Have to confess, I have never - as in ever - baked or cooked with almond flour. I have bought it before but never ended up using it. Why, you wonder? What health coach doesn't use almond flour? It's for personal reasons - our daughter is allergic to all tree nuts and I always felt [...]

Cravings are a funny thing right? After a phone conversation with a dear friend, I was inspired to make these zucchini fries.

So funny, because I never even gave a thought to parsnips before Thanksgiving 2019. To be 100% honest, I never even knew what they were. Well, my aunt brought whipped parsnips to our holiday dinner and I was over the moon in love with them. For a year now, I have been saying - "I [...]

"How To Not Gain During Holiday Season" Do you tend to overdo it over the holidays? As in everything? The spending, your time, the cooking, the wrapping, the cleaning, and the eating. It’s almost considered the season of indulgence anymore. Just overdoing it on all levels. My typical Christmas season in the past would start [...]

If you take a close look at this recipe, it's pretty basic ingredients. One of the biggest misconceptions with eating healthy and "clean" is that it's too hard and time consuming to prepare the food. I would have to disagree with that statement. My past go to's included lasagna, chicken parmesan, meatballs and sauce from scratch. While yes, [...]

Oh wait, did I forget to mention pandemic in this newsletter title?! Well, let’s just say, we certainly have a lot on our plates right now. It’s that spooky time of year – oh my! I don’t know what’s scarier – the thought of the oh so tempting Halloween candy, the upcoming election or losing [...]

“Approaching Processed Foods - 101” Silly me…. I commonly forget that not everyone truly knows what the difference between the two are.

The name “natural flavors” sound pretty healthy, right? When you hear that anything is natural, you automatically make the healthy connection. Well I am here to clear that up for you.

If you know me at all, you may know that I am a big fan of clean eating. Maybe, just a little bit? 😊 Put a burger and fries in front of me and then leafy greens with chickpea salad and I will definitely pick the salad. I just don’t like feeling the wrath of [...]

Yikes! So, let’s back track a bit here. I know – who really wants to go back to the dreaded March of 2020? When the pandemic arrived, I hit the panic button. At first, we thought – things will be shut down for a week or two. Then that quickly expanded to one month and [...]
