One of the requests I received for new year posts was for easy healthy family recipes. I saw someone post this on Facebook the other day and decided to try it. This crustless quiche was amazing. I served it with some chicken soup. I really like the skinnytaste site they have some really good lite recipes. Stay tuned for more…Bon Appetit!!!
-
3 cups broccoli florets (I used frozen but just make sure to strain all the excess water)
-
5 Eggs, large
-
1/8 tsp Black pepper, ground
-
3/4 tsp Kosher salt
-
1 pinch Nutmeg
-
2/3 cup 2% milk
-
1 cup Cheddar cheese, grated
-
1/4 cup Half & half cream (I use fat free)
-
Preheat your oven to 350degrees.
-
Spray a pie dish with oil.
-
Steam the chopped broccoli florets in the microwave with 1 tablespoon water until tender, crisp and green but not mushy, about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes.
-
Evenly spread the broccoli in the dish and top it evenly with the grated cheddar cheese.
-
Make the custard mixture by whisking together the milk, half and half, eggs, salt, black pepper, and the nutmeg. Pour the custard into the dish and bake 35 to 40 minutes, until the center is set.
-
Cut the quiche into 6 pieces and serve.
A wonderful company, Bette California, reached out to me the other day to show me their amazing beachwear line. I immediately fell in love with everything they presented…The next thing I knew a box full of some of their pieces for me to try on arrived at my door. Every single item was perfection. I love the fits, the fabrics, the cuts, and the accessories. It’s really hard to find swim coverups that actually cover up but do not overwhelm you. Bette’s line is just right. The Bette team is super excited to branch out to the East Coast from their delightful home in California and I was so flattered that they thought my blog was one good way to start. Use this link to get 15% off your order. Now for some of my favorite Bette pieces:
There are so many shapewear companies out there..I feel like Spanx really took over the market with their products. Over the years, I bought lots of Spanx. And after Gwyneth wore 2 to the Oscars, many friends, myself included started doing the same!!!!! But Spanx never really worked for me… I don’t like the material and I really don’t like the fit..BUT I love shapewear and I definitely need it, especially for certain dresses/outfits. I came across a company, Shapellx Best Shapewear!!! on Instagram, you know one of those “click here” to buy ads and I immediately purchased one of their products and I love it.. It does not roll down, it lays flat under all materials and it is not clingy (I always thought the Spanx material was too clingy). The product that I purchased really does slim down your entire body. It’s incredible. On the site, you will see that everything is mostly HIGH compression, which means it really sucks you in!!!!! They also have a list where you can choose your “control” area. I find the site very easy to use!!!
Ultimately, I decided to write a post about shapewear because I did get a few questions about which style to buy and how to choose which piece is right for you. Basically, it is best to stick to your regular size, so that the garment fits just right (Here is their sizing help chart…sooo helpful). If you want to minimize your thighs get a pair of footless tights or biker short style. For smooth lines around the torso, get something with a high waist or a waist trainer for women and for all-over shaping (my favorite!!!!!) choose a bodysuit or these thong shapewear bodysuits!!!
So are you ready to nip and tuck your body? Here are links to some of their best sellers!!!
Here are the Shapellx best shapewear pieces
I have also been asked about waist and body trimmers, where you train your body to get smaller by wearing these a few hours a day!!!! I have never tried any of these, but sign me up!!!!
Shapellx also has a full line of flattering leggings and workout
clothes!!!
This is the shaper that I bought and it’s really really good!!!
And lastly the the sooo popular thong shapewear bodysuits!!!!
