    Green Smoothie LighterRestoring my body back to factory settings in 3…2…yum! It might be getting colder outside, but smoothies are never out of season in my household. Especially after 4 days of Thanksgiving on repeat. Even pie has its limits. And what I love about these 3 smoothies is that they aren’t your usual berry medley loaded with sugar. Each has a source of healthy fat, plant-based protein (from whole foods) and a serving of veggies! If you’re ready to restore, rejuvenate while your taste buds rejoice, read on.

    Zuppa Toscana for the Soul: how faux-talians solve all their problems. I may not be Italian, but I was a waitress at Olive Garden back in the day. And if there’s one thing I took away from that college gig, it was a dream – a dream to one day recreate the magic of Zuppa Toscana. Rejoice. Because that day arrived. And my version, is 100% dairy-free and delicious. Plus, the base is equally delicious as a seafood chowder. I like to call that a bonus round. If you’re equally giddy about the iconic Zuppa Toscana, read on to recreate this meal of endless soup, salad and breadsticks, any night of the week.

  • Hold the Carbs, Just the {Almond Flour} Bagels

    Cinnamon Raisin Almond Flour Bagels

    Too many people look at the holes in their life and miss the glorious bagel right in front of them. I, on the other hand, am a glass half full kinda gal, an opportunistic who doesn’t skip a beat when there’s a bagel to be eaten. Especially when it’s a gluten-free, whole food based option that is lower in carbs and tastes just as good as the OG! Now I’m no New Yorker, so I know that’s high praise, but I’m willing to stick my neck out for this recipe – or at least stick out a hand if you’re going to pass on these almond flour bagels. You didn’t come here to pass on bagels though, did you? Let’s get to baking your favorite version be it plain, cinnamon raisin or everyone’s favorite – the everything bagel.
