Can we just take a second to talk about how hummus might be the most versatile dip ever? You scoop it up with pita, dunk some veggies in there, spread it on a sandwich, roll it up into a tortilla… and the flavors. THE FLAVORS. Normally I’m all about garlic. Gimme all the garlic. But…
Snacks
Let's be honest, we all love snacking! But just because you're having a bite between meals doesn't mean it has to be unhealthy. These banana bread protein muffins are just 60 calories each.
If you're whipping up snacks for a party then you have to make these Greek nachos. They're guaranteed to be a hit!
Spicy Mexican Street Corn Salad
This Spicy Mexican Street Corn Salad is my favorite dish to serve with tacos or fajitas! It’s great for a crowd because you can make it ahead of time and you can make it as spicy or as mild as you like. This recipe serves enough for a crowd but you can easily divide it…
5 Ingredient Granola Bars
I’m a snacker. I always have been. Maybe it’s because I love food and I’m too impatient to wait until mealtime but whatever the reason, snacks are essential in this house. Back in my high school days, I pretended that granola bars were a “healthy” snack when they were really just a few oats crammed…
Vegan Beer Bread
This 6-ingredient beer bread recipe is so easy to make and it tastes amazing! You can have fresh bread in no time. So we still don’t have a bathroom. This week’s home improvement project has taken a little longer than we expected, due to some unforeseen events. (We didn’t anticipate having to completely re-do the subfloor.) But…
Cinnamon Applesauce Granola
I’ve been all about the apples lately. I’ve also been on a bit of a granola kick. I’ve been enjoying it on top of my yogurt bowls as well as straight out of the bag. I decided to try making granola with applesauce in order to get those clumpy pieces without needing to using so…
Lightened Up Zucchini Bread
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how versatile zucchini is? It can be spiralized into noodles, sliced into fries, or blended up into muffins. Sweet? Yes. Savory? Yes. Healthy? Of course. Is there anything it can’t do? (Ok fine, I’m sure there are some things it can’t do.) Another bonus? It’s easy on…
Gluten Free Strawberry Muffins
These gluten free strawberry muffins are so moist & delicious! The mini size is perfect for snacking! I might have been a little ambitious. I was browsing the new Wegman’s grocery store and I spotted a deal on strawberries. I just can’t pass up a sale. So I grabbed the 2lb container and put it…
Pineapple Chia Ice Pops
I’m so excited to share this Pineapple Chia Ice Pop recipe with you because summer is in full swing and these temperatures have me craving something cold. Rather than reach for a high fructose corn syrup sweetened treat, try these naturally sweetened ice pops! The best part about this recipe is that it takes literally…
Spicy Brussels Sprout Chips
If you’re a fan of kale chips, you’ll love these Brussles sprout chips! They’re crunchy and spicy, making them the TV snack. Did I mention they’re healthy? Alex and I have been enjoying the long Memorial Day weekend, despite a bit of rain. We spent Saturday in Charlottesville enjoying the views from a vineyard and…
Whole Wheat Flatbread Recipe (No Yeast Required)
I love flatbread. Pita, naan, wraps, literally anything in the flatbread category. But for some reason, I’d never tried making my own. So I decided to tweak my olive oil bread recipe into a flatbread recipe and I figured while I was changing it up, I should test out a whole wheat version. In just…
