Best Foods You Need to Make While Isolating at Home
For most of us, we have been isolating at home for about a month now, and we miss our regular routine of going out to our favorite restaurants. While many of our favorite restaurants offer delivery or take-out, we are now spending more time in our own kitchens. Sure, we have a few favorite recipes that have been passed down for generations (like Nana’s pot roast), but we are ready to try something new! Here are a few new food ideas that we recommend trying!
Smoothies
Remember that blender you got as a wedding gift that is currently sitting in the back of the pantry and gathering dust? Now is the time to pull it out and make some smoothies! There are hundreds of ways to make smoothies, but we are really loving this Lean Green Smoothie from Taste of Home. It’s easy, delicious, healthy, and a good way to start your morning before working from home!
Bowl Food
Bowl food has been a growing trend in the last few years because they are the perfect combination of deliciousness and healthiness. In fact, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex served bowl food at their wedding back in 2018! There are endless possibilities when it comes to bowl food, but we really loved this Korean Chicken Bowl recipe from How Sweet Eats.
Roasted Chickpeas
While working from home, we often get a bad case of the munchies. Instead of reaching for the leftover Easter candy, we recommend roasting chickpeas for an easy-to-grab, healthy, and delicious snack. We are particularly fond of this spicy variation from Martha Stewart!
Chocolate Cake
Even though we enjoy promoting healthier eating choices and recipes, we also thoroughly believe that you need to treat yourself – especially if you are working from home! We recommend trying this chocolate orange cake from Sugar Hero, which is totally worth gaining the quarantine fifteen for!
