About me

Hi! I’m Jaclyn, a Holistic Nutritionist and foodie. Over the past few years, I have developed a deep appreciation and understanding of food, wellness and self-love. I know that no matter how much kale you eat, if you have a negative relationship with food and your body you won’t truly feel well. If you like kale and cocktails, then you are in the right place.

Remember at the beginning of this pandemic when ba

Remember at the beginning of this pandemic when banana bread was the hottest thing ever?! Everyone was making it (well that and sourdough 🥖). So now that Fall is right around the corner, it’s time to start baking some pumpkin bread 🎃. And this lovely loaf just happens to be gluten free and vegan. It’s also packed with fall flavours, easy and made in just one bowl (YES PLEASE!). Top it with some of my cashew spiced “buttercream” frosting and you’re in heaven. I had this for breakfast, as a snack and as dessert, so it’s also versatile too 😉. Check out the full recipe up on my blog now, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo!

Brown butter in cookies may just be the BEST thing

Brown butter in cookies may just be the BEST thing ever 😍. And when you switch that to @lees.provisions brown butter ghee, it’s even better #sponsored. So what is ghee? Ghee is a type of clarified butter that originates in India and has been used for thousands of years as a cooking oil and in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. It’s a staple food in South Asian households all across the world. Why do I love ghee? I love using @lees.provisions ghee for all types of recipes because it has an even richer taste than butter 👌🏻. It also has a high smoke point because the milk sugars (lactose) and proteins (casein) have been removed. And right now ‪until September 30th‬, @lees.provisions is offering 15% off all orders made from her site, just use the code JACLYN15 at checkout.

No more overcooked fish! One of the most common co

No more overcooked fish! One of the most common cooking questions people ask is usually about fish and seafood, specifically how to not overcook it. I remember someone even saying that I cook all the things they’re afraid to because they don’t want to spend the money on it and then overcook it. So here is a foolproof way to cook your salmon: the slow roast 😍. Cooked with a good pour of evoo + topped with all the citrus + onion + fennel + serrano pepper + thyme + flaky salt, this one pot meal is 👌🏻. And all it takes is about 35 minutes start to finish. I promise this way of cooking salmon results in buttery soft salmon you can cut with a spoon. The full recipe is now up on my blog, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo.

One bowl + 10 ingredients + 30 minutes! Yes please

One bowl + 10 ingredients + 30 minutes! Yes please 💯. These spicy zucchini fritters are super easy to make and such a great way to use up some of the zucchini you may have laying around. They’re vegan and gluten free too. Stack them high and serve with any type of dip you love. I like @motherraw ranch 🤤. Check out the full recipe up on my site now, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo.

Three words that bring a smile to my face - no not

Three words that bring a smile to my face - no not those although they’re nice 😉. I’m actually talking about these three words- slow cooked chicken 🍗. Because you know what those words mean? No more dry chicken. Can we be done with that already?! These slow cooked chicken thighs are cooked low and slow (90 minutes total) and then quickly seared after for that all important crispy skin. Combine this with some potatoes + jammy lemon + shallots + oregano + garlic + a good amount of evoo and you’re in foodie heaven 😍. This recipe is completely hands off and is ready in 90 minutes so you can do other important things while you wait, like crack open a bottle of wine 🍷. Check out the full recipe up on my site now, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo.

Foolproof steel cut oats for breakfast! These crea

Foolproof steel cut oats for breakfast! These creamy, chocolatey steel cut oats are the EASIEST way to make oats. Basically dump all the ingredients into your @instantpotofficial, set it and walk away. No stirring required 👌🏻. This means you can do other things in the morning, like sleep longer 😜. If you wanna get all fancy add some coconut whipped cream, cherries 🍒 and a couple squares of dark chocolate. It’s never too early for me to enjoy some chocolate 🍫😉. You can find the full how to up on my site now and enjoy these throughout the week because they’re great for meal prep too! Click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo to check it out 🍒🍫❤️.

And thanks for all the love on Sunday’s IG live, @shaynegold87 and I are gonna do it again this week! Stay tuned for what’s on the menu so you can cook with us, hint 👉🏻🌮🌮.

Feeling all kinds of nostalgia with this recipe ☺️. Creamy chicken marsala with mushrooms is one of the most comforting (and delicious) recipes. True story- this was the first real meal I learned how to make when I was in my 20s (boxed mac n cheese doesn’t count 😉). I’ve made it SO many times over the years and I always love sitting down to eat it. I’ve changed this recipe a bit from the original by using almond flour to coat the chicken and using cashew cream to replace the heavy cream. Promise it’s just as delicious tho 🤤. You can check out the full recipe up on my site now, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo!

I’d love to know, what was the first meal you learned how to make??

Five words that instantly bring a smile to your face - NO BAKE PEANUT BUTTER PIE! I don’t think I’ve ever had more requests to share a recipe after teasing this one last week. I wasn’t going to share it so soon but here she is! I’m pretty obsessed with how it turned out. It’s not overly sweet, rich but still light and SO much peanut butter. Plus, NO BAKE 🙌🏻🙌🏻. It’s also vegan, gluten free and grain free. If you can’t have peanuts, try it with sun butter instead! If you make it, lmk and tag me, I love seeing my recipes being made ☺️. The full recipe is up on my site now, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo 🥜. ENJOYYYYYY!

