Acai Dragon Fruit Berry Smoothie Bowl (Vegan+GF)
I’m pretty sad to say it but I think yesterday was my last day of skiing for the season. We’ve been going up to Schweitzer Mountain Resort so much this season and I’m proud to report I’ve improved a lot on my form. All through February the weather was bitterly cold and we got dumped on with snow but this week has seen a huge shift in temperatures. I think it’s safe to say that yesterday was clearly the end of the cold. The sky was crystal blue, the rooftops were dripping streams of melting snow, and everyone on the slopes was shedding their layers throughout the day. In fact, I’m currently…

Chocolate Chip French Toast Muffins (Vegan+GF)
Am I the only one who hates seeing the perfectly good bread heels go in the trash? Well, if you’re with me on this then you’ll be extra excited about this recipe because it’s a perfect way to use them and any stale bread for that matter. Don’t worry though, if bread waste isn’t a problem for you this recipe can be made with fresh bread also. As for the chocolate chips, they can be replaced with a bunch of different things. Whether you just don’t like chocolate with cinnamon, have an allergy, or are following a low fat diet there are plenty of other options. I personally love the chocolate but if…

The BEST Pumpkin Pancakes and Maple Nut Butter Spread (Vegan+GF)
These just might be the BEST pumpkin pancakes ever. Oh, look at that, I mentioned that in the title. 😉 I’ve been really loving oats lately so I decided these would highly feature oats to make them healthy. This post is all about the best pumpkin pancakes recipe. During the Summer I felt like I could eat allllllll the fruit but the moment the weather shifted all I’ve wanted are warm foods. Now plain old oats can seem really boring to some people, and that’s okay. However, if you want to get the best of both worlds by eating your healthy oats and doing it in a way you love, make oatmeal pancakes!…

Glazed Cinnamon Apple Fritters (Vegan+GF)
Have you ever tried to imagine the world without doughnuts? I’ll tell ya, it’s a very lonely and depressing reality. On the other hand, when there is cinnamon and apples involved in said doughnuts it’s pretty much heaven on earth. Me and apples are kind of having a moment right now. Yep, I live in an area that happens to grow my favorite apples on the planet, pink ladies! Yay-yuh! It’s kind of ironic too, because we often buy Chilean apples from Costco here in the States, and I never would have imagined that I’d have lived there for over 4 years. Actually, a funny story that gets repeated in my family…

Cranberry Lemon No-Bake Granola Bars (Vegan+GF)
I don’t think you can ever have too many snack ideas in your arsenal to fight against getting hangry. After making that last post about lunch box ideas I got a lot of great feedback that you guys loved these kind of ideas. I find it really helpful even for myself to sometimes embrace simplistic ways of cooking. Or in this case, not cooking. Anyway, did you have a favorite snack bar as a kid? When I think about this a lot of things come to mind, especially chocolate things. Well, while I totally love me a good chocolate chip granola bar, I also occasionally crave something a little more tart and refreshing like…

Back To School Lunchbox Ideas (Vegan+GF)
So it’s back to school time again and that means it’s time for some lunch! Whether back-to-school time represents making lunches for yourself or your kids, it’s never a bad thing to get some great ideas. Maybe you’re needing something to take to work or you do meal preps. I’m not really in any of these categories and I still love fun lunches. So while I’m not in school anymore (thank goodness) my youngest sister is going back to school soon. It’s had me thinking about I always seem to miss this opportunity every year to share these kinds of ideas. And that’s what today’s post is. It’s definitely more about the inspiration…

Easy Oats & Seeds Rawnola (Vegan+GF)
I know what you’re thinking. “Is she seriously sharing another version of granola?” If you’ve been around for a while then you probably are familiar with my obsession with granola. That’s why it shouldn’t come as any surprise that I’ve found a new version to fall in love with. It’s “rawnola”, and it’s my new favorite thing. Okay, so basically it’s just crumbled up bliss balls or unbaked granola but it’s so good! It’s kind of a crossover between oatmeal and cereal. Plus, it’s way faster and easier than granola so you can have it ready in minutes. I think this is where the crowd will split because if you’re the type of person…
