  • Triple Coconut French Toast

    All things coconut have arrived!!! On French toast 🙂 I really wanted French toast recently, so I whipped some up and topped it with my fantastic Nikki’s Vanilla Cake Batter Coconut Butter. It got all melty and amazing and the idea for uber-coconutty triple coconut French toast struck me. Coconut milk. Coconut oil. Coconut butter.

  • Chorizo Quinoa Scramble

    So it’s starting to sink in that it’s September. That’s crazy. I don’t really believe it. Like I said in my little goals post, I’m stoked. Really, I am. But this summer flew by in a weird phase of my life. Part of me is itching to wear boots and hats and bake things with…

  • Maple Pecan Scones

    Here are the scones I made for my friends last weekend! I forgot to snap pics as I was frantically baking, cleaning my apartment, and getting myself ready for a day of wine tasting early on Saturday morning. I got a couple blurry shots while we were eating, so I made the best taking pictures…

  • Vanilla Chai Protein Chia Pudding

    Happy happy Friiiiiiiiday! Have you ever tried one of those bottled vanilla chai protein drinks? There are a few out there, but I think the Bolthouse Farms one is probably most widely circulated. They are sooo creamy and yummy, full of vanilla goodness with a subtle chai flavor. Well here it is in chia pudding…

  • Blueberry Scones

    I am keeping up with my little goal to use my cookbooks more! I have a highly sophisticated bookmarking system with post-it flags in all of my cookbooks so I can more quickly sort through the recipes that I HAVE to make sooner rather than later.  Really convenient for an early weekend morning when I…

  • Biscuits & Gravy Brunch

    Vegan biscuits and gravy, AH! Seriously, guys, I’m addicted! SO yummy! Plus, you can whip this up way faster than you’d think. Last weekend I had some friends over for a birthday brunch. It was a little hectic getting ready for brunch because the day before was Preston’s law school prom. (Yes, I got to…

  • Dessert for Breakfast | Cookie Butter Chia Pudding

      I have a decadent morning treat for you!  This is a fantastic compromise between really healthy long-lasting fuel for the day and a serious treat. It’s super simple, too.  Ever made chia pudding?  I haven’t posted a recipe because it’s just all over the place.  I had planned for a long time to post…

  • World’s Easiest Cinnamon Rolls

    I wasn’t planning to turn these into a post, as they were just a spur-of-the-moment Christmas morning treat.  But I snapped some pictures of them, and the pictures turned out pretty well and the cinnamon rolls are even better.  So I had to share. Preston left Christmas morning to go see his family, and I had…

  • Meyer Lemon Matcha Muffins

    Good morning, internet friends!  Today’s recipe is a scrumptious healthy muffin that I made to get in some nutrition, but still have a comforting winter breakfast.  Love them.

  • Blueberry Lemon Coffee Cake

    Another week, another loaf baked.  Fall just brings out the baker in me.  It will be an unofficial goal to post one baked good recipe a week for the rest of the fall/winter season.  No promises, no pressure.  But as long as this desire to bake keeps up, I’m going to keep frequently posting treats.
