sweet and salty snack mix

Chocolate and Peanut Butter Sweet Salty Snack Mix

An easy and delicious sweet and salty snack mix to make for your next party or yourself is always a hit. I’m not a sports fan. Like at all. So it should not be a surprise to anyone that I do not care about the Super Bowl. Not even the commercials. Unfortunately for me, my [...]

chocolate berry pies

Berry Chocolate Mini Pies

Mini chocolate berry pies make the perfect gift for your significant other, best friend, or just to treat yourself. I can’t think of a better treat for Valentine’s Day than these easy berry chocolate mini pies. Kind of like fancy (but also kind of rustic?!) PopTarts. I made these because I had leftover pie crust, [...]

green enchilada sauce

Easy Green Enchilada Sauce

An easy green enchilada sauce recipe is perfect when you want enchiladas that are better than opening a can. I love enchiladas, but especially salsa verde enchiladas. There’s something about tart, spicy, and rich flavor combined with creamy cheese that gets me every time. It’s easy to pick up a can of enchilada sauce in [...]

berry baked oatmeal

Berry Crumble Baked Oatmeal

 A dessert-like berry baked oatmeal is perfect for cold winter days. It can be hard to eat healthy food in the winter sometimes. It’s cold outside, and nothing is better when it’s cold than a cheesy casserole or soup. So I often find myself trying to reset my diet around this time of year. Nothing [...]

eggplant parmesan sandwich

Eggplant Parmesan Sandwich on Toasted Ciabatta

An eggplant Parmesan sandwich on garlic toasted ciabatta? Yes! When you don’t eat meat, the hardest thing to give up is a good sandwich. To be fair, the vegetarian landscape has dramatically improved, but it’s nice to have options. And crunchy pan-fried eggplant with a quick homemade sauce, melty cheese is definitely an option. With [...]

White Cheddar Pizza Bread

When you think of a pizza bread recipe, my guess is it’s something along the lines of a French bread pizza. This is not that. At all. This is a loaf of yeast-raised bread with pockets of sharp white cheddar, a spicy pizza seasoning, and crunchy edges that taste like the best part of a [...]

Wild Blueberry Pancakes

Wild blueberry pancakes are the perfect way to end a weekend. I have a love-hate relationship with blueberries. Like most fruit, buying them at the grocery store is a guessing game. Sometimes they’re good, but often they’re tiny, tasteless balls of nothing. I wanted to make blueberry pancakes that are fluffy, tender, and jam-packed full [...]

turmeric hot chocolate

Turmeric Mocha

Creamy turmeric hot chocolate with a jolt of strong coffee? Sign me up! A while ago, a friend of mine gave me something called MUD/WTR. This is marketed as a coffee substitute and is made of lots of good for you things like turmeric, cacao, and some ground up mushrooms. You mix it with hot [...]

tiramisu overnight oats

Tiramisu Overnight Oats

Tiramisu overnight oats are dessert for breakfast. So good. Italian food is not my favorite cuisine. I like it. I’ll eat it for sure. But tiramisu is definitely one of my favorite desserts. There’s something about the creamy, coffee flavor that gets me every time. And you can be sure that if I see it [...]

roasted vegetable spinach salad

Spinach Salad with Roasted Winter Vegetables and Cornbread Croutons

A roasted vegetable spinach salad is a delicious and healthy way to start the new year! Salads are summer foods in my opinion. Fresh produce is not great in the winter, and when it’s cold, I want something warm and comforting. A cold salad generally doesn’t appeal to me. I say generally because there are [...]
