My “Go To” Lunch Right Now
THIS POST IS IN PARTNER WITH DAILY HARVEST. ALL THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ARE MY OWN. PLEASE VISIT MY DISCLAIMER PAGE FOR MORE INFORMATION. Hey y’all! As you know, we have expanded our family by one more – sweet Vivi is here! We are loving on her 24/7 and that’s pretty much been my life since she joined us. Her and I have spent our days and nights lounging in bed so my body can heal after giving birth. Since I am recovering and breast feeding, it’s super important that I fuel my body with healthy and nutritious foods. I have preached the importance of eating this way since my blog…

GAMEDAY Dip with Vital Proteins
This post is in partner with Vital Proteins. All thoughts and my opinions are my own. Please visit my disclaimer page for more information. It’s officially the funnest Sunday Funday of the year! THE BIG GAME is always really fun – not because I necessarily even know what teams are playing, haha. I enjoy it for the halftime show (Hey J.T.) and the food! Dips and apps are some of my favorite things to indulge in and today is the day my wildest food dreams come true. It makes it even better that I am pregnant and finally able to enjoy food again. We are choosing not going to a…

My Chicken and “Rice” Recipe and Non Toxic Cookware Guide
One thing I’ve learned after starting my family is that finding good recipes that don’t take several hours to make is really important. It’s so easy to say, “well, nothing is cooked, so let’s just head out to eat.” How often have you heard those words come out of your mouth? Fast food or eating out is such a waste of money and will pack on the pounds at the same time. Don’t get me wrong, getting “vacation meals” every now and then isn’t bad but don’t make it a habit. I am with the kids 24/7 and even though Derrek is more than hands on when he is home,…

The Best “Mashed Potatoes” aka Cauliflower with help from Blendtec
I’m gonna go ahead and call today, Soulfood Sunday. It’s the day after we grocery shop so I feel like the world is my oyster when it comes to deciding what we eat. Nothing makes me happier than a full fridge. I guess it’s because I reflect back on my college days when the contents of my fridge consisted of beer and takeout. Yikes! What a long way I’ve come! I have shared the recipe to my “mashed potatoes” aka mashed cauliflower on my insta stories numerous times. Each time I do, I get begged to put it on my blog so here it is. Finally in a space that…

Chicken Noodle Immune Soup
“Chicken noodle soup, chicken noodle soup, chicken noodle soup with a soda on da side….” am I the only one who hears this song when I make chicken noodle soup? The weather here is freezing cold and we had the promise of snow on Saturday. Sadly, it rained right before the flurries started falling so it didn’t stick. Our kids were devastated that they couldn’t use their new ski bibs (you MUST check out the huge sale that’s happening over on the Target website, I got the kids theirs for $9 each!) We passed the time by making different crafts, playing with legos and cooking some of our favorite comfort…
