Healthy no-bake chocolate strawberry macaroons I have to admit that the COVID-19 pandemic rocked my world this year. Between needing to adapt to a new schedule and essentially, a new way of living, it’s been pretty stressful to say the least. I even felt like I had gained a few lbs from mindless eating those […]
This is the best homemade granola bar recipe. I mean, is there anyone out there who doesn’t appreciate a good homemade granola bar anyway? (I’ll wait). The COVID-19 pandemic has turned me into quite the foodie the past couple of months…and I’m not complaining at all. I was sitting and dreaming of the time I […]
I’ve been going crazy for these spicy vegan curried lentils lately. It’s safe to say at this point in my life, that I’ve been maintaining an 80% plant-based diet. For about 3-months last year, I had completely given up all meat, dairy, and gluten (I’ll have a post on my experience with this coming out […]
Last week, I could not stop eating. It was almost as if I had a hole in my stomach where food would just dissipate. What made matters worse was I had an insatiable sweet tooth that just wouldn’t let up. In fact, I am pretty sure I shamelessly gained a few lbs from my ravenous […]

We’ve had our dehydrator for years and although I use it pretty frequently to make kale chips, dried fruit, and jerkey, we had yet to use it to make fruit “leather” or in other words, “fruit roll ups”. Until this past week that is. It did bring back childhood memories, ones that dated back […]
Avocado pudding? yes you read that right. If you’re like me, your toddler is PICKY when it comes to food. Not going to lie, I have literally lost sleep over the stress associated with getting my 3.5 year old to eat better. We have tried introducing all sorts of food to him over the years […]
I hope everyone had a wonderful New Years Eve last night and HAPPY NEW YEAR! I made this sticky shiitake mushroom dish for lunch today and my husband was blown away by the taste. That said, he is extremely picky so I knew it had to be a hit. Shiitake Mushrooms health benefits Yesterday evening […]
I walked by the kitchen table this morning and noticed 2 extremely over-ripe bananas. So I did what any normal baking-obsessed Mom would do, I made banana bread. Since I didn’t have any other baking dish readily available to me, I decided to use my wonderful skillet. So, I’m going to call this recipe my […]
