Simple Lemon Rosemary Roasted Chicken

Simple Lemon Rosemary Roasted Chicken

Something about roasting an entire chicken has always felt a little intimidating to me. In the past I have generally stuck to my plain, boring organic chicken breasts, however that really isn’t the most affordable way to purchase meat when choosing organic, free range, and…

Brown Butter Sourdough Cinnamon Buns

Brown Butter Sourdough Cinnamon Buns

First, let me start out by addressing that yes I am a nutritionist posting a cinnamon bun recipe. There’s this misconception that nutritionists eat perfectly all the time, and while that may be true for some, it is not how I live my life. While…

Healthy Greek Yogurt French Onion Dip

Healthy Greek Yogurt French Onion Dip

I’m on a roll here with dips, and after perfecting my healthy ranch, naturally I had to move on to a french onion dip. I am a dip person through and through. I know, not everyone shares this sentiment. Give me all the sauce, dips, and anything that’s going to add some good flavour and excitement. Chopped veg are great, but they’re not going to cut it alone as a snack for me.. but add a dip and I am for SURE into it. Those veg are just a vessel, you know? Typically french onion dips are packed with sketchy ingredients you don’t understand and are sour cream based if they are fresh. There’s nothing wrong with sour cream, especially if it’s an organic, grass fed variety (yay for Vitamin K), but swapping the sour cream for greek yogurt gives this classic a protein boost and allows you to enjoy a whole lot more of the dip without consuming your daily calorie intake. If you’re dairy free, an unsweetened cashew, almond, or coconut yogurt would work here, though it won’t be as creamy. You could also swap in coconut cream with a bit of lemon juice for that tang, if you don’t want to miss out on that creaminess.

The Best EVER Healthy Greek Yogurt Ranch

The Best EVER Healthy Greek Yogurt Ranch

I feel like in terms of food, ranch can be kind of controversial… you either love it or are repulsed. There is no in between. I LOVE a good creamy, homemade ranch… not so much the bottled stuff. The texture and ingredient lists generally throw…

Crockpot White Chicken Chili [Gluten Free + Dairy Free]

Crockpot White Chicken Chili [Gluten Free + Dairy Free]

I LOVE a good chili. Up until about a year ago I had never tried White Chicken Chili which honestly is a bit of a disgrace. Most recipes out there are filled with dairy, and my husband can’t tolerate it, so we avoid it for…
