At this point, it's pretty clear to most that if I have bananas turning on the counter, I'm probably going to make banana bread with them - or something similar. Since we're not quite into the holiday season yet, I'm lacking in some supplies like all-purpose flour. We buy a large bag from BJ's Wholesale… Continue reading Recipe: Flourless Banana Muffins (gluten-free, oil-free)
It's passed Labor Day and I feel confident to indulge in everything fall. I know there's about three arguments to the pumpkin spice ideas - all for it, all against, "you do you". I dabble between all for it and "you do you". I drink hot drinks all year round. There's something about hot coffee… Continue reading Recipe: Pumpkin Pie Spice, Apple Pie Spice and Everything Nice
Last weekend we bought a bag of avocados and while I am all for eating half an avocado with a meal, I've also wanted to find some new recipes. I found a number that looked intriguing, but many were salads. I'm not anti-salad, I freaking love salad, but I also really love sandwiches and this… Continue reading Recipe: Grilled Chicken Wrap with Homemade Honey Mustard Sauce
I feel like many people who utilize Pinterest and other platforms to get inspiration for recipes there will never truly be enough days to have time to make them all. As someone who also appreciates fitness and living a healthy lifestyle, it can also be hard to find a way to balance the competing ideas.… Continue reading Recipe: Paleo-ish Zucchini Bread
I had never poached eggs until this weekend and holy moly - it's a lot easier than I thought it would be. My favorite egg style is sunny-side up followed by over easy. I won't pass up a frittata or an omelette though. Scrambled is fine, but I guess to me, it's a bit too… Continue reading Recipe: How to poach eggs and Salmon Benedict
There's a few things going on in the kitchen lately, or not going on in the kitchen. It's been so hot that's it's been more reasonable to grill outside a few meals at a time. We've been trying to "eat down" the freezer. We do buy extra things when they're on sale since we have… Continue reading Recipe: Baked Pesto White Fish
I won't lie, whenever I see smoothie bowls online I am always envious because they also look delicious and perfectly put together. I don't know about you, but fruit doesn't keep me very full so it's something I typically pair with something else. I may have berries in my oats or a banana with my… Continue reading Recipe: Smoothie bowl
Guys, it's hot outside, which means it's hot inside. It's not just hot, it's humid and muggy. Last year when we moved into our apartment, aside from the fitness center, one of the outdoor amenities that really excited us, was the grilling. We have access to both charcoal and gas grills. While charcoal is perfect… Continue reading Recipe: Grilled Chicken Shawarma Skewers
Updated - One of the most popular posts on this blog is my recipe for protein pancakes using Kodiak Cakes pancake mix from a few years ago. Kodiak Cakes Powercakes protein pancake mix was released in 2013, well before I created my recipe in 2015, but had been tough to find locally. So that recipe… Continue reading Recipe: Banana Bread Protein Pancakes for 2
Updated - I know that there's more to breakfast other than eggs, but I really do like them. I don't think I've met an egg style that I didn't enjoy. They're a staple breakfast because like pancakes mixes, they're quick and easy and filling. As I'm thinking about this recipe, I'm realizing that while I… Continue reading Recipe: Egg Stuffed Red Onion
