Happy Sunday! 💕 When I first started following a paleo lifestyle, it was really difficult for me to find really clean sausage and meat products at the grocery store. Chorizo was something I was really missing out on because most chorizo brands are filled with unnecessary ingredients like sugar and other fillers and additives. 🚫 When I came across @mulayssausage products, including their chorizo, I was beyond excited! Finally, a sausage company that really cares about the quality of their products and really sticks to using simple ingredients to make their sausage! 👏🏽 Plus, all their products are Whole30 compliant! Know what they just recently launched last week? MEATBALLS! I am a week late announcing their new product (🤦🏽‍♀️) but I am beyond excited to give them a try! Just like their other products, they are made with real, simple ingredients and will perfectly replace the ground beef in my simple meat sauce recipe! 🍝 I honestly am OBSESSED with all things Mulay’s! Y’ALL ARE THE BEST! 🙌🏽

Happy Saturday friends! 💕 I don’t know about y’all, but I sure do love a good sauce. My boyfriend and I have been LOVING their new line of sauces! 🌶 These @yellowbirdsauce organic sauces contain only a few simple ingredients along with zero added sugars. This makes them 100% Whole30 compliant! They are seriously FULL of amazing flavor! A few dishes I top with these sauces are egg scrambles, homemade tacos, and homemade (even store bought) Chipotle bowls. 🤤 We also have the sriracha sauce, but haven’t gotten the chance to try it. I will keep y’all posted when I do, but I bet it’s just as delicious as these yummy sauces! 😋 I found these at my local @wholefoods and highly recommend if y’all are looking for flavorful sauces made with simple ingredients and no added sugars! 🙌🏽

Happy Wednesday! 💕 This is my second week using the Cook Once Eat All Week cookbook by Cassy Joy at @fedandfit for my meal prep needs. This book is AMAZING! 🙌🏽 I love that she also includes paleo, dairy-free, and grain-free substitutions for her recipes. This picadillo recipe was part of the meal prep for last week and OH MA GAWD. 🤤 This recipe also turned out to be Whole30 compliant. It took me no time at all to put together because the picadillo sauce, ground beef, and cubed potatoes were all prepped during the weekend! All I needed to do was dump everything in a pan, let it reheat, adjust seasoning, add in some chopped cilantro, and that’s it! 👏🏽 I decided to top it all off with some avocado. 🥑 YUM!

Happy Tuesday! 💕 I’m usually really good at remembering to pack my lunch with me to take to work. I got so distracted this morning with something else that I totally forgot my lunch! 🙈 Luckily the place I work at is only literally like 1 or 2 minutes away from a Whole Foods. Seriously such a life saver for me! 🙌🏽 You know what’s even better about this location? They have a Taqueria that sells tacos with a grain-free option, which uses @sietefoods almond flour tortillas! 👏🏽 I ended up getting 3 tacos using almond flour tortillas with chicken, pico de gallo, jicama slaw, cilantro, and guac on the side. 🌮 I also decided to get a @lovesuja probiotic watermelon juice and OMG. 🍉 If you’re an Amazon prime member, you get 50% off Suja drinks! Everything really hit the spot! 🤤

Happy Monday! 💕 I don’t know about y’all, but I love a good Starbucks drink every once in a while. Are their dairy-free milk options the cleanest? No. Am I going to let that stop me from enjoying a drink every so often? No. I do believe in having a clean lifestyle, but I also believe in balance. I think balance is important for sticking with a healthy lifestyle. Having too many restrictions makes it difficult to do that and may lead to things like food guilt! 🚫 When I do go to Starbucks, I usually order an unsweetened strawberry green tea iced tea with a splash of coconut milk and some strawberries. 🍓I have been LOVING this combo lately! IT’S THE BEST! 🤤 If you aren’t into the super sweet drinks, you’ll love this combo too! 👏🏽

*GROCERY HAUL* Happy Tuesday! ✨ This week I decided to take on week 4 of @fedandfit’s Cook Once Eat All Week cookbook! The base ingredients for the meal prep this week are ground beef, broccoli, and gold potatoes. All the recipes this week look AMAZING! We’re having some bacon burgers with roasted broccoli and roasted potato wedges today and I can’t wait. 🤤 Most of the groceries I bought were for the meal prep on Sunday. The @sietefoods almond flour tortillas, @vitalfarms eggs, and @twrgrassfedbeef sausages were all for breakfast tacos, which my bf helped me with this weekend (he’s the best!). 🌮 I also bought some @culinayogurt dairy-free yogurt to keep at work for whenever I need a snack. They’re so good!! I spotted the new @cappellos Italian sausage grain-free pizza and OMG! 🤤 Y’all gotta try it out if you come across it! 🍕

Happy Wednesday! 💕 I’m currently dreaming of this delicious spread we had last week on Friday! 🤤 The sweet bf treated me to my absolute favorite restaurant here in San Antonio called Whiskey Cake to celebrate receiving my master’s degree. He’s the best! 😍 Y’all, it’s sooooo dang good! 🙌🏽 We ended up ordering the local goat cheese fondue as our appetizer, along with a mint julep for him and a wabbit smash for me.🍹 For our entrees, he got the duck breast and I got the chicken and cheese melt. Omg y’all. The sandwich was MASSIVE, but was ridiculously good. 🥪 I only ended up being able to eat half of a half, gave the other half to my bf, and took the rest of the other half back home for him to have the next day. For dessert we had their strawberry shortcake! 🍓 Everything was amazing! If you have a Whiskey Cake in your area, I highly recommend! ✨ On a side note, I used to struggle with enjoying myself at restaurants like this. I used to punish myself in some way when I’d veer off eating paleo. I’d workout way more, eat less, skip meals, and would just talk negative about myself. I’m so glad that I’ve gotten to this point where I don’t feel guilt anymore! I do follow a paleo lifestyle 80-90% of the time, but like to enjoy myself when I feel it’s worth it. This was one of those worth it times!

*GROCERY HAUL* Happy Monday! 💕 Lately, I’ve been totally loving the Amazon Prime Now @wholefoods grocery pickup! I used to question why people would use it, but omg. I definitely save money by grocery shopping this way! 💵 Most of my grocery shopping was from Whole Foods, but I also stopped by at Natural Grocers and Walmart to get a few things. At Walmart, I decided to grab some paleo-friendly freezer meals to have on hand! I bought the Colorado hash from @grandcestors, the @beetnikfoods organic beef chili and sweet potato, and a @baseculture nutty pumpkin bread loaf that tastes AMAZING! 🤤 I only got some bananas at Natural Grocers. Everything else I picked up at Whole Foods! There’s not a whole lot of produce in my haul, but that’s because I’ve got a lot leftover in my fridge! Also, have you all noticed the @newbarnorganics packaging?! It comes with more servings per bottle now! 🙌🏽 I hope y’all are having an awesome Monday! ✨

Pre-dinner pic! ✨ Happy Saturday! 💕 My boyfriend and I are finally going to dinner at my favorite restaurant here in San Antonio called Whiskey Cake! It’s seriously soooo good! 🤤 Yesterday I earned my master’s degree in kinesiology, so we’re going out and celebrating! 👩🏽‍🎓 Luckily I’m wearing this flowy dress to allow room for stuffing my face! 😂
