Im{pasta}bly easy meal prep
Pasta lovers, imma ’bout to flip your world UPSIDE DOWN with this completely whole food, plant-based and low carb spaghetti squash carbonara. Im(pasta)ble you say? Oh yes way.

I’ve been dreaming this dish up for months after visiting The Butcher’s Daughter in LA and finally recreated the magic. Plus, no oven meal prep is what Texas dreams are made of in the summer. Get the dEATs for this Whole30 and keto-friendly recipe below, along with my pro meal prepping tips!

So Matcha Love
Spotted: pot of gold. Leprechaun: not included.
Making my own luck this morning with this COCONUT MATCHA CHIA PUDDING topped with coconut cream and a sprinkle of nature’s gold – aka bee pollen. I’m escaping the Irish invasion in Chicago today for St. Patrick’s Day, but couldn’t help but cheers the day with something green. Also celebrating a lot of luck (ie hard work) that’s recently paid off with some exciting news on the job and life front to come soon! In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this Keto, Paleo and Whole30-friendly treat!

Whole30 Reflections
Okay, okay so I said my last post was the “Final Frontier” for Whole30, but I couldn’t help but bask in the glow for one last post on Day 28. Because on Day 28 I’m feeling…pretty great. Sure, it was one helluva rollercoaster (even the second time around), but I’m feeling high as a kite with the end in sight. Also….I’ve apparently turned into Dr. Seuss. I’ll spare you any more rhymes, but I do have a few more recipes up my sleeve, including green (deviled) eggs! Read on for a flurry of new recipes and some final reflections on Whole30.
