Iron-Rich Foods for When I’m on my Period… =P

I feel like by now you folks are well acquainted with the fact that I have no qualms about airing it all out online. I’ve talked about break-ups, I’ve talked about pooping my pants on the subway. Half the population of the world menstruates and it’s a pretty key driver in my hunger when that time comes, so it’s probably a good idea to talk about it.

My period is coming soon, and I feel like people don’t eat according to their body’s cravings sometimes, and that’s totally something that should change. Check out all the recipes I tend to fall back to when my body craves some extra carbs and iron (and chocolate). Also be sure to check out my video about the topic!
