Coming Back to my Yoga Practice #TryAgainTuesdays

If you know me in any shape or form in real life you know that I am pretty clumsy, a bit uncoordinated and have fallen, on more than one occasion, flat on my face while walking down the street (without wearing high heels #truestory). So as you can imagine, my first time doing yoga was pretty comedic…

If you’ve read this blog for a while you know that I love comfort food.  After struggling with my health and weight almost my entire life, falling into almost every yo-yo diet possible (in case you’re wondering the cabbage soup and grapefruit diet don’t really work – trust me) and finally having the courage to…

Quick One Pot Broccoli Pasta

We all need that one meal, that meal we turn to on those busy weeknights and want dinner on the table in 20 minutes or less. That meal we turn to when we don’t want to spend the evening doing dishes. That meal we turn to because we always have everything on hand for it. That meal…

Tropical Green Smoothie, Travelling and Fresh Starts

  I have been a bit off the blogging radar for the past couple weeks because I have been literally travelling nonstop.

Naked Baked Kale Chips – no dehydrator required!

Healthy Peanut Butter Oat Muffins

    I’ve been dreaming of this recipe for a while now. A muffin that is infused with peanut butter and full of hearty oats. The kind of muffin that is slightly sweet and goes down perfectly with a big cuppa coffee in the morning.     One of the biggest obstacles in baking with oats is that many oat-based recipes…
