    Gourmet Mushroom Quesadillas

    September 30, 2020 / 0 Comments

    I added “Gourmet” to the title because these are not your everyday quesadillas. These are “make them when company comes over” mushroom quesadillas. Gruyere cheese and an assortment of in season mushrooms kick this dish up a few notches. Have you tried this recipe?? I’d love to hear your feedback. Please comment and rate!

    Hidden Surprise Pancakes

    September 26, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Hold up! This is seriously going to up your pancake game! Weekend breakfast has never been more fun. On the outside, they’re just regular fluffy pancakes but cut them open for a splash of color! These are a great start to the day for birthdays and holidays. The trick to these, as you will see below, is to make the baby, colorful pancakes first. That way the insides are guaranteed to be cooked and fluffy as well as the outside pancake. If you are averse to food coloring, try mixing in fruit such as mashed blueberries or pureed strawberries instead. Have you tried this recipe?? I’d love to hear your…

Of course, it’s become standard to add coloring to get the deep velvety red that we know and love. Have you tried this recipe?? I’d love to hear your feedback. Please comment and rate!

    Go ahead and cross granola off of your grocery list. This healthier version is so easy to make! Maple flavors paired with warm spices create a comforting but healthy granola. I love this as an evening snack with my tea but it’s also great on any of my smoothies. I created this granola out of a list of recommended iron rich foods. Women have a higher iron goal than men: we need 14.8mg a day while men only need 8.7mg. Alisa Vitti recommends eating iron and vitamin B rich foods to support blood loss and energy during the menstrual phase of our cycles which is why I’m grouping this recipe…
