Dutch lifestyle blogger, Rens Kroes, has a growing and enthusiastic following of power foodies! Growing up on a farm in Friesland, she learned her healthy eating and lifestyle habits from her parents. She inspires her dedicated following to eat their way to happiness and vitality first in her flagship book (Power Food) and now in Power Food on the Go.

Power foodies are constantly on the go! Rens Kroes provides a wide variety of recipes that you can make yourself at home and take with you, whether you’re heading off to work, going to the gym, or running errands. There’s no reason to purchase an expensive smoothie when you can create smoothies like the Mint-Chocolate Drink or Happy Spinach Smoothie.

Tempting to head to a cafe or food truck during lunchtime? For those busy days at work, there are also plenty of delicious yet healthy lunch recipes. Some of my favorites include Celeriac Soup, Cauliflower Couscous, and Rainbow Noodle Salad, to name a few. Her make-ahead recipe ideas are perfect for someone like me that gets caught up easily in a whirlwind of activities. Time is of the essence. That is why I’m always looking for ways to simplify my wonderfully chaotic schedule. Simplicity is the key to a well-balanced life and true happiness, after all.

From the beautiful food photography to the refreshingly unique recipes, it is hard not to embrace Rens Kroes’ enthusiasm for food, health, and life on-the-go!
