Today the sun is shining and spring is in full bloom, but yesterday? Yesterday (and the day before) was filled with dark clouds, soft rain, and below 50 degree weather. And since it is spring (April showers and all that) I figured we could all use a hot meal idea to get us through the…
Tropical Super Food Smoothie Bowl With Orange, Mango, And Banana
Hello, everyone! How are you? Hopefully staying healthy and enjoying some warm weather. Or, if you’re like me and live in a tundra, praying that you don’t get the flu (again) and looking at the drab gray sky and praying for a peek at some blue. Luckily for all of us not enjoying 50 degree…
Superfood Mason Jar Salad
Before we get into today’s post (which, is awesome by the way) I just had to give you an update about my hard drive situation because… I finally heard back and WD is going to be able to get my files back! I found out yesterday afternoon, and man, it feels good to have our…
On-The-Go Breakfast Bar (and some exciting news!)
How was your Mother’s Day Weekend? Hopefully, full of flowers and breakfast-in-bed if you’re a mom, and for all of the rest of us, I hope you were able to spend some quality time with the amazing women in your life! Now, if you noticed, I was a little MIA last week and there are a couple…
Naturally Sweetened Granola With Honey Yogurt Drizzle
So, I feel like I just posted a granola recipe a little bit ago, but apparently I’m on a bit of a granola kick. Something about spring that just makes me want granola for breakfast! And what makes this recipe unique, is that it’s filled with puffed rice, buckwheat groats, dried blueberries, chia seeds, dates, flax-seed and…
Chia Seed Pudding With Mango Curd (Using Fresh Mangoes)
I am really starting to believe that spring is here and winter is no more! After that crazy long winter we had, I was beginning to forget what sunshine felt like! Luckily, the temps are up and the sun is out (at least for today) and that makes me extremely happy! And to celebrate, I…
One Week Of Healthy, Easy & Affordable Meals
Today, I have something extra special for you guys. A few weeks ago, I got a Facebook message from a friend asking me for some advice on constructing a meal plan that was both healthy and affordable and doable for someone in college. As soon as I read it I realized that many of us…
Granola Clusters
I made us some granola! And man, is it good! Today’s post is one of those glorious recipes that come together on the first try AND look beautiful! This may surprise the non-food bloggers out there, but along with the normal recipe testing for each post, I sometimes have to re-shoot a dish multiple times, as well! In…
Cheesy Rice Balls
Today’s post is all about Super Bowl food. And by that I mean these warm, gooey, cheese-filled rice balls that are seriously going to blow your guests away! Full disclosure, they’re a little messy to make BUT, I promise they are totally worth it. And when you finally get a bite of their warm ooey gooey centers, you’ll…
Quinoa Stuffed Peppers
Today is extra special because it’s my Mom’s birthday! I probably should have baked a cake in her honor but, seeing as she lives a few hundred miles away, I figured I would save the treats for when we are next together and instead make one of my favorite recipes of hers, stuffed bell peppers! She used to…
