Summertime. Aka, the very best time. (If you’re asking this totally biased, Seattle based sun-baby). But come on. How can you not want to shout- halle-freakin-lujah for the season of freedom, joy, sunshine, fresh air, cool water, and a few extra juicy hours each day to play, relax and just BE around those you love […]

Every season, you guys know I get obsessed with one salad. ??‍♀️  Always a fan-girl of keeping things SIMPLE & super efficient, it then becomes my go-to for literally everything that season: busy work week lunches (if made ahead), quick dinners that don’t require tons of thought or planning, easy picnic nights, or bringing something […]

Let’s talk brunch. A usually boozy, sugar or processed-grain filled fest, brunch is something that always sounds so fun and festive, but can often leave us feeling bloated, too full, and in need of a nap all before 1pm on our treasured little weekend days. So what about upgrading some it? To keep all the […]

Like souped-up power fairies, straight to the veins. Don’t even tell me I’m the only one that envisions this every time I take a sip of a thoughtfully crafted lil green smoothie.  And while we’re on the topic…. I literally can’t stop with this mid-day combo lately.  All the fairies, all the energy, all sustained […]

YES, I DO eat potatoes. White ones. Fries even, when we go out. And get this— with no shame. I’m actually proud of it, and love every crunchy or creamy little bite. Wanna know why? Because for most of my life, I avoided them like the plague. Because every diet out there says they’re evil. “Empty […]

I have to admit. When I cook a little homemade dinner, even after a crazy day, I feel like I’m winning at life. It’s like this soothing little routine that says- you got this mamma. It’s like wrapping yourself (and anyone lucky enough to be around you) up in this magical cozy goodness that promises […]

The secret for a more effortlessly healthy and #antidiet life? Even though I knoooow, it’s so tempting this time of year to do an elimination diet or set plan to get “back on track”. But, I have another idea: 1. Infuse with more good. Meaning do and eat more of the things that you KNOW make you […]

Drench me in allllll the goodness please / -my cells.  I admitted my worst fears over on instagram this week: getting sick for the first time in over 10 years. My ego didn’t like it. For crying out loud body, don’t you know that this is what I do?! I’m walking, talking proof that if […]

All the fun of the cookie, minus the sugar crash. Because why choose between the two if you don’t have to?! Equal parts sweet & spice, these cuties are only everything nice this time of year. Like tiny little fridge weapons, ready for you whenever those “other” cookies/cakes/all the holiday things and cravings call. Happy bites, […]

Sunday bowls to fill our souls is a thing around here. And maybe more importantly, dinner is totally done for the next 2 nights so I can get back to the big stuff in life.  Tonight on tap: a little Ella Fitzgerald on the speakers, @lecole41 red wine in our glasses, this new roasted poblano chicken tortilla […]

Mashed potatoes, made healthy? You’ll believe it when you taste these. Did you know that olive oil can easily replace the heavier cream, butter and flour found in most classic recipes? And…wait for it: still taste just as good? No sacrifices here. I mean, don’t get me wrong, some good quality grass-fed butter and cream […]
