As we’re in full summer mode here at PFF, today we’re bringing you the perfect poolside: Caprese Salad with Basil Pesto + Balsamic Glaze. For whatever reason, pesto is one of those foods I always forget about/don’t seem to get excited about when out to eat or browsing recipes. (Am I allowed to say this as an 100% Italian!?…) However, this recipe made me have … Continue reading Caprese Salad with Basil Pesto + Balsamic Glaze
Before thorough investigation, one of the latest wellness trends we had been wondering WTF is that?! about is Cryotherapy. Taylor and I had the opportunity to try Cryotherapy at C.R.Y.O. Philadelphia about two weeks ago, and we’re excited to dish the facts + deets about our experiences. What is cryotherapy? “Cryotherapy” can refer to a menagerie of cold therapies—doctors using extreme cold to freeze off … Continue reading WTF: Cryotherapy
If you live in Philly, you may have been #blessed enough to snag some free Pineapple Charcoal Lemon-aid from Sip-N-Glo Juicery for their “free juice day” yesterday. I was lucky enough to grab one, and even though I’ve had their charcoal lemonade before, I couldn’t help but wonder: what is activated charcoal and why am I drinking it? (Other than the obvious reason that drinking … Continue reading WTF: Activated Charcoal
Raise your hand if you’ve ever taken a jar of Tostitos Queso to the face!? If your hand isn’t up, you’re a liar… but, moving on… Really though, queso is just one of those dips that is to die for. But, if you’re grabbing it by the jar at the store, the ingredients surely can be questionable. Since it’s such a treat, we knew our … Continue reading Salsa con Queso
Like many of our WTF posts, this topic was inspired by our own blissful ignorance. We’ve occasionally seen spirulina listed as an ingredient on various menus, but never truly stopped to research and understand it. I recently ordered a smoothie that had spirulina listed as an ingredient, and when Hope asked me what spirulina is, my response was something along the lines of, “Idk, I … Continue reading WTF: Spirulina
Happy Monday, Fit Foodies! Today we’re talking about a topic we’re very passionate about—snacking. Snacking tends to get a bad rap, but we believe if you’re actually hungry + mindfully portioning, snack time it is. Courtesy of the ever-evolving and trend-spitting IG, we’ve recently discovered our new, handy-dandy snacking tool: a muffin tin! #MuffinTinMonday On IG, the muffin tin snack tray seems very popular for … Continue reading How to Make a Healthy Snack Plate

WTF Wednesday is back! Today we’re talking about another super trending topic in the health + wellness space: CBD. It’s been pretty crazy to watch the CBD explosion over the last year or so. From being rather difficult to get your hands on, to now being available in pressed juices, ice cream, gummies, skincare, pet food, and more—CBD is all the rage. But why? What … Continue reading WTF: CBD
In the spirit of International Women’s Day today, we thought it would be the perfect opportunity to show some much-deserved appreciation to (read: fangirl over) the women who inspire us day in and day out. If not for the existence of these fearless females and their platforms, we never would have had the courage to start our own platform. Whether it be their transparent personality, … Continue reading Shoutout to our Favorite Female Food Bloggers
I first learned about BCAA supplements when I embarked on my fitness journey and followed several fitness accounts on IG. I noticed various people posting about consuming BCAAs in relation to exercising, plus talking about their many delicious flavors. When I started working with a macro + training coach, she suggested I add them to my routine. Without giving it much thought, I obliged! Taylor … Continue reading WTF: BCAA Supplements
