If you’re anything like me you score the internet for the best healthy living and food blogs, so I’ve simplified the process for you!.  I want to share with you my top health food blogs. Enjoy!

Deliciously Ella– Deliciously Ella is a site that I truly go to on a regular basis for recipes that I actually cook, in real life. I love going to aspirational sites that show beautiful pictures of perfectly crafted culinary art, but there’s nothing better than a real site you use evey day, like your mom’s favorite stained cookbook with the pages ripped and stuck together from the years of use. Well, to me, this site is both. Not only is Ella adorable and unintimidating but she feels like a girlfriend I would call up to borrow a recipe from. And her recipes manage to be healthy while looking scrumptious and  satisfying. Aside from the amazing food, Deliciously Ella has posts on happiness (one of my favorite topics), advice for living a healthy life, inspiration, fitness and beauty. She also has two cookbooks and an app. Ok, I kinda just want to be Ella, or be her best friend.

Sprouted Kitchen- The husband-wife team behind the Sprouted Kitchen bring a focus to healthy, seasonal foods, while maintaining a sophisticated yet rustic flare to their images and recipes. One of the things that Sprouted Kitchen does that sets them apart from other health food blogs is their food photography. It’s hard not to get inspired while poring over the images of their recipes. The vast recipe collection includes just about everything you’d want to find when trying to be the hostest-with-the-mostest, or just making a relaxing dinner at home.  Looking through their recipe archive makes me feel like I’m at an elegant yet cozy farm-to-table restaurant and I want to order everything! It’s websites like this that make me say to myself,  “I love food so much!!!”

Peachy Palate-Peachy Palate, run by Michelle, a nutritional health coach, has recipes as well as nutritional information and workouts (pretty much a one-stop-shop for everything healthy). The workout page is great for finding any workout you may be looking for. The recipe page is extremely well organized! You can search by cooking method, course, dietary needs, or key ingredient.  I love this because if you don’t know what you want to make but are looking for something specific like grain-free, vegetarian, or paleo, everything is sorted for you. My favorite is the section on nutrition. She has posts on pretty much everything you might want to know about nutrition. Definitely a great site for finding well-rounded health information and inspiration.

Cookie and Kate- Cookie and Kate has a whole slew of healthy plant-based recipes, many of which are gluten-free. But don’t get the idea that you’ll be eating twigs and berries. The recipes are all extremely diverse and appealing, you’ll want to become vegetarian just looking at this food. I’ve made several recipes from Cookie and Kate in the past, and they’ve always turned out to be major successes in my house. The recipes are creative, yet flexible so if you don’t have every single ingredient you can wing it and it will turn out great!

Lexi’s Clean Kitchen- Accessable clean eating is the goal in Lexi’s Clean Kitchen. Lexi, a passionate recipe creator, develops creative, tasty, and nutritious recipes using healthy ingredients. Her recipes encompass all needs and tastes from dairy-free, to gluten-free, sugar-free, and paleo; so everyone can find something that works for them. I can totally relate to Lexi’s story because she decided to make major liestyle changes to live a happier and healthier life, just like I did, and has found major success with eating a cleaner diet and leading a more balanced life. To that I say, right on girl!

From The Land We Live On- Rustic charm perfectly describes the feel of this blog. Sophia, the brains and heart behind the recipes, shares her experiences in urban gardening, foraging, and food preservation, and focuses on the importance of eating food that is found close to home. Recipes include gluten-free, vegan and paleo options, and they all look beyond appetizing. I pretty much want to make everything I see here. Even if you don’t plan on making any of these delicious meals, just browsing the site will be a delightful experience because the visual component is so appealing.
