Are you forever puzzled about what to cook for dinner? Well, this week's podcast is for you! We're talking meal prepping, a game-changer for creating fast, delicious, and nutritious meals, especially for those of us in midlife.
We pull in Laura Pauli, chef and founder of Cucina Testarosa, to shed her culinary wisdom on creating those hearty fall and winter meals. Laura shares her journey from the world of tech to the kitchen and then onto philanthropy, all while emphasizing the importance of having healthy food at your fingertips.
Now, what's the secret of meal prepping? One strategy is preparing a base recipe that can be magically transformed into a variety of dishes throughout the week. Laura and co-host Ellen take you through a versatile tomato soup recipe that's not just for a bowl and spoon but also forms the base for pasta sauce, gazpacho, and even Bloody Marys. Ever struggled with kale? Well, Laura has some tricks up her sleeve to make it more palatable. And wait, there's more! We also share recipes for an enticing kale and quinoa lentil salad, and a flavorful carrot ginger soup.
The second strategy is to prep a variety of fresh ingredients that you use to put together fresh and nutritious meals in minutes. We've got some handy hacks for storing your prepped veggies for the week and the importance of having hard-boiled eggs on hand (talk about a protein-packed snack!) and prepping veggies and grains or legumes to mix and match. Laura also shares her secret weapon – using seasonal ingredients to create nutrient-rich dishes. Eat the rainbow is the secret to a healthy diet. We delve into how prepping meals can be your one-way ticket to health and convenience. By the end of our chat, we promise you'll feel inspired to create mindful, delicious, and economical meals for you and your family.
