Whether you’re new to healthy living and want some tips to get started or you’re just looking for quick and healthy recipes, you’ve come to the right place.
I’m Megan Gilmore, a certified nutritionist consultant (CNC) and busy mom of 2 kids. The recipes I share here are:
- gluten-free
- made with real food ingredients
- have short ingredient lists
- and are super-easy to prepare!
It may surprise you to hear that I grew up eating fast food and processed snacks every day, but I think that’s why my recipes end up being so relatable. I want the food I eat to taste really good! You can read more about how I got started with healthy eating here.
My Approach to Detox
I used to struggle with binge eating, so now I don’t adhere to any super-strict rules or guidelines when it comes to eating. Our bodies come equipped with everything we need to detox on a daily basis, but we can help support it by:
- eating more real, unprocessed foods
- eating less processed and packaged items
- practicing food combining, to optimize digestion (no cutting out food groups!)
- moving your body every day
Making consistent changes that you can stick to is the way you create lasting results, so I hope you’ll find some healthy recipes here that will make you look forward to eating well every day!
