Happy Cinco de Mayo amigos! I hope you enjoy some healthy Mexican food today, well everyday. I highly suggest pairing this salsa on top of my carnitas recipe with pickled onions and radishes, and some guacamole YUM.

Coconut Wrap

Lay out tortilla/wrap of choice. With a knife layer the spread, turkey, and veggies all to one side. It is easy to overstuff, so be conscious to make sure you can still wrap it up. This entire process should take about 5 minutes!

Nourishing Face Mask (DIY)

This mask is YUM, and yes, I might have even licked my fingers!

I made this recipe for a collaboration with Perfect Bar for Springtime. Did you know all the ingredients in the mask are also ingredients in the bars? Superfoods work best when used both internally and externally. So make sure you are eating your bar with you face mask on!

Spring Frittata “Muffins” with Salsa Fresca

These muffin style mini frittatas are simple for a fancy prepped meal for the work week instead of a large frittata. Enjoy thrown in a Tupperware for work or on the go. I love topping it with salsa fresca, hot sauce, avocado or on a bed of greens

Yerba Mate Finger Lime Cocktail

This is more than a superfood cocktail, it has native roots that were used medicinally and for food benefits. Since I have been traveling in Australia, going to farmers markets and trying new foods, I stumbled across these guys! From Kangaroo (all of it is wild and grass fed) to amazing fruits and now this, the Finger Lime.

Not ALL meat is created EQUAL

The alarming state of grain-fed meat we face today all started when cows stopped grazing in the pastures where they would eat anything green found in the wild (i.e. what they would eat naturally). As soon as humans altered their diet we started to notice unhealthy practices take place. Comparing grass-fed vs grain-fed is like looking at two completely different foods! Seriously, they are NOT even in the same realm.

Carnitas Recipe with Pork Butt/Shoulder

This carnitas recipe is simple and perfect for entertaining. I love how you can serve it with different homemade toppings like my pumpkin salsa or pickled veggies. Don’t be scared of lard. Fat is good for us!
