Foodie turned Holistic Nutritionist
If you know me, you know I love a matcha latte and especially love having it while relaxing with a good book or writing. I even wrote all about my love for other lattes in this post. So, now that summer is here, I wanted to create an iced version of my fave green tea so I could enjoy it on a hot summer day. Although, we haven’t had the nicest of days this summer, this iced matcha latte does serve its purpose when the temps do get hot enough….
Hi loves! I wanted to do a quick blog post (that of course is anything but short *facepalm*) on all the things I am loving lately. Mainly, this list is all of my favourite summer beauty essentials that I go back to again and again. I find that sometimes it can be overwhelming with all the things to buy, find and try. Especially with Amazon Prime Day this past week, it can feel like consumerism is taking over. So with that being said, I want to share the things I REALLYYYYY love and if you are looking to replace something, maybe this list can help inspire you.
I am so excited to be introducing Jessica Stopard, a Registered Holistic Nutritionist who is passionate about digestive wellness and smoothies, two things I am also really into as well. Jessica has written an in-depth post about the elimination diet and how it can be beneficial for you. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Of course if we were to look to Canada’s Food Guide, we could find some pretty interesting recommendations, but in my opinion this is not ideal. Today’s post is all about foods to lower blood sugar and how to structure your plate with protein, good fats, veggies and carbs. Although simple in nature, there are definitely foods that can lower your blood sugar and ones that cause it to spike….
With summer in full swing, everyone is worried about the sun and protecting themselves from the harmful effects of the sun. This means slathering on the sunscreen which can actually be more harmful than the sun itself, depending on the ingredients in it. So today, I really want to break it down for you and share my sunscreen reviews so that you can make an informed decision when it comes to how you protect yourself.

Now that grilling season is upon us, its time for all things BBQ, cold drinks and sitting on the patio. Summer is my favourite time of the year! I love the weather and the laid back nature, not to mention all the seasonal produce. These organic and easy turkey burgers are great for patio weather and are super simple to make, so you don’t need to sacrifice any time inside prepping them.
Welcome to another edition of What I Ate Monday aka Nutritionist Meals! I felt like getting a little fancy with my meals which was a nice surprise for me because as of late I haven’t been super creative in the kitchen. It all started when I picked up some local ramps (or wild leeks) at the market on Sunday….
Another Monday eats blog post for ya! Weekend meal prep completely saved the day for me and so I was able to pull together some great meals. I highly suggest taking some time and meal prepping ahead of time when you can so that you too can have endless meal and food options. What is better than having endless food options?! Not much…
