As you can tell, I’m far
from a fancy healthy food chef. If there’s something that can be thrown into
the oven or crockpot, it’s got my name written all over it.

Now that it’s fall, my
excuse is…. “it’s seasonal” lol but the truth is that whether it’s fitness or
nutrition, if there is something that can help us see results with less time
and effort, I’m all about it. Part of creating a happy, healthy life is having
the time to enjoy it!

With that said, a slow
cooker is a staple in my home this fall ((it’s so seasonal, right ;))

This apple-infused pulled
pork is going to be a dish I make again and again. It can easily be paired with
roasted veggies, on top of a hearty bread, or enjoyed as is!

Lauren,
Can you classify all of these you've been posting during the fit for fall challenge as "recipes" so they're appear on that page when you click on the tab "recipes" on your homepage? I was looking for the kale topping you put on fish and has to click older posts quite often before I found it, but it would have been so much easier to find on the recipes page. This way it'll be more accessible for in the future!
Thanks!
Absolutely! Actually, the entire website is in the process of getting a major facelift so very soon, everything will be organized for you all! Lots of behind the scene work currently going on so I apologize for the the "mess" right now lol 🙂
