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 […]

What a week you guys! The Simply Real Life Program officially closed for enrollment on Monday, and as I gear up for the next six weeks of live group coaching with them, one thing is for sure: my energy needs to kill it…. and keep killing it for weeks on end. Oh, you too? Because #reallife? So today, […]

Most of the time, I don’t waste my time with baking. It’s the free spirit 4 year old that lives inside of me. Measuring is for babies.  Paired with my inability to resist, um…”upgrading” the ingredients…. and well. You can imagine what sort of treats come out of this kitchen on the reg. It’s mostly […]

Missed my full matcha guide post a few weeks ago, did you?  Well, before you dive into this one today, you’ll want to read it first to know what this matcha obsession of mine is all about, where to find it, and why it’s so good for you. Then, we can talk about doughnuts, mmm k? […]

So, I posted this guy on instagram last week before we were heading out to a little BBQ, and immediately got 10 messages to please post the recipe. Oh, you guys. You mean, you’d like to have the ultimate summer picnic/BBQ perfect/easy healthy recipe/and my new favorite make-ahead dish, too? I should have known. Wait. […]

As I write this, I’m waiting to board the plane… to my WEDDING! WHAT?! 🙂 I’m so excited, I can barely type straight. And, I know, I know. I told myself (and you) I would take this week off from blogging. But, turns out, I don’t want to. Mainly, because you guys actually need this. It’s […]

So, it’s been a little crazy over here, but hey, so is normal life right? Totes. I define “crazy”, when even I “modify” (laz-ify) one of my recipes from the cookbook, that’s easy to begin with. A weird way to measure life, but it’s always true. The shortcut to the shortcut. Sign this girl up. […]

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 […]

Let’s face it: If all that’s in your oven is cookies, all you’re gonna eat is cookies. If you have enough patience to be baking up those treats, trust me, you have more than enough time for some good food baking too. Let’s compromise, at least. Stick these in the oven WITH your cookies, and everyone wins. Like […]

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 […]
