I used to be not compensated to write down this publish. My ideas and opinions are my very own – and I occur to be a very long time lover of Cabot cheese!
I came upon some fairly thrilling information final week.
I’m going to be a part of the 2014 Cabot Fit Team.
Now, I’ve labored with Cabot Creamery for a number of years on tasks starting from creating nutritious recipes to delivering wholesome consuming shows. I respect the corporate (a cooperative of 1,200 dairy farm family in New England and upstate New York) and really love their cheeses from their Sharp Light cheddars (sure–> gentle cheese that really tastes wonderful and melts) to their progressive merchandise (umm, at present I’m coveting this Hand Rubbed Everything Bagel Cheddar.)

Now, Serena and I’ve by no means positioned this weblog to be about health however I figured you would possibly need to hear sometimes about how we attempt to observe what we preach: Make wholesome meals that’s at all times scrumptious, splurge at occasions, and add train to our days the place we are able to.
I’m not going to get into posting my run occasions or my weekly mileage however somewhat, I’d prefer to share how I exploit meals to gasoline train and share my newest favourite meals/meals/snacks that give me power. Like this —> my present go-to, post-exercise drink after a run or boot camp class.
Talking of wholesome meals gasoline…
I don’t learn about you, however I’ve gotten into salad ruts currently, and I’ve been in an total greens rut (which did present inspiration for this soup.) Generally I’m going various days with out consuming one thing inexperienced.
And don’t ask me to drink a inexperienced smoothie – I simply can’t do it.
So, being on the Cabot Match staff has impressed me to get again on the balanced consuming monitor and eat my greens.
Within the Jan/Feb subject of Cooking Mild, there was a web page of 6 Tremendous Kale Salads that I instantly ripped out. The Mango & Coconut Kale Salad was a favourite for awhile and extra lately I gave this Kale Caesar Salad a whirl.
My suggestions/additions to Cooking Light’s recipe:
- Add cooked beans for additional fiber and protein (I used canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained)
- As an alternative of Parmesan, grate Cabot Further Mild Cheddar. Each Cabot Mild and Further Mild have decrease moisture content material so that they grate like an aged Parmesan however for much less energy.
- Use flavored olive oil (I cherished the dressing with my Dealer Joe’s Lemon Olive Oil.)
- Attempt it roasted (After day 3 of the leftovers, I truly favored it even higher than the uncooked model. Simply throw all of the leftovers onto a tray, right into a 400 diploma oven and stir a couple of occasions. Takes about 5-10 minutes.)
So, do you get in inexperienced/salad ruts? Are you over kale or is it a staple in your consuming routine? Share recipes and concepts – love to listen to from you!
