A Healthy Hint’s Gift Guide

Why is gift giving so stressful in our adult years? It feels impossible to shop for friends and family, knowing they can buy what they want, and it can be slightly overwhelming trying to figure out every item outside of the go-to gift Target or Nordstrom card. We are not knocking that and will go the gift card route too, but wanted to spark a little inspiration. We rounded up a few of our favorite ideas to make gift shopping a little easier this year, and tried to tie them all to mental or physical health in some way. Consider this list itself good for your mental health by taking away a little stress… We had to tie this post back to health somehow, obviously.  Continue reading →

Ginger Molasses Cookies

If pumpkin is considered to be the staple comfort flavor of fall, ginger takes the gold medal for comfort flavor of winter. We were really excited about this recipe and post for a few reasons! These cookies are one of our favorite holiday treats, and there is something about the fusion of ginger and molasses that just tastes Christmas-cozy. Ginger is a flavor we did not fully embrace until adulthood. We wised up, and now we each keep a bottle of pickled ginger in our fridge, ground ginger on the shelf, and ginger tea in the pantry. Bear with us as we dive into why we do this, and try to convert you into a ginger fanatic, too.

Casserole. Was this a word that struck fear into your heart as a child? Why is it that we associate this word with some suspect looking, mushy nightmare from our youth, even if our grandmothers DID make it with love?

Egg White Cups

To be perfectly clear, our lives are really not THAT busy. We do not have children, we aren’t married, we do not have a second job, and we do not have a ton of obligations outside of work, A Healthy Hint and our social lives. However, we are still people who love to maximize our time, and one of the best ways we know how to do that is by meal prepping our food every week. We usually prep our lunches and dinners, but we have found we can take this life hack a step further and meal prep our breaksfast, too. We want to share a few ideas with you on these easy yet delicious Egg White Bites.  Continue reading →

Pecan Pumpkin Pie Bars

A true coming of age sign is when you learn that you love nuts in dessert. They give extra texture, they add more flavor, and they make every bite a little more delicious.
