The hardest part for my clients is giving up sugar, sweets, and desserts. So I like to offer alternatives to dessert that contains cleaner ingredients. Most cakes, cookies, or any sweets contain either genetically engineered corn syrup or hydrogenated oils on top of high amounts of sugar. Strawberry energy bites are a wonderful healthy guilt-free treat you can feel good about putting in your body! Incorporating fruit or other plants is always the best choice with desserts. Strawberries contain a broad array of nutritional benefits. Strawberries are packed with vitamins and minerals such as vitamins C and K, folate, potassium, manganese, and magnesium. They are low-calorie, fiber-rich, and abundant…

Red lentil sloppy joes are a nutritious and economical dish but most importantly they taste amazing. Red lentils are rich in iron, fiber, selenium, zinc, carbohydrates, protein, and vitamin B1. Plus, they’re an excellent source of phosphorus, manganese, and folic acid. Unlike other legumes, lentils cook in about 30 minutes and don't require soaking so you can make a healthy meal when you are short on time. Ingredients: 1 tbsp of coconut oil or vegetable broth 1 red bell pepper finely chopped 2 garlic cloves minced 1 medium onion chopped (approx 2/3 cup) 2 tbsp tomato paste 1 bay leaf 8 ounces tomato sauce 1 1/2 cups of…

Chocolate Peppermint Energy Bites will help you stay energized and fully enjoy all the holiday cheer minus the sugar and chemicals. It's my natural version of a peppermint patty. You can make the balls or bites as big or small as you like. I like to make them small so I can pop them in my mouth or eat them on the go. As always, use organic ingredients when possible. As you may have heard me say, we aren't necessarily overweight, we are over-toxic. If you want to find out which foods are contributing to toxicity in your body, check this out. I've even found organic candy canes…

These treats are delicious for dessert or breakfast! The original recipe called for dried apricots but since I had dried mango on hand, I substituted. Be sure to use organic for all ingredients as conventional fruits and nuts contains toxic preservatives. Nuts, especially walnuts, can also contain BHT as a preservative which has to been linked to increased risk of cancer. Dried fruits may contain sulphur dioxide (sulfites) which has been linked to respiratory issues. The #1 Rule is to read ingredient labels and buy organic! 1 c of dried organic apricots or mango 1 c. pitted dates 1/2 c raw organic almonds 1/2 c raw organic cashews 1/2…

Banana Blueberry Overnight Oats A submitted recipe by Wendy Nugent, published with permission. This is basically my version of Overnight Oats In A Jar from a website called skinnytaste.com. I have been eating this as a quick go-to breakfast, but still felt like I was lacking in the protein department.

Let me know what you think! 2 Tbsp Modere Pure Vanilla Slim Shake or your favorite plant-based protein powder 1 cup Unsweetened Almond milk 1/4 cup old fashioned rolled…

Whether you are buying your eggplant from the local farmers market, growing your own or finding them in your CSA shares this month, consider trying this mouth watering whole foods recipe for a meat free night one day this week. Some notes on the recipe: The Arrowroot powder is the thickener in the sauce which replaces Cornstarch (typically GMO stuff). Obviously, cornstarch works as well if you don't have access to arrowroot. The Sweet & Sour Sauce would be great with stir-fry…

Countdown to Christmas & Traditions. Well, we are officially 7 days away and the countdown begins. For those traveling, this typically means WE have far less time to complete our holiday shopping so the pressure is on! I’ll be traveling to Michigan which is part of my tradition of going home. It’s a bittersweet trip as I’m excited to see my family but sad that my husband stays here as his daughters arrive from out-of-state. It was understood at the beginning of our relationship that this was the way it would be as there would be a time that our children would not be coming home. My son,…
