Green Juice…Served with a Healthy Dose of Reality

Let me paint you a picture. I was scrolling through my Instagram feed and I see picture after picture of gorgeously captured food items. Inspired by these beautifully crafted images, I decided to stage my own photoshoot. I had just gotten a delicious green juice, the sun was shining, and the flowers in the backyard were perfectly in bloom. Glass…

Yogurt & Berries

This snack can give you the illusion that you are having dessert (especially if you are adding the honey or maple syrup!) Unfortunately, most flavored yogurts have enough sugar in them that they should actually be considered a dessert but are often marketed as health foods.

Raspberry Energy Smoothie

I often think of only making smoothies for the morning but forget that they are also a fantastic snack option, especially during the second part of the day, when my eyelids tend to get a little heavy and I start craving something sweet or salty, or both. I also love making smoothies with my kids as it’s a great way…

Grilled Steak & Veggies Dinner

Grilled Steak & Veggies

Dinners are pretty basic in our house, especially during the week. By the time we get home from school/work, we have an hour to get food on the table, homework done, kids bathed (occasionally) and off to bed. So we try to keep things simple and this meal is a big go to for us, especially in the warmer months.…

Creamy Rainbow Chickpea Salad LunchSnacks

Creamy Rainbow Chickpea Salad

I’m not a huge traditional salad person. Lettuce is OK, but I could take it or leave it and while I like other vegetables and leafy greens, I sometimes just feel like I’m crunching on nothing. I do love a salad though, if it’s a big bowl of stuff, with lots of colors and textures and flavors and this one…
