My hubby has been asking for some of my banana chip muffins for breakfast lately. So, I dug out some of the ripe bananas that I have stashed (or should I say stockpiled) in the freezer with full intentions of making some muffins. When I got started, though, I realized that I wasn’t really in [...]

Whole Wheat Pancake Mix (Ten in 10 – Week 9)
As promised, for today’s Ten in 10 update post, I will be announcing the winner of the FlaxMatters.com giveaway. But first, I thought I’d share another recipe that uses the milled golden flax that the winner will be receiving!
Saturday’s are a great day for a nice homemade breakfast. Most mornings I eat yogurt and fruit [...]
Healthy Honey Beer Bread
My husband and I really aren’t beer drinkers. It’s not that we haven’t tried, because we have. We just prefer wine (and I haven’t met a mojito I didn’t like). The thing is, we go through stages where we pick up a six-pack from a local brewery thinking that maybe we will discover [...]
Healthy (Vegan) Chai Spiced Pumpkin Muffins
You may think that pumpkin is only for the fall, but I could eat pumpkin all year long. I made lots of my own pumpkin puree with the fresh pumpkins from our CSA this fall, and stocked up on a few extra cans, too… Just in case!
I’ve been on a bit of a quest to [...]
Cinnamon Stuffed Scones
I have been craving scones for a while now. Honestly, I’m not sure why I didn’t make them sooner.
Yesterday, I got up early with great intentions of making doughnuts for Fasnacht Day. The more I thought about deep frying doughnuts and the inevitable mess that would result, the less inspired I felt. So, I pulled [...]
Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas
This appears to be one of very few years that a groundhog has accurately predicted 6 more weeks of winter. At least, he was right about the first few weeks! We’ve had more snow in the past week and a half than we usually do in an entire winter.
While I may lose readers (and possibly [...]
Penne with Rapini and Sausage
I’m always anxious to get back in my kitchen after traveling. I enjoy being in new places and trying new food, but after a while, I get sick of eating out and just want to make something for myself.
That’s how I started to feel this weekend. Not only did I have the urge to cook, [...]
Oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches
As soon as I picked up a copy of the King Arthur Flour Whole Grain Baking Cookbook, I knew I had to try the Chewy Oatmeal Decorating Cookies recipe. I love to make rolled cutout cookies, but had never tried a recipe with oatmeal. So, with Valentine’s Day coming up, I decided to make some [...]
Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread
I’m a control freak. Let me just put that out there…
No, this isn’t going to be a post about the many reasons that I should probably see a shrink and the fact that I have some serious OCD tendencies… We can talk about that later.
This post is all about making homemade bread, which stems directly [...]
Apple Cheddar Quesadillas
As I mentioned in my #10in10 update post yesterday, last week ended up being pretty busy for me. I’ve mentioned before that I’m not a real big fan of cold food, especially in winter. So, for me, the usual lunch salads and sandwiches aren’t usually too appealing. Instead, when I’m busy, one of my go-to [...]
