Rainbow Veggie Summer Rolls & Tahini Orange Dipping Sauce
Hey guys, I’ve got a super fun way for us to get our daily veggies to share! So you know how last weekend I promised I’d have some healthier stuff soon? Well, I’m really hoping that these summer rolls fit the bill because, I’ve gotta tell you, all of these colors have me pretty excited over here. I adore photographing natural colors and I even tend to get a little carried away with it sometimes. These for example, I took about a trillion photos of them and they’ve definitely been one of the most fun recipes I’ve shot pics of recently. Talk about tasting the rainbow! Okay, so these summer rolls are so easy to…

Vegan Chocolate Chunk Brownies & “Nutella” Fudge Frosting
You know how there’s like the good recipes and then there’s the great ones? Take these Vegan Chocolate Chunk Brownies for an example. I think the distinguishing factor is whether or not the recipe gets remembered and requested again or if it quickly falls into that lonely pit of recipe oblivion and is just a one time thing. Obviously there are no hard fast rules here, and there is definitely plenty of grey area. In general if it doesn’t make an impression then it doesn’t make the favorites list and become an instant classic. This post is all about Vegan Chocolate Chunk Brownies I think you’ve probably all figured out by now that…

Brown Butter Caramel Snickers Cookie Bars (Vegan)
Hey, Hey, HEY! I’ve got something to help you guys get over the mid-week slump so obviously that means chocolate is involved! Oh, and guess what? We got new puppies last weekend! I want to share some pics later this week so I was going to wait to tell you, but I just couldn’t. They are absolutely adorables you guys! You may remember me mentioning a while back when we got our first two Great Pyrenees pups. No? Well, if not then now you know and I guess it has been a long time now. Whoa, actually now that I think about it it’s been a year and a half! Those two boys…

Almond Joy Pudding Parfaits & Coconut Sable Cookie Dippers
Can I spend just a second to discuss how much I love food that’s layered in pretty little jars and glasses? It’s just way more fun. Something about a bunch of yummy ingredients with contrasting flavors and textures coming together in one dish is way more exciting than if you were to eat each thing separately. Although, if you were one of those kids that got freaked out about your peas touching your mashed potatoes than you may disagree with me on this. As much as I hate to say it, I don’t think we can work out as friends because there’s simply no way I’m backing down on my position here. Jar…

Tiki Bars! Nutty Tropical Fruit Granola Bars (Vegan + GF)
Hey guys!, So tell me, how was your weekend? Did you do anything fun and exciting for daddy day? Oh, and can you even believe that it’s already summer/winter?!?!? I feel like someone is skipping calendar pages or something. I’m not gonna lie though, I’m really excited to be entering a new season, even if winter is my least favorite one from down here where I live. Things have slowed down a lot for me these last few weeks and my days have been feeling kind of squished and strung together in monotonous tedium. It’s only because there isn’t much going on this time of year but the repetitive routine is starting to…

Cookies and Cream Chocolate Pop-Tarts
You know those childhood cartoons where the characters have a goody-goody angel voice and the naughty, not-so-angelic, one fighting on their shoulders? What, didn’t you ever watch Tom and Jerry growing up? Well, I’d love to tell you that my metaphorical inner angel voice won out this time guys, but………then there were these pop-tarts and um……………yeah. In brainstorming over this idea I’d considered just making my pop-tarts inspired by milk’s favorite cookies, but I kind of didn’t want to just stop there. I also felt like there should be some actual sandwich cookies going into these at the same time. So basically, these are an oreo version of a pop-tart since you’ve got…

Strawberry (Ridiculously) Tall Mini Cakes (Vegan)
I’m taking a little break from my seasonal reality and dreaming of Spring flowers and Summer picnics today. It’s getting so close to the first day of being technically Winter here and that means a ton of rain. I’m not gonna lie though, complain as I might about the fact that we don’t get snow here, I’m feeling pretty grateful right about now for the more mild temperatures of living where we do and its relation to sea level. Yeah, like I just pointed out, it’s not even winter yet and I’m already getting ready for it to get warm again. I have to tell you, summers in Patagonia are the best! But I…
