Bombay Banana Smoothie
Our recent trip to Montreal was filled with food. It was the first, and only, trip I’ve ever been on where I ate out for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and still felt good about the food choices I was making. In fact, more often than not, I was having cleaner food than I do at…
No bake Lemon Cashew Squares
I enjoyed our mini vacation, but boy did I have a good time in the kitchen yesterday! It felt like it’d been ages since I’d cooked something. As nice as it was to eat out at fun restaurants in Montreal for 4 days straight, come day 3 I was ready for a simple home cooked…
Chicken Waldorf Salad
I enjoy my fair share of chicken, fish, and wild game meats, but you’d never know it from the recipes that I share here on the blog. Although I’d love to document my meat eating action and share with you the balance I maintain between plant and animal based proteins, I’m sad to admit that…
Blueberry Fiber Muffins + Extreme Green Salad Dressing
Did you have a great weekend? Ours was so jam-packed with activities that I feel like I’ve been away from the office in ages. Always a good thing :) Kevin and I attended an afternoon showing of Batman on Friday. We were a bit disappointed in the movie, a view we’re 100% alone on when…
Blushing Apple Smoothie
I’ve fallen head over heals for cherries. We found ourselves at the Farmers Market last weekend and within moments of getting through the door, I took a bee-line straight to the rows of fresh cherries. The fact that I already had 3 bags of them sitting at home didn’t phase me. Farmer’s Market cherries? Fat…
Grain-free Lemonade Doughnuts
It’s Kevin’s (30th!) birthday tomorrow and while store-bought presents are nice, I wanted to come up with a special treat for him instead. To help inspire me in the kitchen and keep me on track; because I usually get distracted when I’m creating a recipe and end up with something completely different than what I’d…
Tomato Basil Salad
Just 18 days until the life I’ve always dreamed for myself begins. The suspense is killing me! Pushing myself to travel to India alone, despite my fears and reservations, helped me to believe in myself – a gift that no one can take away from you. It also happens to be a gift that may…
Sweet Potato Cooler and Summer Lovin’ Salad
We just may have a warm, rain-free weekend upon us! Oh I hope I haven’t jinxed it by saying that. My sister, Dad and I are headed to the Stampede to hit up the gluten-free eats on the midway and rock out to George Canyon at the Coca Cola Stage on Sunday night. There’s nothing…
Ultra Green Smoothie
Our weekend filled with adventures and socializing was a nice break from spending my time alone in the kitchen. I love cooking, but sometimes a girl just needs a break! It wasn’t until Monday morning that I realized I had absolutely no meals prepared for the day ahead. I had to wing it and pack…
Happy Tummy Breakfast Pudding
Have you ever experienced one of those weeks where nothing is moving as it should? Your digestion is slow, your tummy is cramped, and you swear you’ve never been this bloated ever. I know, it may be a bit embarrassing to admit or talk about, but everyone goes through it at one time or another…….
