This post is sponsored by the National Watermelon Board. Homemade Sour Watermelon Fruit Chews. Gummies better known as "yummies" at our house are my toddler's favorite food group. And you should also know that he does not discriminate when it comes to yummies. He gets excited about his gummy vitamins every morning, but to his frustration he can only have two... because ya know, toxicity. So this good mom found all the types of yummies... omega 3s, probiotics, vitamin D, multivitamin, you see, so he gets a handful now. Hey, I'll take what I can get and if he gets excited about taking his vitamins in the morning, and I'll count that as a mom win. He takes after me in that he LOVES sour candy, so when I set out to make homemade gummies I knew I had to make them sour. Little did I know ... View Post
Birthday Cake Pancakes
Cake for breakfast... heck yes! Birthday Cake Pancakes that tastes like you're licking cake batter right out of the bowl... with sprinkles of course. I've been super quiet on the blog the last few weeks, because <<spoiler alert>> I've been snuggling a newborn! Yep, we had our baby a week early and on Valentine's Day. Click here to read our birth story: I had a baby on an elevator! If you follow me on Instagram, you've likely already seen our sweet little nugget... because I just can't stop with the insta stories. When our second child was born, we had a toddler at home. He was 2 years 4 months when baby number two made his entrance and very excited to become a big brother. I knew we'd be away for sometime with the delivery and he would be at home with my mom so I wanted him ... View Post
PB&J Chickpea Smoothie
This post is sponsored by Welch’s. PB&J Chickpea Smoothie, a vegan protein shake that takes you back to your childhood. We love this recipe because it’s made with 4 whole food ingredients—chickpeas, 100% grape juice, peanut butter, and flax. Gimme. I’m always looking for ways to sneak more nutrition into our routines, and a daily smoothie habit is a foolproof way to get in the good stuff. We love smoothies at our house and it’s an easy mom win for me when my husband and son both slurp them down. My son may not eat a side of veg at dinner and often picks out the “green ones” mixed into his mac ‘n cheese, but I have yet to hear a complaint about any smoothie I’ve made him. When fruits and veg go undercover in a smoothie it’s easy for us to all meet our daily quota. My power play when ... View Post
Natural Birth Story: I had a baby on the elevator
Images in this post are by Artful Life Studios. Our Natural Birth Story I still can't believe that our natural hospital birth was on the elevator... on Valentine's Day. It's taken me a little while to share our birth story here on the blog because to be honest I've been soaking up our baby's sweet newborn cuddles. He's the most peaceful child (I still don't know how two high strung people produced a calm and peaceful child?), but he is here and it's been ahhhhmazing! #newmombliss. Second baby is so much different If you've been following along for a while, you may know that our first came out kicking and screaming and has been full throttle ever since, and we had a super rough post due date labor... so when this little bundle popped out fast and furious a week before his due date, ...

Eggs Benedict BLT with Avocado Hollandaise
Eggs Benedict BLT with Avocado Hollandaise, a hearty comforting breakfast recipe that's packed with nutrition thanks to avocados. You've gotta try this Avocado Hollandaise made with avocado, lemon juice, olive oil and cayenne pepper. It's crazy simple to toss together into a creamy perfection. Traditional hollandaise made with egg yolks can be finicky to prepare at home, requiring a double boiler and lots of whisking to keep the eggs from scrambling. And regular hollandaise sauce also calls for... LOTS OF BUTTER. Like a full stick (1/2 cup) for 4 servings. YIKES! Now don't get me wrong I love butter and a good traditional hollandaise sauce, but we all know AVOCADOS take the cake when it comes to health benefits and the flavor of this Eggs Benedict BLT with Avocado Hollandaise is ...

If you're looking for a raw vegan dessert that's made with whole food ingredients, well look no further than these Vegan Strawberry Cheesecake Minis! Strawberries are so sweet this time of year that I just can't help myself... and I love having these little babies on hand as a single serve dessert when the sweet tooth flairs up or to serve at a dinner party! I think they'd make the best Valentine's Day dessert! Oh and did I mention, these Vegan Strawberry Cheesecake Minis don't have to be baked!? So no oven or cooking required. Once the ingredients have been layered in the jars, just pop them in the fridge to set. Taking a bite ... View Post
