This week’s family meal prep - {Zesty Parmesan Meatballs, Chicken Bacon Ranch Salad In A Jar, Meal Prep Rice, Tender Crisp Broccoli, Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins}.
39 weeks and 5 days. wowza. after the 1st trimester, time just does its own thing and this 5th round was no different. however, we are ready, ready now. well, at least baby girl and i are. Sonny doesn’t start packing until i start contracting, but this is his 5th rodeo too so what can i say lol! give the video a listen; i listed my hospital bag essentials out below and tagged as much as i could to my LTK shop.
Movie night and pizza night are two traditions our family has enjoyed for years now! However, pizza nights are usually fun for only 5 out of 6 of us ; I typically have to prepare my own separate dish or heat up a frozen, dairy-free pizza for myself because of my lactose- intolerance. I have longed for the day when we could all finally enjoy the same pie,together.
another fun cooking class in the bag! i posted an IG reel from the good footage hubs captured; he is my camera man, my sound man, my chat moderator, and my last minute grocery shopper😬. I love using fresh ingredients and typically go get them the night before I teach. I forgot the purple onion and didn’t realize it until after I got home! ugh!! it happens… and I’m so grateful to have Sonny by my side helping me pursue my dreams.
Hey y’all! the holiday season has come and gone (can you believe it!?) and I’m grateful to be here to serve YOU and rock 2022!
Not only did I make a few goals for myself as usual, but the Egwuatu family sat down and made some together for the first time.
happy 2022, OG blog readers, lol! thank you for being here yet another year we are blessed to see. guess what- FULL video of this Protein Pizza Dough up on my YT channel! leave us a review, a like, and subscribe to our channel to see more. recipe below!
i cannot and will not pick a favorite! no way no how. this reno is most definitely our kids’ favorite though! they’ve now got a pretty amazing game room to work and play in; this was Sonny’s vision brought to life with the help and resources of of some truly talented peeps.
When I tell you guys that I’ve struck gold when it comes to finding high quality food and more at unbeatable prices, you better believe me! Ever have to bounce around to a handful of stores to get all of your shopping done? Yeah, I don’t live that life anymore🙌🏽. I love that I can get the vast majority of my pantry staples at a solid, low price at ALDI. Let me prove it to you with this fancy, budget-friendly weeknight meal!
this recipe is super special to me cause i made it with my mommy ♥️. she was over visiting her grand babies and we did a “meatballs with mom” kinda thing for dinner one night!
peeeeeps.
how?
just how…. is it july!? are you kidding me? like the summer is halfway over already y’all, sheesh. our summer is going quite well and i truly hope yours is too. we’re one vaca in the bag and hoping to squeeze in one more, Lord willing. have you taken a vaca yet or plan to? check out our trip to Kalahari last month if ya haven’t already.

so.... after having a bad experience with tofu a few years back, i haven't touched the stuff (other than in desserts, pumpkin pie specifically) since then. yikes! this dish...... has rekindled my tofu flame. i KNOW it will either ignite yours or make it burn even brighter! trust fit foodie le on this one, friends.
you'll need your food processor for sure; here's the affordable, user-friendly one i rock with.
homemade pesto always tastes amazing cause it's so fresh!
clearly i've been missing out. i used Barilla High Protein Farfalle and i chose Nasoya's Organic Extra Firm Tofu Plus which has been fortified with vitamins B2, B6, B12, D, and Calcium. it's spectacular for peeps on a no/low meat diet.
a few more key FAQs:
that moment... before i combined the powers that be. i snapped a little bit of the cooking process of this dish; did you catch it!? add me (fitfoodiele) and let me know what your snap chat is so i can follow your story too! i have truly enjoyed commenting and connecting on there.
holy cannoli. i mean, i was blown away and impressed after one forkful. i don't care what anybody says- vegans eat DARN GOOD. you can find the recipe for this vegan masterpiece right here on Nasoya's website!
i have been encouraged to add more tofu to our weekly menu and give more vegan recipes a chance whirl. eating healthy does NOT meal sacrificing flavor; this recipe proves that to be true! TofuPlus not only reduces fat and cholesterol levels (when substituted with meat of course) but it will make both your body and your taste buds happy indeed.
look at this guy! i could not keep him away from this stuff during shooting. he was eating the tofu chunks too! now.. where is my nail clipper? sheesh

yall. i hope you enjoyed your V-Day, however you spent it! all i know is, at the end of sunday night i looked to be about 8 months preggo #fail. oh and speaking of failing, i had a major flexi rod hairstyle disappointment this past weekend too! sheesh. just tryin' to hold it together over here most days, ha. i'm not giving up on natural hair, yall hear me!? anyway, i'll tell ya all about that in my next post. for now, here was monday's fit. soon as i spotted this scarf i put this top and bottom together in my head. perfect! photo cred goes to my 4 year old big boy, Chiso.
