a whole foods approach to health and wellness
Muffins! I adore a good muffin. If you know me well, you know one of my weaknesses is specifically a pistachio muffin from the local grocery store that is nearly 500 calories for the whole thing. I use to be really BAD and get one almost every time I went to the store which is […] Read more…
Easter is almost here and one thing I truly miss since going vegan is eggs! I loved eggs growing up. Scrambled was my egg of choice, but as I got older I really enjoyed hard boiled eggs as a snack.

vWhat is one of your favorite comfort foods? Shepard pie, spaghetti, casseroles? For me, it has always been macaroni and cheese! This was actually one of the first things I ever made on my own back when I was probably about 12 years old. When I use to babysit some of the kids in the […] Read more…
Pizza fans raise your hand!! My husband and I LOVE pizza and enjoy making it at home fairly regularly. With our new Breville Toaster Oven we can make personal pizzas with ease!
