HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THIS CREATION?! I know I might seem biased since this *is* one of our recipes, but seriously - this stovetop spring frittata is so dang visually appealing.
Frittatas are kind of the jack-of-all-trades of breakfast dishes. What I mean is that you can pretty much throw anything in it and it's going to work.
When I have produce in the fridge that I need to use up, I usually end up cooking it down in some oil and fragrant spices, adding eggs, and frittata-ing it up.
Yeah, I just made frittata a verb.
This particular version features all those amazing vegetables that you'll find at your farmer's market right ...

Paleo Blueberry Muffins
Do you ever get the desire to bake? I'm not the biggest baker in the world, but it will hit me every now and then...especially if I've just been watching The Great British Bake-Off.
Have you watched this series on Netflix yet?
If you haven't, I'm a little jealous because you get to experience the joy of having your eyes opened to the cutest, friendliest, sweet-as-pie baking show on air.
The premise is similar to any other cooking show except for the fact that the contestants and judges have to-die-for accents and everyone is SO. FRIENDLY.
Sure, the stakes are high (everyone is fighting to be crowned Britain's top amateur ...

Blueberry Pancake Scones
I'm not going to lie to you - I do love a good pastry. Nice, warm, and right out of the oven - it doesn't get much better than that. Especially first thing in the morning.

Detox Green Smoothie
Have you ever eaten or drank something that tasted just like the color it was?
Does anyone else know what I'm talking about? Or am I just crazy?
This smoothie is a prime example - it tastes GREEN. Like if green had a taste, it would be this.
I personally love smoothies because they are the easiest way to get a bunch of vitamins and minerals into your body in one 8oz glass. But the thing you have to watch out for when it comes to smoothies is the sugar content.
Even smoothies that are made of fruit can have a really high sugar content. It tastes delicious - obviously - but it can spike your blood sugar just like your favorite candy ...

If you're anything like me, you love a good, filling, savory breakfast. And this one hits just the spot.
Almost always, when prescribing nutrition advice to people, my number one piece of advice is this - veggies with every meal. That's when the question comes up - how do I eat veggies for breakfast?
There are definitely ways to do it. Smoothies are one of my favorite. But this recipe does it too. Combining greens, like kale, with protein and fat-rich foods can make even the most ardent veggie hater find them tasty.

Perfectly Poached Eggs With The Instant Pot
Eggs are an absolute staple in my house. Most mornings, I eat eggs in some fashion - in a scramble, an omelet, over easy with bacon and veggies on the side. I don't get burnt out on food too often.
But, sometimes I feel that way about eggs. And when that happens, you just have to switch up your egg game.
Are you with me on that? If you are, then it's time to try to poach 'em.
Poaching is notoriously tricky to do just right. But with the use of my favorite kitchen gadget (hellooooo Instant Pot), you can get it right every single time. And it is stupid easy to do.
Basically, you can crack the eggs into a small container and put that ...

Loaded with fresh veggies, it’s full of fiber and thanks to the eggs - it's protein-rich as well. I promise this will keep you satisfied until lunch.
