Holistic Nutrition with Emily Joldersma, RHN
I enjoy but rarely make ‘macaroon-type’ things – you know, stuff with shredded coconut. I don’t know why, but my first instinct would probably be to make my collagen cookie dough protein bites for the eighty-billionth time (they’re just so tasty!). Having made these delicious coconut protein bars, though, I may just have to permanently expand […]

Valentine’s Day makes a person think about sexual health. It’s a holiday about love and romance (and cards and candies), but it can also serve as an opportunity to check in with ourselves about our sexual health. And when I say sexual health, I mean all of the factors and concerns that contribute to the […]

In my opinion, January isn’t the month for perfection. It’s the month for comfort and coziness. I mean, there are definitely good things about January: the days are getting longer, you feel inspired to set goals, and the year is fresh with possibility. At certain times, you want to dance with delight because the year […]

These collagen protein chocolate chip balls started as an experiment and have now become basically a staple in my life. I’m not sure I can live without them. I’ve literally made this recipe 10+ times and it’s time to share it. I found the original recipe for these on Healy Eats Real and I felt compelled […]

In other words, utter perfection. Let all summer days be […]

Cashew butter, almond milk, cinnamon, banana, greens, protein powder – oh yes, together they make one delicious smoothie. And they are also an answer to the age old question (and frankly, it’s not an answer I ever thought I’d hear myself say, but here it is): yes, it is possible to have too much chocolate. I […]

Well, it’s Valentine’s Day! This is a day to celebrate love, in all its forms. Love for your family, your friends, your pets, your lover, your garden, your home, and above all, yourself. Today is a good day to give yourself a little extra care. Maybe an epsom salt bath, maybe a special nourishing dinner, […]
Read MorePosting a paleo recipe on what is generally a plant-based blog? That’s right folks! Gird your loins – we’re about to break free from some labels. Seriously, though. I’ve been doing a lot of reading about Paleo eating and I think there is a lot about Paleo to admire and adopt. Based on my (albeit beginners) […]
Read MoreI love bran muffins. It’s something that I easily forget when I’m busy stuffing chocolate chips into every recipe I make, but a trip to Virginia last weekend (Virginia has nothing to do with bran muffins, per se, except that I was there when I remembered how delicious bran muffins are) reminded me that the […]
