Coconut Milk Quinoa Breakfast
This week has been bananas, but thankfully the weekend is here, and now that my Earth Day event at Kindbelly has passed, I can relax with my family. By relaxing, I’m not talking a vacay on a tropical island, I totally mean enjoying our home and doing yard work. We’ve neglected our yard for tooooooo long and now that the weather is warming up, we cannot wait to go out there every day. We started our garden inside with seedlings and now that Derrek put chicken manure in my raised beds, we can plant away! Nolan is super excited about watering the garden and watching its daily process… I really…

Baby Booster Kona Mocha Smoothie Bowl
Sometimes for breakfast, I love to make a smoothie bowl! This happens when I get a sweet tooth but want a healthy way to deal with it. With the help of the Baby Booster Kona Mocha chocolate protein powder, I fulfilled my craving along with extra prenatals! (This post was compensated by the Baby Booster. All opinions are my own.) This chocolate protein powder is amazing for expecting mamas because it’s packed with a wide spectrum of essential prenatal nutrients and 20g of protein. Saturday mornings are the perfect time for smoothie bowls because Derrek is here and I can take the extra time to create something different with my smoothie. The Kona…

I wanted to find a sweet treat that we can enjoy when we get a craving or if we are out and about and need something that’s not so messy. This is where the Granilla Bar comes in, they make all-natural, preservative free Paleo bars in delicious flavors. “The orginal Granilla bars are a mix of shredded coconut, a blend of seeds, almonds & pecans with some dark chocolate chunks or a combination of dried fruits depending on what you’re…

Fresh Juice
I’ll be the first one to say that I love juicing, eating lots of fresh seasonal foods and taking care of my body, but that doesn’t mean I’m going on a juice-only diet. From where I stand, I would rather incorporate juicing into a seasonal-based, clean diet because this is what makes me feel my best. So, let’s talk juicing. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS? Drinking fresh vegetable juice allows you to consume more fresh vegetables, which we all know are full of good things like vitamins, minerals, and beneficial enzymes. Fresh vegetable juice is very alkalizing, meaning that it helps to strengthen the body and keep it healthy. I’ve also…
