Embark on a transformative journey with Sabrina and Michelle Russell, a dietitian and nutrition therapist, as we challenge the conventional wisdom of meal planning. Shattering the myths of diet culture, we delve into a holistic approach that marries the concept of intuitive eating with the practicalities of organizing meals. Through Michelle's own narrative of overcoming an eating disorder to become a certified specialist, we uncover the compassionate path towards a peaceful relationship with food, and we emerge with a roadmap for meal planning that celebrates food freedom amidst our hectic lives.In our latest episode, we tackle the misconception that intuitive eating and structured meal planning are at odds. Instead, we outline strategies to craft flexible meal plans that honor our body's hunger cues while providing a framework to alleviate stress and reduce waste. We share practical tips and resources, such as the Work Week Lunch program and Budget Bytes, that align with eating competence principles. Our conversation illuminates how a list of ingredients on hand can revive forgotten meals like a simple tuna salad and keep culinary creativity alive without the overwhelm.As we wrap up, we address the modern conundrum of juggling home-cooked meals with the allure of dining out and the convenience of food delivery services. Our guest, Michelle, offers her expertise on how to navigate these choices in a way that suits our fast-paced world.

Hi everyone and welcome back to another full-length episode of Nikoli's Kitchen! This week on the show I talk about what I've been up to in the kitchen and talk about not believing you're a failure, even if you fail. Always, always, always believe in yourselves! After the break, it's time to break down my recipe for homemade Naan with a garlic cilantro butter! Thank you all so much for listening!   Featured Recipe for this Episode ~| Research for this episode included recipes from Budget Bytes, Rasa Malaysia, Once Upon a Chef, and Gimme Some Oven. |~ 3 c flour 3 t dry yeast 1/2 to 3/4 c warm water 1/2 c plain Greek yogurt 2 T sugar 1/4 c olive oil 1 large egg 1 t salt 1/2 t baking powder 1 stick unsalted butter, softened 8 cloves of garlic, finely minced 4 T cilantro, finely chopped Salt and pepper to taste Mix your garlic, cilantro, salt, and pepper into your butter and mix together until well-combined. Set aside until ready to use later (keeping in mind it needs to be pliable enough to brush over the finished naan). Combine your wet ingredients together with the sugar in a large bowl and mix together. Add your yeast and set aside to proof for about 5 minutes. Sift your flour, salt, and baking powder in another bowl. Once your wet mixture is proofed, combine with the flour mixture and mix just until combined into a dough. It should be tacky but not sticky. Once it comes together, stop kneading. Coat the inside of your bowl with a light bit of olive oil or olive oil spray and place the dough inside.  Cover with a damp towel and let it rise for about 90 minutes or until doubled. Tip the dough out onto a floured work surface. Shape your dough into a long rectangle (at least 24 inches or so long and mine was only 3" or 4" wide). Using a knife or pastry cutter, cut the rectangle into six equal portions. Coat the dough chunks in a light coating of flour to prevent sticking. Place a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over mid-high heat until it gets very hot.  Roll out the dough chunks to about 1/8" inch thickness (should be roughly circular or ovular in shape, about 10" by 6" or so). Pass it back and forth in your hands to knock off any excess flour. Place into the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes or until it has browned and blistered. Flip it and do the same on the other side (my total cook time per piece was only about a minute per side). Once off the heat, immediately brush it with your garlic cilantro herbed butter. Keep them in the oven at 200° to keep them warm until ready to eat. Calories per serving (naan, one piece) - 315. Calories per serving (herbed butter, 1 T) - 110.   Important Links (All links open in a new window) Main Website Subscribe on Patreon! Livestream for the Cure Join my Discord Community!

