Lunch Ideas

We’ve talked a lot about dinner and breakfast, and at this point, you might be asking yourself–does this girl ever eat lunch? Of course I do! There’s so many ways to pull together a healthy lunch that fits your needs and schedule, but if the possibilities are overwhelming and you just need somewhere to start,…

Hawaiian Barbecue Chicken

Good things come in threes, right? Well, I’ve got a recipe for you that consists of three ingredients, made in three steps, and can be paired with three other sides. Which gives us three reasons as to why this recipe is so wonderful, so you know it’s got to be a winner. Here’s all you…

Sweet Tooth Solutions

If I had a dollar for every time someone told me about their sweet tooth – well, you know. Hey, I’m all for treats in moderation, but it’s far too easy to get carried away and sabotage yourself when it comes to your goals. And while there’s something to be said for learning the art…

On Struggling

Hey. I have a question for you. Do you feel like you’re struggling right now? I was reminded recently that it’s okay to struggle. It’s okay not to have it all together. It’s okay to learn and grow and become. If you’re struggling, that means you’re fighting. If you’re struggling, that means you’re trying. It’s…

Honey Dijon Pork Tenderloin

I’ll be real with you: The first time I tried making this pork tenderloin recipe, it threw me for a loop. Not because the recipe itself is complicated, but because I have an apparent knack for making simple things more difficult. What can I say. It’s how I roll. I made a post on Instagram…

On Old Habits

Y’all know I like to keep things positive, but I also like to keep it real. And things are about to get really real. I recently made a post on Instagram (check out my account here or at the bottom of the blog!) with a series of pictures of things most would consider “junk food”….

On Easiness

I’ve been thinking a lot about this quote I saw from Bob Goff: “What’s simple isn’t always easy, what’s easy doesn’t always last.” This whole healthy living thing–it’s not complicated. It’s actually quite simple. Eat well. Exercise. Take care of yourself. While there’s nuances and details and science behind those statements, the bottom line is,…

Asian Chicken Meatballs

Meatballs are a great option for a quick, healthy meal. They’re easy to throw together, a great source of protein, and making one huge batch can turn into multiple meals. While they can be served in a variety of ways, I love making mine with an Asian twist. Here’s all you need: The original recipe…
