Lentils for days!!!! Best Monday night meal because now we have lunches for the week! Honestly probably cost less than 4 bucks to make all this! #meatlessmonday #eatlessmeat #homecooking #cheapeats #sugarfree2018

Meal #3 from #whole30fastandeasy . Hot beef and broccoli salad found on page six. I added extra garlic because there is no such thing as too much garlic and crushed red pepper because I'm spicy 😎. #verdict = we absolutely loved this meal and can't wait to eat it as leftovers tomorrow from lunch Nick and I were in Brooklyn this weekend for our dear friends bridal shower. We did not give into the sugar dragon and are still holding strong on that fort, we did however beg for pizza after a great night out. We are both looking forward to a pretty clean week. Hope everyone else is staying strong with their #newyearsresolution #whole30 #everythinginmoderation #sugarfree2018 #cleancooking #homemade #eatrealfood

Meal number two of #whole30fastandeasy was a success. This is one of the quickest #whole30 meals that I have made to date. Super simple, chicken, lemon grass, ginger, red pepper flakes, bok choy, and cashews. Took about 25 minutes total to make. WE LOVED IT. 

Sugar free Update:...we are still holding strong..only 360 More days till we complete our year :) I have faith that Nick and I will prevail...Today I had to sit across the candy aisle as I waited for my car to get inspected and get an oil change. I am happy I have made the commitment to slay my sugar demon. 

Hoping all of you are kicking ass on your new years resolutions, and any #whole30 newbies needing support or needing suggestion feel free to hit me up. My goal is to help just one person this year!

Paper and pen type of girl... Braving the "storm" and hitting up the grocery store after my doctor appointment. Trying to be as productive as possible on this snow day. Hoping to get the ingredients for 5 more meals out of the #whole30fastandeasy cook book. Hoping #wegmans doesn't let me down #whole30 #sugarfree2018 #cleaneating #newyearsresolution

1st Meal that I cooked from #whole30fastandeasy found on page 234. Slow-cooker Pork Chili. We didn’t have cilantro since the grocery story was a cluster you know what, and to top it off there was snow in the forecast which is enough to make northern VA think the end of the world was approaching. 

Verdict: We loved it, it made a ton, tasted amazing, and pork is cheap. Win win for us!

Welcome to my new year’s resolution....COOK THE WHOLE DAMN BOOK! 

Background: My boyfriend Nick and I have completed several rounds of whole30. Our first round was January 2017, my 3 sisters and mom wanted to try out whole30. After convincing Nick that not having creamer in his coffee was not the end of the world, we too decided to give this whole30 a whirl. We thought we lived pretty healthy lifestyles but felt a little fat from the holidays. Never could I have imagine how unhealthy we actually were, how addicted to sugar we were, or how much whole30 could really change our lives. 

This year we are trying to stay closer to our whole30 roots (small time goal) and eat mostly clean, but don’t get me wrong we will still enjoy some booze along the way. Our big time goal....A YEAR WITHOUT SUGAR....what we mean by this is we wont eat candy, ice cream, or other sweets, which even after whole30 we have been known to do. It is a big goal but we are going to try our best. I”m blogging here to track our progress and hopefully keep us honest throughout 2018. 

In 2017 I started to follow a lot of runners, and clean eaters, and they really have inspired me to be a better me. So by going public with my goals this year I hope to inspire at least one person to be a better them. :) 

So here I GO ...HAPPY 2018!!!
