2019 is here and to kick-start the new year, I’m sharing my Favorite Healthy…ish Recipes. I’ve included healthy recipes for everything from breakfast, to lunch, to dinner, to dessert. And each and every one of them is delicious. Let me know which recipe is your favorite?
Did you know that the most googled words on New Year’s Day are healthy recipes, diets, and detox? It seems everyone has the same thing on their minds this time of year, getting back to a healthy lifestyle. Trust me, I get. I tend to go all out for the holidays (and I don’t regret it even a little). December is indulgent, but January tends to be our month of clean (but delicious) eating.
I’m excited to be kicking off HBH’s 3rd year of “Healthy January”. I can’t wait to share brand new recipes that are good for us, but also just GOOD food. You guys know me, I don’t believe in diets. But I do believe in eating non processed food with plenty of color, healthy whole grains, and of course, a little cheese…everything in moderation. Life is balance, you know?
This month I’ll be sharing plenty of healthy soups, salads, easy dinners (pizza and pasta still included), and healthy desserts. Before we dive into the brand new recipes, I want to share some of my favorites from this past year. My hope is that these recipes will help to inspire you to actually move forward with your plans for healthy eating in the new year.
Have a very Happy Healthy New Year! See you all in 2019!
