Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

February 2, 2020 by April Leave a Comment

Sometimes you just need chocolate. Am I right? Look, even as you're working hard on your healthy lifestyle and you've made some great progress, chocolate is part of the process 😄 After all, you're only human (#truthbomb.) And every once in a while, you gotta have a treat or snack or sweet that really turns....

Green Smoothie Delight

January 23, 2020 by April Leave a Comment

When it's cold as bleep out, it can be hard to get excited about green smoothies. It's like I just wanna be all chili-stew-and-soup-ing when the snow starts to fly and the temps are frigid. But at the same time, a green smoothie can be a hit of nutrition, veggies and refreshment when it seems...

Simple Cranberry and Orange Oatmeal “Scones”

January 12, 2020 by April Leave a Comment

Yay for cranberry season! That means Cranberry and Orange Oatmeal Scone time! Oh yes. Nothing like a tart cranberry in a scone or a simple cranberry sauce to bring feelings of fall/winter and all things cozy and bright. This recipe for my Cranberry Oatmeal Orange Scones aside, the only thing not so great about scones...

Easy Kale Chips

November 19, 2019 by April Leave a Comment

Finally, finally, finally I figured out how to make kale chips {cue the hallelujahs!} This was after many attempts of trying to get the right combination of the kale, oil, salt and time and temp of the oven. My many less-than-yummy batches spanned the spectrum from sad and soggy to burnt to a crisp and everything in...

Sweet and Salty Oat Bites

November 11, 2019 by April 1 Comment

One could really get overwhelmed by the array of granola bars out there... This section of the grocery store has really exploded in the past few years. It's hard to know which is a good one vs. a bad one. Here's a trick if you're choosing between two different granola bars: Read the label and...

Kid Friendly Pumpkin Scones

November 3, 2019 by April Saunders 2 Comments

I feel like sometimes my toddler truly lives on air. Well, maybe not air but he certainly has his food, ahem, preferences. I don’t want to label him “picky”. I think he’s just acting like a toddler. However, it can be quite unnerving as a dietitian when your 3 year old eats only the CUCUMBER...

Tropical Green Smoothie

October 28, 2019 by April Leave a Comment

This Tropical Green Smoothie is my new favourite smoothie. It's sweet; filling and suuuuuper yummy. This smoothie totally reminds me of hot and sunny days so I'll definitely be making this smoothie to get a hit of summer once winter hits. We are still a few months away from winter here in Southern Ontario but...

Easy Coconut Energy Bites

August 1, 2019 by April Leave a Comment

With only 4 ingredients, these Easy Coconut Energy Bites must be one of the best energy bite recipe out there. Not too long ago, I changed up one from the side of a peanut butter jar (thanks Kraft) and came up with these Easy Coconut Energy Bites. File these bad boys under dangerously delicious. I can't hardly...

Simple Mango Salsa

July 8, 2019 by April 1 Comment

It's summer and summer calls for salsa! This Simple Mango Salsa is my new go-to for pool parties and impromptu get togethers. I made it up after many long hours researching online, painstaking recipe development and tons of trial and error. Totally kidding! I got it from a chip bag. For reals. My favourite chips...

Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie

June 7, 2019 by April Saunders Leave a Comment

It's finally, finally, finally spring! And slapping the sunblock on the kids and making lemonade on the weekends is a welcome change to winter we just had. (Someone who does not agree with me? Our dog. Poor Bruce Wayne, he would much rather summer was a quick flash of maybe a day or so. He...
