Salted Peppermint Rice Krispie Treats
I really wasn’t planning on sharing more sweets with you, but occasions to bake keep coming up out of nowhere! I made these last night for some friends, and then whipped up another quick batch for the hubs to take to work today. This recipe took me less than 15 minutes to pull together- talk […]
Small Batch Natural Applesauce
Hi muffins! I was making another batch of applesauce this afternoon and I realized that it’s something I’ve never shared with you. I started making this applesauce when my little guy was six months old and ready to start solid food. As you can probably guess, I wasn’t into buying pre-made baby food and instead, […]
Jim Lahey’s Stecca Bread
I mentioned in my last post that we love great bread at our picnics. Sometimes we just tear it up and eat it in chunks with cheese and fruit and sometimes we’ll do sandwiches. For some reason, great bread just makes a picnic more memorable (and obviously more delicious). This recipe is a perfect picnic […]
Smoky Pork Tacos
Friends, we’re all lucky today that I found my way out of bed and stumbled over to the computer to write this post. My house got hit with the stomach bug this weekend and it has been aw–ful. Friday, I got it. Saturday, I attempted to recover. Sunday, baby got it, then husband got it. […]
Blackberry Galette
Did I tell you my thing about pies? Here’s my thing. I didn’t used to like pies as a kid, but I do now. I love to eat them, but I don’t really like to make them. (I’m more of a cake baker, remember?) I know pie dough is easy to pull together, but the […]
Corn, Crab and Tomato Salad
Happy May, ladies and gents! I want to start of the month with a little giveaway for you.. how does that sound? The lovely folks at Cooking Light have come out with a new cookbook called Way To Cook. This cookbook isn’t just your typical pretty food photography and written recipes. The book takes you […]
Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies
I am a chewy chocolate chip cookie lover. There is just something excellent about biting into a soft, gooey, melty cookie. Sounds perfect already.. but add nutella, and I’ll eat the whole batch. I’ve been a little light on the posting lately. That’s mostly because I got burnt out on all the vegan business. It […]
Spinach Kale and Pear Smoothie
Green drink! Are you in, loves? My last attempt at a green smoothie wasn’t exactly what I hoped for. So, I picked myself up and found some more green inspiration. Kale. Spinach. Pear. YUM. This smoothie looks very green, but you don’t actually taste any of the green stuff. All I really tasted was the […]
Vegan CocoNana Mini Muffins
Even though I’m not living the vegan lifestyle anymore, I’m still finding ways to enjoy vegan recipes in my diet. I saw this recipe this morning on Miss Mary‘s blog and I had to jump right in and make them! They looked delicious and simple, and they were. The name CocoNana refers to the coconut […]
Part-Time Vegan, Day 4
I ate too many cookies today. ‘Cause, you know.. sugar’s vegan. (Woo hoo!) Breakfast was a peanut butter banana wrap with almond milk. Lunch was the salad bar at Lane’s. Snack was (too many!!) vegan chocolate chip cookies. Dinner was leftover pasta. Let me just tell you about this banana wrap. I make this […]
