Your new summer cookout MVP. 🍝🌿 This pesto pasta salad comes together with just a handful of simple ingredients, and even the pickiest kids go back for seconds. Add a little protein and you can turn it into an easy weeknight dinner! Here’s how to make it: * 1 lb rotini pasta * 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved * 8 oz mozzarella pearls * ⅓ cup Italian dressing, homemade or store-bought (I used Bolthouse Farms) * ¼ cup chopped fresh basil * Fresh black pepper, for garnish PESTO * 2 cups fresh basil leaves * 2 small cloves garlic * ¼ cup pine nuts * ⅔ cup fresh grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, parmesan works too * 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice * ½ teaspoon sea salt, more to taste * pinch ground black pepper, more to taste * ½ cup extra virgin olive oil 1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside to cool. 2. While pasta is cooking, make pesto by adding basil, garlic, pine nuts, grated parmesan, lemon juice, salt and pepper into a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Add oil and process until fully incorporated and smooth. 3. Combine cooled pasta with 1 cup pesto, tomatoes, mozzarella, Italian dressing, and fresh basil. 4. Toss to combine until pasta is fully coated. Crack fresh black pepper on top. Taste and add more salt or pepper, as desired. pinch ground black pepper 5. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve. Note: you’ll have about ⅓ cup leftover pesto – store this in the fridge as you might want to add more pesto before serving as the pasta soaks up some of the pesto as it sits. #pesto #pastasalad #sidedish #kidapproved #mealprepideas

The VIRAL SALTED CHOCOLATE BROWNIE BALLS are pure magic!✨ Naturally sweetened with medjool dates, packed with chocolate protein and coated in melted chocolate with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt… they’re the ultimate no-bake treat. I already want to make another batch. 🍫💪 IB: @elle gibson Here is how to make them: · 1 ½ cups medjool dates · 3 Tbsp oat flour · 3 Tbsp cacao powder · 1 scoop (25 grams) chocolate protein powder (I used Equip) · 2 Tbsp maple syrup · 2 Tbsp almond or cashew butter · ½ teaspoon sea salt Chocolate coating: · ½ cup chocolate chips (I used Lily's) · ½ teaspoon coconut oil · Flaky sea salt for topping 1️⃣ Add the medjool dates, oat flour, cacao powder, chocolate protein powder, maple syrup, nut butter (almond or cashew) and sea salt to a food processor. Blend until the mixture is well combined and forms a sticky dough. You may need to scrape down the sides once or twice to ensure everything is incorporated. If the mixture seems too dry or isn’t coming together, add 1–2 teaspoons of water and blend again until the dough sticks when pressed. 2️⃣ Use your hands or a small cookie scoop to portion out the dough and roll into even-sized balls. You should get about 12 balls, depending on the size. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet or plate. 3️⃣ Add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth (usually about 60–90 seconds total). 4️⃣ Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the coated balls back on the parchment-lined surface. 5️⃣ Immediately sprinkle each chocolate-coated ball with a pinch of flaky sea salt before the chocolate sets. 6️⃣ Place the finished balls in the fridge or freezer for 10–15 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden. Once set, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

HEALTHIER BANANA PUDDING. 🍌 This is not ya mama's banana puddin'! It's higher in protein and has about half the sugar, but still just as creamy, tasty and nostalgic. → The big swap is using vanilla Greek yogurt instead of vanilla pudding mix - gives it extra protein, less sugar and a little tang. (You can use dairy-free vanilla yogurt if needed... I recommend @siggisdairy plant-based) → For the whipped topping, I used @SoDeliciousDairyFree coco whip, but you can use tru whip instead. → I used @Whole Foods Market organic vanilla wafers for filming this, but you could also use @Partake Foods or @HighKey wafers. #bananapudding #healthierdesserts #healthybananapudding

Banana Bread Protein Balls. 🍌 Basically all the banana bread flavor we love, put inside an easy no-bake protein ball with chocolate. You're gonna love these. IB: @Becca | Teachertastes Here’s how to make them: • 1 ripe banana (120g), mashed • ¾ cup (112g) oat flour • ½ cup almond butter • 3 Tablespoon maple syrup • ⅓ cup (45g) plant-based vanilla protein powder, I used Truvani • ½ teaspoon cinnamon • ¼ teaspoon salt CHOCOLATE COATING • ½ cup chocolate chips • 1 teaspoon coconut oil • Flaky sea salt, for topping 1. Mash banana in a bowl until smooth. 2. Add oat flour, almond butter, maple syrup, protein powder, cinnamon and salt. Using a spoon or your hands mix until a thick dough forms. 3. Use your hands or a small cookie scoop to portion out the dough and roll into even-sized balls. You should get about 14 balls, depending on the size. 4. Freeze for about 10-15 minutes until firm. 5. Add the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth (this usually takes about 60–90 seconds). 6. Using a fork or spoon, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the coated balls back on the parchment-lined surface (I used a parchment lined baking sheet). Alternatively, you can just drizzle the chocolate on top of the balls instead of dipping them. Immediately sprinkle each chocolate-coated ball with a pinch of flaky sea salt before the chocolate sets, if desired. 7. Place the finished balls in the fridge or freezer for 10–15 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden. Enjoy or store for later! #proteinballs #banana #snacks #macrofriendly #protein
