I recently figured out a new recipe that I’m really loving. This chicken artichoke mushroom recipe is so good AND super simple. The recipe below is just for two, but you can add more chicken and easily stretch this to four. I also kept our portion high on veggies. Based on how much you have… Continue reading chicken artichoke mushroom recipe

Trader Joe’s Seasonings
I could seriously just roam the Trader Joe’s seasonings aisle for hours. Of course, every aisle seems to have something I can’t live without. Frozen veggies in an exotic sauce, chocolate from Brazil, some kind of fish I’ve never heard of before… the list goes on and on. And while I can (and do)… Continue reading Trader Joe’s Seasonings
Portion Control Snacks
I honestly do love healthy food. I’ll take a bowl of quinoa over pasta any day of the week. The problem for me, and many other people isn’t what I eat- it is how much I eat. Read: I have a problem with portion control! Even “bad” food isn’t that bad for you in small… Continue reading Portion Control Snacks

Daylight Saving Time Tricks
Yesterday might have been the Daylight Saving Time change, but today was the real impact. That Monday after we spring forward can be painful. Even for me- the morning person poster child. I have to admit, as I was at boot camp this morning I couldn’t help but think… ‘It’s seriously 4:30 a.m. right now.… Continue reading Daylight Saving Time Tricks
Among Friends Protein Pancakes
Does anyone else smile when they hear the words protein pancakes? It’s like two amazing things in one. But I have to admit, not all protein pancake mixes are created equal. I ’ve had some that taste chalky and just a little off. While scrolling through Instagram recently, I found a picture of a beautiful… Continue reading Among Friends Protein Pancakes

Rescate Coffee in Elk Grove has amazing drinks, friendly staff, and a vibe that makes you want to hang out there all day long.
