It’s Saturday morning, and I’m sitting on my patio sipping coffee and dreaming about breakfast. Most of my meals start off this way, with an idea percolating in the back of my mind. It might be an ingredient or a specific cuisine, that will gradually take shape into a recipe. And before long, I’m in […]

Creamy, luscious, melt-in-your-mouth. These are a few of the first words that pop into my head when I think about these peanut butter cookie dough truffles. Coated in a thin layer of chocolate, and just a pinch of salt, they are the perfect dessert to finish off a meal. If you’ve ever made edible cookie […]
Once the weather changes, all I want to do is bake. Holiday flavors are my favorite, because NOTHING smells better than cinnamon as it is cooking. When it comes to easy, festive desserts, crumbles are hands down, the best way to go; they are warm, gooey, and there’s no finicky pie crust needed! This healthy […]
Even though I live in sunny California, this weekend was miserable and gloomy, not quite the blizzard in the Rocky Mountains, but still gross. To combat the dropping temperatures, I baked all day, and the results were these easy vegan spelt biscuits.
On a chilly winter day, there is nothing better than baking and cake, agreed? I made this paleo applesauce tea cake this week, when the wind was howling, and all I wanted was to bundle up, sip my favorite cuppa, and enjoy a few bites of something sweet.

Instead of using a cup and a […]
Let’s step into the wonderful world of meal-prepping for a minute. No, I’m not talking about five containers of rice, steamed broccoli and grilled chicken that you will somehow have to choke down over the next week. But rather these utterly addictive mint chocolate pretzel protein bars.
This recipe for one bite vegan cookies was born out of a desire to recreate a cookie mix that I had found at Trader Joes the other day. It was completely vegan, paleo, anti-inflammatory, easy, and most importantly, delicious. My only issue with the boxed mix, was that it was too sweet. So I set […]
Many times in my kitchen, disaster strikes, as I attempt to create new treats, experiment with trending ingredients, or accidentally dump in too much baking soda. That was never the case with these oatmeal zucchini protein waffles; they were a dream right from the get go. I have now made them three times since then, […]
As summer slowly comes to an end, I find myself wanting to spend as much time outside as possible, trying to soak up the last of the August sun. Baked paleo pancakes have been my go to breakfast, which allows me to be productive in the mornings. This 4 ingredient chocolate hazelnut spread is my […]
