Four Ingredient Vegan Pumpkin Pie that’s OMG Delicious

We’re in the midst of the holiday season so I wanted to share a pumpkin pie that is an – I can’t believe it’s that good to be a healthy sweet treat – recipe with you.  You see, I was raised eating pumpkin pie with butter and brown sugar added to the fullest in most desserts during the Holidays.

Several Thanksgivings ago, my husband and I made our first Thanksgiving dinner.  It was just for the two of us, but we went all out from the stuffed Turkey, to mac and cheese, sweet potato souffle, to the stuffing and all the […]

Honey-Roasted Carrots and Beets

Bored with simple veggies and want to bring on the fancy?

As you may know I’m a super fan of veggies, but I gotta get creative from time to time with how I eat them or yes…healthy eating can be very bland and boring.

So I got super inspired when my eyes fixated on the recipe for these Honey-Roasted Carrots and Beets.  This recipe had me at the words honey-roasted.

Just sayin’ my taste buds were saying, “Um, yes please” when I was watching the cooking show from my streaming service for health, fitness and recipes.

Were they good?

Hubs and I so enjoyed […]

Ground Turkey and Cauliflower “Fried Rice”

It was super time and I had just finished working out to my new favorite fit jam, Shift Shop – the one I chose out of over 600 different workout programs – and I was starving!

Always with the workout program, you get all sorts of recipes to use throughout the workout calendar to help you get your best results.  And this eating plan was calling for us to cut back on those carbs!  Luckily, it had this recipe that stood out to us – as we love some Thai food and fried rice(GF).

We already use cauliflower as […]

Slow Cooker Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas

Omg, it’s enchiladas!!?

I’ll admit we were running a little behind schedule all day and with making dinner so we easily went a little crazy with the cheese – skipping the step where you measure it out before sprinkling it on top, ooops!??

Seriously speaking, ever since I did a 21-Day cleanse, I learned just how much eating too much cheese, effected my skin, sinuses, and just overall -how I felt throughout thy body.

So I do try to keep eating cheese to a min each week and even sometimes end up skipping a week simply because it’s just not an everyday go-to […]

Loaded Sweet Potato Skins

I love me some sweet potatoes.

For game day I had to share a yummy, guilty feelin’, yet healthy finger food with you to enjoy while watching the game.  I scored this recipe from one of my go-to healthy cookbooks, FIXATE.

These scrumptious potato skins are loaded with lean chicken breast(vegan option below) and spinach, melty cheese, crispy bacon, and creamy sour cream.  Can we say yum.

The best part?  They’re just a fraction of the calories of regular skins. Who’s says you can’t eat what you wanna?

It’s all about moderation, my superstars and this recipe has just the right balance!

Loaded Sweet Potato […]

Sexy Substitute for Mashed Potatoes

Love mashed potatoes, but trying to watch the carbs?

I may just have a solution for you.

Now, don’t get me wrong once in a while, I do still get down with the real deal garlic mashed potatoes as I believe in the rule of thumb of everything in moderation.

However, I experienced mashed cauliflower a little over two years having dinner at Veggie Grill and loved, loved, loved it!

Being from the south, I grew up on mashed potatoes and loved them, but where I’m at now in my life, being more health-conscious with my food choices, I now enjoy eating cauliflower […]

Healthy and Delicious Carrot Souffle {Gluten Free}

Carrots?  Yep, I’m a fan.  

I like my veggies, but I love when I find a yummy recipe to kick the delish factor up a notch.  I can easily get tired of eating them raw or cooking them steamed, grilled, or sautéed over and over and over again.

Ya feel me?  Bor-ing.

Over the years, I’ve found the easiest way to live a healthy lifestyle is by keeping it fun, yummy, and inspiring as much as possible.

Speaking of inspired…

I was raised to eat a balanced meal with some type of vegetable on my plate.  From my childhood years, I’ve kept the tradition of having a down […]
