    Healthier Chewy Granola Bars

    July 23, 2019 / No Comments

    I love bringing along healthy snacks when I go hiking or even on long road trips. Unfortunately, there’s not a lot of great options when it comes to healthy granola bars. Many are made with questionable ingredients, low-quality oats, processed sugar, and I don’t feel great when I eat them. I figured it wouldn’t be that difficult to make my own and I was right! You only need a few ingredients for these healthier chewy granola bars and I added a few extra ingredients to make them even better. I added some plant-based protein powder from Vega to add some protein, something most granola bars are lacking in. I also…

    Healthy Double Chocolate “Costco” Muffins

    May 3, 2019 / 2 Comments

    Muffins are just so good. They are like delicious, bald cupcakes and I love them! The giant Costco muffins (especially the double chocolate ones) have always been some of my favorites. However, those giant muffins are loaded with processed sugar and ingredients. I’m all for balance and enjoying treats like that now and then, but I would never call those muffins a healthy option. To be completely honest, I wasn’t trying to make a copycat Costco muffin, but I’m SO happy they turned out so good and so close to that delicious original. Made with minimally processed ingredients, protein powder, omega-3s and even some collagen for good measure, I think…

    Is Juicing Healthy? A Nutritionists Opinion

    March 3, 2019 / No Comments

    I’ve been seeing the whole celery juicing craze EVERYWHERE lately. On Instagram, Facebook groups, YouTube, you name it. I’m sure you have too. People claim it helps clear up their acne, helps them lose weight, makes them regular,  finds them true love (not really but you get the picture.) So the real question is, does it live up to the hype? Is juicing healthy? Is there any scientific reasoning to back it up? Or is it just that, hype? Let’s get into the science of juicing, celery or any other fruit or veggie, and if it’s really worth your time, effort, and money. Is Juicing Healthy? Potential Benefits of Juicing…

    The 5 Basic Rules of Healthy Eating

    February 26, 2019 / No Comments

    Healthy eating is and should be a pretty simple concept, yet it’s very difficult for so many people.  via GIPHY Heck, it’s hard for me and healthy eating is part of my job description. Nearly all of us know the basics of proper eating. Eat your veggies, get enough protein, try not to eat your weight in dark chocolate every night. (A struggle.) We all know what we should do, it’s actually doing it that’s hard. Maybe this is because everywhere you turn, there is a new opinion on what and how you should eat… Count this, don’t count that, only eat this, never eat that blah blah blah. Maybe…

    Red Velvet Protein Bites

    February 12, 2019 / No Comments

    Have you ever heard of beet powder? Ya know, beets that have been dried and ground into a powder? I hadn’t until recently and I wish I had discovered it sooner. If it sounds weird, hear me out! Beet powder is loaded with vitamins and minerals including vitamins A, B6 and C, magnesium, iron, folate, potassium, iron, and calcium. It’s a great way to add natural color to smoothies and it’s common for companies to use beet powder to naturally color their products. Beet powder adds a unique aspect to these bites. It gives them that “red velvet” taste and color. These little guys are super tasty and full of…

    My Favorite Healthy Costco Finds

    January 31, 2019 / No Comments

    Who doesn’t love Costco? It’s like the Disneyland of grocery stores, I weirdly get excited every time we have to go pick up some things. Costco has great deals, from travel (how we went to Mexico on a budget) to furniture (got our couch there for a steal), electronics (got our TV there for a killer deal), clothes (they have the best comfy travel pants), and of course food! In my opinion, Costco has really stepped up their game in recent years, providing all sorts of awesome healthy foods and products for a great deal. Here is my list of things I buy and use most often. If I’m missing…

    Healthy Brownie Bites With Nut Butter

    January 14, 2019 / No Comments

    You can’t go wrong with brownie bites and you can’t go wrong with peanut butter (or any nut butter for that matter).  That’s why I decided to combine the two! These healthy peanut butter brownie bites are made with mostly clean ingredients and minimal processed sugar. You can enjoy them in 45 minutes or less and are the perfect treat to come home to after a long day at work.  I used plant-based protein for this recipe and recommend using the same. Using whey protein may alter the texture and not in a good way. I also added some collagen for an extra boost of protein and added nutrition, but you…

    12 Healthy Pumpkin Recipes You’ll Love

    October 2, 2018 / 7 Comments

    Pumpkin season is FINALLY here! I love pumpkin as much as the next girl, but not just because it tastes great. Pumpkin is actually full of some surprising health benefits. Whether you like it or not, pumpkin is a veggie, a member of the squash family. Pumpkin get’s its lovely orange color from a pigment and antioxidant called beta-carotene, the same that’s in carrots, and is good for you eyes. Here are some other interesting benefits: Pumpkins are about 90% water and high in fiber. This means that they are low calorie and will keep you full and hydrated making pumpkin a great weight loss food. Pumpkins are high in…
