Grain-Free Pumpkin Muffins {Vegan}
Pumpkin is everywhere! I try to refrain from posting tons of pumpkin recipes, just because not everyone likes pumpkin and people do want to see other recipes. But, I had to find a pumpkin muffin recipe that I could have. My stomach has been fickle lately and sometimes I do well with grains and other […]

Drink the Rainbow: Green Goodness Smoothie

Greens…most of us know we should be getting more of them in our diet, but if you’re anything like me, that can be difficult to figure out sometimes!
