THIS Friday, November 6th....

My healthy holiday dessert e-cookbook, Smart Cookie, will be released and I am sooooo excited to fill your homes with the smells and tastes and beauty of these festive treats!

What's unique about my cookbook?

It is FULL of only dessert recipes (42 in total)
All recipes are free of: gluten, dairy, and refined sugar
It's an instant download which means within minutes of when you purchase it, you can pick which dessert you want to try first -- no waiting for shipping!
You'll get 2 versions -- a pretty, picture-filled one and a more printer-friendly version with no pictures. Either one will print well, but you choose whether you wanna tear through your color ink for this book or not. ;-)
You'll find ALL the festive tastes in this one book: chocolate, hazelnut, gingerbread, apple, pumpkin, cranberry, etc.
Plenty of items to bake, but also stovetop, slow cooker, and no bake options!

What to do now? Hop on my email list and get excited. When this e-cookbook is available (on Friday), you'll receive another email from me with the direct link to purchase.

What's your favorite holiday dessert? Leave a comment here to let me know and I'll enter you into my drawing to win a free copy. Email responses will be pooled with social media responses and I will announce a winner on Friday (and contact you via email if you win)!

XO,

P.S. This HIIT and Core workout I shared recently on instagram ended up being my most 'popular' post to date. I figured I'd share it with you here in case you missed it. Make sure you read the caption about breath work while you're there.

Do you LOVE pesto? But also HATE the way you feel after eating dairy like me (lactose intolerant over here)?

I've got an awesome recipe for you to try today!

Paleo Pesto Sauce
Servings depend on how generously you spoon your pesto onto everything. ;-)

Ingredients:

1 cup raw walnuts, shelled (not roasted)
3 cups fresh basil leaves
2 cups baby spinach
4 cloves garlic
Zest and juice from 1 large lemon
2/3 cup olive oil (feel free to swap out for walnut or macadamia oil)
3/4 tsp. sea salt
2 Tbsp. nutritional yeast

Directions:

1. Place all ingredients in a food processor or high-speed blender and blend until well-combined.

2. Store in an airtight glass jar in the fridge.

Now I'd love to hear from YOU!!! What do you enjoy about my blogs? What would you like to see more of? I sit down to post blog posts with the goal to provide help, resources, and inspiration. How am I doing?

If you can leave a comment and let me know how I can be of greater service to you, I'd really appreciate it! In fact, I'll do one pushup for every response that I get between here AND my newsletter responses. :-)

In good health,
Tara
