Coconut Key Lime Bread
Last week a dream came true for me. This dream has been 2 years in the making. Not long after I found out I was pregnant with Cuatro in the summer of 2012, a terrible longing for the beach came over me. Like, a crazy longing. To be at the beach, by myself...with my girlfriends. (My husband is a mountain guy, so a beach vacation with him might be a bad idea!) When you have … [Read more...]

Homemade Freezer Friendly Whole Wheat Pizza Crust
Our family loves pizza. Even the dairy free kids. (They get special cheese.) There is just something about pizza. The crust, the sweeter sauce, the cheese, the flavor explosions from the toppings. Or maybe this Americanized Italian food somehow transports us to a world across the ocean to the boot shaped country...and we dream and long for a vacation or trip there. {Oh … [Read more...]
Freezer Friendly Sweet & Savory Breakfast Muffins
Having a stash of goodies is essential for making it through busy weeknights and weekday mornings! I love having breakfast muffins in the freezer for a quick 'grab n go' breakfast. I recently heard a stat from a trusted source that the average American spends 7 minutes on breakfast. All parts of breakfast...preparing it, cooking it (or not!), eating it. 7 minutes. That's … [Read more...]
Whole Wheat Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins
Ok, friend. You have to make these. They are one of my kids' most popular requests for lunch boxes...and I saved them for the end of our 31 Days of School Lunchbox Ideas. I sent them on their first day of school this week. I had stashed a few in the very back of the freezer, so they would actually make it to the first day of school. I dropped 2 into each lunch box and sent them … [Read more...]
Freezer Friendly Blueberry Oatmeal Pancakes
It's that time of year when I just start wanting to stock the freezer. It's like nesting when you're pregnant times 4. When it comes to the morning hours, I need to do all that I can to survive them. And one of those things is stocking the freezer (and getting in the habit again of doing this weekly!) with pancakes, muffins, etc. for breakfast and lunchboxes. I had some … [Read more...]
Pumpkin Spice French Toast Bake
I may have gotten a little carried away over the holidays when it came to buying canned pumpkin. The last two years there was a canned pumpkin shortage and I didn't want to run out of it in the middle of the year when there are no cans of pumpkin in the grocery store. Now I find myself with a large stockpile of canned pumpkin, just in case. We make Pumpkin Chocolate … [Read more...]
Red, White & Blue Pancakes
I love festive food on holidays. I love celebrating our country's independence with lots of red, white and blue foods...and in this case it's pancakes for breakfast with strawberries, blueberries and ground almonds. Red. White. Blue. BOOM. I plan on making these again in a few weeks when we celebrate our Independence Day here in the US. Hope you enjoy! What are your … [Read more...]
