I love having a BIG salad for dinner. And this crunchy savory chopped salad fits the bill. It comes together in about 10 minutes, making it the star of a weeknight dinner, potluck or elevated lunch. Depending on your preference and choice of ingredients, it can easily be made Paleo, Keto, vegetarian or Whole30 compliant. This is less
It's a vinaigrette. It's a salad dressing. It's a sauce. It's a marinade. I had a heck of a time coming up with a name for this recipe, because it's less of a recipe and more of a technique. And when I say "technique" don't get scared and think that it's too fancy. What I really mean is that you throw five very simple ingredients
Made with only 5 simple ingredients in 45 minutes the "trick" to this recipe is that you add the vinaigrette mixture to the cooked potatoes when they are warm. That lets the warm potatoes soak in all of the lemony, herby, garlic-y goodness. And it's Paleo, vegan, gluten-free, and Whole30 compliant.
Guacamole is my spirit animal. It’s definitely one of my all-time favorite foods, especially in the summer when the tomatoes and Jalapeno peppers are really fresh. All you really need to make guacamole is ripe avocados and salt. After that, a little lime or lemon juice—a splash of acidity— will help to balance the richness of
This super quick and easy vegetable side dish comes together in less than 15 minutes and serves two to four people. Al dente green beans (Haricot verts) get an Asian umami pop from the sauteed mushrooms, onions and coconut aminos.
This oh-so-creamy, rich soup tastes like springtime in a bowl. It's deliciously creamy but it includes no cream ... no dairy at all. It's also low calorie, Paleo, Whole30, grain-free and vegetarian (if made with vegetable stock.) With only a handful of squeaky clean ingredients, it's quick and easy to make, reheats well and freezes

I\'m a girl who believes in continuously trying to improve -- that\'s just how I\'m wired.
However, this year, I\'m making some changes. Last year was challenging and just two weeks into 2021, the daily news and the ongoing pandemic feel like a LOT. So I\'m focusing my goals on improving my daily habits and on things that I CAN CONTROL.
Let me give you an example. Rather than saying \\"I want to lose X pounds\\", I\'ve set a goal to workout 25 times a month, to drink more water, and to eat an early dinner and stop snacking in the evenings. Those are all things I\'m in complete control over. If I focus on them, I\'m hoping that the pounds will take care of themselves. And if that doesn\'t happen, at least I\'ve established some healthy daily habits.
One other thing I can control are the products I put on my body and use in our home. I\'m more committed than ever to ensuring that I find (and share) high-performing products that are cleaner, less toxic, and better for the planet.
What are you goals for 2020?
Tomorrow, I\'m doing a giveaway of BeautyCounter\'s brand new Clean Deodorant. I\'ve been testing it for the past few months and I can\'t wait to tell you all about it.
