When he tasted these, my boyfriend said, “Did you come up with this in your own head?”. Why yes, I did. He knows I pretty much improvise most of what I do (with a notepad, since having started the blog), but these were so good he had to ask. After my first bite, I said, [...]Continue reading →
Don’t worry, they’re nice. You might feel a little naughty sharing them with family and friends, but really, you’re doing them a favor. There are a lot of sweets to eat this time of year. Everyone’s in the mood to eat them, and lots of people are in the mood to bake them. Having a [...]Continue reading →
This soup took no time to assemble, and just a few minutes to heat up. And it was very delicious. The bagel croutons really take the cake though, and add a delicious sweetness! Sometimes you open up a can of pumpkin puree for one recipe, and you don’t use it all up. Especially with these [...]Continue reading →
This cake is perfect for the holidays. It really captures the flavor of egg nog. If you’ve got egg nog around, and hopefully the egg nog I made a few days ago (because it’s soooo creamy, yet so healthy), you can whip it together in the food processor in just a few minutes. It’s gluten-free, [...]Continue reading →
I was tempted to challenge myself to see how many different things I could make using egg nog. Including the actual egg nog, which started out my holiday series, I have now made 4 egg nog recipes. Yesterday I had eggnog cupcakes, recipes for single serving and a batch of 12. And I’ll all out [...]Continue reading →
Yesterday I shared the fabulous shockingly healthy egg nog. Today I will share with you what you can do if you have any left over, although that’s doubtful. You should probably make an extra batch, just for using in other egg nog flavored recipes. You might have tons of parties, and you’re a little worried [...]Continue reading →
Okay, I’ll admit it: part of why this egg nog is sooo healthy is that there is no rum in it. But I was never into egg nog for the rum, I liked the taste. If I’m choosing where to have less nutrient dense calories, I always pick dessert over alcohol. Traditional egg nog has [...]Continue reading →
Good morning! In Toronto today it’s going up to 12 degrees and raining during the day, but I might snow at night. How’s that for confusing weather? There is one thing that may help me get into the holiday spirit: I am writing my last test of 2011 today! So when I get home, I’ll [...]Continue reading →
Although it’s been a little while since I last posted a pumpkin recipe, I can’t say that I haven’t been using it at home. Pumpkin season may be over, but I still like having at least one big can of puree in the pantry, for when the desire to make something creamy and delicious should [...]Continue reading →
Who doesn’t love pesto? It’s a great appetizer on a baguette, a wonderful alternative to tomato sauce on a pizza, and a great sauce in itself. Why not take it to the next level and make a great tasting pesto with a very nutrient dense vegetable? I’m a little new to Kale. I recently fell [...]
