Alright, friends. It’s time for talk about this once and for all, because it’s  one of the most asked questions that I get (and one of the most confusing categories of food out there). Especially for those you on a mission to be eating more real food than not.  It’s an emotional one for people, […]

The snack ball. Otherwise known as secret freezer weapons. I mean, I’ve always been a fan. And how can you not? They’re quick, easy, stay fresh for months in the freezer, and are packed full of great healthy fat, protein, minerals and SUBSTANCE when you don’t have time to think too hard about getting something […]

I have this thing (especially in the fall and winter) where I’m allergic to plates. I mean, everything is just better in a bowl. Salads, where the dressing gets cradled and you don’t have to stab. Soups. Roasted Veggies. Um. Spiralized noodles. Mini Meatballs. Desserts. Snacks. Or, the best possible situation– random combinations of leftover […]

I used to think I’d never be that kind of person who makes my own nut milk. Have you ever watched those videos or seen those recipes? It’s like a 2 day, 6 step process. With nut milk bags. Which – forgive me for being judgy, “nut milk bags” just sounds weird, and I don’t […]

Today, I’m sharing one of my all time favorite healthy appetizers from the Simply Real Health Cookbook (pg. 273 for those of you that have your books!) I don’t know about you, but every time I go to a party, the apps are always bread or flour based. Because it’s easy, no doubt. A classic option. Or more […]

One of the things that I love to tell people (for shock value alone sometimes), is to eat more butter. You know, the good quality, grass fed stuff. And use it on veggies instead of only reserving it for things that taste like nothing and give you nothing (sorry, pasta). If you use butter on your […]

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 […]

Tiny things are always better. They’re fascinating. And special. You may more attention to them. Which is good when we’re talking about eating cookies. Mindfulness is actually always a good thing when talking about what you’re eating. But even more so with desserts [and wine, and flour based stuff]. And even more so this time […]

This is my version of party food. Dinner party food. Even if a dinner party is just you and New Girl. Or because it’s Tuesday. Or that you just want to be a little fancy. Or, because you just bought the The Simply Real Health Cookbook and can’t wait to try some of the dinner recipes. […]

In this little transitional time between leaving winter and starting the spring, it can be hard to know what to be eating if you’re being a good little weather + seasonally dependent eater [which you are; if you’re reading this post. Maybe you didn’t even realize it, but you are if you follow the weekly […]

Peanut Butter Cookies. Gluten free, dairy free, and super easy. Simplified and healthified. It’s how I roll. If you’re trying to keep it healthier this spring holiday weekend, I’ve got a great little treat for you. A perfect little addition to any Easter or Passover celebration: flourless, refined sugar-free, dairy-free + gluten-free peanut butter cookies. […]

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. Brace yourself people. “Rolled oats” are not technically a true whole food. They are just a tiny (and not the healthy) part of the true whole grain known as […]
