    Sea Salt & Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan)

    July 2, 2019

    If I ever run out of new ways to reinvent the chocolate chip cookie I’ll probably have to stop blogging all together. Like “Let’s pack it up guys my work’s done here.” But seriously, these are gonna be a popular addition to my chocolate chip cookie recipe collection. If you haven’t noticed I’ve created a few. Lol.🍪🍪🍪🍪 This is one if f those times where I had a random idea that I just needed to make as soon as possible. You know, like those great ideas you get in the middle of the night or in the shower. Well, this was one of those. Besides, sea salt and tahini just…

    Raw Energy Snack Bites 2 Ways (Allergen Friendly)

    June 12, 2018

    So what’s special about these and why are they allergen friendly? Well, in almost every similar recipe I’ve seen for these they’re based on nuts or nut butters and in this case these are nut free. They’re also gluten free and vegan too. Okay, so before you say “Hold up, why no nuts!?!?”, just know that I’m halfway thinking the same thing myself. And, no, I didn’t recently develop a nut allergy, and I certainly won’t be getting over my nut butter affair anytime soon. However, I do have some friends that I know have different intolerances and I just personally love switching it up and challenging the norm sometimes.…

    Mint Chocolate Chip Muddy Buddies

    March 1, 2018

    Happy March you guys! I’ll do you guys a favor and skip talking about how it got here so fast, even though it did, and get right to the recipe today. I don’t know if I’m the only one, but I always seem to forget about any holidays in March because there aren’t any major ones. I honestly don’t consider St. Patrick’s Day much of a holiday, but who am I to pass up a chance to make some Irish recipes and minty chocolate treats? Now that, that I can do. So I’ve made a few versions of this stuff (btw, what do you call it? I’ve heard it “puppy…

We have already taken so many pictures and we haven’t even gotten there yet.   I talk about living in Chile quite a bit but as that’s where I started blogging it’s hard not to bring it up sometimes. For example, something that always impressed me during my time in South America, is how real and abundant their produce always was and I found many fruits and veggies that I’d never even heard of. Well, something I…

    Tex-Mex Twice Baked Potato Skins (Vegan+GF)

    September 14, 2015

    How do you feel about potato skins? I’ve always been a huge fan of making use of extras and scraps when I’m cooking. I mean, those things can really add up when you do a lot of cooking at home. Potato skins are one of the things that I hate throwing away when making recipes such as mashed potatoes, or baked potatoes. Personally, I’d just leave the skin on for the recipe but not everyone likes they’re mashed/baked potatoes that way so there’s usually some waste. That’s why I love the idea to make a whole separate recipe with them and I was feeling some Mexican vibes. I don’t know…

    Ukrainian Sunflower Seed Halva (Vegan+GF)

    June 2, 2015

    So last week was sister’s birthday and I wanted to try something sweet that would be nostalgic to her and the first thing that came to mind was the sunflower halva that she used to love. I guess I should mention, for those of you who don’t know this, that two of my sisters were born in Ukraine. You’d never guess it now though because they seem every bit as North American as I am. Halva it’s not a common thing in the States but, as it happens, there are a bunch of Ukrainians that live in the Spokane area which is really close to where we live in Idaho. I…

    Warm Barley Salad with Roasted Butternut Squash & Brussels Sprouts (Vegan)

    April 22, 2015

    I know a lot of you are getting ready for bathing suit wearing, lemonade drinking, and all of the other things that come with summer but down south we’re all pulling out our fuzzy sweatshirts and wool socks. Salads are one of the things I love about the warm half of the year. You can throw in whatever you want and it’s a great way to take advantage of all of the fresh produce available, but in the fall and winter it’s not as appealing to eat cold  veggies. I don’t know about you, but I crave cozy meals when I’m cold and warm salads are just that, super cozy.…

  • So it's no secret that the saddest day of the year is December 26th. I know, I'm totally ruining the magic of the season by thinking about it already. Here's the thing, I've decided that maybe if I start anticipating the day ahead of time I can try to make it a little less sad.

These sweet crumbly muffins, I feel like they’re just the answer you need for all that nog you’re probably gonna have leftover in your fridge. I'm obviously referring to almond nog for me but whatever kind you've got will work here. (Did you know they make so many kinds these day? Coconut, soy, almond....) I mean, if you share any of my enthusiasm for the holidays then maybe you’ll understand when I say how downright depressing it is for me to have anything like that around more than a few days after the season ends. Well, and if you aren’t a fan of nog in the first place then maybe you can at least try to imagine feeling that way. Like I said, it’s depressing.

