There have been WAY more snow days in Boulder than I envisioned there would be this winter. And we all know what that means. Soup and stews. Lots and lots of soups and stews. This version is fairly simple, hearty and warming. It’s got lots of nutrient-dense elements and it all comes together beautifully by […]

But trying to get a little creative, rather than just sticking to basic green smoothies all the time. Smoothie bowls are really my preference, because I love decorating them […]
