Keto Chicken Soup
Fall is in the air and it is totally soup season. Back in the day that meant popping open a can. My body just does not tolerate all those nasty chemicals and preservatives. It is weird that the cleaner I eat the less tolerant I am of unhealthy foods and ingredients. On the plus side Read More
Breaking the Fast
I am so excited. We made it through 15 days of fasting with 3 being water only fasting days, but today we got to have our first post-fast meal at dinner. We had cold pressed juice for breakfast, bone broth for lunch, and this beautiful salad for dinner. Nothing tastes as good as a post-fast Read More

Quickie Dinner Night
One of the reasons people often give for not eating healthy is that they do not have enough time to make a healthy dinner. I totally get it. I am a very busy mother of two who works full time and has a private practice on the side. I rarely get home before 6:30 and Read More
Today’s Work Food
Here is what I packed for breakfast and lunch to take with me to work today. Hardboiled egg and blackberries. Leftover tritip and cucumber. Food doesn’t have to be complicated. It is just fuel. Had yummy butter lettuce tacos for dinner. One of my favorites. I love Mexican food. Macros for the day: 67% Fat, Read More
