Banana Pancakes

Breakfast is my jam. Some people say it’s the most important meal of the day. For me, it’s my favorite meal of the day, and can be eaten any time of day. And given the space I hold in my heart for breakfast, pancakes are basically my love language. While I enjoy them in most…

Sweet Tooth Solutions

If I had a dollar for every time someone told me about their sweet tooth – well, you know. Hey, I’m all for treats in moderation, but it’s far too easy to get carried away and sabotage yourself when it comes to your goals. And while there’s something to be said for learning the art…

Honey Dijon Pork Tenderloin

I’ll be real with you: The first time I tried making this pork tenderloin recipe, it threw me for a loop. Not because the recipe itself is complicated, but because I have an apparent knack for making simple things more difficult. What can I say. It’s how I roll. I made a post on Instagram…

Turkey Butternut Squash Chili

When the weather starts cooling down outside, I love making myself a good bowl of chili. It’s a quintessential fall dish. There’s probably a thousand and one ways to make it – I don’t think we’d have cook-offs and contests if there weren’t. So, I guess that makes this recipe number one thousand and two–and…

Pumpkin Coffee Concoction

I’m not necessarily a die hard Pumpkin Spice Latte girl, but I certainly enjoy the flavors of fall, especially with my coffee. And lately, I’ve been knocking back this lighter pumpkin coffee concoction. All you need is pumpkin spice flavored coffee with half a cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and you’ve got a delicious,…

On Old Habits

Y’all know I like to keep things positive, but I also like to keep it real. And things are about to get really real. I recently made a post on Instagram (check out my account here or at the bottom of the blog!) with a series of pictures of things most would consider “junk food”….

Asian Chicken Meatballs

Meatballs are a great option for a quick, healthy meal. They’re easy to throw together, a great source of protein, and making one huge batch can turn into multiple meals. While they can be served in a variety of ways, I love making mine with an Asian twist. Here’s all you need: The original recipe…

Proats

Oatmeal is such a great breakfast option. On its own, it’s incredibly filling, a healthy source of carbs (*gasp*), and full of whole grains and fiber. I also enjoy that it comes in a variety of flavors, like these. What can I say? I like having options. And variety is the pumpkin spice of life….

Top Ten: Trader Joe’s

It’s no secret around here that I am a fan of Trader Joe’s. They have so many amazing products, some days, it’s hard not to walk out with one of everything. And every time I go in, I feel like I discover something new. And while I could give you an exhaustive list of all…

Low-Cal Latte

I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to make a post about coffee. But if you’ve paid attention to some of my photos, you’ll notice about 75% of my counter space is devoted to coffee. So clearly, coffee is of high value and great importance to me. And while I’ll take coffee in any…
