How This Site Works

This is a free website that was started by two great friends who after 4 kids, both struggle with the daily challenge of living healthy, especially eating right. We have found that the best way to stick to our goals is to chat about what we are doing and what we have found works for us with healthy eating. We decided to start this website to put all of our favorite healthy recipes in one spot and hopefully find lots more healthy recipes from all of you. Together we know we can live a healthier life!
