Recipes

Eating is quite possibly one of my greatest pleasures. I particularly love eating foods that are high in nutrients and loaded with flavor; because, obviously, those are the best ones for your your body. That being said, I have an appetite for practically anything; from calorie rich desserts to vegan dishes. In my opinion, the best kinds of desserts are the ones with healthy additions. That way I feel a little less guilty about eating them!

I don't think of myself as a dieter, but I have definitely adopted a healthier lifestyle over the years. I tend to eat pretty clean, not only for my figure but also for my skin and overall well-being. Eating foods that complement my exercise routine, rather than take away from it, is a no-brainier. As we age, diet plays such a crucial role in our appearance. I am a firm believer that you are what you eat, so it's important to me that my household eat organic foods, free from dyes and yucky additives. That being said, I also like to have fun and indulge once in awhile, so I like to live by what I call the 80/20 rule. Meaning 80% of the time I eat nutritious foods, and 20% of the time I allow myself to splurge on junk food.

Like most people, I always seem to have a To-Do list jam-packed full of things that I have a hard time completing. For that reason, it's important to me that recipes are fairly simple and have as few ingredients and steps as possible. I need things to be simple and practical if I'm going to incorporate them as regulars on my food-planning menu. I will be posting some of my favorite recipes here. I would love any feedback if you decide to try them for yourself. I would also love to hear from you if you have a similar recipe. I'm always looking for ways to fine-tune and improve all things in my life, and food is certainly no exception! Thanks for stopping by and reading! Happy Cooking!
