I’m currently halfway through my fourth January Whole30 challenge and feeling its benefits more than any year prior. Looking back, it’s almost shocking to see how much has changed since my first time. When my friend Andrea originally encouraged me to try Whole30, I was about to turn 30 years old. Working…

Quick & Easy Whole30 Recipes
I was so intimidated when we started our first Whole30 challenge three years ago. I had never spent that much time cooking, grocery shopping, or eating consciously… ever. This year, it almost seems like we’re on auto-pilot. Our grocery list is saved in my Amazon Prime Now past orders, nearly all of…
Favorite Tools & Products for a Successful January Whole30
2019: Another new year… another round of #JanuaryWhole30. I think I say this every year, but this time around – I feel more prepared than ever. Over the past few Whole30 challenges, I’ve found some go-to products, perfected our favorite recipes, and pared-down my arsenal of kitchen tools to the essentials. We…
January Whole 30: Week 1
Perhaps the third time’s the charm, but this year’s January Whole30 is off to the best start! I feel like a seasoned pro, with my go-to recipes and tips down pat. There are also SO many more Whole30-friendly or approved options available in the marketplace than my first round. But the ultimate…

How to Host a Whole30 Potluck Dinner
We did it! Made it halfway through Whole30, and I’m feeling amazing. The tiger blood has started coursing, and I’m ready to finish strong. To celebrate the milestone, my friends Andrea from Loubies and Lulu and Barbara and Emily from Fortuitous Foodies threw a Whole30 Potluck Dinner on Saturday. Emily emailed me…
Whole30 Cinnamon Chia Pudding
The biggest Whole30 sacrifice for my husband is breakfast. His favorite things to eat are donuts, french toast, and cinnamon rolls. (None of which are even remotely Whole30-friendly or adaptable) I finally got him to like eggs last year during our first January Whole30 Challenge, but even I get tired of scrambled…
January Whole30 // Week 2
I’m excited to write that we’ve survived the first week of our January Whole 30 Challenge! This second week should be interesting, because I didn’t spend all day meal-prepping yesterday like I had for the previous week. I did make a pot of my favorite Whole30-friendly Chocolate Chili that we shared with…
