clean food for my messy life
If you have been keeping up with me at all lately, you might know that I am wee bit obsessed with avocado anything right now (and probably forever).
I honestly can’t help it. There’s just something so perfect about them that they keep finding their way into every category of food… They are in my smoothies, my salads, my burrito bowls, my enchiladas… and now they are in my dressings.
Y’all… I… Can’t… STOP….
Nobody likes dry chicken, right?

First of all, they are ENTIRELY delicious. Second, they are super good for you- even more than people realize. Yes, they have all the great fats that your body needs and promote good healthy cholesterol, but did you know that they are also loaded with other benefits? “Like what,” you ask.
Well, they have even more potassium than a banana, they are loaded with fiber, and if that’s not enough for you, they are also extremely rich in vitamin K and folate….
Peace, love, peanut butter and chocolate.
That’s pretty much it.. the worldly cure to many problems.
I have been wanting to work on ratios for honey, so I felt like this was a great opportunity to figure out what works and what doesn’t. I don’t personally feel the need to use honey instead of sugar in baked goods because, well, it just doesn’t make a difference to me if the “sugar substitute” will raise my blood sugar just as much as the sugar itself.
