Inspire me: Sarah B from My New Roots

My first Inspire me post of the new year is someone that really won’t need any introduction… Sarah B, the ever positive voice behind My New Roots has worked up quite a name for herself over the past few years, sharing her trademark health-inspired recipes (often over on Martha Stewart’s Meatless Mondays series too!), in-depth nutritional information and […]
