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 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….
My Favorite Noatmeal (aka Low Carb Oatmeal, which is actually oat-free porridge) is a hearty warm breakfast that can be made on the stovetop or in the microwave for a healthy, quick breakfast that only has 5g net carbs per serving.
Like many of us, I’m a creature of habit who craves routine. I get up, make coffee and a quick breakfast, and get to work early before breaking for my mid-morning workout. Routine keeps us centered, but the downside to this is that I’m prone to falling into eating ruts, particularly with breakfast….
This 5-Minute Classic Chocolate Avocado Mousse is rich and lusciously chocolatey, and full of heart-healthy fats.
My husband doesn’t understand my love affair with chocolate, and I don’t understand his apathy towards it. (He could literally take it or leave it.)
I think men and women’s differing points of view on chocolate is one of life’s biggest mysteries.
And truthfully, I think men are weird (sorry guys)….
This Mini Frozen Peach Coconut Cream Pie with Almond Crust is like lusciously rich and creamy ice cream cake…and it’s naturally-sweetened, grain-free, and gluten-free!
If you’ve been reading either of my blogs for any length of time, you may know that I fall in the chocolate camp when it comes to dessert.
Only very rarely do I forgo chocolate in favor of fruit (when it’s time for chocolate, it’s time for chocolate, right ladies?), and it has to be something that’s really worth it as far as I’m concerned.
This little pie was worth it….
I always like to have a healthy candy alternative on hand for Easter and Halloween so I don’t give in to the junk food/sugar high that’s all around….
I have a real thing for cold desserts in winter.
I’ll literally go months without so much as a spoonful of ice cream and then find myself craving it in the middle of January….
When it comes to eating healthy, homemade meals are the way to go.
But eating at home requires planning, as well as a method to get it all done. Not to mention lots of motivation to want to do it because the task of menu planning, shopping, meal prep, and cooking for three meals a day (plus snacks) for however many people you have to feed is almost another part-time job!…
Hello and welcome! I'm Faith and I believe you can have your cake and eat it too. For breakfast.
