ZUCCHINI PIZZA BOATS

I love getting creative with food! It makes me attracted to it when it comes out “artsy” for lack of a better term, (ya ya i’m weird). If you are looking for a healthy pizza idea for dinner without a flour based crust, you can always swap it for a vegetable base! I find that…

A BERRY DAIRY BEDTIME SNACK

Okay, so I am pretty sure that almost everyone is somewhat familiar with the “no eating after 7pm rule” and realistically, it’s unpractical crap, especially for individuals who are highly active, athletic, or even bodybuilders or figure/fitness models. People who fall under any of these categories are constantly burning calories/ fat even when they aren’t…
