This beetroot hummus proves you can train for a bikini fitness competition without following the “standard” diet. Before I committed to doing a bodybuilding competition, I really did my research. As in, I wanted to make sure I could eat something besides oatmeal, egg whites, chicken breast, and broccoli! Haha. Because all over the internet …
This blueberry protein smoothie bowl has had to wait 5 days and as many writing attempts before finally coming to you… but life is sometimes messy like that… very much like this smoothie bowl! But that doesn’t mean it isn’t still good… the smoothie bowl, I mean… and life too! These past 2 weeks have …
These spicy tofu wraps with citrus tahini dressing just might be the solution to all your lunchtime woes… Lunch is sometimes a problem, do you get me?

It started out to be a seminar with the basic idea of “how to maintain your health while running your small business at the same time,” and …
Just because it’s November doesn’t mean you can’t eat salad… but when I look back at my recipe posts and see that I haven’t given you a salad recipe since June… JUNE!!!… I berate myself. This might lead you to believe I only eat salad in American summer. ‘Tis not true, friends! I eat some sort of …
