Mushroom & Kale Omelet PLUS Week 2 of the #MushroomMakeover AD

#MushroomMakeover DisclosureWeek two has come to a close with my #MushroomMakeover with MushroomInfo.com (AD) and Mamavation and I haven’t felt better in years! My food has been delicious, I no longer have headaches and random body aches and pains, and I’m even moving around easier (that is, when I’m not sore from my workouts!). The Mushroom Makeover is all about incorporating mushrooms into delicious meals by replacing some or all of your meats, as well as eating whole grain and fiber rich foods that are rich in protein and healthy fats rather than carbs and empty calories.

week two meals #mushroommakeover

Week two consisted of the following:
-Traditional spaghetti meal made over incorporating more mushrooms & less meat, served over zucchini noodles
-Open faced wheat muffin with sliced tomato, scrambled eggs, & spinach, onion, and chopped mushrooms
-Veggie platter showing how easy it is to incorporate these eating habits into everyday life
-A mushroom and kale omelet.

To be honest, when I first told my family about my new food and fitness plan they weren’t too excited about being a part of it. They liked all their food just how I’ve always made it so I assured them in the beginning that I’d only alter my meals. That first week I bought all the things I’d be incorporating into my own meals, as well as the normal groceries I make for my typical family meals. Every time I made my own meal, they’d be peeking over my shoulder and asking for a taste. Slowly but surely my older kids and husband were begging me to make my meals for them too. They just remarked how good everything looked and smelled as well as noticing the change in how much better I’ve been feeling as well.

With a family my size, I think it can be difficult to just change everything about the way you eat and expect everyone to be accepting. It’s hard enough to make and create meals with all the ingredients that everyone likes and will eat as well. I think the slow and steady change is effective and slowly but surely they will follow. For a long time I let that be the deciding factor on why it would be more difficult to change my own habits. But since the first week I’ve found ways to incorporate changes in everyone’s diet without causing too much distress, if anything everyone is eating all my fruit and veggies!

If you’d like to follow along with us during the #MushroomMakeover, you can follow these easy tips and recipe ideas to get an idea on what we’re eating, or follow the Mushroom Channel Pinterest Board. You can also follow along with our workout plan. Don’t let those workouts fool you, it looks easy enough but it’s serious business!

Mushroom kale omeletThis past week one of my favorite meals made over with mushrooms was this delicious Mushroom & Kale Omelet. Instead of adding meat into the omelet or as a side, Instead I incorporated mushrooms into the omelet with kale and served with a spoonful of nonfat Greek yogurt. My favorite thing about many of these meals is that they do not taste like diet food. They are filling and delicious, and look more like a cheat than a treat. When most people think of eating healthy they think of bland food and liken the meals to rabbit food, but this plan is not like that in the least bit. All of my meals taste amazing! This omelet is by far one of my favorite meals I’ve incorporated to date.

Mushroom & Kale Omelet Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped yellow onions
  • 4 medium white button mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/3 cup chopped kale

[Sponsored]: Summertime is coming and will be here before we know it! You all know that I love easy meals during the warmer months, and I also love a good meal in a bowl. It’s also Vidalia Onion season 🧅 so I paired this seasonal favorite with pan-seared shrimp and veggies as a light rice bowl using your choice of grains.☺️This meal is an absolute delight!

Get the recipe and all the Vidalia Onion details by clicking the link in my profile or desktop users can click here for the recipe >> https://mamaharriskitchen.com/2021/06/pan-seared-shrimp-veggie-rice-bowl-vidalia-onions/ .

Also make sure to grab some Vidalia Onions from your local grocer before they are out of season in late August/early September.☀️

This time of year I love warm, comforting recipes that are super easy and delish. This ridiculously easy Chicken Tortilla Soup is a one pot meal, ready in under 30 minutes and uses already prepared rotisserie chicken for maximum flavor (and ease)! With a tasty blend of flavors and textures, it’s like a bowl full of comfort.

