Sourdough Discard Banana Bread

Banana Bread

Banana bread is a staple year round, yes? But especially in the fall! Slowly but surely I’ve modified our family’s original banana bread recipe to be slightly healthier. These days it has less sugar and more protein … all without sacrificing that sweet and smooth banana bread taste! Max especially is a fan. When he […]

25 Topping Ideas For Your Next Waffle Bar

We put together a little celebration for Charlie’s 2nd birthday this spring. A bee theme since we often call him “Charlie Bee”. Hobby Lobby had the cutest bee things which made it quite easy. Nothing sounded easier than breakfast for dinner so with waffles as the main dish Jem and I took the idea a […]

Peanut Butter & Jelly Arbonne Protein Shake

Blackberry Cobbler

We rolled in from Glacier on Saturday (can’t wait to share about our trip!) and immediately had to harvest all the things. Garden goodies, flowers, and gobs of blackberries. We ate a cup or two while picking – aren’t hot summer berries fresh off the bush just the best? – and then put four cups […]

Salmon Cheese Ball

Dominic has been following a keto diet since the beginning of the year. He’s down almost 30 pounds and I’m so proud of his commitment to healthy choices. I need to support him in finding and making more keto-friendly recipes and have intentions to do much better … starting with this salmon cheese ball! Isn’t […]

Celery + Apple Green Smoothie

I kicked off the year by going dairy free. At least for a little while.  It’s going OK. I honestly feel great. I’ve known for awhile that my body would be much happier sans dairy, but still, it’s never easy giving up something you love. I mean, I did have a dream about cheese the […]
