As I’ve gotten older, I look more forward to fall. I love everything about it. Cool, crisp air, football, beautiful trees, good-smelling candles, the anticipation of the holidays, comfort food and pumpkins. And I’m talking about more than a pumpkin spice latte. More like pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin cobbler, pumpkin pie. My mouth is watering just thinking about it all! I LOVE baking with pumpkin. So, I’ll most likely be posting more pumpkin recipes in the coming…

Hangry. I’m sure you’ve heard of this term before. But if not, it’s a state of anger caused by hunger. Guilty. As. Charged. So, to avoid causing too much riff among my friends, family and coworkers, I have started packing healthy snacks everywhere I go. I always have something in my purse. And I’m going to tell you why you should, too. Having emergency healthy snacks with you puts you in control of what foods you eat on the go….

Easy Energy Balls Recipe – Multiple Variations

Comments 1 comment

One of my favorite go to snacks are protein bars but these can get pricey and questionable when bought packaged in the store. Protein bars often have added sweeteners and hard-to-pronounce ingredients. I’ll admit, I still do buy them for convenience from time to time but I definitely prefer to make my own healthier protein treats, especially since knowing how simple and easy they really are. These protein balls are one of my all time favorite healthy snacks. Don’t over-complicate…
