Juicing Recipes - Ultimate Juice Recipe Resouce

^^ Remember when I used to crumble muffins on all things?! I totally forgot about this technique until I had some pumpkin muffins on hand and muscle memory had me recreating the crumbled muffin bowl. I am testing some recipes for an upcoming post, and suddenly got the strongest craving for fall when the smell of pumpkin and cinnamon wafted through my house! I haven’t been good about meal planning and prepping in several months. But with so many activities going on this summer, we are coming home hungry and not wanting to cook a meal from scratch. So per this morning’s post , I took an hour after lunch yesterday to prep our meals for the rest of the week. I hope my cutting board stays in the cabinet for the rest of the week! I had this salad for lunch – romaine, dill havarti, red peppers, jalapeños and tuna salad that Thomas made. Plus a drizzle of Mazen’s Supper Club salad dressing. Thomas and I had soccer last night – a huge win for the orange team! I wish I could play soccer ...

First off, let’s settle one thing right away. Grilling is not the same as barbecuing. Barbecue means big cuts of meat cooked low and slow. Depending on the animal, it can be an all-day affair with hours of preparation and plenty of leisure. In other words, it’s an actual event. With the time and labor intensity, barbecuing (as Michael Pollan put it so well recently) is the stuff of primal ritual, the site of social cohesion in our evolutionary story. Grilling, on the other hand, offers the smoke and fire experience without the bigger doings. While not as idyllic a prospect, it’s convenient. It means throwing a steak on the grill after work and eating it 20 minutes later. That’s the beauty of grilling. It’s relatively quick, requires very little clean up, and let’s you kick back outdoors while cooking dinner. In order to relax, however, it’s good to be confident that dinner won’t go up in flames. Luckily, what separates someone who burns dinner from a real grill master is simply...

Remember my Word of the Year post from January? I figured that since we are halfway through 2017, I should check in with how this word is manifesting in my life. In most areas, I feel on top of things and that I am making choices that align with my values and goals. With the blog,  I’ve been writing from my heart each day instead of planning more evergreen posts in advance. I’ve also added in some new tools that are helping me stay focused on the business side. With my relationships, I am focusing on kindness, compassion, quality time, and fun. With my spending, I have been smart and am saving more than ever. ( YNAB is to thank!) With my  home, systems are in place that are keeping the clutter down and the household running smoothly. No crazy runs to Target so far! (Well, maybe one ) But with my health ? I have been more reactionary than intentional. I can’t say I have been living my healthiest life. I’ve been eating whatever calls to me in the fridge inste...

It’s Friday, everyone! And that means another Primal Blueprint Real Life Story from a Mark’s Daily Apple reader. If you have your own success story and would like to share it with me and the Mark’s Daily Apple community please contact me here . I’ll continue to publish these each Friday as long as they keep coming in. Thank you for reading! From the time I was fourteen, I remember being fascinated by the impact food seems to have on a person’s health. I think it started when my best friend and I were watching a news program while we waited for our favorite show to start, and we heard the newest research suggesting that we should limit certain foods in our diet. My friend and I wondered if we could live without pepperoni pizza, and it became a challenge. I often find myself wondering if she ever began eating red meat again. As I went through the early years of college, I followed the low-fat/high-carb life of the time, and I exercised aerobically. I cannot fathom how much cereal...

I’d like to take a moment to take a closer look at cheese. Many people are confused by cheese and how it fits into a clean eating meal plan. While there is processing that goes into making cheese,… Read more → from The Gracious Pantry http://ift.tt/2tju6WG

Hi, guys! Happy Monday! I hope you had a lovely weekend! Ok, so this recipe has been on serious REPEAT in our house lately. Holy yum! Introducing:  Carrot Chicken Ramen Noodles !   Yep, that’s right. This recipe is a healthy twist on traditional packaged Ramen noodles that we all know and love. I don’t know about you, but the chicken flavor was, for sure, a childhood favorite. But, of course, this recipe is a much healthier version and made with carrot noodles and much less scary seasoning ingredients. And, bonus, this recipe is super EASY to make. It only requires two main ingredients (carrot noodles and chicken breast) + a homemade seasoning. It couldn’t be more simple to make and, my goodness, it’s delicious! Be sure to add it to your must-make recipe list! Ingredients : 12 ounces carrot noodles (I used a package of frozen carrot spirals from Trader Joe’s) 4 ounces cooked chicken breast (I used leftover crockpot shredded chicken) 2 tablespoons...
