Looking for a change after a summer of guacamole? How about kicking it up a notch in the nutrition department? With an abundance of spinach at the farmers market I wanted to break out one of my favorite recipes.

Mussels are one of those things that seem a lot harder to prepare then they actually are. The truth is they are super simple to make, because all you do is steam them, its really all about the sauce you steam them in!

As a woman I know I can suffer from bloating whether it be diet or hormone related no one wants to be dealing with extra bloat during this season.

This summer favorite has been a hit for lunches and fancy dinner parties, and it is also an insanely healthy snack, as the nutritional benefits of peas are endless. Filled with anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties, these little guys pack a big punch when it comes to your health. Peas are good for your eyes, high in fiber and essential vitamins and nutrients, support digestive health and are energizing to boot.

After the success of the Banana Chia Pudding I wanted to share another delicious recipe to give your breakfasts a little variety. This recipe I created for the readers over at Shes in the Glow and they loved it! I have a feeling you will too.

I have learned many life lessons over the last 6 years since leaving my old career behind. I understand what is it like to be overworked and underpaid, I know what it is like to take a leap of faith into the unknown, I know what it is like to struggle with addiction, to be in destructive relationships, to not feel good enough, to feel unworthy of love and so much more.

This dressing is so flavorful and lucky for you the recipe makes extra for you to keep on hand. Try it over a piece of salmon or chicken, or layered into a sandwich or grilled vegetable wrap. Did I mention this salad is loaded with vitamins, minerals, and fiber making it not only a tasty, but a healthy choice too!

As you already know I like to create simple quick dishes with just a few ingredients that one may have on hand. Today's soup is no different; I always have miso in my fridge, if you don't get some it is great to have around for soups, sauces and marinades not to mention it has some major health benefits.
