Peanut Butter & Banana Oatmeal
Oh, sweet Sunday, thank you for being here again. Time for some planning and resetting for the new week and just chilling. I hope you’re off to a pleasant day and getting caught up as well. This past weekend was fairly busy for me because we did some entertaining for me which go me in the kitchen more than what’s been usual recently. Lots and lots of cooking (and dishes) but I must say I enjoyed it all because it’s been a while since I’ve cooked for so many and it used to be a normal part of my week. Here’s the recipe for this really easy pb banana oatmeal. Breakfast is…

Lightened-Up Butternut Squash Curry + Forbidden Black Rice
Is there still time to cram in a few more healthy January recipes? Good, because I’ve got one today that I’m hoping you’l love. I don’t make Indian food nearly as often as I should. I thoroughly enjoy all the flavors involved in curries but the reason I don’t add these recipes to the menu too often is because not everyone in my house likes them like I do. Hey, that’s fine with me by the way, as a foodie I’ve accepting taking the teasing I sometimes get from my family about some of the strange foods I love. For example, I love brussels sprouts. I know it’s not everyone’s favorite, but…

Peanut Butter Banana Protein Pancakes
Hey guys, anyone want pancakes for breakfast? Or lunch, or dinner, or even (my favorite) pancakes for dessert! I’m the type of person who doesn’t discriminate foods based on what mealtime category they fall into. I’ll mix and match what I like and eat any kind of food anytime of day. In fact, as I’m typing out this post I’m thinking about how good veggies sound for breakfast so I’ll probably go for something savory this morning. But pancakes, now pancakes are definitely a great example of a food that works well anytime of the day. Also, I know I know I’ve emphasized my peanut butter affair over and over, but…

Crunchy Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Bites
Hey again, friends! Anyone looking for some more snack ideas or the perfect weekend recipe to whip up on a lazy afternoon? Well, I got ya covered on both points. Check, and check.

I mean, come on, who doesn’t love cookie dough? Have you ever had one of those moments when you’re imaging something super decadent and then reality sets in and…

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…

Thai Peanut Quinoa Macro Bowls (Vegan+GF)
That moment when you write a great (long) post to share with your peoples and it all gets erased……….uh huh…….yeah. I’m so sorry guys but I literally just lost my entire post, thank you crappy internet connection!

Well, instead of trying to remember everything I said I’m just going to shorten it down and tell you that we’re going…

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…
