You may know that I’ve been using and loving Nuzest Clean Lean Protein. I love how clean it is – just a few awesome ingredients, and the texture – it makes my smoothies super creamy. So I want to give you a few awesome offers Nuzest has this month, in case you’re feeling ready to […]
You might notice that a lot of my dishes are paleo. In my upcoming breakfast class, I am teaching paleo pancakes and paleo oatmeal. I want to share a little bit with you about my view on paleo and some of the other strict diets out there. First, what is the paleo diet? It excludes grains, […]
I’ve had lots of requests for a “breakfast class” and I’m excited to bring it to you on July 20th, because I’m one of those people who thinks breakfast is super important. I tend to eat a big breakfast, a big lunch, and super light dinner. That way, the hours that I’m awake, active, and productive are fueled […]
I’m off caffeine for a while, so I thought I’d post about some of my favorite ways to get energy without it! Don’t forget to get plenty of rest, eat nourishing foods, and get moderate exercise to keep yourself moving! This week I made a morning energy cocktail (pictured) with Brain ON (E3 Live +), Ginger, Lemon, Cilantro, Dandelion […]

These are exciting times! We’re getting ready to open a second Source location, and my co-author Taji and I have been taken on by a literary agent to represent our forthcoming cookbook! While stress can run high, I’m trying to take moments wherever I can to breathe and enjoy what’s in front of me. Between my sweet puppy Sadie, […]
Let me start by saying I feel very lucky on Mother’s Day. I know that not everyone is this lucky. My mom is my best friend. She inspires me. She’s supportive, loving, spiritual, and intuitive. Maybe my favorite part about my mom: she has always encouraged me to be who I am. She has always been the […]
Spring brings a lot more than peas, asparagus, and baby leeks. Food-wise, things get lighter, greener, fresher, and crisper… but I also love that the days are longer and I stay motivated to take evening walks. I can spend more time in nature and be more active outside the gym. I also love to slow […]
I love this salad because it’s light and it’s a great way to use veggies you have ready from your meal prep day. I love the texture of the steamed broccoli with the raw stems and carrots… add the nuttiness of the hemp seeds, and I’m in heaven. This salad is packed with omega 3s, fiber, plant protein, and […]
