I had one thing on my Christmas list I gave my husband this year- A Vitamix. Anyone familiar with the cost of Vitamix understands why the list was short. These machines are a pretty penny. But anyone who has used a Vitamix before also understands why I really wanted one. Calling it a… Continue reading Vitamix Review

Bone Broth
Bone Broth is credited with numerous benefits including aiding in recovery from a distance run, to improving the glow of your skin. I’m not sure if it’s a miracle drug, but why not give it a try??!! Plus if you add a slice of avocado to a nice little cup size serving and… Continue reading Bone Broth
healthy stuffed bell peppers
Winter comfort foods are the best. When I think of my favorites, warm healthy stuffed bell peppers are right up there. To be fair, I live in Sacramento, California, so I can’t complain about the freezing temps. There is no shoveling snow for this girl. But the last few days have been our coldest… Continue reading healthy stuffed bell peppers
Turkey Meatball Recipe
One of my New Year’s resolutions for 2017 is to eat less processed foods. So what to do when I’m craving something like turkey meatballs? Well learning how to make them (and make them healthy!) is a good start! In fact, I should likely just add “learn to cook” as one of my stated… Continue reading Turkey Meatball Recipe
Eataly In New York City
If you love food and your heading to New York City anytime soon, you have to add Eataly to your must-visit list. During my recent trip to NYC my husband, sister, and I checked out their location in the Freedom Towers (they also have one in the Flatiron District). Basically, it’s the Bergdorf’s of… Continue reading Eataly In New York City
Roasted Chicken
Isn’t it funny how making a roasted chicken makes you feel all Martha Stewart- like?? I experienced that feeling when for the first time in a very long time, I made a roasted chicken for dinner. I know totally random, but I got the recipe and inspiration from a cookbook I’m loving right… Continue reading Roasted Chicken
sweet potato and butternut squash recipe
Thanksgiving sides are really my favorite part of the meal. I like turkey and I have a total sweet tooth, so desserts are a close second. But I feel like Thanksgiving dinner is just made for sides. And we’ve all read the Shape article, or watched the Dr. Oz episode where they break down the… Continue reading sweet potato and butternut squash recipe
Chicken Tomato Stew Burrito
So, who else stayed up wayyyy too late last night watching election results, and feels completely drained today? Maybe even depressed??? I know I’m not the only one. I feel like this whole situation has even zapped my motivation. Dinner tonight consisted of leftover quinoa and a few scoops of Justin’s Maple Almond… Continue reading Chicken Tomato Stew Burrito
Good Eats Cooking Class
I’m not a cook. I’ve mentioned this a few times before on the blog. I love to eat and I’m happy to clean up. But you really don’t need me in the kitchen cooking. I’m not shy about this fact, either. Recently, I was talking with one of my friends about my lack… Continue reading Good Eats Cooking Class
International Food Blogger Conference
I’m so excited because in a little over a week I’ll be attending the 2016 International Food Blogger Conference. I live in Sacramento, so when I heard the conference would be in my hometown this year, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to be there. I came up with the idea for UnSipped about 6… Continue reading International Food Blogger Conference
