Soups are hands down my favorite thing to make. They are easy, can be packed with nourishing ingredients, and can develop a really deep, complex flavor. Oftentimes soup is better the second or third day once the flavors have had a chance to meld together. That is...if it lasts until the second or third day (insert gritted teeth emoji + upside down smile emoji).
Read MoreYou guys. Rhys turned 4 months old on January 6th! He is 1/3 of a year old. HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?! I know they are supposed to grow and get bigger but oh my goodness, time is flying. He doesn't feel like a new, fragile baby anymore! I'm equal parts sad because part of me misses the squishy newborn stage, and equal parts excited because it's so much fun to see him grow and develop.
Read MoreHappy New Year! I know I know, I'm a few days late, but better late than never right? I am excited to share this recipe with you! I've gotten a few requests on Instagram to share more healthy snack ideas so I thought I would share this delicious muffin recipe I have been making lately.
Read MoreWell hi there! It's been a while. A little over a year to be exact! Unless you follow me on Instagram it probably seemed like I dropped off the face of the planet. No explanation, no blog updates, how rude of me!
So what have I been up to?
Read MoreI'm still wrapping my head around the fact that Thanksgiving is next week! This year is FLYING. Thanksgiving is probably my favorite holiday. Scott and I usually get up early and either run in a Turkey Trot road race or do our own workout. We didn't sign up for an official race this year, so we will most likely be hitting up our local gym to get a little turkey day workout in by ourselves. After our workout, I'll be heading into the kitchen to whip up a few dishes to bring to my family's Thanksgiving dinner.
Read MoreThis dish tastes incredibly comforting while still feeling light and fresh. If you have never made a cashew cream sauce before, DO IT. Seriously, it's life changing. Who needs dairy when you have cashews?! Plus it has kale in it, so you definitely know it's healthy ;)
Read MoreJust look at those clusters! Now that's what I'm talking about. This is my favorite type of granola...nutty with extra large clusters. I forgot about granola for a long time. I know, I know, what kind of plant-based eater am I if I "forgot" about granola?! Sorry granola, I'll never forget about you again. Especially this granola.
Read MoreBoy oh boy do I have something tasty (and super easy) for you today. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Soup is my jam. It's one of my absolute favorite foods. And this time of year there is nothing better than a piping hot bowl of creamy, comforting soup. Add pumpkin to the mix and WHOA...can it even get any better?
Read MoreJust look at that glorious loaf! It is everything you want in a homemade bread. It has a soft, moist center and a wonderful outer crumb. And it's filled with so many good ingredients. In my banana bread recipe I used brown sugar and coconut sugar, but for this recipe I wanted to use something different. I wanted to sweeten it a bit more naturally.
