I’ve had this awesome Oat Bran that I found at Trader Joe’s and have been dying to use it. This is a little twist off my regular muffins, but this time I had some low fat buttermilk in the refrigerator that needed to be used. I substituted it for the milk that the recipe called …
The Best Cobbler…Blackberry Style
I’ve tried so many different cobbler recipes…some healthy and some unhealthy. They never turn out the way I want them to. They are either too soggy, to dry, or just tasteless. I had not found one that was “blog-worthy”, until now! Blackberries were on sale at the local market, so I decided to bust out …

Soup for dinner. It’s that time of year. There’s just something cozy about a warm bowl of soup. This is my go to recipe for tortilla soup and its very versatile…you can really put almost anything in it and it will taste amazing. Everything could even be dumped into a crockpot in the morning and …
Pumpkin Scones…It’s finally fall!
Something about the weather changing makes me totally crave pumpkin. I also love baking with pumpkin. It’s naturally sweet and moist and pumpkin treats go so well with coffee. So, here’s one of many pumpkin recipes you’ll be seeing from me here in the next few months. I adapted this recipe from the Recipe Girl …
Weekend Waffles
Weekend waffles are kind of a thing at our house…and I’m totally ok with that. Our kids love them and we all love having a family breakfast together on the weekends.

Need a perfect sidekick for your juicy steak or pork tenderloin? These crispy potatoes are perfect! They get crispy on the bottom and are nice and soft in the center. They were a huge hit at our house, even with the kiddos. Oh, and they were great the next day, also! They are super …
Paleo Shepherd’s Pie
I’m constantly searching for good Paleo recipes that the whole family will love. I found this idea of a Paleo Shepherd’s Pie on pinterest a couple months ago. The original recipe can be found here, although I changed it up a bit. I used a beef roast, but this would be great with ground beef …
Paleo Banana Bread Waffles
I love breakfast. I love coffee. And I especially love waffles for breakfast…with my coffee. I created this recipe one morning because I was tired of boring, healthy breakfasts. I was craving pancakes, waffles, or anything that resembled a “bread-like” consistency! You see, I’ve been eating mostly Paleo and doing the 21 day fix workouts …
Breakfast Cookies
This is a pretty busy week around here and it’s been difficult to eat breakfast before running out the door. My sweet 2 yr old is taking swimming lessons M-F and it’s a pretty good drive to get to the pool. I came across this recipe on IG and thought these would be perfect for this …
