Last week on instagram, I snapped a quick little pic of my insane trail mix meal prep- making over 250 little bags of goodness for an upcoming healthy tailgate party and cooking demo (Thursday, and…. yes that’s a real thing) and a charity walk that weekend. With homemade caramel corn, nuts, pumpkin seeds, coconut, golden […]

Just a little quickie today. I’m in charge of apps for dinner club tonight, and short on time (yo, what else is new). Nitrate-free Prosciutto Wrapped Apples. 10 minutes and done. To the rescue. Because, healthy food is real food. and real food is beautiful food. Simple as that. Don’t forget it. Happy Fall y’all. xoxo, S Prosciutto […]

Not at all sexy. But definately real (life) right now. This week has already been a crazy ride and it’s only Tuesday. I have nothing in my fridge, and no time for the store today. And, I’m hungry. So, this is lunch: canned garbanzo beans (rinsed) and drizzled with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, sea salt […]

  click to watch this video post! Do I have kids? No. Not yet, at least. But I have worked with a lot. A lot. And their parents to revamp and re-educate around healthy food and what it actually is. And, probably more importantly, what’s for dinner (and breakfast and lunch and snack too). And how […]

Let’s play a game today. Just so you can test yourself. Before you wreck yourself. It’s one of my favorites. And if you’ve seen me speak before, you know exactly what I’m talking about. Still play. Because when I posted about it earlier this week on Instagram and Facebook, I was surprised at people’s answers. […]

Yup, round 3 today. On VIDEO. [If you haven’t seen ’em yet, check out round 1 and round 2 videos first]. Mostly because I think shopping at Trader Joe’s is both a hobby AND game. And that I happen to be living inside my local one these days with all this crazy cookbook cooking, so […]

Truth: every homemade ice cream recipe I’ve ever seen gets me so excited. Don’t be shocked. Ice cream is a simple food. It has 5 ingredients max, when made well. And is one of the best parts about summer. I’m into it. Until I read the recipe. And pout. “Combine all ingredients in your ice […]

Saying the word “snack” makes people’s faces light up. Like they’ve won something awesome. A free coffee, maybe. Or car. Have you every noticed? Fact: Americans (we) love our snacks. Think that we need them. And to be real, most people do. Because when you eat food that isn’t real [otherwise known as processed food […]

Coffee drinking, as a topic. It goes like this. I like coffee. I’m not above it, health wise. I have it sometimes. When I need it. Or really want it. I think it can be a beautiful thing. Iced, only. With a little bit of coconut water, thank you very much. But only the organic […]

I know you just want this recipe. To scroll to the bottom so you can make it tonight. I don’t blame you. I’d probably do the same. But the reason why I made it might fascinate you. So. Lately, I’ve been prepping for busy season, and taking on the biggest project and challenge that I’ve […]

It had to have been November. Right after I shot the videos for my Favorite Picks at Trader Joe’s [see round 1 + round 2 here]. You guys liked it. Asked for more. So, I shot another video around the same time, showing my favorite picks at Whole Foods + my favorite local spot, PCC […]
