Oil-free Lemon Blueberry Buckwheat Bakes
When I shared my Fall training plan with you, I’d mentioned that I was hoping to switch up my diet to support a quicker race pace. I knew in order to do this, it would come down to two things: Shed fat Build lean muscle mass In a healthy way. No protein bars, no calorie…
Grain-free Coffee Cake Made With Love and Gratitude
I read Jennie’s story on Friday night while I sat relaxing on the couch with Kevin after a ridiculously long day. Halfway through, tears started trickling down my cheeks. Upon leaving a comment and looking over at Kevin with eyes of adoration, I closed my laptop and cuddled up to him. Instead of running around…
Snickerdoodle Quinoa Flake Bake
I asked my followers on Facebook a couple of weeks ago what quinoa flake bake flavor I should come up with next. Although there was a strong following for carrot cake at first, snickerdoodle ended up sliding into first base. A couple of tries later and I successfully landed on a cake that was perfectly…
Coconut Surprise Breakfast Bake
One of my clients shared this coconut waffle recipe with me over a month ago. Since then, I’ve made at least 10 batches [they make great pancakes too!]. Having been introduced to a new blog in the process; Joy from Joy the Baker is amazing, it wasn’t long until I was inspired to turn the…
5 minute Mango Tropics Quinoa Flake Bake
I’ve been drawn to these mango quinoa bakes this week because they’re fast and can be prepared the night before. That, and there was a mango sale at Superstore over the weekend. Let’s just say I may have gone a little overboard on the stockpiling. Bonus is, I’ve learned how to freeze multiple pounds of…

After my race on Saturday, we rushed home so I could make a birthday cake for my dad. One of my infamous dairy-free recipes that wins the hearts of everyone who tastes it. For real. I had originally planned to make Angela’s no bake version of her Chilled Double Chocolate Torte, but the avocados I…

I’m back! Boy, did I miss you guys [and my kitchen]. Don’t let that fool you though, I still cooked up a storm while we were away. I am [still] uploading all of our pictures and videos from the trip, and plan to share them with you tomorrow. I managed to make these snack bars…
Raw Carrot Cake “Cheese”cake
Vacation begins as soon as I finish this post! We’re heading out on our first excursion today to Jhonston Canyon, one of the prettiest places in the mountains; if you ask me! But first, to the dessert I made for us last night after our ribs + potato salad. Warning: this is more like a…
Upside Down Apple Pinwheel Cake
Okay, think of how long it took you to make your last apple pie with a homemade crust. If you’ve never made a home baked apple pie, I totally understand why. Now, divide that by 5. The result? Upside Down Apple Pinwheel Cake. It tastes very similar to apple pie, but I didn’t have to…
Double Chocolate Crunch Quinoa Flake Bake
I feel like the box should say: DANGER contains chocolate. When Alina at Enjoy Life told me they were sending me a couple of their new allergy-friendly chocolate products, I jumped for joy, then quickly started planning a recipe. As soon as the box came in the mail, I opened the bag inconspicuously and grabbed…
