Healthy, easy vegan Quinoa Nourish Bowl with a killer avocado dressing! There’s a problem. I had a realization last week that this is turning into less of a blog and more into a weekly “What Really Grinds My Gears” segment (Family Guy fans – I hope you get the reference) wherein I complain about whatever’s…

She listens to her heart and her love of animals and decides to go vegan, adopting a completely plant-based diet and loving the new foods she’s discovered. Along the way she discovers…

As some of you may have read, I recently got back from a lovely trip to Colorado. The trip itself was great, but between you and me, I may have eaten few more Voodoo Doughnuts during the trip than I’m okay with admitting. Eating healthy while traveling is hard. I don’t know how David and Luise over at…
