Valentine’s Hot Chocolate Float
I have to start off by thanking each one of you for the most successful month Healthful Pursuit has had so far! January was full of great conversations, questions, and a whole bunch of introductions. Thank you all for your continued support, love, and inspiration! HP would be nothing without you! Last week we enjoyed…
Garden Patch Bison and Elk Burgers
My earphones are alive! I have a new found respect for iPod earphones. I remembered a coworker suggesting that I put my iPhone in rice when I dropped it in my water bottle [don’t ask… I have a thing with electronics.]. So, when my iPod earphones were put through the wash on Saturday night, I…
Strawberry Almond Birds Nest Cookies
I went down memory lane making these cookies yesterday. I grew up in a fairly healthy household. We didn’t have a lot of money, but my mom tried the best she could to feed us the healthiest and highest quality ingredients. My dad was another story. He grew up with the notion – food is…
Apple Butter Barbecue Sauce
Mmmm look at those burgers… the recipe for these babies will be coming in a couple of days. Ooo they’re delicious! I’m behind on so many chores it’s unbelievable. Vacuuming? Nah, it can wait, I’m making cookies! Cleaning the toilet? Nope, can’t do it now, I’m whipping up some muffins! Making the bed? I’ll do…
No bake Brownie Fifteens
I woke up this morning to a toe hole in my favourite Burton socks. I cried a little inside. I love those socks. I would have taken a picture but, let’s be honest, foot pictures? eak! On with the eats… No bake Vanilla Fifteens were a huge success, high five! [I’m such a nerd] I…
In a Jiffy Bean Salad
Until a couple of years ago, I thought salt, was salt. Table salt, sea salt, it’s all the same and it’s all bad for you. Right? Wrong! Did you know there are actually therapeutic benefits to certain salts? Or that if taken correctly, salt can actually be good for your health? I know, you’re thinking…
Crispy Coated Apple Fries
I am big on homemade fries with coconut oil. There was a period in my life, not so long ago, where all I’d eat for dinner were fries. Don’t get me wrong, potatoes are an amazing vegetable. They’re high in vitamin C, fiber, their easy on the digestive system, and high in vitamin b6 [great…
Irresistible Chocolate Truffle Cookies
I was going to begin today’s post by saying “I’ve never been a big fan of Valentine’s Day”, but I’d be lying. Although I say that I don’t celebrate, or care, year after year I find myself running to a craft store on February 13th getting supplies for a homemade present for Kevin. I just…
Hit the Spot Chicken Marinara Melt
Our homemade mini studio isn’t quite ready. We’ve decided to add one more layer of paint before setting things up. Dun, dun, duh… I’m so excited to use it, and show all of you what we’ve made! I’m hoping that by the weekend everything will be ready and rearing to go, and I can spend…
Apple, Spice and Everything Nice Bars
Our past weekend was filled with creativity, screws, and paint! Once we had a plan, we spent Sunday building a studio in our dining room. More details to come once the paint dries. Also – I’ve finally posted my training schedule from August to present and new marathon preparation schedule. You can read about my…
