• Morning Pastries Don’t Have to be Unhealthy

  

  Happy Saturday!  I love having morning pastries, especially on the weekends.  I don’t go out very often and buy them, but I do bake my own on a monthly basis.  They are so homey, warm, and delicious to pair with breakfast.  The trick is to have a small portion and not make it your WHOLE…

• Variety of Flours

  

  There are so many different types of flour, all with specific names.  What is the difference?  The most common type is all purpose flour (unbleached and bleached) you can use universally.  Great for baking, thickening sauces or soups, breakfast foods, making pastas and homemade bread, etc.  I set out to find out all the differences…

• Sesame Poppy Banana Bread

  

  Whole grain banana bread! Not too sweet and uniquely full of poppy seeds and sesame seeds! The more ripe the bananas are = more brown spots, the sweeter the bread will be. The excellent nutrition of poppy seeds per 1 oz include calcium, iron, protein, and fiber. Sesame seeds have a good source of calcium,…

• Southwestern Pasta Salad

  

  Great summertime cold pasta salad full of veggies and protein. I made this for a Cinco de Mayo party and it was a great hit! Packed with tomatoes, corn, onion, cilantro, black beans, and cheese. Wonderful for any summer gathering or party! I also want to try adding crunchy, colorful bell peppers.

• Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies

  

  These chocolate chip cookies are my go-to recipe for quick cookies. I make them as a quick dessert for at home, a get-together, or a dinner party. They are even vegan and whole wheat! These little treats are chewy, rich, and golden brown.

• “All the Good Stuff” Stuffing

  

  This dish reminds us of Thanksgiving with many flavors arising. There is the chewiness from the bread, sweetness from the dried cranberries, and earthy from the rosemary and almonds. This celebration of stuffing has great sources of vitamin A and vitamin C. There is even high protein in a single serving, about as much as…

• Oat Chocolate Chip Cookies

  

  Whole Wheat + Oats = whole grain love These are great because you can’t tell one bit that they are whole wheat, they taste fantastic.  The best part is they don’t look whole wheat so no one has to know! The cookie photo below is the larger scrumptious cookie size.
