Breakfast is definitely not my favorite meal of the day. Eggs are decent. Yogurt and granola is alright. It's not that I dislike any of it, per se - I would just rather have lunch or dinner food. However, there are a few exceptions, one of which is pancakes! (The other is bacon...because...bacon.) Pancakes are just so delicious! They are fluffy and yummy and fun to make and eat ???. Downside = ...
Reese’s Cup Oatmeal [21 Day Fix]
Holy chocolate cravings, this has been an intense week. Usually I don't crave chocolate suuuuper bad. My husband would laugh out loud at that statement. Let me amend...I don't crave chocolate every day, but when I do it gets IINNN-tense. Read: THIS WEEK. Man oh man. There is this superfood shake you drink in the morning throughout the 21 Day Fix, and I drink the chocolate version. This shake has, ...
Single Serving Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate
It's hot chocolate season!! It's chilly outside, the car windows are frosted over each morning, and it's the perfect weather for a blanket, hoodie, fire place, and big steaming mug of hot chocolate. Hot chocolate means two things to me: Winter...aka Christmas...aka snow...(love snow). Comfort. I mean, come on. Is there anything more comforting than cup of hot cocoa? And the addition of ...
Apple Pie Cookies with Cinnamon Whipped Cream
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness. THESE ARE THE BEST THINGS EVER!! As you all know by now, I am not a baker. Desserts are not my strong point, so I had very little faith that these little cuties would turn out well. But they were ammmmaazziinnngggg. I'm not sure how much credit I can actually take for these since I used pre-made pie crust and canned apple pie filling (....I am ...

Roasted Apples with Cinnamon Peanut Butter Sauce
Apples and peanut butter = such a classic combo. Seth LOVES apples - we always get a huge bag when we go to the grocery store that I never think he will actually finish in a week, but he always does! "An apple a day keeps the doctor away"...he, his kids, and his grand-kids should be doctor free for their entire lives because of his apple consumption. I like the taste of apples, but the skin ...
Individual 4th of July Fruit Pizzas
It's almost the 4th of July! Which means red, white, and blue clothes, fireworks, hotdogs, hamburgers, and cold beer. Especially fireworks. I'm a big fan. But who isn't? There is this place near Fort Riley that apparently has AMAZING 4th of July fireworks. Like...unreal amazing. Several of Seth's coworkers said that they've lived in a lot of different places and seen a lot of different firework ...
2 Ingredient, 5 Minute Strawberry Frozen “Yogurt”
Right now my weather app says it is 96 degrees outside but feels like 106. My first question is, how can they measure how hot it "feels?" Seriously. How? I guess I don't have a second question. The point is...it's hot. Which is why this cold, fresh, healthy frozen yogurt is so perfect right now! This recipe today was originally supposed to be chocolate cashew butter. Why did I not post ...
Superfood Popsicles
These oddly colored popsicles are the perfect treat for spring and summer! The base is my favorite smoothie recipe, so I was guaranteed to love the frozen version. The mixture of strawberries, spinach, banana, Greek yogurt, and coconut water is seriously the most delicious combo for the smoothie. Because strawberries and bananas are naturally sweet fruit, you don't need to add any honey or other ...
Fudgy Gluten-Free Brownies
You're gunna love me when you try these. I mean these are good...like seriously, seriously, WEIRDLY good. Weirdly good considering they are made up mostly of black beans and coconut oil. I know what you are thinking... Because I was thinking the same thing. There is NO way that these brownies taste nearly as good as actual brownies, let alone taste good at all. I even said to Seth before I ...
