Plantain Bean Salad
A light bean salad recipe made with chunks of plantains and a naturally sweetened dressing. Kevin and I are MARRIED and off enjoying ourselves on our honeymoon for the next couple of weeks. I’ll be in and out, sharing our stories along the way, inviting guests to share new recipes and continuing with our 8-week…
Caramel Apple Cupcakes (gluten-free + paleo)
Congratulations, Liz! You’re the winner of the Natural Vitality $60 gift card! Thank you all for participating :) I remember hearing this for the first time (while studying holistic nutrition at CSNN) and being pretty upset about it… It is impossible to get all the nutrients your body needs from the food you eat. No…
Triple Threat Green Smoothie
I always thought that a green smoothie had to be made with juice or milk. That it had to be sweet, thick and filling. And, because of the loads of healthy fats and protein, that a green smoothie just couldn’t be less than 300 calories.
Love Your Greens Juice
We’re rockin’ into day 2 of the cleanse. How are you doing? I’m a bit tired and my skin is doing something funky – blemishes galore up in ‘her, but otherwise I’m feeling great. It’s normal, when doing a cleanse, to feel a bit slow and tired, so I’m not too concerned. Slow and steady…
Mediterranean Vegan Stew
I’m headed on a little solo trip to NYC this morning for a 4 day photography workshop coupled with 3 days of checking out some of the best gluten-free meals the big apple has to offer. I’ll be posting oodles of pictures on Instagram if you’d like to join me in my hostel staying, subway…
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…
Witches Brew Breakfast Pudding
I had a history of choosing the same Halloween costume year after year when I was a kid. Did you, too? I was a princess, then a queen, Cinderella… well, you get the idea. Royalty was kind of my thing. My sister on the other hand liked to be scary characters a witch, goblin, ghost,…
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…
Key Lime Pie Green Smoothie
Who doesn’t like pie, smoothies and graham crackers? Or, limes, frothy toppings and sweet breakfasts? Big mugs, green things, and meals packed with goodness? All of these things? Can be your next green smoothie. Because green smoothies don’t have to be a “pinch your nose to scarf it down” experience. They can taste like pie…
Mint Chocolate Chip Smoothie
The weather is getting warmer, days are longer, and all I can think about are salads, green smoothies and lemon water. Are you feeling the same? If so, it’s a good indication that your body is shifting gears from a Winter supporting diet to a Spring one. Spring is the season of purification. Greens, additional…
