Paleo Lemon Blueberry Raspberry Bread

This Paleo Lemon Blueberry Raspberry Bread is a tasty Spring-inspired quick-bread made with almond and coconut flour. It’s healthy enough for breakfast and just sweet enough to satisfy as a lovely dessert!

In a world where most of our rhythms and routines are a little out of sync, is it odd that a grocery store somehow brings a sense of normalcy to things?…

Avocado Egg Salad Sandwich with Sprouts

I can hardly believe it’s already April and Spring is in full bloom. But I’m SO very thankful for the warm weather and sunshine! The kids and I have been spending time outside every chance we get. Whether they’ve got all their outdoor riding toys and playing on our driveway, we’re working in the flower beds, or playing in the post-rain puddles, being outside nourishes my soul…

Easy Spinach Pesto Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

So much yumminess in this Easy Spinach Pesto Grilled Cheese with it’s smoldering Muenster cheese, garlic green-pesto-goodness and golden toasted gluten-free bread!

I know, a grilled cheese sandwich hardly seems blog worthy. BUT, before you get all judgy on me {not that I actually think any of you are judgy☺}, let me plead my case…

Memorial Day Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Frozen Yogurt

I hadn’t planned on sharing something sweet this week. I had planned on sharing the recipe for these {oh-so-yummy} Roasted Brussels Spouts Bowl with Poached Eggs. But sometimes plans change. And once I started down memory lane and got this Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Frozen Yogurt in my head, it felt like the perfect recipe to share before Memorial Day weekend…

Kale Salad with Roasted Delicata Squash and Pearl Barley

Truth be told, I’m more of a spinach-kinda-girl than a kale-kinda-girl. I know kale is a superfood and what-not, but I find I just tend to gravitate to spinach… And I’m not entirely sure why. I think I’m just a habitual person. Every week I grab a 16 oz tub of organic spinach and another one that’s a spinach blend of some sort…

Gluten-Free Three Cheese Sun-dried Tomato Pizza with Pesto

First and foremost: this Gluten-Free Three Cheese Sun-dried Tomato Pizza with Pesto – so good!

First and foremost: this Gluten-Free Three Cheese Sun-dried Tomato Pizza with Pesto – so good!

Second: I’m so excited to not only bring you this recipe, but to be teaming up with Sprouts and their Coast-to-Coast Blogger Network to create this gluten-free recipe guide, 7 Gluten-Free Recipes to Get Cookin’…

Seven Healthy Treats for Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and whether it’s a significant other, kiddos, your mom and dad, or a close friend, it’s always fun to make a little sweet for someone special in your life…

Raw Lemon Poppy Seed Bites + New House

I’m sure food-blogger coaches or growth strategists would say I’m suppose to talk about these Raw Lemon Poppy Seed Bites, preferably in the first paragraph of my text…using key-words to help the recipe pull up better in search engines. No doubt, I should tell you about their cookie dough texture and how the natural sweetness from the honey contrasts perfectly the slight tartness from the lemon zest…

Blueberry Pecan Balsamic Vinaigrette

This Blueberry Pecan Balsamic Vinaigrette is another quick, simple recipe. After the overwhelming response I received to these Southwest Sweet Potato Lettuce Wraps, in light of my initial hesitations and concerns that it wasn’t “good enough”, I now humbly realize that people like simple. Especially when simple can also be healthy!…

Cauliflower Alfredo Veggie Pizza

I knew I loved all things sweets and salads {come to think of it, that might have been a better name for my blog…off subject}, but I didn’t realize I loved pizza quite so much. Being that this Cauliflower Alfredo Veggie Pizza is my fifth pizza post in the short time I’ve been blogging, it’s becoming pretty clear that I adore pizza in all varieties…

Zucchini Fettuccine and Cauliflower Alfredo

I’ve written about personal things a couple of times here and each time I find myself surprised by the acceptance and embrace of my readers. I’m still young in this blog world, and still trying to find my voice. But it’s such a relief to know that I can just be me, whoever that is. So before I talk about this Zucchini Fettuccine and Cauliflower Alfredo, I’d love to be candid for a few minutes…

Avocado Deviled Eggs with Smoked Paprika

I am no expert eggs-pert {yes, I just did that… tried to type egg expert and heard the play on words in my head and couldn’t resist!} when it comes to deviled eggs. In fact, before making these lovely little green Avocado Deviled Eggs, I had never actually made them. Gasp, I know! Somehow over the years, when it came to family get-togethers and meals, I typically either volunteered or got volunteered for salad or dessert, and occasionally bread. Probably because {A.} I really love salad and tend to eat a lot of it, and {B.} love sweets and enjoy trying out new and different recipes…

Seven Saint Patrick’s Day Recipes

I simply cannot let March 17th come and go without sharing seven Saint Patrick’s Day recipes that feature an array of greens threaded throughout some of my favorite, albeit experimental recipes. So today, I decided to don my shamrock green in anticipation of the upcoming holiday while hoping the Luck of the Irish comes my way!…

Lemon Ginger Asparagus with Toasted Coconut

Before I get to this tasty Lemon Ginger Asparagus topped with Toasted Coconut, let me give you a brief update on what we’ve been up to!

Last week was full of lots of hard work {mostly on Josh’s part!} to make a few changes around the site and I am thrilled with the outcome! Josh has done a wonderful job redesigning the home page to incorporate a few new features, including the slider at the top and a “Popular Posts” column on the right…

Detox Green Smoothie + Fiber Loaded

The holidays are over, our trips are complete, and we are home safe and sound for good. Which means back to reality!

I love traveling and all it includes. Visiting family, capturing gorgeous views, experiencing other culture, eating an array of cuisine and making memories that I’ll always treasure…

Basil Pesto Chickpea Sandwiches

I love chickpeas. I love to add them to my daily lunch salad, I love to use them in cookies to replace the flour, and I definitely love them as the star of these Basil Pesto Chickpea Sandwiches.

If you read my last post on Healthy Mexican Stuffed Sweet Potatoes, then you know that we had planned a trip to the Smokies with our friends only to have our plans thrown out the window with a steady stream of rain throughout the weekend…

Sweet Potato Black Bean Veggie Burger

August 19, 2013. Probably not a significant day to most, but for me it marks my very first post.
I’ve poured over so many amazing food blogs, drooled over more incredible recipes than I can count and admired the writing and photography skills of these countless bloggers. So many of these women have inspiring stories, transformations, whole diet make-overs or expanded food and health knowledge to offer to the world. I don’t know that I have any of that. But I have a love for food, a passion for the way it affects our bodies, and a longing to be apart of this online community…
