Had lots of fun filming the making of these dark chocolate raspberry oatmeal bars! I had some frozen raspberries and thought they would be a delicious addition to some oatmeal bars! Pack these bars into school lunch for a treat, or spoon 3/4 cup Greek yogurt onto them for breakfast or a snack! DARK CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY OATMEAL BARS INGREDIENTS:... - 2 1/4 cups rolled oats - 1 1/2 cups frozen raspberries (or 3/4 cup raspberry jam) - 3/4 cup whole wheat flour - 3/4 cup pastry flour or AP flour - 1/4 cup white sugar - 1/4 cup brown sugar (can do less sugar if like them less sweet or use a different sugar) - 1/4 tsp salt - 3/4 cup melted coconut oil (can sub butter) - 2 tsp vanilla extract - 1 egg - 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks DIRECTIONS: 1. Put frozen raspberries in a small saucepan and boil on medium-high heat until no longer very watery. About 5-7 minutes. Let cool. 2. Preheat oven to 350F. 3. Mix rest of the ingredients together in a bowl, except for dark chocolate. 4. Mix in dark chocolate chunks and pour about 1/2 the mixture into an 8x8 parchment paper lined baking dish. Press mixture firmly into dish. 5. Spread raspberry sauce onto the first layer, leaving about a 1/4 inch border. 6. Crumble second half of the mixture onto the first layer, and gently press it in. 7. Bake for about 25-28 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool before slicing into squares. Let me know how you like them and if there’s anything else you’d like to see me make in the kitchen! #employee #dietitianapproved #healthyrecipes #oatmealbars See more

HELLO STUFFED ROASTED BELL PEPPERS Bell peppers are our local produce hero this week, and these stuffed roasted bell peppers are SUPER easy to make and require just FOUR ingredients! Great for a quick dinner (and a fun way to get some veggies in) and super easy to modify! Bell peppers come in so many colours - yellow, orange, red, white, purple and black! And if you’re looking to get some Vitamin C in your diet, then look no further! Try out the recipe below & s...end me photos of your creations! STUFFED ROASTED BELL PEPPERS INGREDIENTS: - 3 bell peppers - 6 eggs - 3/4 cup shredded cheese (havarti or mozzarella work well but any cheese will do!) - 1/2 tsp paprika - Salt and pepper, to taste - Optional: chives or green onion for garnish DIRECTIONS: 1. Preheat oven to 425F. 2. Using a knife, slice the tops off the peppers and remove the seeds. 3. Place peppers standing up on a lined baking sheet and baking until they begin to soften (about 15 minutes). 4. Take peppers out. Sprinkle with half of the cheese, and crack 1-2 eggs (only 1 may fit!) in each pepper. Sprinkle with some paprika, salt and pepper, and bake until egg whites have set but yolks are still runny (8-10 minutes). 5. Take peppers out and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Broil 1 minute until the cheese has melted. Top with green onion or chives for garnish, if using. Serve with some brown rice, a toasted English muffin or some whole grain bread to make this a balanced meal! TIP! If your peppers are not able to stand up straight (peppers come in all shapes and sizes!) you can cut your peppers in half lengthwise and crack one egg in each half of the pepper instead! You can also stuff your pepper with some pre-made quinoa, canned beans or brown rice to make this a balanced meal! The options are endless! Looking for a quick veg to add to your meal? You can also roast pepper halves on their own in the oven with some olive oil, salt and pepper at 450F for 20 minutes! SO delicious AND easy, and can be served on the side, in sandwiches or on burgers! Can you tell I love bell peppers? They’re definitely one of our favourite vegetables at our house! #employee #bellpeppers #dinnerideas #dietitiantips See more
