Happy *almost* New Year! I hope you had a lovely holiday season. I’m feeling super grateful and incredibly excited about what 2024 will bring.
This time last year I officially announced that I started writing a cookbook, and this time next year you’ll already have it in your hands (omg). This year is going to be a wonderful, epic, wild ride and I’m so happy to have you all on this journey with me.
In the meantime, what better way to kick off the new year than with 31 healthy recipes to cook in January? This month I included plenty of vegetarian & plant-based options to really pack in those veggies, plus a focus on protein & nutrients to fuel your health journey wherever it’s taking you.
If you’ve been wondering what to cook in January, get ready for tons of meal prep ideas to make cooking a breeze plus plenty of healthy snacks & treats to enjoy all month long.
