The sun is shining. It’s just about that time. Time for a new green smoothie recipe, of course. Oh, you thought you can keep making the same one over and over? Well, you can. But I don’t reccommend it. Why? Well, wouldn’t you like to know? I guess you’ll have to watch the video and […]

Quinoa’s going mainstream. It’s by no means “new”– it’s one of the most ancient foods out there– but maybe that’s why it’s more suddenly cool. Like vintage clothes and trinkets. Whatever it is, I’m not complaining. Maybe that should be my new marketing tactic. It’s so “vintage” to eat real food. From dreadlock crowded juice […]

I’ve been holding out on this recipe for a little while. Mostly, not to be hypocritical. You see, “rolled oats” are one of the ingredients. And.

Ingredients: 10 fuji, gala or golden delicious apples (any assortment) 3/4 cup water cinnamon- lots of it Directions: Slice apples into smaller sized chunks. 2Add […]

There are some HUGE things happening around here. But today, I’ll keep it short and sweet. As long as you promise to stay tuned in the coming week. Deal? Deal. These delicious little bites are traditionally made for dessert. But. I’m currently picking crumbs out of my keyboard this Sunday morning. Hey. From a health […]

Never tried a green smoothie? They are a  great, easy way to get more of the good stuff in. It’s the perfect go-to food, especially on busy […]
