Healthy porridge made with fresh roasted butternut squash, gently scooped and surrounded with fresh cashew milk, toasted coconut and ginger chunks. I usually go for savory breakfasts over sweet only because if I start the day with an overly sweet breakfast, I’ll be craving sugar all day long.
Greens bowl loaded with steamed greens, paprika roasted almonds and a creamy mushroom sauce. When your body is not getting estrogen, it has a hard time maintaining bone density – a major problem for someone who hasn’t been producing estrogen for over 5 years (aka me).
A spicy pumpkin-based curry with pureed pumpkin, roasted pumpkin cubes and a coconut milk and vegetable-based broth. No tomatoes, grain-free and ultra soothing. Going to India last year (by myself) was the wisest, scariest, most satisfying thing I’ve ever done. I fell in love with the feeling of being free, I connected with myself in…
A healthy vegetable and fruit-based smoothie, made into fruit leathers for the perfect portable snack. It will work with any of your favorite smoothie recipes! It’s hard to believe that I’m already on day 4 of my 5-day juice kit-cleanse from Total Cleanse. As nice as it is to have full control over the juices…
It’s been almost 2 months since I began hormone replacement therapy (HRT). The first couple of weeks were a bit rocky with minor sleeping issues, nausea, nervousness and irrational thoughts & behaviors. But, I am feeling pretty good now.

There is so much behind the scenes action happening over here! I’ve partnered up with a group of awesome individuals that are working with me to create some pretty radical stuff. Every project is just as exciting as the one behind it and I am ultra-proud of everything that we’re creating.
Kevin has turned into a dairy-free milk monster. He adds it to his ginormous bowls of protein oats, whips up 1-2 protein smoothies per day, and even drinks the stuff! Coming from a guy who used to live on frozen meals and Cherrios (with 2% milk)… we’ve come a far ways.
Power Posse Post by Ricki Heller, Author of Naturally Sweet and Gluten-free As someone who has spent most of her adult life either baking, eating, or selling decadent desserts, I’ve come to accept that I am (and always will be) an ardent dessert fiend. If it’s sweet, or if it’s a baked good, I love…
This sugar-free, gluten-free waffle recipe was not intentional. Originally, I was aiming for a muffin recipe but the batter was too runny and my oven wasn’t cooperating with me.
