I’m a little obsessed with peanut sauce. Who is with me? It makes everything taste amazing. If you love peanut sauce, you HAVE to try this recipe! It pairs so well with fluffy bulgur wheat and spring veggies like asparagus and peas. This is another one of those recipes that was inspired by things in…

Savory Whole Wheat Waffles with Fried Eggs and Avocado
I’m on a massive runny yolk kick. I refused to eat an egg with a runny yolk for twenty six years of my life. My egg would always be squashed flat on the pan cooking a good two minutes longer than my husbands. Then one day I took my sister out for breakfast to a…
Thai Quinoa Cabbage Rolls (Vegetarian)
I somehow ended up with 3 heads of cabbage in my fridge. Not my fault. I like cabbage just as much as the next person, but I don’t have a ton of go-to cabbaged based recipes. I mean, I have a few, but not enough for 3 heads of it! But I have never let…
Quick and Easy Green Curry with Veggies and Chickpeas
In my last post I talked a little about menu planning. I usually have a menu and I buy ingredients according to that menu. And usually buy some extra produce that I can use for snacks and lunches or just in case I can’t make it to the store in between menu plans. This week…
Best Ever Breakfast Bowl with Homemade Granola, Greek Yogurt, Fresh Berries, and Pistachio Brittle (Inspired by North Star Café)
How would you like to wake up to this? It’s a bowl full of pure joy. In August I went to paradise. When I say paradise, you are probably thinking of somewhere in Hawaii or the Caribbean, but I am talking about the little town of Houghton, Michigan (in the summer). It’s a tiny town…

National Breakfast Month: Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Baked Oatmeal (No Added Sugar!)
Funny story. I keep the oats on top of my fridge. You know, in that card board-ish cylinder container with a plastic lid. I reached up to pull them down to make this oatmeal recipe. I was completely shocked to get a face full of oats. I had my glasses on, so I didn’t get…
National Breakfast Month: Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Breakfast Shake, General Mill’s BFAST, and a GIVEAWAY!!!
I have this really cool friend. Her name is Meg. She is really good at making sugar cookies. We swap cookie cutters, squeezy bottles, and food coloring markers. If I need a super good variety of big cupcake frosting tips, I call Meg. If I need some hazelnut flavoring, I call Meg. If I need…
National Breakfast Month: Mango Coconut Overnight Oatmeal
Happy September! I am so ready for fall to be here. It is my favorite season. I am excited to show my daughter the fall colors for the first time, to wear my long-sleeved shirts, to be surrounded by football this and that, to drink apple cider, to roast vegetables without the whole house being…
