Cinnamon Roll Flax Almond Butter
Oh boy do I have a treat for us today! I’ve gotten back into making my own nut butters (enjoying a tablespoon or so drizzled over a fresh cut apple as a post yoga snack) and this latest batch is better than any other nut butter I’ve ever made. It’s more satisfying than my Vanilla…
Rosemary Sweet Potato Wedges with Skinny Garlic Aioli
I was raised to believe that all goats were good for was hopping through pastures and eating grass. It wasn’t until I began working closely with Happy Days Dairies that I fully began to appreciate just how awesome goats really are. Turns out these friendly little creatures create milk with quite an awesome nutrient profile….
Brussels Bowl with Cauliflower “Rice” and Rosemary Sauce
There are so many things that I love about this meal. I’ve wondered if grains were bothersome to my body for awhile but the reaction was so faint, so barely there, that I didn’t pay much attention to it. The key to becoming the healthy, balanced being that we all strive for is listening to…
Citrus Salsa with Salmon and Bok Choy
The weather’s been strange here. Wait, let me rephrase that… I’m not used to living in a snow-free city in November. The sun is shining, I find myself wearing light jackets, sweaters and I even got away with wearing shorts on Monday. Shorts in November… that’s madness! As a result, today’s cleanse recipe has bright…

Apricot Ginger Chia Chews
Cleanse day 5. Oh heck ya. We’ve done a full day of liquids, ate more veggies than we ever thought possible, and resisted cravings left, right and sideways. Nicely done! Make sure to check back over the weekend to view the meal plan for week two of our cleanse. Cravings got you down? You’re not…
Pearrific Green Smoothie
In October, I embarked on a self-guided 30 day yoga challenge to help sooth my emotions surrounding our recent move to Montreal. My intention for the month was to grow roots in this new city, begin to feel like I belong somewhere, let go of my fears and embrace the longing I had to return…
Roasted Garlic Soup
We’re on to day 3 of our two week cleanse. How’s everyone feeling? I know you may be trailing behind due to having to get groceries and prepare yourself mentally, but whatever day you’re on, even if you intend to start next week, we’re in it together. Over 100 of us have committed to this…
North Pole Green Juice
I remember the day my Mom came home with a juicer… it was a scary. Her eyes lit up with excitement, she said something about beets, spinach… kale. I remember thinking, ‘Dad hates beets, what person likes spinach, and what the heck is a kale?’ I liked my veggies with butter, dressings and spices, not…
Can’t Beet This Smoothie
October and November are the perfect months to detox our bodies in preparation for the long Winter ahead. There’s a 3 week cleanse program going on right now with whole food eats and while I haven’t been following it fully due to all the Halloween treats, I’ve been upping my fresh juice and smoothie intake…
