PROTEIN WAFFLES! 

Add these to your breakfast rotation! So freaking delicious and SUPER EASY to make! 

Best part - kid friendly and has a vegetable they’ll NEVER suspect (not that I think you should "hide" things from your kids in their food)! 

I took my favored Oat Bran Protein Pancakes, and turned them into waffles!

Only added 1 more ingredient and VOILA. 

Here’s what you need:

• 1/3 cup GF OatBran (I like Bob's Red Mill)
• 1/3 cup egg whites
• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I…

Carrot Cake Breakfast Bake

Ok, I’m slightly obsessed with this new breakfast dish! I scrolled on Instagram, was stopped by a Reel that showed it, so I had to try it.

And as always, I had to make it my own - so here’s my rendition of it:

* 1/3 c oat flour (I pulverized GF Sprouted oats)
* 1 scoop vanilla protein power (I used Vegan Vanilla Shakeology)
* 1/2 tsp baking soda
* Nutmeg (I don’t measure)
* Cinnamon (go for it!)
* Ginger (go easy)
* 1/8 tsp Himalayan Salt (I didn’t measure, but just in ca…

How often do you truly take inventory of your daily activities? Like legit, sit down and write down EVERYTHING you do in a 24 hour period?

If not, and you are always "so busy", "don't have time...", I challenge you to take 2 weeks (ok, fine even ONE WEEK) to document EVERY SINGLE ACTIVITY you do in a day! 

If you've done it before, and it's been a hot minute, go revisit your log or do it again. Have behaviors changed? You see pockets of opportunity? 

We live on a society where "I'm so busy" o…

I had fun playing with a new PLANT-BASED/VEGETARIAN Soup aka Bean-Like Chili! 

It was super easy to make, MASSIVELY filling and made for a good few days of meals!! 

Here's what I did (and hubby LOVES it - coming from a meat eater)! It's ENTIRELY plant based - so if you need to add some additional protein - do it up and have fun!

INGREDIENTS: 

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dried coriander
2 large carr…

The 2018 Farm Bill defined hemp as cannabis with no more than 0.3% THC, which is the intoxicating compound found in that other form of cannabis: marijuana. Since then hemp has gone mainstream, with the most trendy product being CBD. However, CBD isn’t the only thing that can be made from hemp. It turns out hemp seeds are one of the most nutritious foods you can put in your body, and the fiber from hemp stalks are not only strong and durable but also a healthier sustainable alternative to synth…

Hormone talk seems to be ALL. THE. RAGE. right now! 

Honestly, rightly so! 

It's really uncharted waters for so many women, as we beat ourselves up for eating healthy, cutting out the bad stuff, yet we still have an extra 20 lbs or the worst PMS symptoms, than when we were teens! 

I've become super fascinating with understand hormones and how they work, addressing the root cause to symptomatic clients and working on a holistic solution. For someone that despised Biology and Science related cl…