If you’ve ever searched for a recipe online, you’ve probably seen the popular food blog, Budget Bytes, pop up with a tasty dish. What you might not know about the budget-friendly site is that it started out as a food hobby for owner Beth Moncel, who became more-than-obsessed with counting each and every penny of her monthly budget as she paid back student-loans for a Nutritional Science degree. Yup, the cost savings meal prep tips Budget Bytes was founded on originally started out as Facebook posts to just Beth’s friends.  One of the many things I found remarkable about this conversation with Beth is how she continued on in her higher education and achieved a second degree, this time in Clinical Laboratory Science, all while running her booming blog. As you probably know, she chose the path less traveled, running a full-time food blog that highlights the cost of each recipe down to the individual serving. In this episode, we chat about her long-standing blog, cookbook, food app, and how she helps people eat deliciously on small budgets.   HIGHLIGHTS: How Beth’s relationship with food blossomed. Beth’s food blogging journey and how she monetized her blog. Taking the leap: How Beth made her career change. Things to consider when starting a new project. Being a part of the Budget Bytes community. Finding a balance between business and personal. How to get started on food blogging. Adapting to changes in the digital world.    QUOTABLES: “It's exhausting but you have to love that part of it to be successful as a blogger. Because if you don't love the actual process of doing it, you're gonna give up way, way sooner than you're ever going to start making money. So you have to enjoy the day-to-day.” - Beth Moncel     “If you stick with it and keep learning and learning, eventually you will become an expert. And people will pay you for that expertise. So if there's something you're passionate about, don't tell yourself no before even trying.” - Beth Moncel   HUNGRY FOR MORE?

Martin and Ayesha are both natural savers who have been great about living below their means but lacked a real plan. Their goals are to maximize investments for retirement and finding ways to utilize dividend funds. After stumbling across the ChooseFI podcast, they felt like their financial independence number and retirement seemed obtainable which has helped push them to commit and make even bigger changes. While Martin and Ayesha had a 20-25% savings rate before finding FI, Brad commended them on what a great job they were doing. He also stressed that FI is about living a better life and having the financial security to get you there, not what your savings rate is. Despite the inclination to save, Ayesha always resisted the thought of meticulousness and restrictive budgets. However, she found that she could get behind the idea of focusing on spending on what they truly valued, so they began using Personal Capital as a less obtrusive method of tracking their spending and gaining insight into their habits. Something that Martin and Ayesha place considerable value on are experiences, particularly travel, spending time with friends and family, and being healthy. Instead of getting together at restaurants and spending money on pricey meals out, they began hosting monthly potlucks. Ayesha has found the website Budget Bytes to be incredibly economical when it comes to low-cost recipes and efficient for discovering uses for the ingredients she already has in her refrigerator. It's helped to cut their grocery bill to around $600 per month for their family of 4. Due to quarantine restrictions, Ayesha was out of work for months, which she calls a blessing in disguise. During that free time, they were able to take a deep dive into their spending and immediately saved $500. It also allowed them to slow down and spend more time with family enjoying the outdoors, playing games, and eating all three meals together. Following the time off from work, Ayesha has realized that it does cause her some stress which made her want to buy things. It also strengthened her conviction to reduce her workload within 5 years to perhaps just one day a week so that she can find more joy in the moment. Although Martin enjoyed his two-hour daily commute, working from home during the pandemic has made him more aware of the importance of time. He now strives to make the most of his time and focus on using it in ways that bring him the most value. While their monthly expenses are not constant because life is lumpy, it runs around $3,500 but can go as high as $5,000 a month when home repairs are needed. Martin and Ayesha have a goal of reaching FI in seven years and are looking at exploring several different options to help get them there. With option one, they would withdraw money from an investment account to pay off the mortgage on their home. The money saved on the mortgage payment would then be invested for the next seven years. In option two, they would use their investment account to pay off half of the remaining mortgage and continue to make the monthly mortgage payments which result in a mortgage pay off in seven years. Their third option is to refinance their current mortgage which has 17 years left at 3.3% interest rate to a 15-year loan at 2.6%, but that refinance incurs $7,000 in fees. The payments would remain the same, but the home would be paid off two years earlier. Ayesha likes the idea of not having a mortgage but doesn't want to do it if the numbers don't make sense. However, Martin is okay with a lower net worth if it means they can get rid of their mortgage because he feels they would have more options. Brad admits this is an issue he and many others in the FI community struggle with. With such low-interest rates on mortgages, it's almost always a better option mathematically to keep the money invested, but it doesn't mean it's the right decision for everyone. The psychological aspect needs to be considered. If they would like to pay the mortgage off in seven years, the best thing they can do it to use an amortization calculator and see how much extra they will need to pay each month to have the mortgage paid off in seven years. Martin and Ayesha can then see how that payment fits into their current lifestyle. As a fourth option, Brad pointed out that they can drastically reduce their FI number if they were to pay off their mortgage. With a FI estimate of 1.25 million, using the 4% rule, they would have $4,000 per month. If the mortgage was paid off, they could reduce their monthly expenses by $1,600, and then their FI number is only $750,000. After living through the 2008 housing market crash and not having a plan, and then this most recent market downturn, Martin and Ayesha have realized they may not be as risk-tolerant as they used to believe. Brad suggested having an investor policy statement that they've written down to help them stay the course in times of uncertainty. The biggest takeaway is the being on the path to FI gives you options when you have the freedom and flexibility to create a plan that works to meet your goals and live a better life, even if it isn't always mathematically optimized. It's a common problem to be overwhelmed with all the information we consume about optimizing various aspects of our lives that we end up with analysis paralysis. It's important to remember that we're trying to live better lives. They don't have to perfect or 100% optimized. One final concern Martin and Ayesha have is funding their children's education. Brad admits it may be wishful thinking that the higher education system goes through some sort of dramatic change in the coming years, but he and Laura consider paying $50,000 a year for college to be unpalatable and have stopped putting money into their girls' 529 accounts. Instead, they have tried to normalize the conversation about money in their house and have discussed lower-cost options for college.

