The new way to nourishment and healthy living is through letting go of unrealistic expectations and boundaries. Eating to sustain our bodies is just one piece of wellness puzzle, and these swinging virtue-meets-vice recipes showcase this.
In a world and community where “perfect” health and eating can overrule our daily lives, it can be easy to slip into self-doubt in terms of what we’re eating. Eating for pleasure can encompass ultra-healthy bites, such as a crispy seasonal apple just picked from the tree, or super-decadent ones, such as a second slice of cake at a birthday party. Balance, living, and nourishing our bodies and minds is not an all-or-nothing endeavour. It’s a marathon that includes peaks and valleys. There are times when we eat for health, and there are times we eat for fun. That’s life, and it’s worth every morsel. With these recipes for healthy indulgences, we're taking on “off limits” meals and ingredients.
