Vegan Peach Baked Oatmeal
[Heads up: this post is sponsored as part of my partnership with Blue Diamond Almond Breeze. Read on for a delicious and vegan baked oatmeal recipe!] I’m always on the lookout for breakfasts that can be made in advance. Since the mornings can be a little crazy around here, I love being able to quickly…

Sur La Table dinner at home
Nothing like a Tuesday night fancypants (yet easy!) dinner after a hot barre class. (Hot barre! Not to be confused with the Whole Foods meal, but equally delicious and a rare form of workout torture/triumph.) Ok, and wine too 🙂 Even though it was a little lonely preparing this meal by myself instead of with…

No-Bake Blueberry Jam Bars
I have this grand vision of the (very) distant future: I am an awesome grandma and I always have some type of fresh-baked cookies waiting for visitors in the cookie jar. For now, it’s this random Pyrex dish. Each week, there’s something entirely different for snacking: amazeballs, protein fudge, granola bars, cookies, muffins or whatever…

Berry Lemon Chia Jam
I started a new thing where if we’re out of something, I’ll try to make it from scratch. This doesn’t work for the obvious staples (like eggs. We go through 172 each week), but little things like almond butter and jam. Berry Lemon Chia Seed Jam One night, I was packing Livi’s lunch up for…

Protein pancakes without the protein powder
Hi guys! How’s your morning been? A little later post today. I spent a lot of the am getting ready (aka cramming) for my first practice barre class at the studio where I’ll be teaching. The good news is that we have freedom to design our routines, but we do a set order for each…

Spiced smashed potatoes
Potato, potahhhhhto…… I feel like I’ve had a few successes today: 1) I took a barre class, two days after the half marathon, as part of my training for work. (My first full practice class is Thursday! Wahoo!) I was on the fence if this was a success or failure, as I couldn’t complete about…

Homemade Acai Bowls
Along with the handful of bases where we’ve been stationed, there’s also a corresponding food that will bring back fond memories of that assignment. Despite the glorious Southern food that we were surrounded with, our Valdosta food was Indian cuisine: soaked up with fresh naan and enjoyed with our close friends. Our Tucson food was…

Grain-free chocolate chip muffins
The nanas are here! (Pure joy. My heart couldn’t even handle how happy Liv was to see madre and nana.) Yesterday morning, Liv and I met up with Whitney and her little guy at the library for storytime. The downtown library is HUGE, and the bonus is that they have free 2-hour garage parking. Parking…

Eggplant Fries with a Creamy Yogurt Dressing
Ohhh friends, do I have a snack recipe for you. But first, I have to tell you about a new restaurant Liv and I went to check out last night. We were at Sprout’s across the street, and I realized that Native Foods had finally opened. I had no idea what they served, but knew…

Banana split smoothie
Hi! Happy Wednesday to ya 🙂 How’s the day going so far? This week has already been a lot of fun. I took Livi to her yoga class and we planted some herbs in the garden. I might eat my words later, but I feel like you really have to work to kill plants here.…
