Hey y’all! I just remembered that I promised to let you all know a tiny bit of what’s been in my kitchen cabinets and fridge lately (for the soon to be mamas who care). Like I said in the last post, I’ve been keen on being a lot more healthy this trimester now that my love for nutritious food has returned! I feel like baby Potuck is wondering why all the yummy junk food went away. It’s for your own good baby!

So, here goes! :

**I’ve been loving the eggs from Willow Egg Farm in Summertown, TN. I pick them up at the local Whole Foods or Turnip Truck. They’re a family owned farm, and the hens are completely free range. The little hennies can even eat bugs if they want to! MMMmmm…more protein! I literally eat an egg every day. Whether I scramble or boil it! Gotta get that baby it’s protein and good Omegas 🙂

**I have been a big Trader Joe’s fan this pregnancy. It’s inexpensive food for a healthy minded human. My fave’s from there? 

The Fresh HOT salsa. It’s super chunky and is made pretty darn fresh. It goes bad fast, but I eat it faster than that!  I dip thickly cut cucumbers in it a lot these days, and well…tortilla chips too!

I’m loving on almond butter with sea salt. I don’t add much salt to my diet, but for this it’s needed. I hate almond butter without it! I add this on my Ezekiel bread in the morning or dip little baby carrots and celery in it for for a protein filled snack!

And the Cinnamon Raisin Ezekiel bread is my jam! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!

I usually eat these with whatever burger bun I can find that is HUGE and FLUFFY. I am not picky about buns when I eat a burger, probably seeing as I don’t eat them often. I just need them to fit the burger, and not get soggy. Without further adieu …I love these Trader Joe’s Turkey burgs! Nummy!

Onto another Trader Joe’s YUMMY in my tummy snack. These bad boys are a little indulgent. Sometimes I reach for the raw unroasted almonds from TJ’s, but most times, I reach for these…

Steering away from Trader J’s….

THIS might be one of my fave non-guilty preggo foods..

Spark of Life (an awesome nashville based company) that creates raw dishes/desserts has a raw apple pie that I eat a couple times/week. Chopped Fresh Apples tossed in their own Applesauce with Chopped Medjool Dates, Organic Raisins, Local Raw Organic Honey (humanely harvested), Ground Flaxseed, Fresh Lemon Juice, Vietnamese Cinnamon and Organic Vanilla Extract. OMG! There’s more!  The crust is very similar to the Great Balls of Fiber recipe and the topping is an Oat-Crumb mixture made with our Raw Sprouted Cranberry-Almond Granola, then sprinkled with Chia Seeds.  Can you believe a dessert like this can actually be GOOD FOR YOU?!  Believe!  Check out where to buy this and other foods I love from this company HERE

Besides the certain brands mentioned above, I’ve been digging on veggies chopped up and tossed in white balsamic vinegar. I leave it to soak overnight and then munch on them throughout the following day.

And salads…LOTs of em!!!!

I hope all you pregnant mamas are enjoying your sweet time being pregnant, and trying to be mindful of what baby is getting to eat via YOU!
