Now I am sharing this recipe with y’all so you can make it too!

Rich delicious creamy and chocolatey… it’s got my name all over it!

So over the weekend I decided to give Black Bean Brownies a second chance… the first time I made them they were impressive that they didn’t take like beans and how easy they were to make but they weren’t as fudgy as I had wanted them to be.

Sure they were grain free and refined sugar free and dairy free… but they weren’t AMAZING.

In 2011 I graduated with a BS in Nutrition and Health Sciences. All my teachers told me to start working in a clinic or a hospital, but that didn’t sound like me... I wanted to encourage people to eat healthy food!


Problem - healthy food in the eyes of Nutrition is brown rice, steamed broccoli, and baked chicken... sounded boring and unsustainable to me! How was I supposed to get people to eat that all the time?? BORRRING!

✨ YOU ARE ENOUGH ✨

✨ YOU ARE ENOUGH ✨


For years I didn’t feel like I was enough. I felt I always missing that ‘it’ factor. 
I felt I wasn’t worthy of great love, making more money, getting the job I wanted, or capable doing soulful work. Even though I wanted all these things so deeply, there was a part of me that said I wasn’t enough. It wasn’t meant for me. That was for other people... 

I felt I wasn’t:


special enough, 
lucky enough, 
connected enough, 
smart enough,
pretty enough,
________ enough.
