Blueberry Banana PB Smoothie

In grad school I worked at a smoothie shop for supplemental income, so I’d say that I’ve got pretty high standards when it comes to smoothies! This is my favorite one I’ve made (it’s filling, the consistency I like, and delicious) and is full of antioxidants from the blueberries (and extra nutrients from the hidden…

Farro Breakfast Bowl

I love an avocado egg combo, and also have been trying to incorporate more farro into my cooking, so I was excited to try out this recipe from Cooking Light! It takes a little longer than other breakfast recipes I’ve made given the time it takes to cook the farro, so I recommend either cooking…

Roasted Sweet Potato with Scrambled Eggs

I love any avocado egg combination, but when I saw this dish on feedfeed instagram with the addition of roasted sweet potato, and it completely elevated the avocado/egg game. Really could eat this dish for any meal of the day, I love how flavorful and colorful it is. Here’s how to make the roasted sweet…

Creamy Whipped Banana Oatmeal

With a combo of peanut butter, banana, and oatmeal, whats not to love? I’m normally someone who chooses to microwave my oats for oatmeal (because it’s much faster) but given that I had extra almond milk from making Homemade Almond Milk (and flour), I thought I’d give this recipe from Erin Lives Whole a try. I’m…

Oatmeal Waffles

Based on ErinLivesWhole recipe for Oatmeal Blender Pancakes, thank you for the inspiration Erin! I started out making pancakes but it started getting a little messy (I’m not good with figuring out the ideal time to flip pancakes, so I used my Dash Mini Waffle Maker Machine instead). I got this machine on a deal for…

Overnight Buckwheat Chia Oatmeal

I bought a huge bag of buckwheat to make my Homemade Seeded Buckwheat Bread, but since I do not have a food processor or blender in my new place (which I need to make the bread), I was not able to use my buckwheat for this recipe. I was looking for another buckwheat recipe that…

Whole Wheat Popovers

Stumbled upon this recipe on @zoebakes instagram, and have been wanting to try it forever! Finally decided to make it today and it was a huge hit in my household. I made a few edits to her recipe based on ingredients I had at home. For example, I didn’t have whole milk, so I used…

Berries and Cream Fluffy Pancakes

Has anyone else been wanting to try the Japanese style fluffy pancakes all over instagram? I tried my first recipe for them today, and even though they weren’t as fluffy as most that I’ve seen, they still were delicious. My version might not have been as fluffy as the fluffy Japanese pancake/souffle pancakes online because I…

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

This recipe from Rachel Mansfield contains my favorite combination of ingredients: bananas, chocolate and nut butter. If you are allergic to nuts, you can use a nut-free butter to substitute for nut butter. Even though this recipe can be paleo-friendly, nothing about the taste of this recipe screams healthy dessert! In fact, this is definitely…

Smoked Salmon Socca

This smoked salmon socca (chickpea flatbread) pizza from The Cutting Veg is so delicious! It tastes like a cream cheese and lox inspired breakfast pizza, and the combination of  whole milk yogurt and salmon used in this recipe makes it so filling (and nutritious!) Sharing her recipe (with my modifications) below. Ingredients Socca: 1 cup…
