No-Bake Energy Bites (Warning: Addictive – eat at your own risk!)

These are amazingly scrumptious. I can’t get enough. Nor can anyone else in my family, or the neighbor who kindly lent me her food processor when mine died mid-recipe. They’re a great replacement for energy or granola bars crammed with sugar – the only thing in here that isn’t a healthy simple ingredient is the the chocolate chips, and you can make your own if you’d like these to be 100% healthy! But I don’t mind cutting corners once in a while… 🙂

Tropical Green Smoothie *Recipe* – Inspired by Vitamix

Overnight Banana Oatmeal Recipe

I fell in love when I found this recipe. It’s only a few minutes of prep time, and you end up with 4 servings of oatmeal ready to go in your fridge at a moment’s notice. It tastes amazing, and doesn’t have the added sugar found in the prepackaged stuff I ate all the time as a kid.

A New Year’s Pick-Me-Up!

If you’re looking for a little pick-me-up, I’ve got just the thing.

I get a LOT of requests to share my smoothie recipes. I don’t usually measure when I make my smoothies – you know, a handful of this, a little of that! – but this time, I made an exception for my favorite green smoothie recipe.

This recipe is one of my all-time best. I recently hosted a small gathering at my home, and the other women LOVED it – and they’re not even Health Junkies!

Mouthwatering Zucchini Bread Recipe

I like to play with recipes.

I’m continuously looking for ways to improve recipes – upgrading to whole grains, switching out oils for less processed versions, and adding lots of mushrooms to my soups. (Mmmm…)

This week’s experiment? Mouthwatering zucchini bread, with a healthy whole-grain twist.

Our New Breakfast Favorite: Avocado Toast

Breakfast is the new favorite meal in our house for one simple reason: avocado toast!

Have you ever tried it? It’s amazingly delicious.

It’s also a great way to start the day. Just 1/2 an avocado (about 2/3 cup or 100 grams) packs in some awesome healthy fats that will help keep you full until lunchtime. Many of my weight-loss clients in the past have feared fat, so I want to stress that fat does NOT make you fat! Even better…
