Easy summer dinner (no cooking required) for women in their 40s

 


Don’t laugh, but…

Lentils are a girl’s best friend.

Hey, I said don’t laugh! 😂

I’m serious. If you have lentils, you can have a super quick summer meal in seconds. And lentils are full of fiber which keeps your weight healthy and your energy up.

Like I said…girl’s best friend.

This meal is definitely part of my summer rotation.

And the best part? The whole thing comes together in 10 minutes. 

Enjoy!

Seed cycling for hormonal balance

 Have you been struggling with heavy periods, migraines, sleep issues, cramps, or night sweats to name a few??? These seed & nut mixes may be the tool for you. When I first heard about seed cycling I thought it sounded very crunchy and hard to do. Then I realized I already eat some of these nuts and seeds.

Warm & Cozy Fall Recipe

  It was Easter weekend Spring 2021. My family and I were camping in our pandemic purchased used RV on a horse farm in upstate New York. The temps dropped to the low 20’s that night and our furnace wouldn’t work. We were freezing. We snuggled together all night to stay warm. Our pancakes and hot coffee the next morning never felt so cozy. The trip was salvaged.  Here is a recipe that will make you feel just as warm and cozy (from the comforts of your home).  The rest of my family agrees.  P.S. It’s dairy-free, gluten-free, & vegan.  Enjoy with your favorite ice cream:) Schedule a free chat with me here .
