Hi my friend!

This week, I'm sharing warm, cheesey recipes that will nourish you and quench all of your winter cravings!

NEW this week:

H ow to find the right supplements for YOU + my favorite brands
Our 5-star 30-Minute Loaded Taco Skillet
A new breakfast recipe that tastes like dessert
And paleo "Everything Bagel" Cauliflower Rolls

We wrapped the week up with our VERY-FIRST installment of our brand new Q+A series: Clean Living Conversations! This has been a little passion project of mine for months now, and I couldn't be happier to finally see it coming to fruition! In each interview, you'll have the opportunity to take a peek behind the curtain of some aspect of the wellness world. I've invited some of the people I most love to learn from and work with to join us for this series. I can't wait to introduce you to them!

We kicked off Clean Living Conversations with Gabrielle McGrath- a registered dietitian nutritionist and a Nutrition and Mindset Coach. Gabby is also the founder of the amazing Wellpower Method, a program that allows individuals to stop dieting and restricting, find peace with food, fuel their body, unlearn unwanted behaviors and embody new ones, and reach their sustainable weight loss goals. Can't wait to hear what you think! Get excited for more to come.

Lastly, I'm showing you what I will be planning to make this week for the #LCLChallenge! Want to participate but haven't start yet? THAT'S OKAY! Start this week. :)

WHAT YOU MISSED THIS WEEK

The Real Deal With Supplements
Instead of getting into the nitty gritty of how I supplement for my needs, I want to turn the focus in this post to how you can find the supplements that will work best for you — and, maybe even more importantly, how you can make sure you're vetting supplements for quality before you start taking them.

Easy Taco Skillet
A quick and simple dinner to throw together, this Easy Taco Skillet will be loved by everyone! It's been a family favorite of mine for years, and I know your family is going to love it too. Ground turkey is cooked together with spices, loads of veggies and beans, and then the whole thing is topped with cheese for the ultimate taco-inspired meal.

Espresso Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding
Creamy, hearty, and filling, this Coffee and Chocolate Chia Pudding is a healthy make-ahead breakfast or snack that tastes a bit decadent! With a bit of caffeine to wake you up and all the nutritional benefits of chia seeds, this is an awesome start to the day. It's vegan and paleo-friendly, too!

Paleo "Everything Bagel" Cauliflower Rolls
A simple-to-make side dish or snack, these 'Everything Bagel' Cauliflower Rolls are where healthy meets delicious! Using simple ingredients, and our favorite vegetable we like to magically transform, these rolls have been a fan-favorite for years!

THE COOKBOOK
In stores everywhere books are sold since 2016!

One Amazon Review: "My favorite cookbook of all time! It's my weekly go to, my kids and husband approve of EVERYTHING I've made from Lexi's book which is no small feat as they are a tough crowd! The recipes are easy to make and understand but actually taste good and coming from someone who ordered every paleo/gluten free/dairy free cookbook on the planet when we made the switch for our family about a year ago, I can tell you this is the ONE and only book I consistently use (and use every single week!). I'm officially obsessed. You won't be disappointed!"
