As a lover of nutrition, and a firm believer that a good diet and a healthy lifestyle can go extremely far into preventing illness, it might be surprising to you that I don’t think we should aim–or need to be–100% healthy. Don’t get me wrong: I take my health incredibly seriously. I have used good

Paleo Chocolate Coffee Banana Bread
I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to get around to this post! This recipe is so tasty (and sooo gluten-free) and I’ve been pumped to share it. And yet. I think winter has me wanting to hermit inside and drop everything that doesn’t involve being tucked into my blankets like a snug burrito.

Green Antioxidant Smoothie Bowl
Today is my birthday! Go ahead: tell me nice things about myself, I’ll wait. (Just kidding, I wait for nothing.) In all seriousness, it feels good to say that I’m now 27.

Grain-Free Cranberry Orange Pancakes ( + the importance of setting boundaries)
Pancakes are literally the best breakfast food. And bacon. Duh. But these Grain-Free Cranberry Orange Pancakes are so good! And so easy to make. You literally just dump all the ingredients into the blender, blitz it up and pour into a hot pan. And then you eat the first three while you wait for the

Paleo Plum + Apple Cake
Good morning lovely humans! I’m currently eating a slice of this heavenly Paleo Plum + Apple Cake, as a I sip on my coffee and plan my day. It is really good. A little bit tart from the plums, with the sweetness of maple syrup. I also just love cake for breakfast. It always feels super indulgent.

How To Get Back On Track With Your Diet
Good morning all! I feel like this morning has been so productive. It hasn’t, whatsoever, but I did wake up an hour earlier than usual thanks to the clocks going back. So it felt like I was productive, because I had an extra hour to sit in pajamas and make paleo pancakes. It’s a hard life,
