How to Make Your Own Dog Food by theorganicbunny on March 19, 2019March 18, 2022 When it comes to choosing the best food for your pets, it can be so very overwhelming. Depending on who you ask, you can get a million different responses on what the best diet is for dogs. Grain-free, raw, soy-free, corn-free, Vegan, so, who do you trust? I can not tell you that one, but, what I can tell you is the route we took in hopes that it helps you decide what’s best for you and your pet as well! For the last few years, I was feeding my dogs Acana dog food thinking it was a more “high end” and clean option, however, after watching the pet food documentary called Pet Fooled I, unfortunately, learned that even nicer brands of kibble, like my fave Acana, can become carcinogenic due to being heated at high levels that in return creates a carcinogenic effect which, for us meant, bye-bye to all kibble. I wanted to have a blog on how we make our dog food but please note, this is just our personal routine and you should look for your own holistic vet in your area to get the perfect, well-balanced diet for your pet!

Considering I used to have bleached blonde hair, then jet black hair, and now have a more natural hair color, I am no stranger to hair damage, which is why I wanted to do a blog on exactly how I repaired my hair after some significant self-inflicted damage!

Organic Spicy Red Lentil Mushroom Pasta by theorganicbunny on January 20, 2018 As many of you know, Kyle and I have been on a plant-based diet since the start of the new year and honestly, we are obsessed with all of our meals, mostly due to finding a Vegan cheese that contains no soy and actually melts! At first changing to a plant-based diet seems overwhelming and impossible, especially for those meat and cheese loving men like Kyle but so far, we’re so good, we actually have been loving our meals so much we barely go out to eat anymore which is not only better on our health but our wallets as well. I definitely do not have time to blog like a professional food blogger so I apologize in advance if you were hoping for better pics or details ? Read More

Project Juice Co-Founder Marra St. Clair Q & A! by theorganicbunny on December 29, 2015December 29, 2015 Have you ever wondered the difference between juicing and smoothies? Which is healthier and why? Or, perhaps you’re wanting to start a juice cleanse but you’re not so sure if it’s healthy for you? Today I am chatting all things liquid fruit thanks to this special one on one with Marra St. Clair, the co-founder of Project Juice! Before we start this Q & A, here’s a little info on Project Juice. I first discovered Project Juice online a few months back when I was in serious need of a juice cleanse. After just one online order of fresh Organic juice and nut milk, I was hooked, they have so many awesome flavors I really could not wait to be back for more. Not only is Project Juice 100% Organic, their juices are always cold-pressed, delivered fresh to your door. While they do make it easy to order online, they also have a handful of stores around Northern and Southern California, think an all Organic Jamba Juice, only better! Their stores are stocked full of the yummiest foods, smoothies, and juices, I really would eat here every single day if I could. Now that you know a bit more on the brand and what they carry, here are the questions I had for them, perhaps to make the juice/cleanse process a bit easier to understand, and to shed a bit more light on this awesome company I have grown to love, let’s chat!

Flu Fighting Juice by theorganicbunny on September 5, 2015 I am going to keep this blog pretty simple and to the point, mostly because I still am sick and have no energy to type up an elaborate blog. Most of you know I have been pretty sick and now that I am feeling a tad better, with enough energy to actually walk to the kitchen, I really wanted to load up on some natural foods to really fight off this flu for once and for all. Whenever your immune system is feeling down or weak here are some of the best fruits and veggies to load up on! Immune Boosting Fruits, Veggies & Spices- Ginger- I used to hate ginger but after learning about how good it was for me, I’ve found a new love and appreciation for this spicy little root. Another way to fight inflammation and bacteria, Ginger is a very effective root to add to juices when sick thanks to Gingerol, the bioactive substance in it which helps lower the risk of infection. Cayenne Pepper– Cayenne Pepper is one of my all-time favorite spices to cook with, but did you know that by adding it to your juices you can ease upset stomachs, ulcers, sore throats, and irritating coughs? Cayenne pepper also aids in breaking up and moving congested mucus which means relief from flu symptoms generally follows making this one of the best detoxifying ingredients ever. Lemon– Not only are lemons known to fight the free radical formulations known to cause cancer, they’re also great for fighting the flu. Lemons are high in Vitamin C which helps the immune system battle germs that cause a cold or flu. Even sipping on warm water with lemon and cayenne pepper each day is extremely beneficial for preventing these illnesses from happening in the first place. Read More
Natura Organic Wine Review by theorganicbunny on August 10, 2015June 9, 2020 While I’m not a huge drinker, I do like to enjoy a refreshing cocktail or glass of wine from time to time. When I do drink, though, I prefer it to be as organic and natural as possible, which is why I was super excited to come across this Organic, Vegan wine by Natura! Natura is currently the number one imported Organic wine brand and it’s produced by Emiliana Organic Vineyards, the world’s leading organic winery! The Natura wine collection features nine varietals, three whites and six reds, all produced from the highest quality, most pure, hand-picked, organic grapes, harvested from certified organic vineyards in some of the most renowned winegrowing valleys of Chile! Organic, natural products always taste better to me, so this wine was no exception. Because you are getting the absolute best quality 100% Organic grapes, free of all harsh chemicals, pesticides, herbicides and fertilizer, you really can taste a huge difference in this wine and it’s amazing. Because I am not a fan of red wine, I opted to try out the Sauvignon Blanc and limited edition Rose which both were beyond delicious, as I imagined they would be. Read More
Quinn Organic Popcorn Review by theorganicbunny on June 11, 2015June 15, 2015 I’m not normally a popcorn fan, mostly because up to 93% of our corn is genetically engineered and sprayed heavily with chemicals, but when Quinn Popcorn contacted me asking if I would like to sample their Organic Popcorn I thought, hell yeahhh, I can finally eat popcorn again! I have tried a few of the Organic popcorns I have seen in the stores, however, most are pretty dry and plain so I never really bought them again. Not only is Quinn Popcorn Organic and non-GMO, their popcorn comes in so many delicious flavors it’s hard to pick a favorite! Besides making pre-bagged popcorn, Quinn also makes microwave popcorn, without all the scary chemical coatings and toxic plastic & metal bags. Because I refuse to use microwaves, I was happy to learn that these bags of organic corn kernels can also be popped the old fashioned way by using a pot and healthy oil of your choice. Read More
Cinnamon Honey Paleo Bars by theorganicbunny on April 30, 2015 I had a girl tell me she loved my blog today, up until I posted a paleo recipe. This left me perplexed because Paleo is really just another word for healthy? While I do not eat entirely Paleo, I wish I had that will power, I do think it’s an awesome concept to eat primarily fruits, veggies, nuts, lean meats etc… so, there you have it, my Paleo stance. Anyway, this recipe was given to me by a friend, and after loving the bars she gave me I had to make them again for myself. These bars are super easy to make and, of course, very healthy for you. Because there are so many nuts in this mix, feel free to use the nuts you prefer instead of the ones I used, simply swap in or out whatever nuts you’d like. -Cinnamon Honey Paleo Bars- Ingredients Used, all Organic: 1 cup Cashews 1 cup Almonds 1 cup Pecans 1/2 cup Sunflower Seeds 10 Tbsp Raw Honey 1 Tbsp Chia Seeds 1/2 Tsp Sea Salt 1/2 Tsp Cinnamon 1 Tsp Vanilla 1/2 Unsweetened Coconut (I did not have) Other optional add-ins: Goji Berries, Cacao Nibs, Dried Fruit… Read More
