The Early Riser is a beet juice recipe made with beets, carrots, pineapple, and lemon that make a tangy and tart juice that will wake you up, put a pep in your step and also give you all of the beet juice benefits! Easy Beet Juice Recipe. So after lots of time off over the holidays, I'm welcoming the weekend and this beet juice recipe with all of the beet juice benefits! This weekend the priority is to take down our Christmas tree and decor. We did remove the garland and wreath from the front door last week which was a big step for me. But I'm still loving lighting the Christmas tree early in the morning and in the evening. We're holding on to the last of the season as much as possible. Because I kinda have a hard time letting the holiday season go. Can ... View Post
Vegetarian Spaghetti Squash Boats
This post is sponsored by the Canned Food Alliance. Vegetarian Spaghetti Squash Boats are the ultimate healthy comfort food made whole simple ingredients just right for a weeknight. Who's set New Year's resolutions already? I can tell you this much, it's on my to-do list. My goal is to sit down long enough to evaluate last year and put together a list of goals for 2015. Maybe I will need to resolve to clear my schedule and prioritize my goals before I can set new goals. Any who, I'm a list maker and thrive when I have a schedule with things to cross off. Even simple stuff like "give Pearl a bath" or "send so and so an email". Maybe this is extreme, but I can easily forget things if I don't write it down. I love how the New Year gives a fresh perspective and a time to look back at how ... View Post

Anyone else out there wishing we could rewind the holidays and start again? How is the most wonderful time of the year already behind us and we are back to full work weeks? I was just starting to get use to spending lots more time with Eric and the rest of the fam. Welp, it's back to the daily grind. But the good news is we are still in party mode over here because it's Regan Jones' 40th Birthday today. A group of about 40 bloggers got together to give her a surprise virtual birthday bash! Yep, virtual because that's what bloggers do. It's fitting because Regan and I met through blogging way back when Love & Zest began, ... View Post
Christmas Traditions 2014
For those that celebrate I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!! It was extra joyful for Eric and me this year. Lots of family time and time off work for both of us, which is a rare occurrence but it was really needed and restful. Which is why I've been quiet on the blog as well. I hope you all had some good space from the usual routine to rest and relax and enjoy the people that mean the most to you. Eric and I kicked off the week with a little family get together at our house filled with warm bowls of chili and s'mores over the came fire. I always love entertaining especially this time of year. We went home to our parents houses (who live 10 minutes from each other), and stopped at Eric's parents house first for a new tradition, Christmas Eve Brunch. I made a Sausage ... View Post
Training Tuesday: Tennis Edition
Hey friends! Eric and I went out to play tennis on Sunday. It was my first time on the court in over 5 years, and needless to say I'm still sore. After playing for 10 minutes, the game was whipping me. These old familiar movements that I haven't done in half a decade! Gosh, that makes me sound really old. I grew up playing competitive tennis, and it's a sport my whole family played. My brother DJ who also lives in Orlando played tennis in college at Florida Institute of Technology and my littlest bro Tyler is a freshman on the team at the University of Central Florida. DJ gives tennis lessons in Orlando so naturally, he was drilling me with a basket of balls as soon as I stepped on the court. I'm like whoa-- slow down. This lady hasn't seen the court in years. DJ ... View Post
Low Sugar Sweet Potato Casserole
Low Sugar Sweet Potato Casserole. Gluten free vegan comfort food that tastes just like the holidays. Go grab a spoon, you’re gonna love it! Friends! Can you believe Christmas is only one week away!? I just love this time of year and it’s going by way too quickly. I’m one of those that leaves the Christmas tree up until mid January because I want to savor every last drop of the season and the flavors too like this Low Sugar Sweet Potato Casserole. This week, I’ve been doing my best to slow down in the mornings and connect to what’s most important to me. Often I get my priorities mixed up and this is a great time to reconnect and just be still. I always feel much more grounded when I do that because I have a different perspective, one that sees the bigger picture and the tiny blessings ... View Post
