Jakes at Treasure Beach, St. Elizabeth, JamaicaMissed me on Mello?
Want to Enjoy Easter, but stay on your Fitness Mission?
Easter Brunch or Dinner can feel just as special at home as they would at a restaurant with a little planning and prep.
Try these Dishes in the Kitchen:
1. DEVILED EGGS An Easter classic. Great brunch side or appetizer.
Use hot or mild pepper sauce, try dill or a sweet pickle relish, use fat-dree mayo and add a sprinkle of fresh Chives for more flavor.
2. Not a Deviled eggs fan? Try SPINACH AND MUSHROOM QUICHE or one of my faves, a CALLALOO FRITTATA.
Ensure you use unsweetened Almond milk and a low fat cheese such as a part skim mozzarella.

3. VEGGIE SIDES
Take advantage of seasonal flavors and root vegetables to add colour nutritional value to your Easter table. Root vegetables include carrots, parsnips, beets, red onion and sweet potato.
4. CORIANDER AND LEMON CRUSTED SALMON with Asparagus Salad and Poached Egg
5. CARROT CAKE OR YOUR OWN VEGETARIAN EASTER BUN!
Use whole-wheat or spelt flour (hulled, purer wheat), Unsweetened Almond milk, Cinnamon and Agave to sweeten instead of sugar.
If you aren’t Vegetarian, please also cook or bake with Olive oil or Vegetable oil, not Coconut oil. We will leave that debate for after Easter. 🙂
Have a Happy, Holy and Restful Easter. Remember Balance is key.
