Fat Tuesday is next Tuesday (March 1st)! Even if we can’t celebrate Mardi Gras in New Orleans, we can at least EAT Mardi Gras style! Just in case you were curious, the celebration of Mardi Gras actually goes back as far as the late 1700’s and, in 1875, the “Mardi Gras Act” was signed making Fat Tuesday a legal holiday in Louisiana, which it still is today.
Are you looking forward to maybe over-indulging a little on Fat Tuesday (still eating REAL food of course!), we have some ideas for you! The Crazy Cajun Quinoa will get you in the mood, and so will the Cajun Shrimp and Guacamole Pizza! Yes, Cajun shrimp and guacamole all on the same pizza and it’s really delicious!
Tuesday is also Shrove Tuesday (also known as Pancake Day). More to come on this in our coaching tip next Tuesday. Until then, you can enjoy the Banana Oat Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce – yes, pancakes with a few, simple, REAL ingredients!
For those celebrating the season of Lent, we will provide some amazing seafood and vegetarian meals the next few weeks…meals like this Portobello Burger! And there are more crazy good side dishes in the lineup this week, including the Tropical Spiced Fruit Salad, Roasted Beet Chips, and the Caesar Salad with Avocado Dressing.
If you are considering doing something special for Lent, what about a commitment to eat only REAL food?! Or, if you are already enjoying a REAL food lifestyle, what about encouraging a family member or friend to join you?! It could be the life-changing habit they have been searching for!
Coming soon…St. Patrick’s Day-inspired meal ideas to get your green on!
