These Morning Glory Muffins are made with whole wheat flour, they’re dairy-free, and made with just 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Surprise your significant other this Valentine’s Day weekend and bake these Morning Glory Muffins....

Mushroom Shallot Frittata I love making frittatas for breakfast, brunch or lunch.

I’m not sure how it is in your house, but an open jar of Nutella in my pantry is bad news. No matter how much self control I think I have, I inevitably find myself with a spoon in hand standing over an empty jar, wondering how I got to this point in life....

I’ve gotten so accustomed to my routine that I actually look forward to coming back home so I can catch up on my shows and enjoy oatmeal and coffee on my couch. It’s the simple things in life that bring the utmost joy. During the winter I love a bowl of Hot Oatmeal, but during the summer it’s all about creamy Overnight Oats in a Jar. Peaches and blueberries are a classic combo that I don’t combine often enough, so I decided to throw them both in for breakfast and made Peach Blueberry Chia Overnight Oats....

Each month (or so), I give you a glimpse into what I’m working on, habits I’m cultivating, things bringing me joy, books/TV shows/podcasts I’m enjoying, and more. Think of it as stream-of-consciousness blabbering meets a semi-curated list of recommendations meets life update. Mostly because life has been a whirlwind! Not in a bad way. Just, very very busy! I love writing these posts because they are more intimate (and if I’m being perfectly honest, I get to ramble without feeling the pressure to share “useful” information that an algorithm called Google may or may not surface), though they do take quite a bit of time to put together....

I made these Shredded Tandoori Chicken Tacos three times in a week. Yes, three times. My poor hubby was like, “chicken again?”, and I retaliated back saying, “I need to master this before I share it, you don’t want my followers to have recipe failures, do you?” That got him thinking, and no we wouldn’t want that. 🙂 What my husband said about me in this Fish Masala post is 100% true....

Anyway, my oldest, who’s a big bad 6th grader now, loves breakfasts. Pancakes are his ultimate favorite thing in the whole entire world. If I announce that it’s breakfast for dinner, he seriously does a happy dance.

I shared this recipe a few years ago, and we all loved them, but the only issue was I made them in a mini muffin tin, and they stuck to the pan....

Asian-inspired recipes work great in the slow cooker. It results in tender meat but also gives time for the meat to soak up the flavorful sauces. Make this slow cooker cashew chicken, my Mongolian beef, or this Kung Pao chicken. The flavors just explode because of the long slow simmer. General Tso’s Chicken We love Asian-inspired meals at our house, and this slow-cooker version of General Tso’s chicken is a must!...
