Creamy Crunchy Healthy Chicken Salad…or Sandwich, you decide! This healthy chicken salad is a recipe revamp I’ve been wanting to do for ages. I originally posted this salad and titled it my “Skinny Chicken Waldorf Salad” recipe back in 2012 when calling recipes “skinny” was appealing and somewhat glorified. Well, thank God that’s over and…
The Ultimate Fall Salad with Maple Pumpkin Chia Dressing
I don’t often get “writer’s block”. Usually I sit down to write my posts and things just flow naturally. Sure there’s the odd day where I have to rewrite the first couple of sentences a few times to get the rhythm going, but in general writing posts feels pretty easy-peasy. The one exception to this is…
3 Healthy Mason Jar Meals (Perfect for Camping!)
This past week has been fantastic. We spent a few fun days camping in the rocky mountains with my family (and survived tenting with Hemsley, phew!), then we made our way to beautiful British Columbia for some rest and relaxation at the Copper Point Resort. I decided to take the last half of this past…
Summer Grilled Corn Salad with Avocado, Cilantro and Lime
Today is officially Father’s Day which means June is already half over…this month is flying by! I hope you have had the chance to get outside, go for sunshine-filled walks, morning or evening runs, maybe a bike ride here and there, or even enjoy the beach or lake if there is one nearby. Above all,…
Healthy Caesar Salad with Chicken // Gluten Free & Dairy Free
I love making all kinds of salads in the summer months. Salads that are bursting with flavour and filled with a variety of fresh ingredients. Back in my waitressing days I worked at a restaurant that had an amazing caesar salad that I enjoyed often. I still crave that salad a lot but can’t have…
NITK “Bounce-Back” Vitality Bowl
Wow, here we are, halfway through January already! I finally feel like I’m back in my groove as I was out of commission at New Years because of that nasty cold and flu bug that was going around. As much as I was hoping to start the New Year off with a bang, I had…
3 Fast & Healthy On-The-Go Lunch Recipes For Fall
*THIS BLOG POST IS IN COLLABORATION WITH IHERB* Before I had Hemsley people told me all the time how life would be so different with a baby. While I unfortunately heard my fair share of horror stories I was also told many positive ones and assured that having a child would be one of the…
Healthy Niçoise Salad Jars with Roasted Garlic Lemon Dressing
Salad jars have been all the rage for the last couple of years and it makes complete sense. They are portable, pretty, and easy to make. What’s not to love? Last summer I created these Veggie-Loaded Summer Potato Salad Jars and they were well loved, both by readers and of course, by myself and the hubby….
Steak & ‘Blues’ Salad Boats with Dilly Avocado Ranch Dressing
You know how there’s just some foods you will not, can not, never, won’t, nuh uh, no-thank you, eat? Well, one of those foods for me is blue cheese. It’s not because I have an allergy to dairy and all cheese makes me sick. It’s because it’s literally the grossest food to me ever. I mean,…
Ahi Tuna Winter Salad with Creamy Balsamic Dressing (DF, GF)
Did you know that it was “Blue Monday” on the 16th? I guess the third Monday of January is supposed to be the most depressing day of the year. The holidays are over, credit card bills are rolling in post-Christmas, and the weather is well, generally dreary if you live in a winter climate. I…
