Many people would list their  favorite restaurant as a super snazzy, special occasion place. My fave? Panera… hands down!  Well okay, in all honestly I have a serious adoration for Colonel Sanders and his 11 herbs and spices, but Kentucky Fried Chicken isn’t something that aligns with my trim waist line. There aren’t many places you can go that offer delicious and nutritious food that’s also fast and convenient. My fave Panera dishes are low calorie and low fat yet packed with healthy...

Looking back at all of the recipes I've shared, I realized I don't have any meals for breakfast! Breakfast is so important because it provides the body and brain with fuel after an overnight fast - that's where its name originates, breaking the fast!  Without breakfast you are effectively running on empty, like trying to start the car with no gas! Here is a quick and easy recipe for a delicious banana wheat pancake with blackberry compote.             Banana Buckwheat Pancakes & Com...

After hearing many of my friends in television and film from New York and LA swear by veganism for optimal health and beauty, I've decided to give it a shot myself. Here is a recipe for a vegan paella, made with brown rice, artichoke hearts, and peas. This is a hearty version of the traditional Spanish-favorite and one of my favorites for healthy comfort food on a cold day. It's filling and nutritious while packed with protein and turmeric, a key component of my supplement regimen.   Follow th...

                      As many of you know, Blair loves beauty. He loves beauty just as much as he loves his coffee.   Every morning, millions of people can't get into their daily routine without having a nice cup of coffee. It taste great, it perks you up, and for many, (you know who you are) you are not to be even spoken to until you had your first cup.   But some people are taking a whole new twist on the joys of coffee and implementing it in their beauty regime. Now, coffee c...

                        Blair loves salads! What a lot of people don't understand about salads is that just because you are eating one, doesn't always mean that you're actually eating healthy. Salads can be loaded with carbs in their dressings, fried chicken is often used in salads (so not healthy either) and people down right use the wrong portions in their meat to veggie ratio.   This salad is a perfect dish as it is low in sodium and carbs, high in protein and has quick prep t...

The weather is changing signaling nature's transition from the heat and humidity we know (especially in Georgia) as summer into Fall and then into Winter. Typically joining this cool off in temps is an ushering in of cold, flu and more unwelcome viral guests. Nearly every member of Blair’s Team has already dealt with some sort of funk... We blame Pete for bringing it into the office as he was the first to be sick and we affectionately termed it "Petebola" from there on out. ;)
