Gluten-Free Honey Oat Protein Bites

About a year ago, when I still lived in central Illinois, I was given this recipe from a friend and fellow Mommy.  She was on a mission to get more fit and make some long lasting, healthy changes in her life.  One of her discoveries was this recipe that she got off…

Whiteout Smoothie

Have I ever mentioned how much I love white? I don’t like to to wear it-that is just an accident waiting to happen-but I love it in my house, my dishes, my kitchen, my decor, and now, in my smoothies.  My cupboards are white, my appliances are white, and I collect milk…

Brown Sugar Banana Nut Muffins

I see Banana Nut Muffins as a pretty standard type of baked good.  When I set out to create this recipe, I wanted all the great flavor but with just a tweak (just a smidgen) of an update.  So I made it heart healthy but kept the classic brown sugar taste that…

Peach & Banana Sunrise Smoothie: Back to School Post #6

Finally!  A recipe!  I have been busy in my kitchen, but canning and freezing, not cooking real food.  But after some last minute tweaking, this recipe is ready for you! I know that a recipe for a smoothie can be a bit of an oxymoron; smoothies are generally a-throw whatever you have…

Smokey Smoothie-Blueberries, Bananas, & Spinach

This smoothie is what I have been making lately so naturally, I want to share it with you!  It gets frozen in these little thingamabobs and then added to my daughters lunch.  My boys-especially my almost 1 year old-suck down whatever can’t be frozen, and I just end up trying to steal…

Rum Banana Bread: Fruit & Booze

Did the title of this post reel you in?  I must admit…that was my secret plan…. (or not so secret if I am telling you) *Evil laugh* while ringing hands… The first time I tried this bread I was intrigued.  The extra step of cooking the bananas in the rum was kind…

Gluten Free Apple Carrot Muffins

Sometimes, recipes just surprise you. I had no idea I was going to love these so much.  I had no idea that I would end up completely redoing these muffins over five different batches.  I had no clue that I would grow kind of addicted to the texture of almond flour.  I…
