The official first day of fall is almost here and I am ready for all the fall recipes to go down in my kitchen. Pumpkin bread always seems like a good place to start when it comes to fall baking and I realized that I had never shared my go-to recipe that is healthy and delicious. (That obviously has to change right?) Pumpkin bread is one of those things that I look forward to every year and there is nothing better than the smell of warm spices baking in your oven! Aside from the perks of having your house smell like your favorite fall candle, but way better, I also like making my own pumpkin bread at home because I get to make a healthier version of my favorite fall bread. My healthy spiced pumpkin bread is a must make this season and you will love how simple the recipe is too!
My kiddo happens to be a donut lover. It’s the one thing he can’t resist and asks for whenever we are out and about and they are available. Of course the occasional donut indulgence is fine, but when you can make your own at home and the ingredients are all good ones, you don’t have to feel bad about serving them up to your kids any day of the week! With the end of summer approaching at a rapid pace, I find that everyone I know has a ton of zucchini in their fridge and I know I am always looking for recipes to use up my zucchini in new ways! My healthier chocolate zucchini donuts are perfect for a healthy and fun breakfast and they happen to be loaded with all the good stuff!
We are meatball obsessed in my house and I am a firm believer that meatballs don’t have to be just for Italian cuisine! I love taking some of my favorite flavors, like chicken shawarma, and turning them into a meatball! I love that meatballs can be prepped in advance, are kid-friendly, and make for an easy dinner any night of the week! Greek flavors in general are some of my favorite and I created a bowl that combines all of my favorites into one dish that makes for the best weeknight dinner! My chicken shawarma meatball bowls are full of flavor and easy to whip up making this recipe ideal for a healthy family friendly dinner!
With the holidays in full swing it can sometimes feel impossible to keep up with a healthy lifestyle due to the constant influx of treats that co-workers, family, and the internet keeps throwing your way! This is the time of year I find most people throw in the towel and say I’ll just start fresh in January because they find it too overwhelming to stay the path! That’s why I like to prep easy and healthy lunches at the beginning of the week so that I can be sure I have something nutritious and satisfying to help me resist the holiday temptations throughout the day! My easy single serving veggie ramen bowls are going to be your new favorite healthy make ahead lunch for any day of the week!

A healthy lifestyle is something I strive to have for myself and for my family. Along with staying active, I believe the main aspect of staying healthy starts with your diet! That's why making healthy swaps like MaraNatha Almond Butters perfect for healthy snacking and recipe additions to any meal makes staying on track even easier. I love that I can shop at my local Walmart and get all of the ingredients that I need to create a delicious and healthy meal that my whole family will love! My almond butter Asian chicken and veggie soba noodle salad is the perfect lunch to meal prep and enjoy all week long!
My weekly routine has been out of whack the past couple of weeks. My gym days have been off, my diet has been decent but not great, and the reality is...that's just life sometimes. This week is the first week in a while that I feel like will be back to normal "ish" again and one thing that is going to help me stay on track is meal prepping my lunches! This means that I won't find myself eating junk and I will have a nutritious meal ready to go whenever I get hungry! My healthy curried chickpea salad is just the kind of recipe that is perfect to meal prep at the beginning of the week!
