Clean, Kosher, and Delicious
So I recently finished my first box of needles for my insulin pen. I think 100 days is an appropriate time to reflect. Wow, my diabetes has been such a journey for me. Going from convenience grazer to meal prepper has been a huge step …
Hi Everyone! So the results are in! After over 3 months of hard work, I finally get to see how my body is reacting to all the changes — the dieting, the food prep, the exercise classes, the intermittent fasting, the medications, the insulin injections… …

This week’s meals were a mix of wins and real-life moments. I’ve been paying close attention to my fasting blood sugar, and I’m so encouraged that it’s been looking good every other morning — definitely a sign that some of the changes I’ve made are working. That said, I had a rough day midweek, and you’ll probably notice it in my food choices. Even though I stayed within my “healthy” framework, it was definitely more about comfort than intention that day.
This week I also meal prepped breakfast so all my breakfasts are the same this week. They are all high protein/lower carb chia oatmeal. Once I perfect the recipe I’ll post it.
All in all, I’m proud of how I handled the week. Life happens, hard days happen, and it’s okay if our food reflects that sometimes. The fact that I still reached for nourishing options, even when I wasn’t feeling my best, shows how far I’ve come. Looking forward to seeing how next week goes — and hoping for a few more of those good blood sugar mornings!

This past week was a whirlwind — between a hospital appointment for my son and the kids heading back to school, it felt like there was barely a moment to catch my breath. And yes… I may have indulged in one too many granola bars …

Hi Everyone, This week I began experimenting with intermittent fasting, and so far it’s been making a noticeable difference—especially in lowering my morning blood sugar levels. While I did enjoy a few keto cookies and a slice of cake here and there (balance is key!), …

Hi Everyone,
This week was a tough one, I won’t lie. Between back-to-back trips, lots of meals eaten out of the house, and the general chaos of life, I felt super uninspired in the kitchen. Cooking didn’t excite me, and planning felt like too much. Add some stress into the mix, and next thing you know—I was reaching for keto cookies more often than I’d like to admit. Still, I did my best to stay somewhat grounded and make choices that didn’t throw me completely off track. Here’s what I ate this week—real, imperfect, and honest.
Some weeks are full of fresh meals, creative ideas, and a sense of balance. This wasn’t one of those weeks—but that’s okay. Life happens, and food doesn’t have to be perfect to be nourishing. I’ve had my share of stress-eating and convenience meals, but I’m choosing to give myself grace and reset with intention. Here’s to finding my rhythm again in the week ahead.
This past week wasn’t my best when it comes to eating. I reintroduced sugar… then some carbs… and before I knew it, I was reaching for the whole wheat spelt cookies I baked for the kids. I knew I shouldn’t—I have diabetes and I’m well …
This Apple Strudel Chia Pudding is basically cozy in a jar. I created it when I was craving something sweet and cinnamony but still clean and Whole30-friendly. It tastes like dessert, but it’s packed with fiber, healthy fats, and warm apple-cinnamon goodness. It’s a make-ahead …

Hi Everyone
Here’s another week of clean eating in the books! This week was a little different because of Tisha B’Av. While I did eat on Sunday, it didn’t feel right to share those meals, so ill be starting this week’s recap from Monday. I hope this gives you some inspiration for simple, nourishing, and mostly Whole30-style meals!
*The ice cream was Booja-Booja Chocolate Salted Caramel Ice Cream, and the only non Whole30 compliant ingredient was organic cane sugar. It was sooo delicious. And a nice treat
I got mine at Nitzat Haduvdevan. Check it out Below!

Omg! If you’ve never made your own mayo before, you have to try this recipe. It’s creamy, delicious, and comes together in just minutes with 5 simple ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen. Once you taste fresh, homemade mayo, you’ll never want to …
