These healthy Breakfast Cookies are a powerhouse combo of whole grains, sweet and fiber-rich apples, and nut butter for a wholesome, filling grab-and-go breakfast or snack. Back in October, I went on a little road trip with my friend Kelly. We drove from where I live in Boise, Idaho up to Washington to visit some of the SuperFresh Growers’ apple orchards. We specifically visited one of the Granny Smith orchards and the next day we […]
Mediterranean-Style Dairy-Free Omelet For Two
Before I get into telling you about this Mediterranean-Style Dairy-Free Omelet (For Two!), indulge me while I take a little trip down memory lane… Almost ten and a half years ago, in February of 2006, I sat down and composed my first blog post. I’ve been going through my old recipe archives, which are a huge mess, I admit. BUT it hasn’t stopped me from reminiscing. There are quite a few missing posts and missing photos […]
Peach Muffins with Pecan Streusel
These yummy gluten-free peach muffins have pecan streusel on top for an extra bit of crunch and buttery brown sugar sweetness. Can we all agree that September has just about the best variety and quantity of fruits and veggies of all the months? Maybe even combined? We’re already (almost) to the middle of September – is it fall or is it still summer? I love that the weather can’t quite decide. Cool, dewy mornings and […]
Roasted Persimmon Butter with Buckwheat-Teff Scones
I think I have finally found the spread to beat all others – Roasted Persimmon Butter. Over on Instagram, I mentioned that I have been buying persimmons for the past few years, but I never really knew what to do with them. I admitted I felt a little intimidated by them. They are very pretty, but I honestly had no idea where to start. I feel like it’s pretty obvious what to do with say, […]
Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Granola
We’ve been on a granola kick lately. My daughters have discovered that they love it more than anything else on top of tangy yogurt or in a bowl with a bit of milk. I’m more for grabbing a handful here and there for a little snack, or dipping apples in almond butter and then coating them in granola. A few years ago I started making Peanut Butter Chocolate Granola. I was amazed how quickly that […]
Cranberry Pear Acai Bowl
Fall is just flying by. How is it already nearly the end of the month?! Our new place has so many windows and our yard and our neighbors’ yards have so many trees. I’m sitting in my office now admiring the different fall colors I see out my window. As much as I love warm weather, I still think fall steals my heart. The colors alone! We’ve been discussing the changing seasons with our kids […]
Tropical Granola
Man, I love homemade granola. Sometimes I forget how much. These days I usually start my day with a green smoothie or juice rather than a bowl of cereal. But honestly, by mid-morning I’m in need of a snack and this tropical granola kind of hits the spot in a way nothing else can. I’ve been making my own for several years now and I love doing it because I am able to control what […]
Orange Cardamom Gluten Free Yeast Raised Cake
This recipe was developed in partnership with Red Star Yeast who is sponsoring this post. Thank you for supporting our sponsors so we can bring you high-quality content. Last fall I first started experimenting with making yeasted gluten free rolls at home. I have really loved delving into gluten free baking and the experimentation process. It has yielded some great results after many attempts to get it just right. It’s difficult to get the texture […]
Acai Bowl Recipe with Kale and Berries
A few years ago I fell in love with acai bowls. I had never heard of an “acai bowl,” but I was definitely acquainted with acai. We had previously had it in sorbet mixed with chocolate or blueberries, or in powder form. I went to a smoothie bar and tried my first acai bowl. A typcial acai bowl is made with acai puree, bananas, some kind of liquid (usually soy milk), and maybe some other […]
Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls
A big thank you to Red Star Yeast for sponsoring this post. YOU GUYS. I did it! I finally perfected gluten-free cinnamon rolls after weeks of trying. Virtual high fives and fist bumps for everyone! Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls are something that’s been alluding me. I just could not get it right. I realized what my problem was and once I corrected it, I was on my way to cinnamon roll heaven. This is another recipe […]
