    April 28, 2021

    If you are like me, you are looking for easy ways to get more healthy and protein is a key component in your plan. Now, there are multiple areas of your lifestyle that you can focus on to achieve this, but one of the most important (that will likely have the biggest and most noticeable impact) is your diet. Throughout lockdown, many of us have started eating unhealthier foods on a day to day basis.

    Pasta Can Be Healthy

    November 2, 2016

    DAY 6 of my 100 Days of Real Food Challenge and my #1 issue is PASTA!  I crave it constantly.

    Products I Love: Ancient Harvest

    April 20, 2016

    My husband and I love to eat pasta at least one night a week.  I am always searching for more healthy pasta options.  Recently, while eating lunch at  THE SWAMP RABBIT CAFE,  I stumbled upon Ancient Harvest.  After preparing it for dinner, we are searching for all their products.
