Blog Love: The Lean Green Bean

by 161 Comments

Good morning!

Today began with a hot mug of coffee.

Oh sweet joy!

I followed up my cup of coffee with an egg sandwich topped with cheese and jelly.

I may have been a little heavy-handed with the jelly knife this morning…

I don't think you're ready for this jelly

Blog Love: The Lean Green Bean

Yesterday, as I ate my lunch in the break room, I opened up the Bloglovin’ app on my phone and caught up with some blog reading. I read a bunch of blogs and thought it might be fun to periodically highlight one of my favorites since I know many of you are big-time blog readers who are always on the lookout for fun blogs to read.

The blog I am highlighting today isn’t a brand new blog, but it recently became one of my favorites!

The Lean Green Bean

The Lean Green Bean!

The blogger behind The Lean Green Bean, Lindsay, is a registered dietitian. For those of you interested in becoming an RD, Lindsay has a whole section of her blog dedicated to her journey which is really interesting!

    I just participated in The Lean Green Bean Foodie Pen Pals program! It was great! I also started my own blog recently about eating locally and various other healthy living tips. It’s small, but I love my little blog : )

    Can’t wait to see other blogs you read!

    I love Lindsey’s blog! She is just so sweet and shares some of the best healthy eating and living advice! One of my favorite blogs I recently found is wrote by Sarah called Sweet Miles! She is hilarious and writes about her adorable lab, Truckee! 🙂

    Oh, I also love Sean Lowe’s (the bachelor!) sister Shay’s blog called Mix and Match Mama. She is adorable!

    I love Lindsay! She was one of the first bloggers I ever found, and I think she may have been the reason I started looking for more blogs!
    I just started a blog last week actually, and I’m so excited to have joined the blogging community! I’m a 17-year-old high school senior posting about my exercise, meals, faith, and other random thoughts of life. I try to post every day! http://dailymovesandgrooves.wordpress.com
    I also love http://www.living-mint-green.com who I recently found 🙂 She posts about her amazing adventures hiking and camping in Canada and she’s so funny!

    I just found Lindsay’s blog. I have many that I read every day usually while waiting for supper to cook or for my kids at their activities.

    I JUST started my own blog as in the only thing up there right now is my first post. I will be writing about balancing everything as I work full time, eating healthy and mostly homemade items and thinking about training for my first half marathon and raising my two special boys.

    My friends Whitney and Scott along with another couple started a blog called He & She Eat Clean. (www.heandsheeatclean.com)

    It has a lot of information about clean eating, fitness, workouts, nutrition and more. It has so many yummy recipes too!

    Favorite blog ever is notallergictoadventure.blogspot.com. This girl is the American record holder for a 24 hr ultra. She rarely posts but all her race recaps and so well written and interesting! I also like Sweaty Emily

    This is awesome! I’m interested in going back to school to be an RD, so this is perfect! I’m still working on my blog, but it is runnerinstilettos.wordpress.com if anyone wants to check it out 🙂

    Thank you for the recommendation! One of the reason why I like your blog is your relaxed attitude towards fitness and healthy eating – much more in line with how I approach it in my life – and Lindsey seems to be the same. Plus, her fur babies are adorbs.
