Does this sound familiar? I know I hear it almost every day from clients, friends, family members. We live in a world of constant stressors.
Read MoreI want to take a minute to talk about religion. And let me say now that I promise, this isn't going where you think it is...
Read MoreAn egg poached in bone broth with some greens and/or avocado thrown in became my hero breakfast for many cold days. And guess what? It takes the same amount of time as a smoothie!
Read MoreSummer is around the corner (although what is up with this cold front?!) and I have some major summer pep in my step. That could be due to the weather, but I think a lot of it has to do with this awesome retreat I attended last weekend (so awesome it inspired me to get my booty back to writing).
Read MoreAs this cool weather ramps up and colds abound, I wanted to share my protocol for as soon as I feel the sniffles or that chill coming on.
Read MoreThis is one of my FAVORITE late night, easy on the tummy dinners (or breakfasts!). It's great because if you're like me, you always have eggs and miso paste in your fridge, and maybe even and apple or two lying around.
Read MoreI'm pretty sure everyone likes sweet potatoes. They are the most inviting winter vegetable (in my opinion). I do love squash, but you run a much higher risk of coming in contact with a less than flavorful squash than you do a sweet potato.

Read MoreChia is one of those ingredients that you just find more and more uses for. After using it to top oatmeal, make pudding, and keep myself hydrated adding it to my water, a few months ago I discovered the most delicious new use for chia--JAM!!
Read MoreThere are few things in this world that spark the joy in my heart that t'china does (in israel that's how they pronounce it: "tch ih neh". It's infinitely more sexy than our American TAHEENEE. *hands over eyes emoji*)
Read MoreCinnamon is such a common ingredient in our food; it's on lattes, in baked goods, and even in savory cooking used in braises and sauces. Which is usually great! When you ingest high quality cinnamon, you're getting a whole ton of benefits (not to mention delicious flavor).
Read MoreAs some of you know my part time job is one where I get to cook for and with middle schoolers at an awesome school in Sunset Park BK (how lucky am I?). Our current theme is *apples*. Perfect for this season!
Read MoreAs an optimist, I like to think that there are delicious treats out there that aren't bad for us. Ones that may actually be...healthy?