(AD) There has been a lot of cooking going on this year, so I’ve tried to make life a bit easier by getting creative with my leftovers. These pulled pork totchos are a great example of leftovers with a few key ingredients to create something new to keep our meals exciting. Adding a few key ingredients like @lamorenausa adobo peppers and jalapeños and carrots definitely livens up something simple. La Morena peppers are hand selected, using only the highest quality peppers to bring you authentic home style flavors of Mexico. I purchased my La Morena items from my local Safeway, but you can find them at your favorite grocery store in the international food section. #PayItForwardwithLM #VivaLaMorena #WeCanWithLaMorena 
 
INGREDIENTS:
- 32 oz tater tots
- 2 cups shredded cheese (Mexican blend + Pepper Jack)
- 2 cups prepared bbq pulled pork (check my pulled pork sliders recipe!)
- 1/2 can La Morena Adobo Peppers & Sauce
- 2 tablespoons sour cream 
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 1 cup pico de Gallo
- 1/2 cup guacamole
- 3 chopped green onions 
- 3-4 La Morena jalapeños and carrots, sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare tater tots as instructed, in air fryer or oven. Heat oven to 450°. 
Cover the bottom of a large cast iron skillet with the cooked tater tots. 
Top with 1 1/2 cup of cheese. 
Combine the chopped adobo peppers and sauce with the prepared bbq pulled pork. Spread the pulled pork mixture on top of the tater tots, then top with the remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Top with sour cream, ranch, pico de Gallo, guacamole, green onions, and sliced jalapeños and carrots.

Enjoy!! 😋

Happy December, all!! 🎄Since it’s basically Christmas now, it’s time to share ALL the holiday cookies! 

Every year I join my friend @natashanicholes as she heads up her #HousefulofCookies virtual cookie swap, where many of us share some sweet treats for the holiday season. 

This year I’ve created Cranberry Pistachio Citrus Cookies to share as my contribution. 🍪 I know that a lot of things have turned “virtual” throughout this year, but a little virtual bake-off is a fun way to connect with some of your favorite people!

Hello Instagram fam! 💖 There’s some new faces around here and it’s been a while since I showed mine!

I’m Dawn, creator of Mama Harris’ Kitchen, and I’m so glad you’re here with me! In this space I share my family-friendly recipes for all occasions, whether it be a 30-minute meal for those busy weeknight dinners or a full spread for entertaining a crowd - and everything in between.

Mama Harris’ Kitchen began back in 2012, in fact it’s 8 years this month! 🥳  What started as a way to document my newfound cooking hobby while managing my “new” life as a stay-at-home wife and mom to a 1 and 3 year along with teens and preteens, and it quickly grew into what it is now - a recipe resource for busy families like mine that enjoy flavorful and comforting home-cooking using pantry staples along with fresh and local ingredients as often as possible. 

🍿Five fun facts about me:
1. I LOVE elephants! 🐘 I collect a lot of elephant items, whether it’s trinkets or  artwork, notepads etc. I love what elephants symbolize and I truly love anything elephant related.
2. I’m a total plant lady! 🌱 I have about 35 houseplants, give or take, and there’s still more on the list of wants. Plants have become such a peaceful outlet for me, and I feel that they really center me within my space. I love the element plants bring to your space and the feel of your home with them in it, and new leaves are so exciting!
3. I have seven tattoos and I have plans for about eight more. 💉 Those that know me aren’t surprised, but those that follow me here tend to find it a bit surprising. 🙃
4. I’ve been a mother for a long time, over half my life! I’ve also been a lot of different “types” of mom - teen mom, single mom, working mom, stepmom, stay at home mom, PROUD mom, military mom, mother in law - the list goes on. No matter what, motherhood looks different for everyone and there’s unique challenges and experiences each mother faces. Please be gentle with yourself! ❤️At the end of the day we’re all just trying our best!
5. I’m a bit of an introvert, and often struggle with the “social” aspect of social media. I tend to go silent sometimes, but I’m working on it.

☀️Thank you for joining me here!
