5 Ingredient Bourbon Balls

Image
This easy 5 ingredient bourbon balls recipe is a family favorite and makes a great addition to any holiday cookie swap or party dessert spread! Bourbon balls are my all-time favorite Christmas cookie. When we were young, my parents used to throw a huge Christmas party every year. The house was packed with over 100 people, and my mom spent the whole week before getting ready for the party. She made cheese straws, sherry cheese dip, and these bourbon balls, among lots of other appetizers and desserts. Ironically, every year I would eat a bourbon ball and think “this is disgusting !!” (This is probably how a 10 year old child should describe the taste of strong bourbon flavor!) But as I tasted one year after year, I grew to love bourbon balls – and bourbon! Bourbon is actually our family drink. My grandmother loved an Old Fashioned, and my grandfather always ordered a Manhattan. So you might say that the taste of bourbon balls reminds me of my childhood in the absolute best way. Tha...

Macro Coaching: What Results Can You REALLY Expect?

Image
If you’re looking for a quick fix or diet, I’m not your girl. In my 1:1 nutrition coaching, we focus on creating sustainable habits and long-term RESULTS. You won’t cut out entire food groups, and I won’t force you to eat foods you don’t like. Instead, I will educate, motivate, and keep you accountable as you learn to implement macros as a tool to find balance and moderation in your diet while also achieving your personal goals. With me by your side, supporting all along the way, you are going to learn and develop sustainable eating habits – ones that you can utilize long after our coaching relationship ends. At the end of our time together, YOU will be in the driver’s seat with regard to your health. If you’re wondering what it’s like to work with me as a coach, here are some example conversations I have with clients. They’ll give you some insight into my coaching “style.” Ready to work together in January? You can sign up right here . Registratio...
