All inspiration to this hot/cold…
Macro Friendly Mondays — Chai Matcha Latte!
This time of year, I start to get excited about all the holiday flavors. I also find myself wanting tea some mornings, rather than coffee. I’ve raved multiple times about my beloved milk frother.

My Mother-In-Law (although I prefer to use the name Mother-In-Love 🥰) made this salad recently and it was SO good y’all! It’s her version of a ”3 bean salad” but with more veggies and a lower calorie marinade. My church small group loved it too, so I know it’s more than a healthy palate…
