Fall is a beautiful season and comes with a lot of different products for example pumpkins, winter squash, parsnips, pomegranates and many more. Apples are one of those fruits people have forgotten have a season, but they do and in the Northern Hemisphere, they’re harvested late summer through fall. One of the reasons why I decided to incorporate more apples into my smoothies, this time I combined it together with pumpkin, spices and a few more ingredients which all taste so delicious together.

Fall. It’s the time of the year when mother nature begins to change her colors and Starbucks starts reselling their famous Pumpkin Spice Latte. It is one of my favorite seasons and Pumpkin Spice Latte is definitely one of my fall drinks to go. I love rich and creamy flavors but unfortunately the famous drink from Starbucks contains a lot of calories and a ton of sugar. I decided to share a few tips on how to make this seasonal drink more healthier.

Buddha bowls are hearty, filling dishes made of various greens, raw or roasted veggies, beans and a healthy grain like quinoa or brown rice. Sometimes they also include toppings like nuts, seeds and dressings for added texture and flavor. After I’ve changed my lifestyle, especially my food choices, I needed to find a way where I can add different, healthy but also filling ingredients in a fast way together – my solution: Buddha Bowls. Easy to make, easy to pack and super delicious.

In my opinion, everyone who really wants a lifestyle change is able to get it. Not overnight or in a short amount of time, but if you start with small, sustainable changes you will be able to change the way you feel about food and the way you see food. No one should punish their bodies by restricting themselves or starving – instead we all should nourish, respect and love our bodies. I discussed the topic about lifestyle changes and nutritional changes with a friend a few days ago and thought it might be a good post and a starting point for anyone who is new or not really sure on where to start when it comes to nutrition.
