It’s back to school season and back to schedules. During summer schedules, having dinner time at a specific hour isn’t as important. Kids are busy and tend to eat when it’s convenient.

Watermelon and Feta… Cake
Celebrate a birthday – or any special occasion – with a different kind of cake. Not everyone loves birthday cake. Is that blasphemous?

Fruity No Sugar Added Pre-Fast Sports Drink
Ok, so this isn’t exactly a sports drink…then you’d have all the sugars in there. It’s pretty much just a ‘doctored up’ cup of coconut water. But I couldn’t put that in the title in case you’re like me and have an aversion to plain coconut water. Now hear me out, what if I told…
Beet and Chickpea Salad
Just toss it all together (the fresh dill and parsley are a must!) and you have an amazing, nourishing, and filling salad that’s refreshingly different. I do like randomly trying new things–but often, it’s just one and done. The experiments are just to enjoy for the moment, but rarely on repeat (although when they are…
