My skin journey (cringe @ how that sounds) has been a god damn roller coaster. I’ve pretty much had acne since the age of like 12 ish. It’s fluctuated a lot and I’ve experienced all different types of acne along the way (hormonal, cystic, blackheads, whiteheads, the works). For more on the “journey” check out…
Vegan Mozz Pesto Press
A few weeks ago, Little Northern Bakehouse reached out to me to participate in their holiday recipe theme “how to eat for me” during the holiday season. After studying nutrition in school, my own experiences with dieting and food elimination, “eating for me” during the holidays has changed a lot. It used to be 100%…
Hi Life, I Guess You Don’t Suck
In April, I graduated college and dove into post-grad life. At the time, that consisted mainly of watching countless shows and movies on Netflix, bingeing Handmaid’s Tale, blowing graduation gift money on new clothes, and straight chilling. No job searching. No apartment hunting. No real adulting. The first month and a half of this were…
Zucchini PipBites
A few weeks ago, PipSnacks sent me four of their Pipcorn flavors to try: Sea Salt, Kettle, Truffle, and Gingerbread. Let me just say, it was hard to save the popcorn for recipes…because I could not stop eating it! The miniature popcorn pieces are absolutely delectable. Made with real ingredients, this is one of the…
January Workout Routine
2017 was a rough year for my fitness life. I injured myself in February, and used that as an excuse to never really get back on a schedule or in a routine. On top of that, my summer and fall semesters were entirely overwhelming, I was traveling a lot, and I honestly haven’t adjusted yet…
I’m Not Vegan. I’m Jenna.
Three and a half years ago, I started this blog. I had just started a vegan diet, cold turkey. I was a college freshman, living alone in an apartment at a school I felt no attachment to. I thought I knew a lot about diet and health. I was a statistics major. Dear lord, how…
Chive Mashed Cauli Potatoes
No matter the season, no matter the occasion, if potatoes are on the menu, they better be the star! I am a self-proclaimed starch addict, and my body is mostly composed of potatoes. Mashed, roasted, grated, scalloped, I want them all. This year for Thanksgiving, I thought I would take a step outside the…
So I Noticed You’re a Nutrition Student at UNF…
So many of my followers have reached out to me over this year asking all about my major, where I’m studying, and what it’s all like to be a nutrition student. I absolutely LOVE that you guys are reaching out and asking questions; engaging is my favorite part of Instagram! Here, I’ll be answering some…
Wild Friends Super Butter Energy Bites
Last month, I had the extreme pleasure of meeting the lovely humans behind the Wild Friends brand. I have been exclusively using their nut butters for the past two years or so, and they’re absolutely scrumptious. So much so, that I refuse to eat any other brands! Well, Keeley and Erika are absolute GEMS. They…
Lemon Garlic Banza
For the month of October, Banza is hosting a #BanzaPlus5 recipe event. The challenge? Create a yummy dish using their lentil pasta (huge protein punch!) and 5 other ingredients. My first contribution is this amazing dish I frequently made during my freshman year of college… lemon garlic pasta with arugula! It’s refreshing, light, and nutritious….
