Pink Chocolate Coconut Bark
You know how some people say “I have a sweet tooth”? Well I have sweet TEETH. That’s right – a whole mouthful. But as I have gotten older, the 5 cent candy aisle at the nearest convenience store just won’t cut it anymore. I want sweet, but I always want beneficial. I want “treat yourself”,…

Plant Powered Pizzas – “Mini Watermelon”
Hey all you beautiful strong babes – how are you guys feeling this Friday? I have been feeling extra tired these past couple days – my body’s signals that I need a break! It has taken me years to listen to and appreciate those signals, but I have and I am. The last thing I…
