I spent the month of May talking about intentional parenting and how that’s taking shape in my home. In that same vein, I’m also currently at the NCHE Thrive Homeschool Conference, which I want to come back to. But I want to pivot for a moment to something I’m really excited about sharing with you this coming month. Whether it be character building, cleaning techniques, or the food we eat, I consider the constant improvement of my home one of my roles as a wife, mother and Christian woman. And this product is something that is really helping me do that in a unique andRead More →

This is the third installment in my series on Intentional Parenting. You can read about My Goals for 2019 here. So, I have a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition & Dietetics degree. I planned from the day I graduated on not only curating for myself the greatest diet ever, but also feeding my kids THE most optimal diet known to man. I just knew they would be the type to eat whatever I put in front of them. I would not have picky kids. I wouldn’t take no for an answer. And then I had said kids. And it all went to pot. Seriously, is there anythingRead More →

Hello my fellow eaters! Today I’m sliding another recipe your way. One thing my family seems to eat a lot of is pesto. And one thing I’ve missed since adopting a plant-based lifestyle is creamy white pasta sauces. (But I haven’t missed the heavy, yucky feeling I get after eating them!!) Enter: My favorite self-invented staple: vegan pesto cream sauce. Make It Vegan Or Take the Easy Way Out Now, to say this is vegan is slightly misleading. We eat as vegan as possible most of the time, however we don’t eat SO much pesto that I am willing to go out and hunt down pre-madeRead More →

It’s not like moms have a ton of time to bake with small children clinging to their ankles. I myself can hardly get 5 minutes to chop veggies for dinner without first making sure my toddler is parked in front of the TV. But when I do have time to bake, I try to bake healthy. What mom doesn’t want that? Especially with fall approaching, I’m revving up my mixer. Because there’s no better time for baking!! Whether you are baking cakes or something savory, there are ways of making your recipe healthier without compromising flavor or texture. There are modifications you can make toRead More →

“Mise en place.” Have you heard this term before? If you are seasoned in the kitchen, chances are you are familiar with it. If not, you are about to save so much time and stress by learning this simple concept. What Is Mise En Place? “Mise en place” is a french phrase meaning “putting in place” or “everything in its place.” Pronounced MEEZ-ahn-plahs, it is a philosophy used by professional chefs and in many home kitchens alike. It acts as a noun, a verb, and a state of mind; that is, mise en place refers to the physical set up of your ingredients, the actRead More →

Hello readers! Today, I’m trying something new and blazing a trail on Huntress At Home: a recipe. Upon adopting a plant-based lifestyle I’ve been obsessed with making vegan versions of my favorite foods. I’ve also been reading a lot about food photography, though I don’t claim to be an expert in that field just yet. Food blogging has never been as much my style as other forms of writing, but I wanted to give it a shot because, frankly, food is what I do best. I have a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition, so I spend copious amounts of my free time consuming health andRead More →

Today, I’m excited to share my latest project with you, one that always helps me to better achieve my health goals. But first, I’ll share what those health goals are! My Health Goals For This Year 1.

Over the summer, smack dab in the middle of morning sickness, I revisited an old conviction and decided I wanted to return to plant-based lifestyle. For about 6 months in college I ate a vegan diet and the benefits were awesome! Unfortunately, it was short-lived because being vegan while living on a college campus proved almost impossible. Plant-Based & Not Totally Vegan Now that I run my own home, it’s infinitely easier to create the menu I want and my family needs–I’m not bound by some campus meal plan. However, living with a man who loves meat makes the strict vegan diet rather challenging (asRead More →

Christmas has come and gone and I’m already thinking about how I can get back on track once the season of sweets is over. If I haven’t totally gone off the edge, I’m definitely standing on it! (Who was I to think I could resist the homemade haystacks, baklava, samoas, and payday bars!? Rum balls anyone?) If you haven’t read my posts on the why and how to of planning your detox, check out Parts One & Two! If you go through a detox, be aware that you can’t jump right back into a normal diet–and, hopefully, you won’t want to. Here are a few tipsRead More →
