Almond Coconut Acai Bowl Have you tried acai? I hadn't until recently and was surprised when I did some research on the berry that it's super low carbohydrate. 1 unsweetened acai packet is 70 calories and only 4 carbs. Most other berries are 15-20g carbs for the same amount of calories. It was also interesting to find out that the reason that acai is only sold in juices and frozen concentrates is because the berry contains a hard pit in the middle and the only edible part of the berry is the skin, so naturally they have been grinding the skins to form this acai puree. The U.S. has ... View Post

What is a Plant Based Diet?
This post is sponsored by Sprouts Farmers Market. Plant based eating is on trend and while you may be seeing the phrase everywhere, what does a plant based diet really mean? A plant based diet is often used interchangeably with vegan and vegetarianism, but this dietitian over here has her own thoughts on the subject. While you may see it all over packaged products that are derived from plant ingredients and popularized by the latest vegan documentary films, there isn’t a formal definition for the term.
