Chocolate Chip White Bean Blender Blondies (Vegen+GF)
I’m so excited that we’re now counting down the days until Autumn officially begins! Who’s with me??? Well, okay quite honestly I am torn between excitement and a little bit of sadness to see Summer ending but that is quickly forgotten every time I think about all of my favorite upcoming things in the Fall and Winter. Warning you early, there will an obsessive amount of me talking about those things coming your way soon enough. However, for now I’ll let you off the hook and get straight into these blondies that I’m sharing with you today! So……um yeah, I REALLY did put beans in my dessert and I’m not afraid to admit…

Quick & Easy Go-to Snacks I Love (Vegan)
What I wanna know is who needs some weekend snack-spiration my friends? Because, I’m bringing it today! If you caught my last post you’ll know I’ve been moving this week. Guys, moving can be really stressful (and I should know since I’ve done it about a zillion times over the past few years), and sometimes you need faster options for food. It’s not just moving that get’s hectic though, I mean life can be crazy for so many reasons. Anything from school season, traveling, busy workweeks, or just everyday life, can have you needing a quick bite and making poor choices. I’m showing you a few ideas today to keep in mind next…

Raspberry Pomegranate Overnight Oats (Vegan+GF)
Okay guys, I think I found a new favorite way to eat oats. Before I get to the recipe though, how was your weekend? Did you do anything really fun or make any funny memories. Even if you just spent it with people you love it would be a good weekend in my opinion. So my weekend was great but the saddest thing happened. My camera’s SD card was apparently cracked without my knowledge and when I tried to pull it out of my laptop it jammed and a side piece of plastic it broke off inside. The bad news is that pulling it out pretty much destroyed my laptops SD card reader…

Chocolate Coated Nuts and Seeds Granola Bars (Vegan+GF)
Well, it has definitely been a busy week so far. I’ve been planning, cooking, planning to cook, and even planning to plan. That last one doesn’t always work out with all the different variables that inevitably change whatever I may have attempted to plan but I keep trying anyway. We’ve had some birthdays, some family events, and then this weekend we’re having a gathering with a pretty large group of friends for the evening. Of course you can’t have a good party if it doesn’t involve some good food and you know I love any opportunity to make extra special things so I’m planning for that too. All of that and then we…

Chewy Almond Flour Fudge Brownies (Vegan+GF)
Okay, wow I feel like we need some major recap time guys. It’s been forever since we had a chat and even longer since that chatting involved chocolate. I know, no chocolate? The world might as well have ended, right? So I mentioned being sick in one of my recent posts and that was very true but what I didn’t realize at the time of writing that post, was that I would end up getting sicker the next day and what’s more, end up feeling really-not-great for over one full week! Even as I’m writing this I’m fighting not to be distracted by some of the annoying leftover symptoms that just won’t seem…

Chocolate Tahini Smoothie
So It’s the weekend and I know we’ve all got life going on all around us so I’m keeping it short and sweet today. I’m just popping in to share this smoothie recipe that I made this past week because it’s one any smoothie lover is going to be thrilled with. That is, of course, unless you’re one of those fruity smoothie people who think chocolate should be strictly in desserts. You’re not, right??? This smoothie is simple, fast, and only a few ingredients. It’s also gluten free, dairy free, and vegan, and you can adapt it very easily too. For example, peanut butter is a great sub for the tahini and if…

The Best Fried Mozzarella Cheese Sticks (Vegan)
They’re melty, they’re crispy, they’re hot, and oh man are they CHEESY! Yes, I made some all-time classic snacks to share today, mozzarella sticks, baby! Mozzarella sticks are such a major crowd pleaser, it’s ridicuolous. Really, I can never believe how quickly they get devoured by my family, particularly the dudes, but actually everyone loves them. They’re essentially just a different form of pizza, right? Game-changers, that’s what these are. <-True stuff. That’s why I was so surprised the first time I tried making them with a dairy free alternative. I honestly didn’t think that it would work but they went over so well that no one could tell the difference. So…
