, I already felt somewhat prepared. I still listened to podcasts and read more on what exact nutrients I needed to ensure I was incorporating them into my day to day regimen, because diet is SO critical to fetal development. I focused on including good fats, lean proteins, and carbohydrates low on the glycemic index, along with foods ...

Refined Sugar Free Apple Crisp

November 13, 2019 by the thoughtful spoon

These past few weeks have been quiet in the Reynolds household as we gear up for the Holiday's ahead and as temperatures drop, I am all about staying in, cozying up and hibernating. This past weekend as it hit a low of 35° in Brooklyn, Tim and I did just that. I recipe tested, we cleaned the apartment, snuggled with Summit and caught up on the newest season of Jack Ryan (love me some John Krasinski). One of the recipes I've been dying to test is this gluten free, refined sugar free apple crisp. Apple crisps are hands down one of my favorite desserts, so coming up with a 'cleaner' version has been on my list for some time. I first tested the topping for this to add to Simple Mill's Pumpkin Bread mix, in this Pumpkin Chocolate Crumb ...

My ‘Diet’ Philosophy

January 16, 2019 by the thoughtful spoon

As I begin to share more here on the blog, I wanted to first take a step back to give you insight into my thoughts and philosophies around health and wellness, in general. To start, I decided to focus on diet, as I’m a true believer that both what and how we eat directly correlate to our overall well-being. While there are definitely other factors that come into play such as mental health, relationships, and our levels of physical activity; I’ve noticed that for me personally, diet seems to reign supreme. When I'm eating 'good', I feel 'good' which positively affects all aspects of my life.  ...
