Holiday Survival Group + 12 Days of Giveaways!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I LOVE everything about the holidays! Yes, the cookies, the cocktails, the shopping, the gift giving, the music, the Hallmark movies… all reasons why I LOVE this time of year. But my FAVORITE part of the holiday season is the magical feeling that surrounds this time of year. And yes, we put our tree up yesterday in case you were wondering! But don’t worry, I’m not going to bust out carols on you yet. Although, I will say, it does feel a bit more joyous and almost magical during the holidays, am I right? As a mother to three little girls who…

Nutrition Simplified- Achieving Balance and Sustainability
Nutrition is my jam. Now, anyway. It wasn’t always. Yeah, I ate “healthy”. Lean Cuisines and Diet Coke used to be my jam. I paid zero attention to what I was putting in my body, but fully believed that a 1500 calorie salad was a good lunch choice and could nearly eat my weight in steak, baked potato, and buttery green beans at dinner… protein, carb, veggie, right? About 5 years ago I committed to and dove into a fitness and nutrition program that would forever change the landscape of how I approached my nutrition. One that allowed for balance. See, I was always under the impression you could have…

Summer Sweet Corn Chowder
Harvest is near. Driving home every day we’re surrounded by cornfields and bean fields. I can see them starting to change. Corn stalks turning brown. Bean leaves yellowing after a summer of repeated rain and midwestern sun beating down. And my heart leaps a little bit because it means my favorite season is approaching. One of my favorite things about fall is food. Okay, I lied. I like food in every season. But I LOVE fall food. Crockpots. Instapots. Chili simmering on the stove. Football season food. The smells of cinnamon and nutmeg and pumpkin pie spice. I’m drooling just typing this. With summer is drawing to a close,…

Choco-Banana Gluten Free Granola Bites
When the monsters awake from their slumber, it’s always a guess what they’re going to want for breakfast. They’re imdivually picky and equally hard to please so it takes effort to find something they all agree upon. I was pleased they all love these yummy chocolate banana granola bites aka mini muffins! They’re gluten free and no added sugar too! Not only do they make for a quick breakfast or to pop in their lunchbox, they’re a great after school snack and have a little extra protein and hidden fruit and veggie in them too! I hope your kiddos enjoy them as much as mine do! Ingredients: 2 mashed…

Sweet Potato Breakfast Casserole
Some mornings call for breakfast casseroles. Today was one of those mornings. Typically on Sunday nights I pour a lot of time into meal prepping for the week, but last night I was drained, exhausted, and frankly I just didn’t feel like it. So after a long, somewhat rested night, I devoted 15 minutes of my morning to prepping breakfast for the week. It turned out as good as I imagined. I hope you enjoy it! Ingredients: 3 medium/large sweet potatoes, diced 6 whole eggs + 6 egg whites 3 c chopped spinach 4 small sweet peppers, chopped 1/2 c cherry tomatoes, sliced 1 tsp Italian seasoning 1 tsp…

Holiday Survival Group + 12 Days of Giveaways: November 27th – January 1st
‘Tis the season… To make attempts to stay on track… but in reality… wine, turkey, appetizers, boozy festive drinks, parties, and too many cookies ALWAYS interfere with those plans.As much as I’d always used to tell myself that it’s going to be different this year, old habits die hard and I’d end up feeling pretty sluggish come January 1st.Wouldn’t it be nice to just get through the holidays without the added bloat, weight gain, and diving into the Christmas cookies at every opportunity? And maybe snag some cool holiday swag in the process?My official Holiday Survival Group + 12 Days of Giveaways kicks off with a week of PREP on Monday…

October Clean Week- Kickstart Your Journey
How many times has it been for you? 3? 8? 15? I’ve probably “tried” and “quit” 7 or 8 things in the past after deciding it was “too hard” or it wasn’t for me or I just wasn’t feeling it, or ultimately wasn’t ready. I thought a lot of times, I seriously wish you could just “try on” a healthy lifestyle to see if it fits? A see if this is for me sort of thing…. Well, here it is. One full week of workouts, nutrition, meal planning simplified, grocery shopping/lists and a week of my support and accountability to help you navigate how to make it work and see…

Healthy Organic Smoothie for Kids- What is Daily Sunshine?
As a mom and a pediatric nurse, want to hear something that freaks me out!? Today, about one in five school-aged children (ages 6–19) has obesity. The obesity rates in children has TRIPLED since the 70’s. And our children are developing more preventable diseases now than ever before. Their activity levels have declined and their obesity rates have increased. (Read the latest CDC data HERE) And a big majority of that is due to nutrition. We’re failing our children, momma’s and dad’s. And something has to change. Let’s be honest, as a momma, feeding my kids healthy options isn’t always the easiest. Some days we count veggie chips as…
