BLT Salad

One thing I love about the Whole 30 is that it reminds me that you don’t have to have certain foods at certain meals. Salads are totally acceptable for breakfast and you can have

Food + Drink

Few edibles make me as happy as pasta. Especially the childhood classic, spaghetti and meatballs. Spaghetti and meatballs were my jam growing up. My grandfather nicknamed me ‘Pig Pen’ when I was a toddler because I would eat my spaghetti

Sweet potato nachos

Something about football just makes me crave great finger/appetizer foods. With the National Championship upon us, and me about 10 days into my January Whole 30, I can’t indulge in the cheesy kind you might envision upon reading the word ‘nacho.’

Sweet potato toast

Bread is one of the things I’ve learned I shouldn’t eat as regularly as I’d like (as in, every meal, and for snacks in between). I used to eat bread at almost every meal. Carbs are our friends. You know, like those friends that you

Tomato Basil Soup

Tomato and basil are truly a perfect pairing. Turn it into soup and add grilled cheese and it only gets better. Something about this combination is so comforting to me. One bite and I am brought back to being a little kid at the dinner table with family

Carrot Cake Smoothie Bowl

A bowl and some toppings can quickly turn a snack sized smoothie into a satisfying meal. I recently had a craving for some carrot cake and wondered if I could make a smoothie to curb the craving. Lucky for me (and now lucky for you), I succeeded. It

Chili Recipe

It’s time to get heated. As the temperatures drop, I think a great way to warm up is with a big bowl of chili. Sharing my recipe is sort of giving you the gold. I’m sure you’ve heard the saying “Who wants to buy the cow if the

The Whole 30

You may have heard of the Whole 30 before. Maybe you have a friend who was your DD for 30 days because they weren’t drinking. Maybe you noticed someone asking a lot of questions about what ingredients restaurants use when cooking their food.
