Oh man, I love a good green smoothie. It gives me a sense of accomplishment having gotten a good dose of veggeis in to start the day. It’s almost as if nothing else you do that day matters because it started out good, am I right?!?! Wine? Chocolate? It’s cool, I had greens for breakfast. This … [Read more…]
Granola is one thing I’ve been making at home for a few years now because it’s SO easy and so much better for you. When I taste store-bought granola these days it’s actually shockingly sweet. I like making it at home because I can control the ingredients and the sweetness, aka, sugar content. It’s also quite … [Read more…]

What if, this Christmas, instead of giving friends and family a bunch of sugary, butter-filled cookies, you gave them a leg up on their New Year’s resolutions and gave them these chewy chocolate granola bars instead? They’re naturally sweetened, dense, chewy, and chocolatey; dare I say…they’re actually quite brownie-like! Plus that pop of dried cranberries … [Read more…]
Hey You! Do you like chocolate milkshakes?! OMG, ME TOO! Do you ever eat them for breakfast!? Of course you don’t. But you can now! OK fine, it’s not a milkshake, technically, but it is definitely breakfast material. Why? Because, this one packs a serious Omega-3 punch. We need to eat our Omega-3s because our … [Read more…]
