Avocado Toast

Avocado Toast

I invented this version of avocado toast back when it was all the rage about when I created the Cleanse, and I come back to it over and over again for an easy breakfast. In the summertime, my husband and I always arrange to hang out with his best friend, and we...

Beef Stew

Beef Stew

Chilly fall and winter days call for a good soup, and some form of beef stew is usually in the mix at our house. I make it in different ways…sometimes with wine, sometimes with Worcestershire sauce, and this time, with mustard. Sounds weird, but I got inspired after...

Mustard Balsamic Pork Chops

Mustard Balsamic Pork Chops

My husband created a marinade this was inspired from, and it’s not stuff I would have initially put together, but it’s really good! I knew I had to share it with everyone. This could also work as a marinade on chicken, or on other cuts of pork.   Prep Time: 15...

Simple Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Simple Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Brussels sprouts may be a hard sell for some people, but I think it’s just because you either: 1) haven’t had fresh ones; or 2) you haven’t cooked them the right way. No one wants gross water logged mushy Brussels sprouts. This is a recipe you can start with to dip...

WFD?

WFD?

I’ve seen this shorthand phrase over and over in my Facebook group for other moms-to-be, and it stands for “what’s for dinner?” Well, not only do starving pregnant women want to know and be inspired, but many people find themselves asking that question every night....

Curling up with a nice bowl of soup (and a blanket and my cat)

Curling up with a nice bowl of soup (and a blanket and my cat)

The cooler weather is here to stay on the East Coast, and today has been particularly chilly and windy.  The sky is that gray that only happens in the fall, and the wind is shaking many of those last leaves off of the trees.  It’s this time of year that I crave...

Healthy, satisfying meal ideas for hungry girls and guys

Healthy, satisfying meal ideas for hungry girls and guys

I don’t believe that you should consistently starve yourself if you’re eating well.  Eat when you’re hungry (unless it’s really late at night, in which case unless you can’t sleep, it’s better to tough it out).  Still, when you switch to eating mainly whole foods...
