Low Carb Meal Prep Bowls To Make Now So You Never Get Bored

I am obsessed with meal prepping. Every Sunday, I go through all my favorite recipes that I’ve pinned or booked throughout the week and decide what would be craveable (& easy!) for the week ahead. I typically prep low carb, keto friendly recipes with the macros that work for me (you can read more about that here).

Ditch the Carbs: Why You Need to Try the Keto Diet NOW!

Ditch the Carbs: Why You Need to Try the Keto Diet NOW!

Fat isn’t the enemy! For years and years we were told that eating fat will make you fat, and even worse, it will basically make your heart and arteries explode. We are now realizing that maybe some fats aren’t so bad and are actually a much healthier alternative to low fat/ high sugar carbs (anyone else used to think a fat free muffin with a day’s worth of sugar was the healthiest choice?).

Friday Faves!

Happy Friday & happy long weekend! Whenever there is a three day weekend, I always plan a lot of things – hang out with friends, clean the house, workout every day, plan an epic meal prep, and try a little self-care to finish up the weekend.

Most of that turns into shoulda, woulda, coulda & I spend my weekend sipping margaritas & lounging in front of Netflix. This weekend will be different! No, really I swear. I’ve rounded up my favorite recipes, must reads, the most shoppable sales & an easy self-care routine to stick to even if I do sip one too many drinks.

MUST SIP

Citrus Summer Sangria

With summer coming to an end, I wanted a really citrusy & fun drink. This sangria is super refreshing, flavorful and is the perfect drink to send off summer!

SELF CARE

I wrote this post about my favorite ways to treat myself in the evening before I go to sleep. My routine has gotten a  little off track, but these activities are SO doable that there really is no excuse. I’ll be incorporating this routine back into my nightly rituals!

MUST EAT

This pasta dish is good, loaded with veggies & bursting with flavor. Definitely a lighter take on the typical mayo laden pasta side dish.
