5 minute Strawberry Quinoa Flake Bake

5 minute Strawberry Quinoa Flake Bake

This week has been crazy busy with training, consults, a flood of new work at the office, and a bunch of appointments with my coach, doctor, and Chiropractor. A busy week means literally no extra time to spend in the kitchen making fancy lunches. I had just 15 minutes a night to dedicate to packing…

Vegan Creamy Honey Dijon Salad + Omega Croutons

Since starting my cleanse I’ve become obsessed with salads. Thankfully, it’s a great obsession to have coming from a girl that really could use more veg in her life. Problem is I get bored with salad dressings very quickly so I’m always trying to switch things up to keep it exciting. Creamy honey dijon, creamy…

Cleanse Breaking Coconut Rum Balls

Cleanse Breaking Coconut Rum Balls

Okay so… rum is not part of my cleanse plan. And I know we’re so far away from Christmas that even the mention of rum balls may be depressing for some of you [sorry]. But with 12 inches of snowfall on Saturday, my mind + body was totally seasonally confused. It all started when I’d…

Spiced Flax Balls

Hi guys! Technically I’m not “here” right now. I scheduled this post before I left just because well, I couldn’t go an entire week without sharing this recipe with you. At this very moment I’ve probably just woken up to the sound of Tibetan chimes and am preparing for a quick jog around the lake…

4 Ingredient Itty Bitty Strawberry Coconut Tarts

I’m constantly wracking my brain over what treats I can make that Kevin will actually like. He’s a simple guy. No dried fruit, no bananas, and definitely no lentils or crazy spices! Meat is good, MEAT is even better, and chocolate? Well, that’s a definite win. But I wanted to do something different this time….

Candy Apple Macaroons + Sugar Reduced Journey

Candy Apple Macaroons + Sugar Reduced Journey

We had some very mixed feelings about carob yesterday. I had no idea that people could hate carob, but now I know! As many of you mentioned, the best way to welcome change is to believe in yourself. Believe that you can do it, that you will do it, and that whatever comes as a…

Goldilocks Scones

Happy Thursday everybody! What do you have planned today? On my to do list this morning: shoveling the driveway. Am I going to do it? Nah… I’m in denial over the snow we’ve been graciously given, so I think I’ll just ignore it and head to the gym instead. It’s great to hear that all…

Raw Cashew Lemon Drops + Cleansing

Spring has sprung! [says the girl with 6 inches of snow on her front lawn] The birds are chirping, the cows are mooing, and our bodies are saying “please, please cleanse me!” We’ve been hibernating in our houses, eating earthy vegetables, and surrounding our organs with extra TLC [it’s perfectly normal and expected to gain…
