    There’s More to Health than What You Eat…

    I debated long and hard about writing this post, probably lots of overthinking, but when I realized that sharing my journey is not only what this blog is all about, there’s also a chance it could help someone else. I had a big wake-up call this summer and knowing that all of it could have…

  • REVIEW: August Favorites

    REVIEW: August Favorites

    Happy (almost) September, my friends! Can’t believe that we’re that much closer to fall…my ABSOLUTE favorite season. August was all about taking it easy with experimenting in the kitchen, some nice hikes, fresh air, and time with family. One highlight from August was watching the Perseid meteor shower. Did any of you get to enjoy…

  • RECIPE: Spicy Chickpea & Kale Salad

    This Chickpea & Kale Salad is similar to your standard chickpea mash, but with a little spice and greens thrown in. It’s creamy, full of flavor, and easily customizable! Pair it with some celery + carrot sticks for a quick snack or turn it into a main meal as a big salad or sandwich.  I…

  • RECIPE: Raw “Granola”

    *I apologize for those seeing this post for a second time – for some reason it got published way before I had it scheduled for and this isn’t the first time something like this has happened! Sorry, guys!* If there’s one ingredient I miss more than anything, I would have to say oats. They’re so…

  • REVIEW: July Favorites

    Hello, friends and happy August! I think this is my first favorites post that doesn’t include recipes…we’ve been living on smoothies and salads this summer, so that has meant going back to the basics AND no oven use. My list of “need to try” recipes continues to grow and I’m pretty sure come fall, I’ll…

    Hello, everyone and Happy Summer! I can’t believe it’s been almost a month since my last blog post – I promise I’ve got some fun recipes coming and some new products for my Etsy shop this summer.  I’ve got a brief, early edition of my favorites for you since we’re heading out of town tomorrow…

  • REVIEW: May Favorites

    Hello, friends!! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend! Did you get up to anything exciting?! We had a pretty low-key weekend which was nice compared to the month or so we’ve been having. Managed to get out on some hikes during the month of May and just spend time together as a family.…

  • RECIPE: Raw “Breaded” Italian Zucchini Chips

    If you follow me on Instagram, chances are you saw the teaser for these last week! This crispy little snack is super addictive like your favorite bag of chips, but without the oil or guilt. Willow and I couldn’t stop eating them right off the dehydrator trays – so they’re also kid-approved! They’re cheezy, zesty,…

  • My Fully Raw Week and What I Ate

    In an effort to reset my system and heal my body of any damage from the emotional eating these last few months, I chose to do a week of fully raw. No cooked foods, no oil, only fruit-sweetened, and consumed as much fresh fruit and veggies as my body craved. Things have been stressful and…
