Grace's grocery guide v.24
From salted caramel protein bites to garlic steak bowls, here's your weekly meal inspiration so you can fuel your body with healthy, nourishing, and delicious food all week long!
Happy Saturday! My top three favorites from this week included doing yoga for my daily movement, starting Carley Fortune’s new summer read, and heading out of town to spend time with our dear friends before attending a wedding.
I have been reflecting a lot on the idea of progress over perfection lately. You may have read my recent blog on the topic or seen a glimpse of my story on social media, but I believe it is key to achieving your goals with patience and gratitude. Whether you are working towards living a healthier life, building a successful career, growing a family, or something else, it’s important to show gratitude for the progress that happens. You have the power to show up every day, and do a little better than the day before. This is something that is celebrated in the practice of yoga - showing up and holding a pose a little longer than the day before.
What would it look like for you to celebrate progress on a goal you are currently working toward? Reply directly to this newsletter or let me know in the comments!

Creamy, sweet, and savory, this Creamy tomato pink pasta with garlicky ground beef is a different take on the classic vodka pasta. Packed with extra protein and nutrients, you have to try this! Not only is this dish gluten and dairy free thanks to coconut milk and an alternative pasta brand, but it also has some added health benefits. My husband, Will, absolutely raved about this dish. I hope you will too!

Gluten-free mini beef sliders with simple kale salad
Enjoy these Gluten-free mini burger sliders with kale salad, with a salty hash brown base and a creamy burger sauce to top. I always love discovering brands that offer alternatives to a classic ingredient, like a hash brown.