Hi!!! Welcome to some new faces around here, I’m so happy you’re here ☺️. It’s been a while since I’ve posted a photo of myself or done one of these posts so here I go! *i may be a little rusty haha*

I’m Jaclyn, a holistic nutritionist and foodie- hence the name: holistic foodie. I came up with this name about 7 years ago when I was just starting out in the nutrition world and in school. The whole reason behind creating it was to show how I like to blend my love of food with the holistic side of things. That means I love creating recipes that use quality ingredients but I’ll never sacrifice taste or flavour.
.
I follow an intuitive eating approach after too many years spent dieting, restricting foods and obsessing about my body and what was on my plate. When I first started my journey into holistic nutrition, I became obsessed with it in a very unhealthy way. I was scared to eat foods that weren’t highly nutrient dense or organic. Intuitive eating saved me. I approach food very differently now and I’ve learned to ditch dieting, forego terms like “clean eating” and eat all foods (YES, all foods). That doesn’t mean I eat all of the foods all the time and feel out of control, in fact, it’s the opposite. It means I have found a way to enjoy food, embrace an all foods approach and choose what feels best in that moment, no judgement.

I have a crazy bengal cat- adele who often steals the spotlight in my stories 😻😻.

Thanks for reading, following along and sticking with me. It truly means SO much to me 😘❤️. Tell me something about you in the comments 👇👇.

What’s a meal that brings back a happy memory? I

What’s a meal that brings back a happy memory? I have a few, one of them is this vegetarian rice and beans. Many, many years ago, I was vegetarian and my mom made this rice and beans recipe for me and it quickly became one of my favourites during that time. I think I had it at least once a week 😳😛. In truth, my poor mom had no idea what to make for her now vegetarian daughter and I didn’t know how to cook anything 😬. So a few weeks back I recreated that meal and it immediately brought me back to about 12 years ago and made me so happy. It also just so happened that I published it on what would have been her 65th birthday last week ❤️. And I just love when stuff like that happens, so happy birthday mom 😘, I think you’d be proud of how far I’ve come in terms of cooking 😉.
.
You can find the full recipe up on my site, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo. This can easily be made vegan if you omit the cheese or use a vegan cheese. Plus it’s made in one pot and perfect for meal prep too!

Reallyyyyy wishing I had a slice (or four) of this

Reallyyyyy wishing I had a slice (or four) of this savory galette with tomatoes, pesto, basil and nut ricotta. Seriously, can it just be summer forever?! Because I could get used to all the summer produce 😋. If you feel up to it, make some by heading to the link in my bio and send me a slice 😉. The full recipe is grain free too!
.
What’s your fav summer produce? Mine has to be peaches and tomatoes! Maybe I should combine the two somehow 😏🤔.

If you’re like me, you like everything with a little kick 🌶. And these crispy zucchini fritters are pan fried to perfection 👌🏻. Plus they’re made in just one bowl, with 10 ingredients, in about 30 minutes 💯. I love this recipe for using up the abundance of zucchini in the summer. Serve it with some @motherraw ranch dip for ultimate satisfaction. These babies are also grain free + vegan. You can find the full recipe up on my blog now, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo.

Roasting in season tomatoes may just be one of my favourite ways to enjoy them 😍. And this vegan creamy tomato sauce is packed with flavour and creaminess thanks to cashews 💯. You can meal prep this sauce for quick weeknight dinners. And then enjoy a big bowl of pasta any day of the week 🍝. Check out the full recipe up on my blog, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo.

Peach and cherry crisp for dessert (or breakfast!)

Peach and cherry crisp for dessert (or breakfast!). This crisp is SO good and easy as pie to make... although I dunno, pie isn’t really easy to make 😏🤷🏻‍♀️. All you need are 10 ingredients and the patience to let this crisp bake and cool before you eat it 😬. It’s low in sugar so it’s not too sweet for breakfast, and if you want it for dessert add a scoop of ice cream or coconut whipped cream. I’ve got the full recipe up on my blog now, just click the link in my bio and then tap on this photo. This is my fave way to enjoy stone fruits in the summer! I hope you enjoy it too ❤️.

Find yourself with an abundance of zucchini?! If s

Find yourself with an abundance of zucchini?! If so, try my zucchini chocolate cake. It’s gluten free + vegan friendly, plus it has hidden veggies in it that nobody would even notice 😏🤫. Top it off with a decadent chocolate coconut butter frosting and you’re in chocolate heaven. It’s the perfect way to use zucchini! I’ve got another zucchini recipe coming next week that you’re gonna LOVE ❤️.

Get ready for the tastiest way to eat carrots! These maple roasted carrots 🥕 are a staple for me, I’ve been making them this way for years. They’re the perfect combination of sweet and savory with roasted carrots, onion, jammy lemon and orange slices. Then drizzle a delicious miso sesame dressing all over. These make a perfect, quick and easy one pan side dish orrrr make it a full meal served on top of rice with some lentils or chickpeas 👌🏻.
