Nothing beats the smell of homemade bread baking in the oven. Am I right? I rarely make homemade bread, but since trying to eat healthier and running across a recipe for whole wheat bread in the crockpot (which I thought sounded intriguing), I decided to give it a try. The bread tasted good, but was…
I’ve been mentioning lately that my family is on the road to clean eating. Thanks to the internet and some amazing bloggers like Andrea from Howe We Live, my eyes have been opened to the dangers of eating highly processed foods with artificial ingredients and the benefits of those that are all natural. After lots…
source: RachaelRayShow.com I’ve been getting Rachael Ray EveryDay magazine for quite few years now and I’m pretty sure I will never cancel my subscription. I don’t have time to watch her show, but I can flip through a magazine and tear out a recipe that looks good in 5 minutes flat. She’s taught me how to…
It’s no secret that I am about as white as they come. I was raised on Midwestern food – meat and potatoes, and the only Mexican food my mom ever cooked/cooks is definitely “white” (sorry mom, but it’s true). As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned how to make enchiladas, rice, beans, tacos, fajitas, empanadas and…
Um, you guys. If there is one new recipe you try this weekend, make it this one. This honey sesame chicken in the crockpot is SO good and SO easy. (source) Holy. cow. I decided to make it because I needed a quick, easy meal that could cook while we were out of the house.…
{ source: joannagoddard.blogspot.com } When I’m bored with the usual dinners and thumbing through my organized recipes just isn’t cutting it, I turn to my Pinterest food board to test out something new. The internet really knows what their talking about, because I feel like I rarely try a recipe that I don’t at least like…
If you’ve read my blog, you know the frustrations I’ve dealt with when it comes to getting my 3 1/2 year old to eat. And if you’re a mom who’s ever had a 3 1/2 year old, I’m willing to bet you’ve dealt with the same issue.
You guys, I am over the moon about the fact that fall is here. Like, weirdly excited.
I think it’s because now that we are in Colorado instead of California, I get to experience a true fall season. The temperature has already dipped, the nights are chilly and the leaves are starting to turn a golden yellow.
I go to bed dreaming of pumpkin patches and apple picking and often smell the faint hint of banana bread in my nostrils – see what I mean? Weird.
What I’m about to share with you will change your life. Ok, that may be a bit dramatic. But my husband was putty in my hands after I made these for him, and that deserves a raving review in my book.
The idea for this recipe all began when I found and reviewed a pin for eggless cookie dough that was meant to be eaten raw. After testing it out, I thought it was amazing but it wasn’t working for me in its original form. See, I felt kind of disgusting sitting on the couch with a big bowl of cookie dough and a spoon… I wanted a way to make it a little more portion-control friendly, so I rolled it into balls and put it in the freezer (because the balls were really sticky). This was good, but by the time I finished eating the frozen dough ball, my fingers were covered with a sticky mess. How can I hide my gluttony from my 3-year-old when the evidence is all over my hands??
