Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
Crunchy, aromatic with vanilla and coconut, nutty, and slightly sweet, this Healthy Granola Recipe is easy to make and sure to become a favorite in your house. Store-bought granola will soon become a thing of the past!
What was your cereal of choice as a kid? I usually gravitated towards less sweet things, like Cheerios and Grape Nuts. But then there was the random favorite, Honey Smacks (you know, the red box with the cute frog on it!), which was basically pure sugar, lol!…
Thank you PayPal for sponsoring this post. Visit PayPal to give the gift of money this holiday season. Coconut Butterscotch Granola Cookies are the perfect cookie to ship to loved ones for the holidays; they ship well, feature nutritious ingredients like coconut, granola, and hemp seed hearts, and are packed with coconut-butterscotch flavor. Life can be so unexpected sometimes. Four Christmases ago, my entire family was in Buffalo and we spent every Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year together; it was what we were used to. We never anticipated it not being the norm, so we almost took it for granted....
Sno Ball Brownies {aka Chocolate Brownies Topped with Marshmallow and Toasted Coconut} feature a fudgy brownie base, fluffy marshmallow layer, and toasted coconut topping. Anyone else remember eating those little cream-filled chocolate cakes covered in marshmallow and pink coconut as a kid? Those were the sort of things that my sister and I considered a complete treat when we’d go to our friends’ houses and have them…because my mom never kept them around (and now I’m glad she didn’t, lol!)....
Paleo Hello Dollies Cookie Bars are a healthier take on a classic favorite cookie bar without sacrificing flavor! For most of us, holiday time means baking, and we usually have a few specific cookie recipes that get made several times each season. Surprisingly, I don’t do a ton of holiday baking, but my mom’s favorites to make on rotation (when she has the time for holiday baking!) are frosted and decorated Christmas Cutouts, Butterballs (also called Russian Tea Cakes, Mexican Wedding Cakes, and Snowball Cookies), and Schnecken (which are similar to Rugelach, but are made with sour cream instead of cream cheese). And then every […]...
Strawberry and Coconut Cream Overnight Oatmeal Parfaits are perfect for grabbing on-the-go for breakfast or dessert. People who know me know are always shocked to hear that I went through a hoarding phase as a kid. It’s true though; I used to have what I called “collections” of basically random junk, including everything from rocks, to seashells, to buttons, to scruffy Barbies that were past their prime. I rarely wanted to get rid of anything, no matter how ugly or nonfunctional it was....
A dense, moist, and sticky sweet Gluten-Free Coconut Almond Flour Cake, inspired by the Middle Eastern Cake Harissa. I hope you had a great weekend! If it snowed where you live, I hope you stayed safe and warm and had the chance to enjoy the snow…or at least bake something delicious! Mike and I are in DC and we’ve been hunkered down since Friday enjoying the snow; this weekend we had our second snowfall, which was actually a doozy: winter storm Jonas! Being from Buffalo, I am in my element, and although we were starting to go a little stir-crazy by Sunday afternoon, we actually […]...
Banana bread-lovers, this Piña Colada Banana Bread is a must-try if you enjoy the tropical flavors of pineapple and coconut! I’m weird in that I don’t like bananas much. I buy them for two reasons: 1) they’re one of my hubby’s favorite fruits (not surprising, since we have pretty much opposite tastes in food), and 2) to let them ripen to near-rotting (yup, I love them super sweet) and either freeze them to use in smoothies or make banana bread. See? I’m weird....
Have you started to feel spring in the air yet? It’s literally just a week away, so if you’ve had an exceptionally cold/snowy winter, hang in there because the end is in sight....
We all know not to judge a book by its cover. I think that same adage should wholeheartedly be applied to food....
Some things drive you completely wild with desire as they cook. Roast chicken. Apple pie. Any recipe that starts out with sautéed onion and garlic. Chocolate chip cookies. And I can say with confidence that this recipe should be added to the list....
