There are people that thrive on routine and people that thrive on newness. I’m the latter. I never eat the same thing 2 days in a row. I am bored to tears if I’m home too often. I can’t do the same workouts over and over, and I am most alive when I’m adventuring in new places, trying new things. . . . I used to think there was something wrong with me. Why can’t I stick to a diet? Why can’t I stick to a workout regime? . . Then I started to slowly and gently with grace and kindness accept that I am unique. You are too. . . I don’t fit into the mold that diet culture says I should fit into. I’ve made my own mold. I eat differently every day, but I eat well. I move my body differently every day, imperfectly, not always a formal workout, but I move. . . And most importantly I try to fill my live with joy, new adventures, experiences that really fill me up. . . . I hope your weekend is full of new adventures or luscious sameness. Whatever fills you up and makes you feel alive. 💗💗 . . . . . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #radicalselfcare #selflove #selfloveclub #positivevibes #positivevibesonly #intuition #intentionalliving #intuitiveliving #liveinspired #wellnessblogger #wellpreneur #mindbodysoul #mindbodygram #mindbodyspirit #raiseyourvibrations #holisticliving #greenlifestyle #healthyhappylife #wellnessjourney #hippielifestyle #nourishyourself #organiclifestyle #justbreathe #lookwithin #hippievibes #inspirationdaily #functionalnutritionist #nycnutrition #NYCnutritionist #travelgram
#Ad -- Is there a moment better than when you open a perfectly ripe avocado? Can we bottle that feeling and carry it around with us always? 🥑🥰 I've teamed up with @MissionAvocados this summer to bring you all things avocado! I have new healthy avocado recipes coming your way, and avocado tips so you can have that "THIS AVOCADO IS PERFECT!" moment over and over and over again! . . These are THICK AND BUMPY avocados. You will find them in your grocery stores from May thru September. . . Tips to know when a THICK AND BUMPY avocado is ripe? 🥑 Color is not an indicator of ripeness. Avocados can still be green and ripe (the avocados in this picture had various shades of green on the outside but were all ripe!)) 🥑Gently press the narrow top of the avocado to feel for softness (swipe right to see the perfect avocado test spot) 🥑Perform the gentle press test daily, once the avocado yields to gentle pressure it is ripe and ready to eat! Woop! Woop! . . . There are 2 stages of avocado perfection: 1) Firm ripe - The avocado yields to gentle pressure and is perfectly suited for slices, salads, bowls, and that perfect avocado gram picture 📷 2) Ripe - The avocado yields very easily to gentle pressure (and is more uniformly ripe all around). This is your guacamole avocado! Or perfect for avocado mash, smoothies, sauces, etc. . . . What's your favorite way to use avocados? #KnowYourAvocado . . . #Avocado # #thenewhealthy #feedfeed #buzzfeedfood #food52 #nytfood #bonappetit #huffposttaste #foodgawker #thrivemags #eatingwelleats #honestcooking #eatwellbewell #functionalnutritio #wellnesswarrior #wellnessblogger #nourishing #nourished #nycnutritionist #abraskitchen #mostlyplants #realfood #iamwellandgood #eatgoodfeelgood #yumminess #feedyourglow #healthycuisines
One of the funny things about the work that I do is that the majority of the recipes I make I don’t really get to share with friends or family. It’s just me and Jordan, and lots of good food. Recipe testing happens in the margins of the week. Not when other people are around. . . . When I get the chance, however, to be around friends and family in a chill environment where I can cook and share, I come alive. Like truly come alive. . . I’ve said this a billion times and it becomes more and more true as the years tick on... I learned all of my cooking and entertaining skills from my mom. I will never be as good as her. I know that to be true, but something happened today. As I was preparing this corn salad (delicious by the way and linked in profile) as part of my taco bar for my partners family (100% also my family) I had this wave of calm rush over me. I got this. . . I. Got. This. . . Over 20 years of cooking for people but in this moment, today, I believed in my skills. No stress, no worries, just pleasure in preparing my recipes for people that I love. . . That’s wellness. . . Not counting macros or calories or worrying about balancing it all today. Just being present. Doing what I love for people I love. Pouring buckets of love into the food I make for you, for my family, for anyone. I love sharing good food with you. Thanks for being here, and if we ever meet IRL let me cook for you, cause I think I might be a little bit good at it 😎what’s something you are really good at that you are ready to own? . . . . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ . #radicalselfcare #selflove #positivevibes #liveinspired #wellnessblogger #wellpreneur #mindbodysoul #mindbodygram #mindbodyspirit #holisticliving #greenlifestyle #healthyhappylife #wellnessjourney #nourishyourself #inspirationdaily #functionalnutritionist #nycnutritionist #Nutritionist #CNSNutritionist #cornsalad #feedfeed #healthyrecipe #foodvsco #buzzfeast #foods4thought #instafood #thekitchn #yahoofood #FOODWINEWOMEN
Summer desserts are the bees knees. Fresh seasonal fruit, plus a simple real food crumble topping. . . This cherry 🍒 rhubarb crumble is gluten free, refined sugar free, Paleo, and so easy! . . . I recommend making in single serve portions, sharing is not necessary 😍 . . .
