Easy Fresh Herb Tomato Sauce – Vegan + Oil-Free

Easy Fresh Herb Tomato Sauce - Vegan + Oil-Free

Man, oh man, do I love an easy recipe. I cook a lot with adding “a little bit of this.. a touch of this.. oh a pinch of this sounds good…”, so all my spices are always going to be measured in “taste test method”. Start at 1/2 tablespoon of each + taste as you go! I taped my lazy Tuesday morning while creating this sauce if you wanted to follow along in a vlog sort of way! If so, just click the video below. If you make this easy fresh herb tomato sauce, let me know what you think! As always, any questions, shoot me a message down below. Happy cooking! This simple tomato sauce recipe couldn't be any easier! Using only 2 staple ingredients, tons of spices, and whatever extra veggies you…

I’ve Been Intermittent Fasting for 9 Months – Here’s how it’s going

I INTERMITTENT FASTED FOR 8 MONTHS – HERE’S HOW IT WENT

Hey there! I’m not an expert here, but I am a huge advocate of listening to your body and finding what is best & works for you! This method has personally worked wonders for my physical health (as of mid October 2018, I’ve lost 32 lbs) and my mental health + clarity have never been better. I highly suggest playing around with foods and fasting to see what makes you feel and function at your very best! xx, Melissa March 2017 - July 2018 Truthfully, I started to practice intermittent fasting before I even knew it was a thing. DJ had done intermittent fasting with some workout program he was focusing on a year or so prior, but besides me knowing the name of what he was doing, I did little-to-no research on the…

My Weekly Meal Prep Menu : Aug 14-18 (vegetarian & 21 Day Fix approved)

"Vegetarian-21-day-fix-recipes"

Hey, friends! Welcome to my weekly meal prep! Each week, to make sure I'm staying on top of my health and budget goals, I will create a meal plan and then spend a few hours on Sundays prepping for the days to come. Meal prepping is amazing; it saves me so much time and money. I prep enough food for Monday breakfast to Friday midday (post-workout). I leave my Friday nights & weekends free but keep staples in my house, such as eggs and extra veggies, so I can make quick meals when needed. [Want more inspiration? Check out my week ONE and week TWO  and week THREE menus!] I eat 5-6 small meals each day, roughly every 3-4 hours. This way, I never feel overly full or hungry; I'm content and have consistent energy. By eating…

10 Vegetarian 21 Day Fix Dinner Recipes

Vegetarian 21 Day Fix Dinner Recipes

                With all the success my post for 50 Vegetarian 21 Day Fix Recipes had (seriously, it's my most viewed + popular post to date!) I figured the demand was higher than I thought when it came to veggie friendly 21 day fix approved recipes. Don't get me wrong, I totally get it. The struggle is kind of real for a vegetarian finding fun and easy Fix approved recipes that still follow your dietary lifestyle. After playing around of Pinterest for quite some time (literally months, you guys….) I came to the conclusion that I cannot be the ONLY vegetarian 21 Day Fixer out there (I had a total Are you there God? It’s me, Margret moment for a second). So, to make my life easier (and for…
