    Candy Bar Milkshake – Baby Booster Style

    This blog has been compensated by Baby Booster. I also received these products in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. The days after Halloween can be a major health challenge if you have a love for candy like I do. A few years ago, when I was 60+ pounds overweight, I could scarf down five or six candy bars and not blink an eye. When I transitioned to a healthier lifestyle, I realized the only way I could make that happen was by throwing out everything that wasn’t good for me. I don’t have the willpower to NOT eat multiple candy bars in one sitting. This show…

    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…

    Orange Banana Smoothie

    For the past few months, I’ve been craving oranges like crazy! That, combined with eating out all week has me wanting healthy options now that we’re home.

I hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Ingredients: 3 peeled oranges 1 frozen banana 1 tablespoon of Salba…

    Berry Chocolate Smoothie Raw Jar

    I am pretty consistent with my breakfasts… eggs, avocado toast, fresh juice, oatmeal or smoothies. When I make my smoothies thinner or make fresh juice, I like to use my glass Raw Jars. My Raw Jars are also a favorite of mine for measuring my water intake because on the side there is a liquid measurer. I found this product on Instagram at the beginning of this year, and I’ve been using it every day since. I have two of them, a small jar and a large. I like to use the large jar for my juices and water and the small jar for my smoothies. I’ve shared a smoothie…

    strawberry + kale + banana breakfast

    Happy Hump Day, y’all! I have had some questions about my breakfast smoothie bowl concoctions, so I have decided to share a recipe for one that I am really enjoying right now! I usually make a smoothie bowl if not every morning then pretty close to it! The kids drink theirs (thinned with a little filtered water), and I freeze leftovers in our popsicle molds for later when we go sit on the porch. I have previously posted about why I love smoothie bowls HERE. They are so easy to make, and I love how I can make it a more filling meal when I add toppings of my liking.…
