What I’m Loving Lately – June 2018
Hey, hey! Travis and I are in Curacao on vacation right now, so this month’s edition of What I’m Loving Lately is prescheduled. I am going to do my best to unplug and unwind while we’re away, but admittedly, as a blogger this can sometimes be very hard to do. This will be our first time in Curacao,…

Healthy Mashed Celery Root
Celeriac, also simply called celery root, is an unusual vegetable, one that you rarely see in cookbooks or on restaurant menus. Though, I do think it’s growing in popularity, and I suspect we’ll start to see much more of it within the health food community soon due to its great nutritional profile. Admittedly, celery root…

Mango Turmeric Ginger Smoothie
I love making smoothies on days that I feel like I need an extra boost of fruits and veggies. They pack so many nutrients in just one glass, and they’re an easy way to sneak in otherwise bland or “healthy” tasting ingredients like leafy greens, and in this case, turmeric.
