One family's pursuit of balanced, intentional living.
Here’s a lunch that’s big enough for Darling Baby and myself to share: Black Beans cooked in bone broth with Kerrygold grass-fed cheese Strawberries Coconut flour pumpkin spice muffins (Recipe here. Go make them. Now. They’re amazing) Snow peas Guacamole The lunch containers we use are available here.
We stayed home today so I didn’t do any cute shapes or bento magic. The plan was to putter and get things done, but I ended up getting nothing done. We did have quite the dance party in the kitchen though! Here we have: Leftover Cranberry-Ginger Chicken from last night’s dinner Snow Peas Probiotic Ranch Dressing […]
I made this last night. It felt like Fall, and I wanted to eat something Fall-ish and amazing. So I threw all the Fall flavors in my kitchen together and hoped for the best. It turned out great. I baked this in the oven, but I’ll bet you could cook it in the slow cooker […]

I made Darling Baby a quick lunch today that showed him how much I <3 him. It included (Clockwise) An egg shaped like this with these molds. I let the egg cool a little too much so it cracked.

Which is nice, because you don’t have to worry about having messy things when you’re eating at home! Clockwise from the top: Kimchi A blueberry-raspberry coconut flour muffin Water A grape-cheese skewer Some leftover sloppy […]

This was just a quick snack to take to the park. Darling Baby and I usually share. I packed: Half an avocado with lemon juice, salt and pepper A cheddar cheese and cherry tomato skewer A raspberry-blueberry coconut flour muffin And a drumstick from the chicken I roasted Sunday. Easy, fast, tasty and nutrient dense.
I’m not a morning person. Not at all. So when I’m packing lunches, I really don’t want to mess around with making something awesome in the foggy period between waking and my son leaving for school. That’s why I make lunch things ahead of time in batches. I really want to pack my family healthy, delicious […]