  • The 12 day countdown is here! My goodness is the season flying by. At least the season has been everything I love this year. Our snow arrived just on time to ensure we'll at least have some white on Christmas day. Also, I've been listening to Christmas playlists on repeat. Oh, and I've been loving the local lights and decor. The CDA resort puts up a stunning display every year that draws people from all over and the surrounding businesses are getting all festive as well. I've been down to the resort twice already. 😍✨ Over the next week and a half the streets and stores will be filled with last-minute shoppers trying to finish their lists. If you're anything like me you at least have a bunch of wrapping to finish (I definitely do right now). Anyway, I just wanted to say that I hope you're having an amazing season. Don't forget to enjoy as many moments of it as you can and step back from all the chaos to just be with friends and family.

  • The decade is almost over guys!

I know everyone’s posting retrospective photos, talking about goals for the next decade, and basically just wondering how it passed so quickly. Me? I’m honestly not too concerned about it. I mean, it’s exciting to be starting a new global chapter for sure. I guess I’m just not so into focusing on new year’s (or in this case new decade’s) resolutions as if that’s the only time to make big life decisions. I sort of prefer to make them on a daily basis.

Besides, I’ve never been the greatest at sticking to arbitrary resolutions set out of obligation. I think if something matters to you you’ll stick with it and go for it regardless of how long it takes you to get there or if it’s written on some list. Life has a way of happening how it wants to anyway, so planning it so intently is kind of pointless.

I'm just so excited we've finally got some snow on the ground. It's a winter wonderland outside. ❄️😍🌨️
  • So there’s a time and a place for all things pumpkin this time of year, but if I’m being honest I prefer using sweet potatoes in baking and cooking. It’s a little but sweeter, it’s much easier to prepare from scratch, and it adds amazing texture to your baked goods.

I had a bunch of leftover sweet potatoes after Thanksgiving was over this year so, me being me, that meant baking time. If you’ve never tried a sweet potato bread before, honey, you are missing out. I love adding pecans as well but it you prefer to keep it simple they’re optional. The brown sugar glaze is a must though. It’s not you’re typical icing but it’s simple and it compliments this bread really well.

  • So it's almost mid-December my friends, holy jingle bells, how did that happen?!?! If you haven't gotten into the kitchen to make something festive yet, what are you doing with your life? I mean, it's Christmas cookie crunch-time, people!!! I love making the traditional simple things like sugar cookies and fudge, but I also like to make some fancier things too. Obviously gingerbread houses are a must and then these homemade caramels are something I like to make during the season as well. They're require a little more patience but they're a crowd favorite and make a perfect handmade gift.

  • Comfort food time! So when I was growing up my family's Christmas Eve tradition was always to get together with grandparents and cousins and have chili for dinner. It sort of changed at some point as me and my siblings got older which is really sad. However, I still find myself thinking of chili as a perfect holiday season meal. 
My favorite variation of chili is one my mom used to make with a little bit of Mexican flair. I sort of switched things up from her recipe (sorry mom but I left out the chicken 😜). It's amazing with some homemade cornbread and lots of cilantro of course.

  • Okay, so I haven't even started my Christmas shopping and the countdown to Christmas is ticking away. Yikes! Please tell me I'm not the only busy person that isn't on top of things this season.

When it comes down to those really difficult to buy for people, I sometimes prefer to make gifts myself. Even if a store-bought gift might be more convenient and cheaper, a handmade creation is always going to have way more gift value. Besides, when you take the time to make gifts you have the ability to tailor them specifically to the friends and loved ones in your life.

Anyway, these hot cocoa mixes are not really a new idea, they've been done a billion times. I was just hoping these flavor combinations might inspire you to think outside the box and create even more unique cocoa mixes. These are thoughtful, fairly inexpensive, and not to mention super aesthetic!

  • For some reason I find it so much less fun to post savory things during the month of December. Oh yeah, that's because all I want to do is share Christmas cookies! Of course that's not very practical so here's something savory.

So traditional Mexican tacos are always delicious, but if you're ever in the mood for some fusion these Asian inspired tacos are a fun way to change things up!
