  • Chocolate Chai Coconut Water Protein Shake Thing

    Good morning, internet friends! I successfully got up and worked out this morning! Whew! It is seriously difficult to get up before 6 am. Okay, some days that’s near impossible too. But I’m thrilled I got up and got moving, and I mixed up this awesome drink (it was an experiment but it worked) for a…

  • Triple Coconut French Toast

    All things coconut have arrived!!! On French toast 🙂 I really wanted French toast recently, so I whipped some up and topped it with my fantastic Nikki’s Vanilla Cake Batter Coconut Butter. It got all melty and amazing and the idea for uber-coconutty triple coconut French toast struck me. Coconut milk. Coconut oil. Coconut butter.

  • Weeknight Favorite | Indian Soy Curl Curry

    Last week on a day that I didn’t really feel much like cooking, I threw together this fast dinner that turned out just spectacular! I love those meals you don’t expect a ton from that wind up being phenomenal. This is mostly a store-bought meal. Pre-made curry simmer sauce, soy curls, coconut milk, quinoa, onions…

  • Pattaya Beach | 2 Ingredient Cocktail

    Hi, folks!  Happy Monday….?  Sorry I’ve been slow this past week, I was trying to focus my free time on some spring cleaning and all that getting-my-life-in-order stuff 🙂 That’s as under control as it’s going to be. To celebrate, a cocktail!  Woo hoo 🙂

  • Layered Strawberry Coconut Smoothie

    Hey everybody! How was your weekend?  Do anything to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day?  I didn’t really do anything, though yesterday was awesome for a totally un-holiday-related reason: I took the day off work.  Not for any reason at all, just because I needed a little breather, a day off, a personal day. It. was. amazing. …

  • Peppermint Ice Cream + Peppermint Mocha Afogato

    Two recipes in one today, so I’m jumping right into the food.  No need for a story behind this one – the reason is: because obviously.

  • Slow Cooker Coconut Curry Stew

    This is an everything-but-the-kitchen-sink kind of recipe.  I got out my slow cooker last weekend, filled it to the brim with all kinds of goodies from my fridge and cupboards, and let ‘er rip.  The result is a hearty and filling stew packed with wonderfully nutritious but comforting ingredients.  Perfect for that New Year’s resolution…

  • Blueberry Coconut Margarita (No Sugar Added)

    I present to you the health foodie’s margarita.  I’m not sure how else you could make a margarita more guiltless.  This bad boy is a nice refreshing drink of superfoods without any added sugar. It couldn’t be simpler to make, either, and only has five ingredients!

  • Coconut Red Curry Pumpkin Risotto

    The pumpkin continues!!!  I’ve had a couple serious cravings lately.  The first is Thai curries.  A few weeks ago Preston ordered some from a restaurant directly across the street from my apartment.  I’m pretty sure there’s crack in it, because ever since I stole just a few bites of that red curry, I have been dyyyyying for as much…

  • Weeknight Coconut Curry Lentils

    It’s the end of a long day and I get home from work hungry.  I know I should cook a healthful meal.  But I’m tired.  I got up at the crack of dawn (after too little sleep, far too often) and worked out, then worked a full day, and now I just want to relax and nourish myself.  So I head…
