I’ve partnered with Wonderful Halos to bring you this blog post. Right now, the brand is hosting a “Good Choice Challenge” to encourage consumers to make good snacking choices by choosing Wonderful Halos over other traditional unhealthy snacks in order to lead a healthier lifestyle. With the holidays here, Wonderful Halos definitely make a delicious (and easy) option!  As always, thank you for your support!  We have quite the picky eater on our hands with Quinn. Sure, it’s his age (he’s 3.5 years old), but it has been a serious struggle for our family. As a baby, Quinn used to eat just about everything that we put in front of him. But, just after his first birthday, things went down hill. Meal time is almost always a challenge, and I can’t remember the last time he ate a vegetable (unless it was stealthily added into a smoothie). As you might remember, Quinn participated in Massachusetts Early Intervention Program starting at 22 months for a full year. During this ti...

My favorite kinds of recipes are those where versatility shines. I love it when you can mix and match ingredients, customize it to your liking (because I always do!), or serve it as a light lunch or dinner side. This recipe fits those criteria. I found myself with a whole pumpkin and some extra farro that a friend gave me, and I put this together for an easy dinner. Rotisserie chicken completed the meal! I loved the mix of flavors from the salty feta, sweet roasted pumpkin (sweet potato or butternut would work great too!), chewy farro, and bright basil. Cutting open a whole pumpkin is never fun, but if you microwave it a bit it sure is easier. I do my best to cut it in half, and then place the cut sides down on a plate with a little water and microwave it until it’s tender enough to easily cut into chunks. MY OTHER RECIPES The farro cooks up easily on the stove top (or in a rice cooker.) You could also use brown rice or wheatberries. Everything else just gets tossed toge...

Hi, guys! Happy Hump Day! So, I heard a rumor that you like to see what I eat in a day. And, truthfully, I also love to see what other people eat because it always gives me great ideas for my own food choices. And since macros are SO HOT right now, I wanted to share the macro breakdown of each of my meals and snacks. I don’t have any set number goals for them, but I try my best to make sure each is somewhat balanced between protein, carbs, and fat. I find those to be the most satisfying. This particular day was this past Monday, so you’ll see lots of Thanksgiving leftovers and some extra chocolate because my blog was attacked by malware for the second time in one week. I was feeling stressed and frustrated, so I decided to, well, eat my feelings. I mean, hey, some days chocolate (and wine) are what get me though the day! Post-Workout : Iced coffee with collagen , Maple Water , and half & half Breakfast : Banana Protein Pudding (recipe below) Lunch : Crockpot Turkey Chili ( D...

^^Reference to the Little Big Town “Pontoon” lyrics! Have you ever heard of flotation for wellness? We have a center here in Cville called Aquafloat  that offers floating, massages, and an infrared sauna. I’ve been wanting to try floating out for a while, and Thomas got me a combo massage + float gift certificate for my birthday. The float “pods” are filled with 12 inches of water heated to around 93.5 degrees – skin temperature. Dissolved into the water are 850 pounds of Epsom salts. Back in my public relations days, I used to work with the Epsom Salt Council, so I can tell you there are  hundreds of benefits to soaking in Epsom salts! There are so many dissolved salts in this water that you are completely buoyant and float on top of the water. You can close the lid to the pod, turn off the light, and have a totally sensory-free experience that leads to complete relaxation. You don’t  have to close the lid or turn out the light, but it’s recommended. {The water is...

I know this clean eating giblet gravy recipe should have technically been posted before Thanksgiving, but with hosting Thanksgiving at my house this year, things just got away from me. So I figured… Read more → from The Gracious Pantry http://ift.tt/2naOCpP
