Though many people don’t realize it, making granola takes no time at all, and it can be done with ingredients you probably already have in your pantry. Making granola at home is a great way to control the amount of sugar, fats, carbs, etc. that goes into your snack. Sadly, most store bought granolas are […]

Make Your Own Monthly Calendar – DIY Things you will need clipboard (I got this one for $1 at Walmart) a printer (or just somewhere you can print – library, school, office, etc.) 12 sheets of paper (or card stock) That’s it! Soo easy right? Personally, as much as I love to utilize everything my iPhone has […]

Honestly, oatmeal gets such a bad rep. Most people I talk to are convinced that it is boring, bland, and tastes like dirt. Even though it kills me when people have a bad opinion on it, I was definitely guilty of thinking that at one point. Before I started eating oatmeal frequently two years ago, I […]

I looooooove bliss balls. I’m such a fan of anything cute, little, and snacky. I know most people think snacking is bad, but I totally disagree. When you’re snacking on ridiculously tasty caramel balls packed with nutrients, what could be the problem with that? I also really enjoy any recipe that I can pop in […]

I feel like brussels sprouts get a really bad rep. I remember when I was younger, I used to associate them with the worst food possible. When I got older however, I decided to give them another try. I’m honestly so thankful I did, because they are SO good. Currently, they are my most favorite vegetable. I […]

These fries are my go-to almost every day. Sweet potatoes are definitely one of my favorite foods ever. Recently I read that if you eat an abundance of sweet potatoes and carrots (which I do), your skin can turn an orange tint. Isn’t that scary? I’m totally convinced that’s going to happen to me. Nevertheless, […]

You know when you make something very carelessly because you have items you want to get rid of and expect the product to be very blah? That’s exactly what I did here. I saw that I had a lot of apples in my fridge and wanted to use them up, so I decided to make an […]

These pancakes are pure bliss. They remind me of lazy, carefree mornings. Doesn’t that sound nice? Honestly though, these are super tasty. They’re soft, moist, fluffy, and packed full of nutrients. These pancakes are a sure fire crowd pleaser. They take very minimal time to make, and have a very basic flavor that everyone will […]

These peanut butter cups are the ULTIMATE dessert. They are rich, creamy, decadent, fudgey, and all around delicious. Chocolate, peanut butter, sweetness, what more could you ever ask for? Even though I could eat Reese’s for days on end, with these I am satisfied after one. They completely full-fill any dessert craving you may have, […]

Strawberry shortcake is definitely my favorite dessert aside from red velvet cake. There’s just something about strawberry flavor that I’ve always been so into. I have so many fond memories of getting strawberry icecream, and my mother looking down on me because it wasn’t chocolate. I know chocolate is a flavor that every girl is […]

This milkshake right here is currently my FAVORITE thing ever. The other day when I was in Philly, I stopped at a frozen yogurt shop to get a smoothie. I have to admit, I almost got a strawberry banana smoothie, but at the last second on a whim, I asked for pina colada. I honestly […]

I truly love mint everything. The color, the taste, it’s all so beautiful and refreshing. It is definitely on the list of my favorite things ever. Even though chocolate is incredible in its own glory, I think adding mint to it gives it a nice change of pace. If you love french toast, and you’re a […]

Personally, peanut butter is my favorite thing in the universe. I’m truly a nutbutter addict. I always have atleast 10 different kinds of peanut butter in my pantry at all times. Then when we run out of one flavor, my mom and I run to the store to restock. It’s just heaven. This pie, is […]

Who doesn’t love a good protein bar? They’re great to bring on the go, as well as tasty, quick, and filling. When I realized that I finished 3 boxes of Quest Bars in an embarrassingly short amount of time, I figured I should make some of my own protein bars to fill the void. Though […]

My favorite dessert ever definitely has to be red velvet. Cupcakes, cake, cheesecake, ice cream, frozen yogurt, you name it. Unfortunately, when you’re very lactose intolerant, red velvet is both a blessing, and a curse. Not letting my love for red velvet die, but also not wanting to feel ill, I made a red velvet pancake […]

Hi everyone! I made this banana bread this morning and it turned out awesome. I honestly wanted to eat the whole loaf in one sitting but that’s probably frowned upon. It is, however, good enough for you that you could eat the whole thing and not even feel guilty! Ingredients: 1 cup of whole wheat pastry flour […]
