I love September. It’s one of my favorite months because the weather is gorgeous, healthy habits are always renewed and my social calendar is packed with ladies nights and school picnics. This is a simple recipe that I love making for fall get togethers. It’s perfect for a tailgate or school cook out. This recipe […]

When it comes to making dinner, I need easy solutions that take minimal ingredients, prep time and preferably no real “recipe.” It’s hard to follow a recipe on your phone when you have a 3 year old running around and a 9 month old screeching unless I want to eat at 9 pm. Spoiler, I […]

When I used to diet for photoshoots in my 20’s, I would always reward myself with a treat at the end. Slowly, the weight that I lost would creep back on until the next shoot. I was so self conscious if I wasn’t in my top shape but it was hard to maintain because I […]

I love seafood. It’s definitely my protein of choice for taste and nutrition. Eating fish during pregnancy benefits children’s brain development as well as increases your chances of carrying your baby to term.

Nutrition is a science and our beliefs are constantly being challenged when new studies are published. Everyone is doing the best that they can with the information they are given. I don’t buy all organic food but I do try to buy organic when it comes to meat and dairy products. When it comes to […]

I’m not going to do a pregnancy update because things feel the same to be honest. I still can’t hear out of my left ear. I’m still doing similar workouts. My weight is the same and I just have nothing that I really have that is worth typing. However, last post I mentioned that I […]

Happy Galentine’s Day! Sharing a new video on YouTube featuring a healthy truffle recipes that’s also raw and vegan. If you’re like WTF is Galentine’s day, here’s a refresher from Leslie Knope, aka Amy Poehler’s character on Parks and Recreation: “Oh it’s only the best day of the year. Every February 13th, my lady friends […]

Even before I had a child, I was never that big into cooking. I like my meals to be ready in under 30 minutes. I don’t have the patience to cook a big meal, shop for a million ingredients, and wonder if I’ll ever use them again.  But I like to eat at home as […]
