392 A few days ago, I lost my mother. She was fighting a medical condition that deteriorated her lungs steadily the past five years in addition to battling cancer three times in the past three years. She was fighting a lot and did it really well with grace and strength that can only inspire. I’m learning to cope with her passing and this new life ahead without her in it everyday. I finally decided to roll out her yoga mat today, four days after her passing. Doing yoga for my grief today was hard and easy at the same time.…
Let’s face it: a power rack looks like a giant metal monstrosity that takes up half the space in your garage. But if you’re serious about building strength, staying safe, and saving money in the long run, it’s the MVP of your home gym.

A handful of nuts is one of the healthiest and most convenient grab-and go snacks. They can be easily pre-portioned into 100-calorie snackable servings, tossed into a bag, stored in your desk at work, sneaked into a movie theater, and eaten whenever the hangry monster threatens to strike. Unlike some not-so-nutritious crunchy snacks (we’re looking at you, potato chips), nuts are rich in protein, fiber, and healthy fats — all of which help sustain a feeling of satiety, or fullness.

White beans! It seems like they’re all the rage these days (hello, try my Burst Cherry Tomato & Pepperoni White Bean Bake), and I’ve been loving adding them to dinner recipes. I actually got inspired by the cozy flavors of Tuscan white bean soup and decided to create a one pan meal packed with the same savory flavors but in a scoopable, dip-able skillet. My one pan white wine chicken sausage white bean bake is one of those dinners that feels like a giant hug (and is especially needed during these cold months). It’s almost like a pasta bake, but…

I love a good avocado toast—simple, delicious, and healthy. But until recently, I had no idea it actually contains a surprising amount of protein! Now, it’s not as protein-packed as eggs or chicken, but it still adds to your daily intake. If you use whole wheat bread with half a medium avocado, you’re looking at around 5–6 grams of protein per serving. Of course, the exact amount depends on your choice of bread and how much avocado you pile on (because let’s be honest, sometimes I go overboard!). Let’s break it down and see exactly how much protein is in…
