When I did my first Whole 30 back in April 2014, I was shocked at all the crap that sneaks its way into our food. Reading labels became an obsessive habit and it is one I carry to this day. I’ve said this many times before but will say it again - small changes over time can have a profound impact on our health.

Quick and easy recipes are a mom’s best friend. I love to cook and could spend all day in the kitchen but a) I don’t have time to do that and b) I hate doing dishes. This week I have decided to round up 10 of my favorite recipes in hopes that it takes some pressure off of you around meal time.

I recently shared on Instagram how our grocery budget seems to be the hardest thing for me to get a handle on. I just can’t bring myself to sacrifice quality to save some money. Thankfully, Scoop Wholefoods and their bulk bins have helped me keep the quality and save money. You just have to be smart on what you’re getting!

If clean eating has taught me anything it’s that going outside of your comfort zone and pushing yourself to do something you never thought possible is very empowering.

I started my low-toxin, natural lifestyle while living in New York City where access to clean products was simple. I could pop into a Whole Foods or place an Amazon Prime order and have anything I needed instantly.
