Stop buying hummus at the store 🌱
It legit takes 5 ingredients and 2 minutes. And it tastes so much better.

Homemade Hummus Recipe:
• 1 can chickpeas (unsalted), drained + rinsed
• 1 clove garlic (add more if you love garlic)
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice
• 2 Tbsp tahini
• ¼ cup olive oil
• ¼ tsp sea salt
• 2 ice cubes (trust me — makes it extra smooth ✨)

Blend until creamy. Adjust salt + lemon to your taste.

Make it your own:
Add cumin or smoked paprika.
Blend in roasted red peppers or spinach.
Top with chili crunch, olive oil, or herbs.
There’s no right way — just what tastes good in your home 🫶

Fats aren’t the enemy — they’re the fuel. 💪
From butter to avocado oil, it’s all about knowing when to turn up the heat (and when to chill).
Swipe to cook smarter. 🌿

Five years ago, I was diagnosed with bipolar — and it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me.
I’m sharing my story because I believe openness breaks stigma and helps us all see mental health in a more human, hopeful way.

If you or someone you love lives with bipolar disorder, I hope this reminds you that balance, understanding, and growth are all possible. 🤍

October’s here 🍂 which means it’s time for some seriously good seasonal produce. Think mushrooms, artichokes, pomegranates, and more making their way onto our plates this month.

Eating with the seasons isn’t just tasty — it supports your body’s natural rhythms and keeps meals fresh and inspiring. Save this post for your next grocery trip! 🎃
