Wouldn’t it be so nice to start each day with a cold-pressed green juice?! Unfortunately buying one every day is not in my $ budget right now and getting my own juicer and cleaning it out every day is just not in my time budget right now. Ah.. maybe one day I’ll have peaceful mornings … [Read more…]
Here’s your new go-to toddler treat for summer! And it’s completely naturally sweetened with the goodness of cherries. Feel free to switch up the fruit too. Ripe juicy peaches or mango would also be great here! When it comes to “special treats” as we call them, I am totally OK with the occasional summer time … [Read more…]
This might be my new favourite granola recipe! It’s super crunchy and clustery-exactly how I like my granola! I stuck to the basic deliciousness of pure maple syrup and cinnamon-a combo that really can’t go wrong-for a lightly sweetened, nicely spiced way to start the day. I love this grain free version because it’s a … [Read more…]

Yummy! This creamy broccoli soup originally started as a baby food creation for James. But it was so good that the rest of us ate it all up real quick. I soon made another batch and tested out a few options. For baby food purposes, I’d suggest using bone broth as it’s great for new … [Read more…]
Friends and family with kids have been asking me a lot lately… “What do you feed Liam?!” The truth is, we usually feed him whatever we are eating… and over time meals have become pretty peaceful, even enjoyable sometimes! It wasn’t always this way and we’ve had our share of frustrating dinners, but being patient … [Read more…]
Hey there! It’s been a few…months….since I’ve posted on the blog. But, I’ve been working on becoming a Holistic Nutritionist, so ya know, it’s a good excuse! I’m SO excited to be done soon so I can blog more…and nap more?! A major (and somewhat obvious) focus for Holistic Nutrition is to eat whole, natural, … [Read more…]
I’ve had a great time testing and perfecting this no-bake brownie recipe. I mean, I pretty much need a chocolate fix on the daily and this is it! Totally feels like a decadent treat but really it’s just an awesome source of some pretty important nutrients. Cacao is an amazing source of antioxidants, iron, magnesium, … [Read more…]
This here was (is?) my go-to postpartum lunch. I seriously ate this every day for about 3 months, maybe 6, and I’m currently eating it while writing this as my 1 year-old naps. Which is why I figured I should share it with any mama friends out there, and for those of you who just … [Read more…]
This soup. I’ve had this so many times lately and I’m just not getting sick of it. I’m thinking it’s about time I share it, no?! This butternut squash soup is my take on my Nonna’s “Milk Soup.” I know, it sounds odd, but we begged for this stuff as kids. And I never really … [Read more…]
