Thanksgiving is fast approaching, and while all the food and family makes this one of the best holidays of the year, it can be the worst for vegetarians who want to eat more than salad for dinner. While everyone else at the table is like this…. You’re like this… Let’s face it, Thanksgiving is […]
Cooking up a big batch of something and freezing the leftovers can be a huge lifesaver. On a busy day when there’s no time to slave away in the kitchen, all you would need to do is reheat and eat. This takes minutes compared to the hours it would have taken to prepare and cook […]
Thanksgiving is the only holiday that is solely about food. Okay, you can argue that it’s about football and family, and heck – maybe even Christopher Columbus – but when it comes down to the nitty gritty, Thanksgiving dinner is really all that matters (except for giving thanks, of course). From turkey to stuffing to […]
Greek yogurt – thick, creamy, and double the protein as regular yogurt – is all the rage these days. There’s a lot to love about this popular probiotic, especially when it’s in a huge bowl topped with crunchy granola and fresh fruit.

From pumpkin-shaped Reese’s at the grocery store to jars of candy corn at the office, temptations are everywhere. It’s difficult to resist, and it gets even harder once the […]
When the thermostat starts to drop and forecasts of colder weather are on the horizon, it’s easy to put exercise on the back burner. If it’s rainy, snowy, or just plain cold outside, most of us avoid exercise like the plague. We would much rather curl up on the couch eating a warm, comforting casserole […]
Apple season has finally arrived, which means it’s time for apple pie, apple cider, and a better excuse to eat peanut butter out of the jar (using an apple slice as your spoon makes it healthier, right?) Whether you’re at an apple orchard or just the produce section of the grocery store, you’ll notice the […]
