Berta-Banana Muffins| it’s my Breakfast!
If you know me in every day life, then you know i’m a sucker for sweets … and an outright savage for cake and cupcakes. True to form the only sweets I considering eating semi guilt free are MUFFINS. Also true to form, i’m VERY concerned about what actually goes into the delicious muffins my local…

Lemon, Ginger, Basil #infusedwater
One of my most favorite #infusedwater recipes. Lemons are in fact the fruit I prefer to all else because when drinking i’d rather sour than sweet. Try this for detox, debloating and cleansing. Or for plain old crisp refreshment. 1 lemon slice 1 jalapeno slice few shaves of fresh ginger 1 pineapple slice 1 large…

People Magazine x3 – still HALF my size
If you’re always prepared, you never have to get ready. When People Magazine asked me for a 3rd time if I was a still in shape and willing to share my story in a “Half their size” special edition as an ALL-Star once again, I was ready. Speaking frankly, changing my life at such a young…

Mason Jar Cobb Salad #3
I love great big messy cobb salads. More often than not, there are so many extra ingredients that the health factor is null and void. Cobb salad seems like a good idea – but really it’s just a tasty and filling farce, any healthy aspects of the salad are drenched in dressing and bacon!…

Interesting Oats
I grew up eating oatmeal. Usually Quaker oats “minute” oatmeal, must add LOTS of sugar, butter and or whole milk. Those days are long gone. My dad made the oatmeal soupy, I suppose to stretch the breakfast on cold winter mornings as thin as possible. I hate soupy oatmeal, enter – me not eating oatmeal…

Berries: A Fall Romance
This one was easy. All kinds of berries are in season! I’ve been creating more smoothies without bananas, though beloved, I don’t always crave the overly sweetness of the ripe. The tartness of the cranberries paired with the light sweet of the strawberries is a nice combination. Add the basil and you get a bit of…

On 35 – TheRobertaShow | Frightening Comfort
Officially 35, I’m claiming success on adulthood thus far but, truthfully speaking – i’m also claiming a bit of fright. I’ll explain, I believe a healthy dose of fear is necessary at times to discomfort you. While fear can stifle you for a time – facing it, is the only way to get THROUGH it. In my experiences,…

Spring Roll #formation
Preparing Asian inspired food intimidates me, but I love it. Spring rolls are near the top of the list, prepared in any way but very specifically when eaten raw, they leave a fresh and light feeling of fullness. Depending on the ingredients used you can really focus on the flavors and not the packaging. Obviously I…

Office Snacking: Nature Box
If you’re reading this, you probably have a problem. It could be with sweets, it could be with salt, but it’s probably the combination of both and eating too much of either at the wrong time. I consistently prepare my own snacks by either pre-packing fruits, nuts and vegetables OR baking something healthy enough to pass…
