I always try to be very environmentally conscious. I like to credit most of my eco-friendliness to living in Austin, Texas for seven years. They stopped using plastic bags at grocery stores, I mean come on! I got into a lot of really good eco-friendly habits over the years so I wanted to come on […]

With the Stay-At-Home Order going on right now, we have been eating a lot of vegetarian and vegan meals in our house lately. We aren’t going to the grocery store so we aren’t re-stocking our fridge with meat, plus we just feel better physically when we eat vegetables, fruit, and grains only. No bloating, healthier […]

Finding healthy dinners to make during the week can be difficult if you are super busy. I’m always tempted to just go through the Taco Bell drive-thru on my way home from work, but then I remember that I’m not in high school anymore and can’t eat fast food every night without gaining any weight!

Once upon a time, I tried meal prepping to 1.) eat healthier, and 2.) save money by avoiding eating at restaurants. It really worked for me when I was in college because I was so poor and hungry, but now that I’m out of college and I can afford to eat, I just don’t really […]
