What are you serving this holiday season? I have the perfect fall drink recipe for you. This warm spiked apple cider drink recipe is seriously perfect with all the best fall flavors. The goal of this drink is to taste like a bitter candied apple – so if you aren’t really into bitter combined with…
I created this video as part of a sponsored Instagram promotion. All opinions are my own. Raise your hands if you’re busy during the holidays! Just like me, I bet you’re super busy and find it really hard to fit in the time to cook or bake as much as you’d like. I absolutely love…
I love baking and I love sweets. Except, I try to limit the amount of refined sugar and fat I have in my diet. This creates a problem. How can I still bake but not create food that isn’t good for me? Well, I’ve been experimenting a little more with adding in beans. I know…
Have you heard of chickpea cookies? Sounds gross, right? Well, they aren’t! I don’t know how it’s possible, but when you add just the right amount of nut butter, honey and chocolate chips, they really do taste like some version of a chocolate chip cookie. Don’t get too excited. They aren’t my all-time favorite chocolate…
I’ve made pie crust before, but I’ve never made a fresh fruit pie. I’ve made turnovers and galettes, but never a homemade pie from scratch. After a very stressful week at work, I came home and decided to bake. Given that there weren’t many groceries in the house, I didn’t have a lot of options….
Are you looking for some recipe inspiration for your next gathering or BBQ? You need to try some of these healthy and fresh summer vegetarian recipes I’ve created over the years. All of them use fresh produce that’s at its peak during the summer. Many of them also include cheese or dairy. If you’re a…
If you asked me what one of my favorite hobbies is, baking would be at the top of the list. I absolutely love to bake. I find it so therapeutic. I’ve also got a major sweet tooth. If it wasn’t ultra-unhealthy, I’d probably live on desserts (and maybe this pizza). When it comes to BBQs,…
This post is sponsored by ©Knudsen & Sons, Inc., all opinions are my own. What are your favorite summer flavors? This cherry lime spritz combines two of my favorites. Cherries are my far my favorite summer fruit and I’m always a big fan of limes, all year long. This drink really is the perfect drink…
What do you do when you have a whole bunch of ripe bananas and kids who are so ‘over’ eating them? Well, I usually make some version of banana bread – muffins or a loaf of bread are my standard go-tos. I recently made this recipe, and it was a winner. But I get so…
I’m so excited to share this Argentinian alfajores dulce de leche sandwich cookies recipe with you! I’ve been dying to make a traditional Argentinian recipe ever since I got back from Buenos Aires. I finally got around to it when my friend from Buenos Aires recently visited and brought me so many goodies from his…
After a workout, I often enjoy a simple protein shake. Usually, I’ll just use almond milk (light, unsweetened vanilla flavor, btw), and a scoop of whey. If I’m feeling extra hungry, I might throw in a tablespoon of peanut butter. Most of the time, this protein shake just serves to tide me over until it’s…
Confession: I cannot have jars of Nutella in my house. It’s a problem. I just like it too much! So, when the company sent me a couple jars, I knew I had to use them right away. I have another recipe coming up in a couple weeks, but I had to use this other jar…
This post is sponsored by Nutella®, but all opinions are my own. My kids are such picky eaters, especially my son. I’m constantly looking for new ideas for meals to change it up. These breakfast bruschetta with Nutella® Hazelnut Spread are super easy to make, taste fantastic, and are a fun way to shake up…
Growing up in Wisconsin, eating cheese was part of my daily diet (good or bad). On a regular basis, my mom would purchase the spreadable cheeses – my favorite was the wine cheese flavor with the cheddar being a close second. I recently had a chance to make a recipe featuring my childhood favorite brand…
This post is sponsored by Pillsbury™. All opinions are my own. How do you celebrate Easter with your family? Brunch is a major Easter tradition in many households and since my family loves breakfast foods, I’m planning to create a whole spread for them. I’ve never made sticky cinnamon buns before, so when I teamed…
