Orange Creamsicle Smoothies

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate citrus season? I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that citrus fruit is the best part of winter. There’s nothing quite like biting into a sweet, juicy orange to really brighten up those cold, drab, dreary winter days. Right? Right. I’ve been […]

Overnight Oatmeal Cookie Smoothie

When I made this recipe for the first time a few weeks back, I made Mike taste it and he immediately asked me if I could just make a big vat of this every single week for him. So, this smoothie recipe is a good one in case you needed me to interpret Mike speak […]

Pumpkin Muffins

You know all those fall recipes that call for some pumpkin puree, but you don’t need the entire can of pumpkin puree, so you put the rest into a glass container in the fridge and then you wonder what the heck to do with it? I’m here to help. I had some pumpkin leftover after […]

Sheet Pan Western Style Baked Eggs

I had a pretty severe hatred of peppers the first 31 years of my life. I think perhaps it was because my mother used to force feed me stuffed peppers and stuffed tomatoes for dinner as a child. As a result I grew up detesting both peppers and tomatoes because once I turned however old […]

Peach Cheesecake Stuffed Blender Pancakes

It’s officially August, which means it’s officially stone fruit season. I love them all! Peaches, nectarines, apricots. They’re all good here. I can’t possibly pick a favorite, but today we’re talking about peaches. We’re talking about stuffing them inside tasty, tasty pancakes, that’s what we’re doing. At this point I’m pretty convinced that a quality […]

Bacon Fig Frittata

Before I made this recipe I had never had figs before in my life. Rather, if I had had figs previously, I didn’t eat them knowingly. Maybe they were shoved into a dish I’ve ordered in the past out at a restaurant. That I can’t say for sure. But this recipe was the very first […]

Double Chocolate Banana Bread

I hadn’t planned on making a banana bread recipe any time soon. Why? Because in my 31 years on this earth, I’ve just never really been a huge fan of banana bread. Or bananas in general. There I said it. But last week I had three bananas staring at me on the top of my […]

Almond Cherry Smoothie Bowl

Spring has officially SPRUNG here in Connecticut. I know because all of the pretty trees in my apartment complex are blooming and it’s such a lovely sight to see. Why can’t the trees keep their flowers for longer than .5 seconds? It’s really such a bummer. Especially since we all knows what immediately follows flowering […]

Maple Bacon Breakfast Sausage

I shunned pork products for the most part for several years since I really struggled to find a good source for it. I wasn’t really comfortable eating any of the pork I would find at the supermarket and I’ve definitely heard my fair share of horror stories about conventional pork and the way that it […]

Mint Chocolate Chip Blender Pancakes

Growing up, we hosted and attended a ton of sleepovers. Doesn’t every young girl? Ahhhh, memories. I’m pretty sure my house was known as the “fun pancake house.” In the mornings when my mom would hear us stirring, she would knock on our door and when we granted her access, she would poke her head […]
