Healthy Homemade Granola
The other day on Instagram (you can follow me at “taylietot”) I posted a picture of this delicious homemade granola I made from a recipe I found on 100daysofrealfood.com.

Craving Much?
While browsing the fitness section on Pinterest, I found this amazing chart that explains your cravings. Sometimes a craving for chocolate or the urge to overeat may be environmental, meaning boredom, lack of sleep, stress, etc., but at other times it could be due to a nutrient we are lacking.

Chicken Cashew Lettuce Wraps
I went to NYC this Christmas and discovered my new favorite restaurant, Philippe. It is literally the most amazing Asian food you could possibly ever eat.
