Why did you start your \u00a0food blog?<\/strong>\u00a0I actually started my Instagram account first (@fantasticallyfit) as a way to share recipes and hold myself accountable. Then, after a few months, and at the request of some of my followers, I started FitFunandFantastic.com!<\/p>\n

How would you describe your approach to eating\/health?\u00a0<\/strong>My eating approach is focused on intuitive eating. I listen to my body. If I am hungry I eat and if I want candy I have it. That being said I try to primarily eat wholesome ingredients that are unprocessed and rich in nutrients. I also believe that eating healthy does not mean you have to live in the kitchen! Most of my recipes take less than 10 minutes to prep.<\/p>\n

Have you always had an interest in healthy food or did it come later in life?<\/strong>\u00a0I definitely was not always this interested in healthy eating. My main sources of food before I taught myself how to cook were: cereal, pizza, and fast food. Until about 3 years ago the only thing I knew how to cook was a box of mac n\u2019 cheese!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What is your favorite ingredient to use in the kitchen?<\/strong>\u00a0Whoa, I have so many favorites, but, some of my staples are: nutritional yeast, old fashioned oats, peanut flour, protein powder, chia seeds, pumpkin puree, coconut flour, vanilla, butter and maple extracts, non-fat greek yogurt, berries, cottage cheese, eggs, and unsweetened almond milk.<\/p>\n

Has blogging changed the way you view food and cooking?<\/strong>\u00a0Not really, just that I have to try and make my food look a lot prettier then I would if I were just eating it.<\/p>\n

Favorite recipe to date?<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cCheesy\u201d Crusted Jalapeno Popper Chicken<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
