Homestyle chicken soup with a twist. Juice of 1/2 a lemon is the twist! It absolutely makes this soup delicious and bright. Lemons are so good for you, it gives the chicken noodle soup recipe even more nutritional value. My 11 month old daughter and I had the stomach flu […]
Comfort food. That’s what chicken and rice is to me. It’s warm. Hearty. Nutritious. Flavorful. This recipe is a one pan plan, which means less dishes to do afterward (which I love). The recipe also requires a lot of what you may already have in your fridge, freezer and pantry. […]
Celery juice is all the rage… however I don’t have as juicer but I wanted to make something that had similar benefits! The smoothie includes celery, banana, avocado and ginger. This is honestly one of my favorites smoothies I have ever made. It tastes so fresh, so healthy but is […]

Coconut water is great for hydration! Coconut water has so many incredible benefits due to its electrolytes, […]
This eggplant melt is one of my favorite summer bites. The combination of the creamy mozzarella cheese, crunchy bread, tender eggplant and juicy tomatoes creates a perfect summer melt. In the summer time, it’s easy to have these ingredients on hand. The tomatoes and eggplant are so juicy and vibrant […]
I have to admit, my salad game was always incredibly weak. The only salad I ever thought to make was a caesar, and after having 3 caesar salads a week, I knew I needed to expand my horizons on my knowledge of salad. What I have learned: This summer kale […]
It is officially Stone Fruit season! This recipe uses one of the stone fruits, apricots. This is a simple yet delicious dessert you can whip up for a quick snack or as a sweet dish for a barbeque. The apricot’s natural sweetness is the star, but the caramelization from the […]
