I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite fruits is bananas. I mean I love all fruit, period, but I do have my favs and bananas are at the top. I eat at least one a day (sometimes two) in some form or another; raw, in a smoothie or on top of oatmeal. …[Continue Reading...]
We just realized a couple weeks ago that we haven’t had a giveaway here at CEC in quite a while, so this giveaway is long overdue! You can guess by the title and pic that we’re going to give one lucky winner a copy of The Best of Clean Eating cookbook. Unfortunately, we haven’t added…[Continue Reading...]
So JenniferE and I were just chatting and I happened to mention that I had cherries and almonds on my mind for some strange reason. I was going to throw some together in a smoothie with some banana and whatever else I could find in the kitchen and just see what I could come up…[Continue Reading...]
Since cutting sugar from my diet, and since I am unsure about the safety of artificial sweeteners (and therefore don’t use them), I have had to find some more natural ways to sweeten beverages (such as tea) and baked goods.

In trying to come up with some food ideas for my kids in order to get them more into actually enjoying eating clean and not just suffering through to please me, I decided to clean up an old recipe I had created for Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Bars. The old recipe called for things like canola…[Continue Reading...]
My oldest daughter loves the refried beans we get at our favorite Mexican restaurant, but she doesn’t get to go there as often as she’d like and so recently she’s been asking for me to somehow get her some refried beans. Now, I have yet to see a brand of refried beans in my local…[Continue Reading...]
I love bananas! They have to be one of my favorite fruits ever and I’m always looking for ways to use bananas because they’re always at the top of my grocery list every week. Today, instead of having my usual post-workout recovery drink after weight training, I decided to try yet another smoothie recipe using…[Continue Reading...]
