These were so easy and delicious! I'm a snacker. If I don't have healthy snacks lurking in every corner of my home, I'm in trouble. I will reach for the worst possible thing if healthy options are not "good to go". If you're ever missing a...
I have always been a huge fan of macaroons- enjoying their chocolatey, chewy goodness! I was highly motivated to take this yummy treat and infuse it with an extra dose of superfood nutrition. This recipe includes coconut oil, which truly one of the only foods that nutrition experts from all...
Who doesn't like pink lemonade? No need to settle for yucky chemical-heavy commercial products, when you can get a quick and nutrient-dense version yourself. Beet powder is a fantastic staple to have on hand. It can greatly boost the nutrient quality while at the same time...
Raw, nut-free Golden Goji Bites I know how challenging it can be to send healthy snacks off to school that are nut-free. Given the alarming rate of serious nut allergies, this is not something to be taken lightly. Happy with the overall result of the Golden Goji...
I love experimenting in the kitchen, coming up with easy (MUST be easy) and nutritious recipes that hopefully taste good (my team of critics can be harsh)! I'm often searching for healthy snacks to add to lunches for myself and family. Most "prepared" snacks are just...
My boys in particular are (mostly) generous when I recruit them for taste testing. Several members of Dan's basketball team got roped into tasting this one. I'm not sure if they were overly polite as they were counting on a drive back to the gym, really hungry or...
Inspired by the remarkable Kris Carr, I tried out her recipe for granola. I made a few adjustments to the recipe, and am really happy with the results. Tasty, crispy, nutritious and super quick to make! It has quickly become a family favourite! Super Easy Granola 2...

Hemp Seed Butter Continuing with our hemp-based theme, I couldn't resist sharing this recipe with you. I wish I could take credit for this recipe, but full honours go to the talented Judita Wignall. If you're looking to add more plant-based recipes to your routine, and...
It gives me great comfort to have meals planned in advance so that I'm not frantically trying to get a meal together and mostly, so that I'm not relying on processed (ugh) foods. Even better, when preparation for one meal makes for easy preparation of a second...
If you're looking for a fun, tasty protein boost to your salads, soups or snacks, you may wish to give this recipe a try. This will also lend some nice texture and "crunch" to your food - giving it some nice variety. While easy to...
The original recipe comes from Clean Eating magazine. I couldn't help myself though; it didn't have onions and that just isn't right in our house! How can you have a vegetable soup without onions? Of course, my meddling didn't stop there; I had to switch up a...
