We all like a good green smoothie, ya? Something about getting all those fruits and veggies leave me feeling glowy AF. It’s very much that Vitamin-Mineral Glow. Sure you could do a green juice, but I much prefer a good smoothie. They both are a liquid shot of nutrients. But a Healthy Skin Green Smoothie …
Breaking out my recipe for theeeee Best Walnut Banana Bread! Why have I waited so long to share this little delight with you all? After all, Walnut Banana Bread was my breakfast staple for the longest time. But as of late, I haven’t thought much about it. If I had to …
It’s pretty common for me to take bit of flack when it comes to my healthy eating habits, especially from my family. After all, dietitians are better known as the food police. (Insert eye-roll here). I’m often the butt of many healthy eating memes that get sent my way. My sister is always on …
We’re not messing around here. I’m going to keep the pumpkin spice flowing around here, starting with this Pumpkin Spice Chia Seed Pudding. The weather may not know what season it is around here, but I sure do! One day it’s 40 degrees and the next we are pushing 90. I can’t decide …
Simple Scrambled Egg Muffins to the rescue! And rescue me they did. This time of year is always hectic for me. The hubby works crazy long hours, seven days a week. I’m still a sucker and make sure to pack his lunch on a daily basis. However, this time of year, it’s more than …
Making mornings easy with these Double Chocolate Paleo Muffins! For most of us, September brings busy mornings. Maybe you’re sending your kids off to school. Or maybe your work schedule starts to tighten up with the end of summer approaching. And maybe your husband works crazy hours for the next eight weeks and barely …
We’re talking brekkie today! Can you say –> Instant Pot Coconut Milk Yogurt! Anyone that knows me, knows I’m a die-hard dairy fan. Unfortunately, my skin isn’t. I just want all the ice cream, yogurt, and cheese please. One of things I miss most is having my yogurt in the morning. I swear …
Let’s talk breakfast. More specifically –> Dark Chocolate Flaxseed Waffles Since starting my elimination diet (see more on that here), the cravings have been coming out of the woodwork. Seriously, though. All the things I never thought twice about before, I WANT. And I want them bad. Normally, I’m pretty down with eggs for …
Today I’m bringing you guys my recipe for Homemade Cherry Chia Seed Jam! Do you guys love jam just as much as I do? After all, my grandma’s always keep my fridge stocked with the good stuff. The homemade stuff will beat out the store EVERY, SINGLE, TIME. However, for the last couple years, …
Key Lime Pie Protein Smoothie —> The solution to a nutritious breakfast when you are on the run. Or when you just want a nutritious, sweet treat. Your call. I don’t know about you, but my mornings have been unusually hectic lately. There hasn’t been much time for me to sit down and …
Over the last couple months, I’ve had a great response to my original Instant Pot yogurt recipe. Would you believe that was my very first attempt at an Instant Pot recipe?! If you don’t have a pressure cooker yet, you need one in your life. Since the original was so successful, I thought why not …
Over the last few months, I’ve been dying to get my hands on an Instant Pot. If you’ve been on Pinterest, you’ve probably heard they are all the rage. Yep, me too. Basically, it’s a little wonder pot that can do it all. It acts as a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, …
I always talk about how I’m not much of a breakfast person. I’m perfectly content with some fruit and Greek yogurt or a bowl of overnight oats. Just a no-fuss breakfast kind of gal. But today was a new day. Since I worked this past weekend at the hospital, I have a couple extra days …
You’ve all heard me whining about the frigid cold that’s hit the Midwest in the last few weeks. Okay, maybe “frigid” is a bit dramatic. It’s 30s and 40s, but it sure feels cold after the bout of 80 degree weather that hit a few weeks back. Regardless, I’ve been having a pretty hard time …
Fall is in full force around here. Last week I was wearing shorts and eating ice cream while sweating my tail off in the 90 degree heat wave. This week, we are barely reaching the mid-50s. And the rain, all the rain, it is miserably dreary out. You bet I am wearing all the cozy …
