I have discovered this little restaurant near my work place where they make THE BEST sauces with just the right amount of zingy spices. Just veggies and chicken cooked in a sauce that explodes Continue reading »

You guys know I like easy. I also like butter chicken…a lot. This is an amazing low carb sauce for over cauliflower rice or even just Continue reading »

It’s high time we have another spirulina recipe again.

Those of you have who followed my blog for a while will know that this green stuff rocks my little world. Why is that, you say…

Well, here are some reasons it’s good for you, but I noticed a huge difference with my hormonal imbalances, energy, and even my skin! Really, I also just like it because it’s a fabulous mufti-vitamin loaded with minerals/antioxidants and I feel like it just covers me in the robe of nutritious righteousness. My favourite brand in the entire world is from Nutrex Hawaii…just thought you should know that. You can also now go buy it…because you will Love. How. It. Makes. You. Feel.

Anyway, I tried something new and decided you should try it.

Guacamole just got holy.

Well, not really…I just said that because it rhymed…but it definitely becomes like an extra, extra, extra superfood. Angelic really.

Spirulina Guacamole

1. 1 avocado
2. 1 Roma tomato, chopped
3. 1 large handful cilantro, chopped
4. 1/2 lemon, juiced
5. 1-2 tbsp. spirulina*
6. 1/4 tsp. sea salt

*Depending on how much you “like” the taste of spirulina

Mash the avocado and then mix everything together. Done. The end.

So while you can have this with crackers of flax chips…I really just like eating it with leaves of Romaine lettuce. The. Best.

Like me, one of my amazing roommates is a health nut. She’s a genius at creating delicious-ness out of things like…dandelion greens. Once I first tasted her recipe for dandelion pesto, I asked her if I could share the goodness with you.

I’ve only had dandelion greens in smoothies and juices Continue reading »

Even though I don’t have the slightest amount of Italian in me, there’s this part of me that loves pasta. A lot. However, I’m not a fan of the high carb/high gluten properties of those ridiculously good noodles. After my recent post with the Italian MasterChef contestant Luca, I had a large craving for a big bowlful of pasta. I think his Italian accent made me hungry…

However, I notice that high carb/sugar foods seem to affect my body more negatively than higher caloric foods. This doesn’t mean I skip out on pasta

I must confess that I haven’t been eating a lot of salads lately. I absolutely love salad, but my favourite salads are the ones that I make interesting. You know, the salad meals that are loaded with different veggies of Continue reading »
