As far as breakfasts go, I’m a pretty simple creature. I like simple things. And if I can make it ahead of time? Bonus points! This Pumpkin Spice French Toast Bake covers both bases with just a handful of ingredients needed and a few minutes of hands on time.
This French Toast Bake is basically a french toast that’s been turned into a casserole and had all the fun flavors of Fall tossed into it. Pumpkin and pumpkin spice and everything nice!…
Read MoreI’ve pretty much been in smoothie mode recently which is pretty strange since I wasn’t a big fan of them in years past. I always tended to rather eat my food as opposed to drink it. But, with it being 90+ degrees here still in Austin… I figured the best way to get my pumpkin in the start of this Fall would be in the form of a smoothie.
This Pumpkin Pie Smoothie is SO. Damn. Good. There’s just enough spice and pumpkin in there to really get the feel and taste of pumpkin pie. And for well under 300 calories for a full on breakfast? I’ll take it!…
Read MoreI LOVE banana splits. But, I’ll be the first to tell you that I haven’t had an actual one in yeeeears. In fact, I think the last time I had one was when I worked in an ice cream parlor. Yep! I worked in an ice cream shop when I was fresh out of college and before I got my real adult job as a graphic designer. It’s probably a good thing too. I got all my ice cream eating out of my system at a young age when I could afford the calories.
This banana split is a nod to the classic. But, it won’t leave you feeling guilty. Actually, this banana split is SO deliciously guilt-free that you can even indulge in it for breakfast. That’s what I did. I had this bad boy for breakfast and I couldn’t be more okay with it…
Read MoreOne of my favorite things about summer produce? Zucchini and summer squash is aplenty and HUGE. When I come across the giant squash at the store, it’s pretty hard, and damn near impossible for me to pass them up. That’s why you’ll see ALL the zucchini and squash recipes that you could ever want in the summer season.
As summer comes to a close, and the squash are dwindling, I decided to give another good zucchini inspired recipe. With some cooked chicken on hand, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. Buffalo Chicken Zucchini Boats!…
Read MoreIt’s a short, sweet, and simple one today!
This Black & Blueberry Smoothie is quick and so SO easy to make with just a handful of simple ingredients and a quick whirl around in the blender. This has been one of my go-to breakfasts for about two weeks now. And let me just say, that I’ve never been one to be that big into smoothies before. I’ve always preferred to eat my meals as opposed to drinking them.
But when it comes to this smoothie? I am totally fine with drinking it. In fact, it’s probably one of my all time favorite things for breakfast right now. It fills me up and gives me plenty of energy to get through the day…

All you busy parents out there… this one's for you! And your kids too, of course! I don’t know about you but as an animal lover, my little one loves her cartoons and PAW Patrol has always been at the top of her list of favorites. So, when I saw these PAW Patrol inspired snack cheeses at my local HEB I knew that I had to get them and do something fun with them for snack time!
When I was little, two of my favorite snacks were cheese sticks and pizza bites. So, I thought to myself… why not both? And you know what? Let’s make them crazy easy and simple too. With literally just a handful of ingredients and a quick bake to perfection. The best part? They have the playful look of a rawhide dog bone! PAW Patrol, here we come.
