Just a little note to tell you that you need this banana bread in your life. For this weekend’s brunch, let’s say.  It’s one of my very favorites from the cookbook. And, this past Sunday as I was stirring away getting ready for a little friends brunch we were hosting, I was caught off-guard for a […]

Real talk for a second here. If I’m being honest, the Simply Real Health Group Program has been in the works in my head (and heart) for well over a year. Isn’t that crazy? So, why did it take me so long to launch it? I know you’re dying to ask.  Well, truthfully, because I […]

You all know I love my green smoothies (especially for lunch), but sometimes a girl just wants to eat her lunch with a spoon. And chew. And crunch around a little bit. But still get that same oooo-weeeee baby! powered up and ready to go feeling that only green smoothies can do. And lately, I just […]

They are changing the game for wedding registries, making it way easier to gather items that you love and will actually […]

You wanna know what’s crazy? This salad. Along with the Pesto Kale Salad, this is the dish that I make the most often in my kitchen (to eat myself), and bring everywhere, converting people to lentil lovers. It works, in case you were wondering. I actually can’t think of a party or dinner that I […]

This past Sunday, I was asked to “do the food” for a photoshoot and dinner style event with some pretty amazing + crazy talented ladies [see their drool worthy work + instagram feeds at the bottom of this post, you won’t be sorry]. But, more about that project later. Because if you’re here, I know […]

When the topic is chocolate, there’s no point in messing around today. It’s serious business. Let’s get right to it. You almost don’t need me to tell you why you should make this recipe, because, let’s be honest. It’s CHOCOLATE. And on a healthy blog, which means GUILT FREE. See? I know you. It’s like getting […]

As we zoom in on the week of cookbook arrival, I’ve gotten a few questions from people on why I chose to do this project, and how exactly it worked to do it in under a year’s time. So, I thought it would be fun to take you all through my process, and share a little […]
