These No-Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Granola Bars are the best granola bars I’ve ever had. They are very satisfying, and are a great pre-workout snack. When I first started thinking about making my own granola bars, I was intimidated because I thought they would be complicated and […]
Ok, so this lemon honey ‘tea’ isn’t actually a tea at all :). But, it is a delicious hot beverage that I find to be very relaxing. Upon waking in the morning, I like to make this hot beverage, especially during the long, cold winter […]
So, I was looking to make chicken fajitas one night, and I posed a question to google: what side dishes compliment chicken fajitas? I posed this question at 11:30 pm on a weeknight…biiiiiggggg mistake. Some pretty awesome recipes came up though, including one for Mexican […]
Finally, homemade chocolate chip cookies that are easy to make and dairy-free! I haven’t had chocolate chip cookies in a while, because I was trying to figure out how to economically achieve a dairy-free chocolate chip. There are such chips in existence at the store, […]
Having a dairy allergy is probably one of the worst allergies ever. I never realized how much stuff had dairy in it, until I could no longer have it. Now, what is dairy in? Chocolate. What can every ovulating woman not avoid around that special […]
I hate zucchini. I will literally only eat it if it’s shredded and put into a cookie, like Coconut Oil Double Chocolate Zucchini Cookies. So, while staying at a friend’s house, my friend’s mom made breaded zucchini chips and asked if I wanted any. I […]
Introduction Minimalism. A buzzword that’s been thrown around more and more in recent years, and the essence of which has been lost due to its commercialization which focuses on the aesthetics of what minimalism should look like. This type of commercialization seeks to make you […]
I have recently turned into a huge raisin fan. I purchased a container of them, and noticed on the packaging that it’s best if they are refrigerated. I thought it strange, but put them in the fridge anyways. I went to have some for a […]
I first tasted roasted delicata squash in graduate school when one of my friends prepared it. If you like butternut squash, then you will definitely love delicata squash. In my opinion, it has a lot more flavor than butternut, and roasting the squash really brings […]
This is a perfect dish to make on a cold, snowy winter night when you want to make a lot of food, with little effort. It also frees you up to do other more important things…like baking Christmas cookies! This vegetable ditalini soup is DELICIOUS! […]
It just wouldn’t be Christmas without baking chewy molasses cookies. When I think of Christmas and the holidays in general, I think of the exact smell of these cookies. While they’re not gingerbread, they are a close relative and they make your house smell so […]
Christmas is just around the corner, and it’s time to prepare by baking LOTS of cookies :). You are probably reading this thinking M&M cookies? This recipe is well known! It is…but there’s a twist here. Instead of using butter, this recipe utilizes extra light […]
Yes, I know you can buy roasted red bell peppers in a jar. 🙂 But, there is a lot more flavor to be gained by making your own. It does take a little bit of work, but the flavor is definitely worth it! ARE YOU […]

So I must confess…I’m not an overwhelmingly huge fan of quinoa. I have successfully avoided eating it for a long time. But now that I can no longer fulfill my protein requirements with dairy, tree nuts, or soy, I have been forced to re-evaluate its […]
These dinner rolls are FANTASTIC. You will never buy dinner rolls again! They are light and fluffy, with plenty of nooks and crannies for the soup juices to sneak into. These rolls do take some time to make, but they are totally worth it! I […]
While scrambled eggs seems basic and likely has no place on a food blog, this recipe is actually important for those with sensitive nervous systems. Eggs contain a healthy amount of B12 (one egg contains 23% DV!) which is important for anxiety sufferers. A deficiency […]
I must confess, I have never been a big fan of brownies. This feeling likely stems from my childhood when I devoured nearly 3/4 of an 9″ x 13″ baking pan full of brownies and suffered the consequences that night. However, that all changed recently. […]
Pumpkin pie spice. The cornerstone of every fall treat and beverage. Whether you love it or hate it, it’s the defining taste and scent of fall. Just looking at the word fall conjures up its scent for me. I for one, love pumpkin pie spice […]
I’ll be the first to admit that I am super paranoid about what goes into my food. Whenever I am in the grocery store, providing I am not panicking lol, I scrutinize the ingredient labels to the nth degree. Now, chicken is a hard meat […]
