Nutella Chocolate Mousse

Now if you know me personally, you know that I typically eat pretty healthily whenever possible. Whole grains, lean meats, fruits and veggies. I eat salads every day for lunch at work. But I also subscribe to the philosophy “anything in moderation.” This would be one of those times to employ moderation. My recommendation – […]

Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Lactation Bars

My lactation granola bar recipe is one of the most popular on my blog, and for good reason. They’re delicious, nutritious, and provide nursing mamas with a boost. There are lots of ingredients here that nursing mamas need for energy and to help their body produce milk, especially oats, flax seed, brewer’s yeast, and coconut. […]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Lactation Energy Bites

I saw a recipe for Chocolate Energy Bites, and I thought they were perfect for me. Recently we welcomed our second child, Eleanor Jayne, into our family. Being a new parent brings such great joy!…and also such tiredness. 🙂 So when I saw this recipe, I wasn’t sure which I needed more – chocolate or energy. […]

Breakfast Cookies Recipe

I’m forever on the hunt for healthy things my toddler will eat. Whenever possible, I like to make things at home as opposed to buying them so I can control the quality of ingredients. The less additives, the better! Breakfast seems to be the most challenging meal for me be creative with. I’m a working […]

Chocolate Fudge with Avocado

  A chocolate dessert made with avocado…it seems weird, I know. But you don’t taste the avocado at all! I swear! It just gives the fudge a decadent, smooth, butteriness that is to die for. I actually feel a little naughty, like it is some sort of sneaky deception to put avocado in this silky, satisfying dessert. […]

Turkey Bacon Chili

This winter I have been obsessed with chili.  So much so, in fact, that I requested it as my birthday meal from Tim.  There are about as many ways to make chili as there are people out there who eat chili. I don’t think I’ve ever made it the same way twice.  This year, I’ve […]

Peanut Butter Banana Icebox Cake

I am notorious for trying out new recipes on guests.  I know they say not to do that, and it makes sense…what if it’s a total flop?  But I just can’t help myself.  So we were having some friends over for dinner a couple of weeks ago, and I was looking for a new idea […]
