Ingredients
  

Pork Chops

  • 2 Norcini & Co Antibiotic Hormone Free Pork Chops
  • 1 1/2 tbsp dijon mustard
  • Pinch salt & pepper
  • Pinch chili flakes

Orange Fennel Slaw

  • 1/2 bulb fresh fennel
  • 1 orange
  • splash sherry or white wine vinegar
  • Splash olive oil
  • 1 tbs fresh parsley, finely chopped

Steamed Green Beans

  • 500g green beans, stems trimmed
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • pinch salt & pepper
  • Drizzle olive oil

Instructions
 

Antibiotic Hormone Free Pork Chops

  • Lay the pork chops flat and evenly spread half the mustard on the top of the pork. Season the same side with the salt, pepper and chilli flakes. Flip and repeat. This also can be done in a zip-lock bag. Marinate for at least 4 hours and make sure to bring the meat up to room temp before cooking.
  • When ready to cook, preheat your BBQ and grill to high temp. Start on high and adjust if needed. Cook pork chops 3-5 minutes per side depending on thickness until an internal temperature of 145F is reached. Remove, lightly cover and rest meat for 5 minutes.

Orange Fennel Slaw

  • With a large knife slice the fennel vertically to have 2 halves. Then proceed with a mandolin or a sharp knife to finely shave half of the fennel, place in mixing bowl.
  • Remove the skin and pith of the orange. Then create orange segments or very small orange slices. Add to mixing bowl.
  • Add the parsley and dress the slaw with the oil and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside in the fridge until you're ready to eat.

Steamed Green Beans

  • Cut the tip of the green beans to prepare and add to a steam pot. Finely mince or slice garlic cloves and add to the pot.
  • Steam for about 3 minutes until al dente. Drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Assemble your plate with your rested pork chop, green beans and the orange fennel slaw to top. Add the rested pork juices if you'd like as well! Enjoy!

Ingredients: 
Tofu Stir Fry & Noodles
* 1 block extra firm tofu
* 1 tbsp sesame oil, divided
* pinch salt, pepper and garlic powder
* 200 g rice noodles of choice, cooked according to package directions
* 1 bunch green onions, white parts thinly sliced *Chop some of the greens for garnish
* 1 large carrot, grated

Peanut Sauce

* Juice of 2 limes
* 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
* 1/3 cup water

Directions:
1. Start by preheating the oven to 400℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pat the block of tofu dry with a paper towel and slice the tofu into sticks. 
2. Place the sliced tofu in a medium bowl and add 1/2 tbsp of sesame oil along with the pinch of salt, pepper and garlic powder. Mix well then spread out evenly on the baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes while you prep the remaining ingredients.
3. Mix the ingredients for the peanut sauce in a bowl and set aside, cook your noodles according to package directions and set aside. Toss a drizzle of oil into the cooked noodles to prevent from sticking. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the remaining 1/2 tbsp of the sesame oil.

New! Strawberry Chia Seed Jam by @thedietitianfeed New! Strawberry Chia Seed Jam by @thedietitianfeed 

Am I really a dietitian if I don’t have a chia seed jam on my blog 😘

This Strawberry Chia Seed Jam only takes 10-15 minutes to make & is the perfect addition to you PB & J. 

Like & save this post to make later and follow me @thedietitianfeed for more delicious, nourishing recipes!

Chia seeds are incredibly nutrient packed, and this recipe is a fun way to use more of them! They pack in loads of fibre, vitamins & minerals like calcium and iron, omega 3-fatty acids and contain multiple antioxidants which promote good health. 

Use it for PB & J, top yogurt or smoothie bowls, stir into oatmeal or overnight oats, spread on baked goods. 

Ingredients: 
* 2 cups frozen or fresh sliced strawberries
* 2 tbsp chia seeds
* Juice of 1/2 a lemon
* 1-2 tbsp honey
* Pinch salt
Directions:
1. Heat a small/medium pot over medium heat. Add the strawberries and stir occasionally until they are softened and their juices start to release about 5-10 minutes depending if the berries are frozen or fresh.
2. Once they are very soft, mash them with a potato masher or fork until your desired consistency is reached. Heat for another 5 minutes until the juices start bubbling.
3. Stir in the chia seeds, lemon juice, honey and salt. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid while it cools. 
4. Once cooled add the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week. Enjoy!
