Farmers Markets: Save money on Organic Local food

If you are trying to go all natural and get rid of all the toxic chemicals in your life then you NEED  to be going to a farmers market. To keep Organic veggies from California or other parts of the U.S fresh before they reach you, most farmers coat cucumbers, apples and oranges in a wax/honey based coating so that they stay fresh for longer. Store-bought organic veggies, have sometimes travelled…

  Hey guys! I am going to do a video soon but since my skincare routine was highly requested I thought I would do a quick blog post about it. So I went from having severe acne covering my jawline and cheeks to a few pimples here and there (usually from not washing my phone or touching my face), but it took over 2 years to finally figure out what was going on. You have to give up the chemical…

Chik’n Patties

I’ve been having crazy protein cravings lately, so naturally I listened to my body and added in more protein and some Seitan. I love Seitan it’s delicious and hearty and keeps me full for hours. It has an insane amount of protein and no cholesterol. Instead of eating potatoes and veggies, I add in a piece of Seitan or beans. Most are relatively lower in fat, but they still have hydrogenated oils…

Easy Lentil Taco Meat

Hey guys! I’ve been loving super simple legume recipes lately. They have been keeping me full and keeping my recovery after working out 10x better. This is one of those I just got home from the gym and I need to eat as quickly as I can recipes. It takes 40 minutes to cook but it’s well worth it. I like to eat this taco meat on top of baked potatoes, on salads, in corn tortillas whatever. Just for…

My protein intake has been low since going Vegan. I can feel it in my muscles and joints, especially after a workout. I searched high and low on the internet for more ways to incorporate protein in my diet as a Vegan, without upping my carb intake as well. Beans √ Peas √ Broccoli √ Quinoa √, Everything check! What was I missing? short of adding a gross protein powder to my smoothies.  (Sorry…

Hello new comers, followers and friends. Today I am going to be sharing a super simple recipe that is one of my favorites! I used to do these wraps with meat included, now I just leave it out, bulk it up with veggies and add some gut loving sauerkraut for extra goodness. My favorite part of this recipe isn’t even the cooked bean/veggie mix its the guacamole <3 anyone else LOVE avocado?? I can’t…

Hello followers! It’s been a while… Unfortunately I haven’t found the time to post recipes due to my busy schedule. I’ve been focusing on working out, eating clean and spending time with my loved ones instead of constantly being behind a computer/phone screen. In my time away from my blog I have had a chance to visit farmers markets and learn a ton of easy and delicious ways to include more…

I got the most AMAZING New Mexico chilis from the farmers market Saturday, that are pecan smoked and organic. I was grabbing my usual veggies when the woman told me that I had to smell the new chilis they have. She opened the bag and I was hooked. The smell was indescribable! If you don’t have access to pecan smoked new mexico chilis no worries. Any type of dried (not too spicy) chili works. I…

Store-bought granola is just not affordable. When you can make it at home for less than $5 why buy a bag for $7.99? I’ll take my low fat, honey free granola any day. (super hard to find one without honey) The best part of this recipe, is that you can easily customize it to fit your tastebuds. You want chocolate granola? Add in some raw cacao powder or carob powder. You fancy yourself a vanilla…

Hey guys! It took me soooo long to post this since this recipe also comes with a video! I haven’t done a video in so long, but I just got a MacBook Pro so now I can finally test out videos on my Canon. These tacos were insanely good. I have had them for the past week as a taco salad, lettuce wrap and as a bowl. Let me just say that cashew sour cream is amazing… Just like eating healthy fats,…

What the heck is a Microvore? Well I will use Earthling Nutrition‘s exact words for this one. Micro means “small”, and Vore mean “to devour”: a “Microvore” describes someone who makes the effort to obtain nutritional materials for their body’s microscopic needs. The Microvore diet teaches you how to eat for the smallest part of you, to make big health changes! ~Microvore Success Blueprint, Savy…

Me encanta los frijoles <3 These beans are rich, filling and just the right amount of spicy. The traditional recipe for Cowboy Charro Beans includes pinto beans. I have nothing against pinto beans, but I’ve grown fond of the taste of Black beans over the years. If you find that beans give you digestive issues, I would switch out the black beans for pinto beans, because they are softer and easier…

This amazing Mexican woman , who brings me delicious food and fruit, brought Chili Rellenos this week… OMG they smelled delicious and they were baked and not fried, and filled with cheese and beans…so I couldn’t have any. Poblano Peppers just happened to be on sale at Trader Joe’s, it was fate. Time to Veganize it. My First thought was using fake “meat”, but no, that’s unhealthy and unoriginal.…