Since we’re all spending a lot more time indoors, getting to know our kitchens a little better and not going to restaurants, we’re particularly happy to have Beth Moncel joining us today. Before Beth was a food blogger, she was a microbiologist after earning a degree in nutritional science. Now, she has a massively popular site called Budget Bytes where you can find simple, delicious recipes that are designed for folks with small budgets. Beth has published a cookbook and she has developed a really cool mobile app as she continues to help others discover the joy of cooking while saving money. After housing and transportation, for most of us food is our next biggest expense every month so we’re excited to talk with an expert who sits at the intersection of food and money. During this episode we enjoyed a Whimsical Nature by Phase Three Brewing - thanks to Doug for sending this one our way!

Kate and Betsy host a podcast where they test three recipes from around the web every week and talk about how the recipes worked (or didn’t) in their homes. Listen to hear about how they manage three new recipes every week, how their loved ones deal with a steady stream of new foods, and what happened when Betsy’s attempt to make a simple fish dish went terribly wrong.

Kate's Favorite: Sheet Pan Meatballs with Crispy Turmeric Chickpeas (Smitten Kitchen) from Episode 35: Sheet Pan Meals Betsy's Favorite: Pork and Peanut Dragon Noodles (Budget Bytes) from Episode 2: So, About the Instant Pot   Go and listen to their podcast!

Beth Moncel didn't plan on creating Budget Bytes, the amazing food blog that's helping people cook healthy, wallet friendly meals, but thank goodness she did! I loved hearing about how creating a little spot on the internet for herself lead to a nine year journey of helping people and creating her dream job. Beth's gradual transition into making her passion project her day job is a great story to hear for the more cautious of us creative women.   Find Beth @BudgetBytes on Instagram BudgetBytes.com Budget Bytes App on iTunes   3 CWL Musts Download: The Calm app Follow: Yourself!

There are two things Beth Moncel will readily admit: "I am broke and I love to eat." She's not a professional chef... although she's worked in several commercial kitchens. She's not a super-mommy homemaker... but gives mad props to all of them out there. (It’s hard enough just taking care of herself!) She's not a financial expert... she just happens to be obsessed with numbers. Beth like to cook because it’s the perfect combination of her two favorite subjects: art and science. She's a former microbiologist with degrees in both Clinical Laboratory Science and Nutritional Science from Louisiana State University. Beth is not “cheap” because she does appreciate quality; she just likes to be able to have her cake, eat it, AND pay her bills on time. In short, Beth doesn't believe that eating for pennies a day has to mean eating Ramen Noodles 100 different ways. She created her blog, Budget Bytes, in 2009 in response to her own financial crisis and to document her attempts to cook delicious and (mostly) nutritious food on a small budget. Beth's mission is twofold: to give confidence to new cooks and to inspire people to learn how to cook and thereby reduce their dependence on the prepared food industry.
