So bare with me while I get a little "sappy". I am not one to show or admit to weakness or talk about "scary" or hard times in life, but life can't always be perfect and it's good to know that you're not alone. I have reached the point in my life that I am [...]
So, it sounds crazy, but have you ever thought about how bad "typical" deodorant is? Did you even know it is bad for you? It's pretty scary once you start to look into it. To the point that I thought my only option was to smell funny or clog my armpit pores with chemicals (YUCK!) [...]
So, weeknight dinners are rough, let's be honest. I try my best to get home and make a home cooked meal each day, but struggle to find things my kids like and that are quick, easy, and are good for you. Tonight's dinner isn't my best work, I'll admit that, but only because of the [...]
So, I have obviously been a huge green smoothie fan for quite some time now, but lately, I have added a new ingredient that not only has incredible health benefits, but it adds amazing flavor to my smoothie recipes. LEMON RIND! I literally have a lemon or two in my freezer at all times that [...]
So, yet again, people think I'm crazy because I don't let my kids eat fruit snacks.... but seriously, have you ever looked at what is in them?! SCARY! In an attempt to replace store-bought fruit snacks and fruit roll-ups/ fruit-by-the-foot, I began looking up recipes and tried making my own. THEY ARE AMAZING! THEY [...]
This is one of my go-to recipes! I have made it over and over and am never disappointed. You can eat it alone or with crackers/bread if you prefer. I also want to try it on a slice of toasted sweet potato! 👌🏼 I use chicken from my weekly "batch" that I bake or cook [...]
Have you ever looked at what is in store-bought waffles?! Well, let's just say that making your own is much better for you, saves money, and tastes amazing! I make large batch and freeze whatever we don't eat. When it's time to eat them, I pop them in the toaster to thaw and brown a [...]
This was the first time I made this, but it will surely NOT be my last! It was delicious, filling, quick and easy, and inexpensive! 2 avocados cut into cubes 1 green or red bell pepper chopped 1 small cucumber, cut into small pieces (I peel mine first) 1/4 cup red onion chopped 1 can [...]
All ready for the morning! 👌 This is a great breakfast that can be made the night before. I pour it into a Pyrex bowl and put the toppings into a sandwich bag. QUICK. SIMPLE. EASY. and HEALTHY 😁 No excuses for not starting the day right! I have loved smoothies for a long time, [...]
So, you have probably heard of Probiotics by now, and may know how good they are for so many things.... but have you heard of Water Kefir?! If not, you're missing out on a great way to get your probiotics NATURALLY and basically for FREE (except for what you flavor the water with)! I [...]
