  • Pesto Tofu Scramble

    Finally back with an actual recipe! I have been making this fantastic pesto tofu scramble a lot lately. It’s the kind of breakfast I am ALWAYS in the mood for! I was lucky enough to find a pre-packaged pesto that happened to be vegan (it wasn’t advertised that way but I read about seventeen labels…

  • 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.

  • 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…

  • Deconstructed Apple Turnover Breakfast

    Got a fantastic weekend breakfast treat for you. I woke up later than usual on Sunday and wanted to bake a fun weekend breakfast without spending too much time on it. I made this on a whim using a spare square of puff pastry I had in my fridge and an old Cooking Light throwback…

  • 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…

  • Raspberry Lemon Vanilla Smoothie

    I made a super simple tiny smoothie the other day to accompany some toast for breakfast, and loved it!  I thought you’d like it too. It tastes like summer in the dead of winter. Perfectly pink frozen fruit, that bright fresh flavor from lemon juice, all blended in a beautiful chilly little drink (that maybe…

  • 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…

  • Immunity Powerhouse Green Smoothie

    Guys, I’m sick.  Boo. It’s pretty mild, but I am feeling a little slow and sleepy, so the other day I decided to take a nice long lunch and go home and make myself a nutrition-packed smoothie (where I could drink it under a blanket, of course) to re-energize me for the afternoon. It was…
