This is a riff on plantain maduros. I have had a plantain in the fruit basket for so long that it was super ripe and I needed to do something with it stat. Since I already had the oven on for something else (I think I was roasting sweet potatoes) I decided to mash it up and bake it. I added 3 tbsp coconut oil and a pinch of salt and smooshed it up with a fork until it was mostly pureed but still lumpy. Then I spread it on a parchment paper lined baking… Read more >
I made this up and it was amazing so I’m actually posting A RECIPE for you guys! I’m not super sure but I think it’s paleo and Whole30, in addition to being packed with veggies. It is SO EASY.

I don’t even remember what these yellow ones are?? New jar of nut butter! Ignore the gymnastics fall schedule under there. I didn’t realize how distracting it was when I was taking the… Read more >
With Stroller Strides. Ok, I promise I’ll stop waxing poetic about this amazing group after this. I only got the once a week membership, but here I am two weeks in and I want to go ALL THE TIME. I went twice the first week I joined, and now twice again this (second) week…soooo let’s do the math. One extra $10 class each week adds up to enough to tip me over into the unlimited category. So clearly I should just buy the unlimited pass and go all the time. Except that the only reason… Read more >
