For the last two years I have made this seasonal pumpkin pie dip. It is super quick, doesn’t call for a lot of ingredients and offers up some fab, fall-themed presentation for Halloween parties. But the best part is it tastes like you are indulging in decadent pumpkin pie with fluffy whipped topping laced into every bite. This dip is also wicked flexible. It keeps for up to a week in the fridge so I used it as a topping…
My Healthy Wendy’s Chocolate Frosty Recipe Hack Using Cauliflower Rice
If you have ever been pregnant, what was your most passionate food craving? Think back. When I was pregs with Camden it was buffalo wings. We lived near this pub, Big Ben’s, in South End Charlotte and they knew me on a first name basis since I stopped in so often. When pregnant with Brody, it was a Wendy’s Chocolate Frosty. This is kind of embarrassing since Frosties are fast food, full of sugar, processed and dairy-filled. It goes against…
This Green Juice Recipe Changed My Life – No Juicer Required
Last week someone posted a photo on FB asking the question, “When you get out of quarantine, will you be THE HUNK, THE CHUNK OR THE DRUNK?” Honestly, I think I’ve teetered between all three.

I told my husband that the stress from…

This paleo chicken zoodle soup is a family staple during…
Light Mexican Chicken Bake (Perfect For Football Season)
I wrote this three years ago (39 weeks pregnant with Brody!), but it is still one of our game-day healthy favorites. This meal is quick, easy and perfect for a last minute family dinner when you have other things consuming your time. I wanted to share this recipe with you because it’s great for a weeknight or college football Saturdays. It has only 300 calories per serving, but tastes much more sinful. You can even assemble it ahead of time,…
Star Spangled White Sangria for 4th of July
Star Spangled White Sangria for 4th of July – Nothing gets people in the mood to celebrate like sangria. Sweet, refreshing and alcohol-masking, it is a delishly deceiving party in a pitcher. The most authentic sangrias are simple with minimal ingredients. The times I’ve had sangria in Spain it was garnished with only a few orange slices. But sometimes more fruit is festive, especially with the red, white and blue palette of strawberries, blueberries, star-shaped watermelon and honey crisp apples. Our…
