Crock-Pot Apple Crumble Breakfast Pudding
Shortly after I started food journaling, I learned that my body does much better on fats and proteins than carbohydrates like grains and legumes. After making this realization, I was introduced; err more like fell, into a primal/paleo eating style. 4 days into it, I began missing big warm bowls of oatmeal. 8 days into…
Coconut Almond Bark (no sugar added)
I wish I would have come up with this recipe sooner. Like 3 years sooner. If you like coconut, you’re going to LOVE this bark. If you don’t like coconut, I suggest you make a batch of chai spice roasted almonds and forget this post ever existed. Sure, you could make these for people as…
Maple Cinnamon Protein Pancakes with Glazed Apples
Kevin and I love Christmas. Each year around this time, we begin our gingerbread house building plans, decorate the tree, and we even go as far as planning exactly what we’ll make together for breakfast on Christmas morning. When you read together, instead read – Kevin playing with the dogs while I make breakfast. Team…
Pumpkin Gingersnap Chia Breakfast Parfaits
Pictures like this make me miss home, and my kitchen. There’s something to be said for being able to mosey on down to your kitchen and create whatever tickles your fancy. Don’t get me wrong, I’m having a great time in London; there are so many amazing shops, great energy, and tasty food to be…
Baked Maple Peach Acorn Squash Dessert
One of the lessons I’ve learned from tracking my daily eats in my food journal, is that my body responds really well to squashes. Every time I eat them I feel energized, satiated, and if done up right, they satisfy my sweet tooth, too! I’ve been trying to introduce myself to a new type of…
Gluten-free + Vegan Gingersnap Cookies
I loved the idea of gifting my homemade cake stands to friends and families for the holidays. (Thanks everyone!) Thing is – you can’t really give a cake stand to someone without having treats on it, especially if they know that you love to bake. So I tried to figure out what seasonal recipe I…
Tangy Dill Dressing
I’ve gone into another pickle craze. It happens every couple of months and has proven to be extra awesome when you have an entire shelf of homemade pickles in your basement. Gosh, making my own pickles has to be one of the best ideas I’ve ever had. Adding pickles to salad dressing? Another fabulous idea….
Maple Turnip and Carrot Mash
My love for mashed potatoes goes deep. The day I moved out of my parents house at the tender age of 17, I was very happy to learn that potatoes were about the only thing I could afford. That and egg noodles, tomato juice and licorice from Walmart. Let’s just say there was a 3…
Gluten-free Multigrain Rosemary Crackers
I’m so late in sharing this recipe with you, but I can explain. It all started with a craving for buttery crackers about a month ago. Now, normally I’m really good at the whole recipe development process. I’ve lost many a written down recipe, and felt I had learned my lesson. But low and behold,…
Frozen “Boo”nana Pops (no sugar added)
It’s rare that I come across a recipe that I want to make SO badly that I literally run down to the kitchen to prepare it on the spot. The last time it happened was when I’d found Averie’s Blueberry Banana Oat Cakes. Just a couple of substitutions and it quickly morphed into what is…
