- Tropical Kiwi Berry Bliss
  
  Posted at 5:30 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on August 5, 2013
  I was relaxing on a sandy beach, with the balmy salt breeze and sunny rays. While listening to the sound of the waves splashing against the seacoast…
  
  In the near distance I see a glass bowl overflowing with luscious, juicy, vibrant berries. I walk towards it…
  
  BUZZZZZ the alarm clock goes off and I’m staring up at my bedroom ceiling.
  
  No beach.
  
  No berries.
  
  It was all a dream. A dream that ended one step away from tasting those delicious berries. Don’t you just hate it when a good dream is cut short?
  
  That was when I decided I would depart on a mini-vacation. There would be no passport, packing or destination required for this trip. I would bring the tropics to me. And of course the berries. Continue reading →

- Raw Lemon Coconut Truffles Review & New Recipe: Crazy Cacao-Coconut Nut Butter Balls
  
  Posted at 6:16 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on July 24, 2013
  I recently came across the beautiful and inspiring site Petite-Kitchen.com and the recipe for Raw Lemon Coconut Truffles caught my eye. The recipe was simple, free of refined sugar, grain-free and full of natural whole foods ingredients.
  
  I used my Vita-mix to blend the few ingredients and then hand molded the resulting mixture into little balls. To finish, I rolled them in unsweetened coconut. The process almost too simple to believe the end result could be so decadent.
  
  I placed the mini truffles into the freezer and waited patiently.
  
  After 2 hours I took two truffles out. The truffles looked as if they were covered in a light dusting of fresh snow. How beautiful!
  
  A freshly steeped green tea combined with the cold and creamy truffle was the perfect mix. I felt like a child in a candy store. The only difference is this “candy” is so healthy and nutrient rich with no refined sugars or unnatural ingredients.
  
  Wide eyed and full of excitement…I took my first bite. Amazing…the truffles lasted but a few minutes. Continue reading →

- Paleo English Muffin Anyone?
  
  Posted at 7:34 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on July 16, 2013
  Tonight, I whipped up this gluten free and dairy free “English Muffin” from 5 ingredients and cooked it in the microwave for 2.5 minutes.
  
  I have not had bread (or anything resembling an English Muffin) in a very long time so this is a very exciting discovery for me.
  
  My English Muffin popped out of the glass dish and was incredibly fluffy.
  
  I spread on some coconut oil and blueberry spread and it was absolutely delicious. It was the perfect snack to enjoy with a relaxing green tea.
  
  I discovered the hashtag #Paleo while searching Instagram for food inspiration. I’ve known about the Paleo diet for some time but never realized all the great recipes it has to offer.
  
  I will definitely be incorporating some of the amazing looking recipes into my diet.
  
  Desserts, ice cream, cakes, pancakes…all wheat free and dairy free! My kind of food. Continue reading →

  I’m sure you’ve heard the saying you are what you eat. Agreed.
  
  Don’t let “Healthy Eating” overwhelm you. It can be fun, simple and delicious.
  
  Best part-rewarding.

  Say hello to:
  - Improved overall health

  - Improved mental clarity
  - Glowing skin & silky hair
  Say goodbye to:
  - Fatigue
  - Bothersome ailments
  - Bloating & water retention
  - Increased risk of disease
  I believe, a diet rich in whole foods is the key to health, long life & age defying power. In the door with antioxidants, vitamins and nutrients, out the door with feeling blah.
  
  You may not feel healthy today but you can change how you feel tomorrow. It’s never too late to adapt a new outlook on eating healthy. Continue reading →

- Strawberry Smoothie Dessert
  
  Posted at 12:37 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on July 5, 2013
  Strawberries. The word alone can conjure up images and thoughts of red, vibrant, juicy sweetness. Is there anything better than a big bowl of fresh, local, organic strawberries?
  
  Honestly…I can’t think of anything even close. Summer to me equals yummy, fresh picked berries. Lots and lots of berries.
  
  Last week I received 4 quarts of local, organic strawberries with my CSA share! I felt a little like Strawberry Shortcake in Strawberry Land.
  
  I was super excited and a tad bit worried. How would my family consume 4 quarts of berries without letting them go bad. Local organic berries have a very short shelf life. A couple of days, max. Continue reading →
