Healthy food that tastes good with a sprinkle of indulgent recipes because #balance

This about sums it up 🤪 (also because I love Me

This about sums it up 🤪 (also because I love Mean Girls tbh)

Just a friendly reminder that I definitely have an obsession with all things food and creating delicious recipes for you (that are usually great for meal prepping as an added bonus!).

Meal prepping is SUCH a time (and 💰) saver in the long run; plus, it prevents us from eating less nutrient-dense foods we might gravitate towards a litttttle too often when we’re busy! 🥦🍎

Anyone else spend most of their day talking about food?! 🤣

You haaave to try these granola bars because they’re currently my favorite recipe 🤩

PRO TIP: smack (yes, smack - you can see in the video) the mixture into the pan before chilling. This condenses them to give them that classic granola bar texture!

PRO TIP #2: you can use any cereal you like! I like original @chexcereal because it adds a nice crunchy texture (I crushed them up to make them hold better but you can leave them whole!)

I’m already dreaming of different flavor combos I can do with this recipe.. any suggestions?! 😏

Homemade granola bars are a must-add to your recipe list! The dried cranberries and almond butter combo 🫶🏼 (almond butter and honey make the “glue” that holds these together - no butter or coconut oil!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Plus they’re a good source of carbohydrates while being low in fat and protein, making them the perfect preworkout snack 🤓

Homemade hummus is the way to go. It’s only 5 ingredients and takes about 5 minutes to make!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love using it as a dip, spread on sandwiches/wraps, or as part of a salad dressing 🤓 Plus you can add whatever flavors you want: garlic, roasted peppers, extra lemon, pesto, the options are endless! Hummus is full of complex carbs (thank you, fiber) and healthy fats (from the tahini and EVOO)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pro tip: use a high-quality extra virgin olive oil for the best flavor (look for a deep green color in the oil) 🤩

Banana bread never gets old and this easy banana b

Banana bread never gets old and this easy banana bread recipe is just that - simple to make and so so delicious! Plus it’s lower in fat and added sugar than traditional banana bread 🤓

This is a recipe I love to meal prep. Since bananas turn brown so fast, I’ll whip some up whenever we have bananas that need to be used. Then I’ll slice the loaf and freeze as individual slices! That way I can easily thaw a slice or two to have as part of my breakfast for the week. I love pairing this banana bread with a smear of almond or peanut butter and some low-fat Greek yogurt 😋

Search “banana bread” at the link in bio for the recipe or save this post for inspo later!

Wanted to share a recap of our trip to Canada last

Wanted to share a recap of our trip to Canada last month (at least recap what we ate 😝), mainly to showcase this breakfast from @stjameseatery 🤩 (thank you @nevernoteatingca for the rec!!)

Pro tip: if you want to try multiple things on the menu (like a breakfast sandwich AND this raspberry pistachio danish), see if anyone will split dishes with you! This way you get to try a few things and satisfy your cravings 😎

Full restaurant recap from the trip on the blog!

One of my most popular recipes right now: spicy peanut noodles 😍

I highly highly highly recommend making extra sauce because I could literally eat it with a spoon (no judgment if you do) 🙃

The answer is yes, this is my new favorite thing I’ve ever made. Stay tuned for more recipes to come with this honey lavender syrup! 🤩

Simple syrup is so easy to make and I love that the options are endless when it comes to flavors: lavender, jalapeño, mint, pineapple, cinnamon, and more! Plus this recipe uses a mixture of honey and stevia so less sugar than traditional simple syrup 🤓

🚨New recipe alert! Honey lavender syrup is finally up 😍

I have been using this in all of my drinks from cocktails to tea to coffee. The combination of honey + lavender results in a super floral syrup that makes a delicious drink 🤩 plus I use half honey/half stevia to lower the sugar content!
