Or maybe you already are right now {no judgements here}. EITHER way, I’m here to help you out girl. I know summer is winding down and those short shorts may be extra snug these days but don’t fret.

All hail the mighty Kale. This cabbage related leafy green is packing some major heat in the nutrient department. Per calorie, it is one of the most nutrient dense foods out there. It is high in vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin K, magnesium AND fibre. It is a great anti-oxidant as well, which is important for all you babes keeping up with your workouts as exercise causes an oxidative effect in your body. Kale ALSO increases satiety, making you feel fuller, quicker {umm awesome…}. It has tons of cancer fighting, organ protecting, detoxifying, immune system supporting properties. So bring on the kale!! Today’s recipe is a quick and easy salad that I LOVE to throw together. Kale can be tough and bitter making people second guess it in the […].
Okay girls. Stop what you’re doing right now. This is major. Maj. Or. Coconut oil. I swear by this stuff. Literally I use it on everything. Sunburns, hair mask, face mask, night time face lotion, makeup remover, eye cream, lip chap, and lastly… my food. There is something seriously magical about coconut oil and I am only upset that it took me 23 years to figure it out. My skin cleared up, my eyelashes thickened, my hair became healthier and I smelled like heaven. Coconut oil has antioxidant vitamin E, which is very protective for the skin. Remember to use ORGANIC coconut oil when using it on your skin to reduce absorption of evil toxins and pesticides. Coconut oil has a ton of added health benefits. […].
Good morning lovelies!!! All my Alberta hunnies already know, but the past week was Calgary Stampede. Well I was lucky enough to have a few of my besties come down for the shenanigans. Let’s just say we… survived. BUT I strongly believe we may not have made it without these Paleo Chocolate Cookies. In anticipation of the girlies arrival, I baked these cookies, like all great hostesses should. {Take notes}. Just kidding. But seriously. Mornings after would not have been so easy without these delicious morsels. They are so soft, so chewy, so chocolatey yet NO dairy, NO wheat and NO added sugar…… {pause for gasps}………. that’s right ladies. This recipe contains no butter, flour or sugar. Like helloooooo. I HAD TO try them out for girls weekend […].
