Welcome

Amanda Arroyo

My name is Amanda Arroyo. I have many food allergies and the fact the I am plant based and my family is not, can make meal time difficult. I’ve always had “a different beet” when it comes to my meals. I am currently studying for my Nutrition Consultant Certification and with that I want to be able to offer healthy meal plans and specifically help families with differing diets, whatever they may be.

I had to share one of my favorite fall salads! It’s also a great salad to go with spicy food. I usually gravitate towards this salad whenever I use Cajun spices. Check out the link in my bio for what makes this recipe healthy. Otherwise, here’s the recipe: Ingredients * 1/4 cup orange juice * 2 tbsp lemon juice * 2 tsp orange zest, or clementine zest * 2 tbsp olive oil * 2 tsp dijon mustard * salt & pepper * 4 clementines, peeled and in slices * 8-10 oz. Super Greens (I used swiss chard, spinach, and arugula) * 1 cup toasted chopped pecans Directions 1. Make the dressing. Whisk together the orange juice, lemon juice, orange zest, olive oil, and dijon mustard. Taste and add salt and pepper if desired. 2. If your pecans are not already toasted, heat a small skillet on low without anything but the pecans and let it slowly toast while you constantly move them around so that they don’t burn. Once you start to small the pecans, turn off the heat and throw the toasted pecans in a small bowl to cool off. 3. Take your greens, clementines, and cooled toasted pecans, and toss with the dressing. Serve immediately! . . . Make 4-6 Servings . . . #salad #recipe #health #healthy #saladrecipe #healthyrecipe #food #foodphotography #nutrition #fall #greens #supergreens #pecans #blog #blogger #newpost #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition

Something I always have on hand to make - pinto or black bean tacos with sautéed pepper and onions, avocado, and cilantro. Oh! And of course limes... always limes. . . . What is your favorite way to make a taco? . . . #tacothursday #taco #mexican #easyrecipes #easydinner #dinner #lunch #healthylunch #healthydinner #health #healthy #protein #plantprotein #plantbased #vegetarian #vegan #nutrition #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition

My newest mistake post - thinking short term. Who’s with me?! . . . We all want an easy fix and seeing the promises of the “loose 10lbs in a week!” Doesn’t help. It wasn’t until I realized a few things that I was able to change for the healthier. . . . True results will take time. And to stay healthy means you have to change your lifestyle. It’s more than just 1 change. It effects your everyday routine and decisions. . . . To read more check out my latest post.

My #mondaymotivation this week! Since I’ve been trying to start my own workout routine and haven’t been able to stick to anything 🤦‍♀️ I decided to download an app with 7 minute exercise routines including a morning and night time stretch. My goal: 20 minutes a day, including my stretches. Which means - AM stretches, 7 minute work out, and then PM stretches before bed! 🙌🏻 Something simple I know I can keep and hopefully soon add more to it. “Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.” . . . #monday #mondaymood #motivation #exercise #routine #health #healthy #healthlifestyle #dowhatyoucan #adifferentbeet #differentbeetnutrition
