This thick and rich Healthy Paleo-Friendly Snickers Smoothie with chocolate, caramel sauce, and salted peanuts will have you convinced you’re eating ice cream when it’s actually healthy enough for breakfast.
What if I told you it’s easy to transform a banana and just a few other ingredients (which are mostly just fridge and/or pantry staples) into something that tastes like both a milkshake and a candy bar? Welcome to the world of smoothies….
30-Minute Strawberry Balsamic Vanilla Chia Seed Jam is a healthier take on a classic favorite jam. It’s basically strawberry chia pudding, so not only is it perfect for topping toast with, but feel free to dig right in with a spoon!
Every year when strawberry season rolls around I go a little hog wild, especially if I’m picking my own. There’s some kind of primal instinct that kicks in when I go into a strawberry field with nothing but an empty container. Every single time I end up coming out with way more than intended or needed. But I could do a lot worse than too many strawberries, lol….
Cherry Vanilla Energy Bites are a delicious and energizing mid-morning or early-afternoon snack.
We all have a favorite snack that we reach for over and over again when hunger strikes between meals. I like to pair protein and healthy fat for longer-lasting satisfaction, and sometimes I just need a sweet treat….
These Paleo and Vegan Chocolate Chia Pudding, Pomegranate Banana Nice Cream, and Mango Soft Serve Parfaits for Two feel special enough for breakfast for a special day.
I always see those gorgeous chia pudding/smoothie bowl/banana soft serve parfait-type things on Instagram looking equal parts healthy and gorgeous, dripping with exotic fruit and nuts, and stylishly sporting things like chia or hemp seeds, cacao nibs, and matcha swirls, the way fancy ladies drip gemstones and sport stilettos.
Dang, those parfaits are drop-dead stunning, aren’t they?…
These deeply chocolaty, fudgy-textured Vegan No-Bake Chocolate Brownie Bite Truffles are a great healthy treat to have on hand to keep you focused on clean eating without feeling deprived.
This time of year, magazines inundate us with ideas on how to eat clean and make healthier choices throughout the holiday season. Ideas like eating dinner and then heading out to an evening party where there’ll be a dinner buffet, or eating a main course off of a smaller appetizer-sized plate. Or carrying a glass of water in one hand throughout the duration of a party so it’s harder to eat food….
These Soft and Chewy Cacao Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies are everything chocolate chip cookies should be; crispy outside, chewy inside with deep caramel flavor notes and rich bursts of chocolate.
Chocolate chip cookies need no introduction, really. They’re just about everyone’s sweetheart cookie, and for good reason; I can’t think of anything better than a really great chocolate chip cookie….
If you’re a chocolate-lover, this Super Thick Decadent Double Chocolate Milkshake will have you weak in the knees!
Growing up I remember two different periods when we had a blender at home. When it was present, it seemed to be a permanent non-functional fixture in our kitchen, sort-of the same way that a painting is on a wall. It really didn’t get much use!
And then suddenly, both times, it just wasn’t there anymore….
If you’re eating clean, but love cherry pie, this Cherry Pie Filling will be a summer staple in your kitchen!
I love eating seasonally, especially when it comes to fruit. Even though things like tomatoes and strawberries are generally available year-round where I live, there is nothing like fresh, local juicy summer tomatoes or a bowl of sweet strawberries. Or ripe peaches that are so sweet and juicy they have to be eaten over the kitchen sink! And for me, sweet cherries are tops….
These nutrient-dense, caffeinated Pick-Me-Up Chewy Apricot-Almond Bars are perfect for snacking on when you need a natural burst of energy.
I’m not usually a big snacker, but some days I just need a little something after a long workout or to carry me through from lunch to dinner. These are the perfect thing to keep on hand for healthy snacking….
Blueberry Almond Streusel Bars whip up in 45 minutes for a beautiful paleo brunch or dessert.
I’m not normally one to celebrate things like National Chocolate Cake Day, National Pickle Day, or National Hug Your Cat Day (well, really, I *try* to hug my cat every day, and I say try because normally she lets me know in no uncertain terms that she just isn’t the touchy/feely type…but anyway)….
Hello and welcome! I'm Faith and I believe you can have your cake and eat it too. For breakfast.
