Hubba Yumma! I love me some Dark Chocolate Hail Merry Macaroons, but at $4-5 for a tiny bag, they don’t quite fit into the new baby budget (the one my husband wishes we had, sorry babe). Especially when I want to by like 10 bags because I could easily devour one bag in one sitting. […]
Vegan Camping Recipes
I was lucky enough to get to spend most of August and September in Denver, Colorado. It was the best. The weather was practically perfect every day. I spent as much time in the mountains as possible, and camped almost every weekend I was there. I’ve had a few people ask me what I ate out […]
Pumpkin Pie Nice Cream
Most of us know what banana “nice cream” is by now right? It’s basically the greatest thing ever. You take bananas, freeze them, blend them (just bananas, nothing else) and it creates this creamy dreamy soft serve consistency. It doesn’t need any sweetener. It’s literally just bananas, or at least that’s the oober basic version. But […]
Raw Cinnamon Rolls with Pumpkin Coconut Frosting
I was at Trader Joe’s when I stumbled across these beautiful dried banana pieces! I didn’t know what I was going to do with them just yet but I was going to try and come up with something! And then I was at a coffee shop earlier this week and there in the display case […]
Peach Tart with Toasted Nut Crumble and Ginger Infused Coconut Cream
If you read my post earlier this summer (link here) then you know that my husband and I went to the farmers market and came back with 80 peaches!! We have since eaten all those peaches and gone back 2 more times! But you can guess what my favorite fruit is 😉 And you know […]
Black Bean Brownies for the Win!
Alright y’all I don’t know why its taken me so long to make these! They are just as easy and tasty as everyone says! Let’s just say that after my husband immediately devoured 4 brownies his jaw dropped when I then told him they were made with black beans! And guess what there’s hardly any fat […]
Rainy Day Treats: Lemon Coconut Rounds & Blueberry Chia Jam
I am not good at slowing down. I don’t do it very often/ever. Just take a day to myself. Sit around. Do nothing. That is foreign to me. Why would I want to “do nothing” when there are a million things that I could do and be and see! Lucky for me though, today God […]
Simply Peachy Keen Panna Cotta
You may or may not have gotten the memo that my husband and I went to the farmers market this weekend and left with EIGHTY PEACHES! We couldn’t believe the deal we found. We had walked through all the tents and most stands were selling 5 peaches for $5-$6….and I’m now embarrassed to say I […]
Coconut Key Lime and Mango Ginger Pops!
It’s SUMMER! If you didn’t already know this about me I am a first grade teacher (by day, avid runner and kale connoisseur by night)! And it is finally here, summer in all of its glory. I have just barely been off for two weeks now and I have already filled up my days with […]
Banana Walnut Ice Cream For My Birthday!
I have been LOVING this gorgeous Texas weather we have been having lately! This past weekend I couldn’t get enough of it. I ran a race with some other teacher friends from my school district for a charity event. I worked with walkbold for their first “sister session” to raise money for a “sister” in need. […]
