Currently Craving The Perfect On-The-Go Snack I am always on the hunt for new snacks that are healthy, satisfying, and delicious, and these Broad Bean Crisps from Enlightened are the total package! When it comes to snacking I look for 4 things: Are there at least 3 grams of protein? Are there at least 3 grams of fiber? Is the...
Why I crave bananas and you should too! Bananas seem to get a bad rap for being high in calories, sugars, and carbohydrates, but really they are one of the best foods for you. Bananas are loaded in magnesium, vitamin C, vitamin B6, and of course, potassium, making this fruit a serious health booster. Their potassium and magnesium combination can:...
Crave-worthy snack alert I cannot get enough of these crunchy chickpeas. I make them as part of my Sunday night meal prep, and am able to add them to my salads during the week, bring them to the office to snack on solo, or use them as a protein topper to my soups and stir fry. Just 1/2 cup of...
The prettiest health accessory You have heard me say it before, but I’ll say it again (and again, and again), proper hydration is a necessity for staying healthy and feeling good, just one of the many reasons I am currently craving bkr bottles. Having a water bottle on you at all times is the easiest way to make sure your hydration game...
All the gifts I love to give. With the holidays only 2 weeks away, I wanted to share my favorite foodie finds and wellness-focused gifts that I can’t wait to give this holiday season. I hope you love these gifts as much as I do and I would love to hear what else you’re giving your loved ones! Home Goodies: A big...
Food processors, need not apply. I am currently craving (big time!) Boulder Canyon Riced Vegetables. Grain-free, vegetable rice is having a total moment right now, and I am loving it! But let’s be honest, breaking out that food processor-and cleaning it- can be a bit daunting and exhausting at times. Which is why I was so excited to discover these frozen, pre-riced...
Halloween ready! It is the time of year where candy is everywhere and in the spirit of Halloween, I am currently craving UnReal Candy. It is the ultimate in better-for-you-candy options, giving you and your kids a lot more treat with less trick. But, WTF is better-for-you-candy?? UnReal uses real food ingredients, with NO artificial flavors, dyes, preservatives, hydrogenated oils...
The pumpkin spice snack you need immediately! It is the season of pumpkin flavored everything and I totally love it. But finding an item that isn’t high in sugar is tricky. That is why I am currently craving this Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter from Buff Bake. It is packed with protein at 11 grams per serving, while only having 5...
I came across this adorable gelato shop while wondering around the West Village last weekend, but I soon realized it was no ordinary soft-serve ice cream and left me currently craving Victory Garden. Instead of using cow’s milk, this gelato is made with goat’s milk and after some very tasty sampling, I fell in love! You may be thinking, “goat’s milk?!?” but...
As today is National Popcorn Day, I want to highlight one of my favorite brands: Quinn Popcorn. Started by Quinn’s mom and dad in an effort to clean up their son’s snacks, they created this deliciously genius “farm-to-bag” company. With a variety of both microwave popcorn and pre-popped, Quinn uses simple, real ingredients to make this long-standing staple clean and fun. From the...
