GOOD HELLO FRIENDS! Can you believe that Santa will be here in just 35 sleeps? #whaaaat It has been on like Donkey Kong in my world, the hospitality industry has kicked it up a gear with nonstop events and partying, as well as a bunch of fun gigs for me too.
My journey to good health post grueling conversation with the doctor 3 months ago has been a time of restoration and healing and returning to the things I love with a stronger, braver and happier heart.
There really is something about speaking your truth that kicks fear in the butt, because all my days are now filled with sunshine and rainbows.
It’s crazy to find that not consuming gluten, dairy, sugar, alcohol & caffeine has been the key to my success. My new found relationship with food has reignited my love of cooking, I am back in the kitchen creating and crafting delicious, wholesome and healthy foods.
I’m finding delight in even the simplest dishes. Discovering foods that make my body happy has been rewarding, especially finding stand out sweet treats (thanks NQN) when I just can’t fight those sugar cravings. Enter Raw Vegan Strawberry Bliss Balls.
These bliss balls taste just like dessert, are a great snack idea to give you a boost of energy, are super simple to prepare and just require a quick whiz in the food processor and bonus…. they are a healthier alternative.
So tell me Dear Reader, what’s your go to healthy snack?
