Healthy eating is becoming more and more a priority with people placing a higher value on health and wellness. Living a healthy, clean lifestyle no longer refers to just the physical effects of illness and disease, but rather an overall state of being including not only physical, but emotional and mental well being, and balance. If you are on the journey towards a healthier diet, there is no doubt that homemade food is the way to go ensuring the ingredients are healthier and avoiding processed foods.
With the holiday season in full swing, here is one of our favourite homemade recipes.
