Peach cobbler smoothie

I love when peaches come back in season. I instantly want to make a peach cobbler and top it off with ice cream. Since peach season comes at the same time as swimsuit season, I decided it would be in my best interest to find another way to enjoy these

Skinny shrimp scampi

Shrimp scampi is oh so easy and delicious. Especially this skinny or healthified version. I wish I could make this Whole 30 approved, but I just can’t skip on the wine. The best part about cooking with wine? It’s already open, so you may

Mexican Chicken Soup

Tortilla soup was a weekly staple for me in high school. I worked at a restaurant that had the most delicious tortilla soup and I would take it home in huge containers because I loved it so much. While there are a lot of creamy white versions, I prefer

List it out

List it out honey, put it in the book. Okay, so maybe it was “let” and not “list” in Mean Girls. They may have also not been being positive either. Regardless, writing is an effective strategy I use for coping with those tougher

Potato Skins

Bacon is bacccck for another recipe. Back again. Bacons back as the star of these Whole 30 compliant potato skins. Yup, potato skins that are Whole 30 compliant, you read that right.

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

Zoodles and Meatballs

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

Acai ya later

Ah-sah-ee. Say it with me now. Acai is one of my true loves from my summer spent in Brazil. I’ve been scouring every place that claims they have Brazilian acai bowls since I’ve been home. They’re fine and all, but they just don’t

Mom’s Chicken Soup

My mom’s chicken soup is near and dear to my heart. It has warmed me up on cold days, cured my colds on sick days, and always leaves me with a sweet little feeling of nostalgia. Food is powerful like that, people. Especially home cooked food

Fall salad

I really don’t understand how brussel sprouts got such a bad rep. Whoever started the idea that brussels are gross has taste buds I don’t trust. Or maybe they were served by someone who didn’t know how to cook. These days, I can’t
