You Scream, I Scream, We All Scream For Ice Cream!
Remember how I told you at the beginning of the week that I’d ordered an ice cream machine? Well, Sears called me on Thursday to tell me it had been delayed a week. Wait a minute, why did I order this online when there’s a Sears on my way home? I could pick it up…
Chocolate Hemp Runners Repair Bars
30 days ago I realized that having one huge fitness goal was dragging me down mentally and discouraging me from keeping up with my training. So, I opted for setting smaller goals so I could be encouraged by my ongoing progress. Let’s see how I did… Run for a consecutive 15 minutes without pain in…
Light Quinoa and Avocado Tabbouleh Verrines
As a teenager and young adult I was anything but comfortable with myself. I’d cry at the thought of being left alone and avoided as many silent moments as possible. I guess I was never taught how to appreciate my own personal value and how to build a relationship with me. After years of fear,…
Sweet Strawberry Ice Cream + Chocolate Sauce
I’m happy to report that I completed everything on my to do list, except for the photography stroll I had planned for the afternoon. I have a good excuse though. The minute I walked outside with camera in hand, it started snowing. Snow + Kevin’s DSLR = Leanne in a lot of trouble if something…
Yeast Bustin’ Carob Clusters
I’m happy to report I had Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats yesterday for breakfast and my tummy was as happy as could be. It was definitely the caprylic acid supplement that did me in on Saturday. In other news, I have today off and couldn’t be more excited about it. My plan today: Spin class +…
Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats + BBQ Kale Chips
Yesterday was so much fun! I was a bit discouraged at first: what foods can I make that will taste great, are high in coconut, 0 sugar, and high in protein? The best way I’ve found to approach changes to my diet is with an open [and creative] mind. Reminding myself a couple of times…
5 minute Strawberry Quinoa Flake Bake
This week has been crazy busy with training, consults, a flood of new work at the office, and a bunch of appointments with my coach, doctor, and Chiropractor. A busy week means literally no extra time to spend in the kitchen making fancy lunches. I had just 15 minutes a night to dedicate to packing…
Hidden Gem “Butter” Cookies
I’ve been having crazy dreams lately, and no, not about food… although this next recipe did come to me in a daydream! I’ve been waking up with a peaceful mind, clear head, and focused intentions. What have I been dreaming about you ask? Yoga. I haven’t visited my mat since November, but after a couple…
Vegan Creamy Honey Dijon Salad + Omega Croutons
Since starting my cleanse I’ve become obsessed with salads. Thankfully, it’s a great obsession to have coming from a girl that really could use more veg in her life. Problem is I get bored with salad dressings very quickly so I’m always trying to switch things up to keep it exciting. Creamy honey dijon, creamy…
5 minute Apple Quinoa Flake Bake + Cocoalmond Mania Butter
I’m 10 days into my cleanse and things are going well! To recap, my goals were: Increase water from 3 liters to 4 liters/day. CHECK Lemon water in the morning. CHECK 1000ml Ginger water in the afternoon. CHECK – I added grapefruit to yesterday’s batch. Add parsley to my breakfast shakes. 1/2 CHECK – I…
