This recipe has been on repeat about 5 times a week. It tastes just like a peppermint patty or thin mint cookie, but is low in sugar. There are lots of options on how you can sweeten this smoothie up- my choice is Lakanto Maple Sweetener. I have a normal/high A1c and have been working diligently over the last 18...

Hello, there! I made a decision over the last week to migrate some of the most asked for and delicious recipes that I share on Instagram over to the blog for easy access. Finding a recipe within a feed on Instagram is not always the easiest process, so in an effort to simplify, they are going to be finding their...

Good morning and happy Monday! I figured that there was no better way to start a Monday morning than by sharing a recipe that is currently making my coffee do a happy dance. We love nutella, do you? That hazelnut and chocolate spread is a family favorite. When I was thinking about what creamer to make this week for my...

Good morning and happy Monday! I truly can’t believe that we are about to embark on our third week on the Whole30. The past 14 days have gone by so quickly and our menus have created an ease and flow that we have not experienced on the W30 before. Our big rocks of success: making extra food each night to...

Good morning and happy Sunday! Hope that you are all having a great start to your week. Before the week gets away from me, I wanted to share our menu for week 2 on the Whole30.

Good morning and happy Friday! I hope that you all are doing wonderful and have had the best week so far. I am so thankful that the weekend is here and that I am finally feeling a bit more like myself. One thing that has definitely helped me feel more normal after surgery was getting back in the kitchen. Cooking...

This smoothie is truly one of my favorite’s of 2018. It blends so many delicious flavors and if you feel like adding superfoods it is a fabulous base. I even made this smoothie to travel with and if kept in a cooler or refrigerator, it tasted just as good two days later! That is amazing for a smoothie. Enjoy the...

Happy Tuesday! I hope that you are all having a wonderful week so far! I have such a delicious line up of meals for next week and truly can’t wait to dive into each of them. I planned this menu early in the week when I had a few extra minutes and it felt so nice to have that taken...

Hey there and happy Friday! I am so excited to be sharing a menu plan for this week. I am really, really going to work at posting these each week. I think without the pressure of having to add a bunch of pictures, I can make this routine stick. Also, if you want to see pictures, you know where to...

Good morning and happy Easter weekend! It has been well over a month since I last shared our family menu plan for the week. We went through a period of time where we were using ingredients that we had on hand to plan our meals and it was so nice to clean out the pantry and the freezer. We would...
