Peanut butter and jelly crumble
Hi friends! Happy Monday! Anything exciting going on this week? Anyone recovering from a weekend race? The Pilot ran 18 miles yesterday. 18!! That’s 5 more than I will ever run, and I can say that with full confidence. Even though I have to admit I had a little bit of running jealousy, I’m still…

Pumpkin Cranberry Energy Bars
Best cure for a case of the Moan-days? A trip to the park to feed the ducks 🙂 Even better with pumpkin cranberry energy bars for a snack (recipe below!). I headed to the gym early this morning to get in a water treadmill run for the first time. Per an awesome suggestion, I wrapped…

Vitamin C smoothie
Hi friends! I’m off to Boston this morning for a fun Reebok event. This post was supposed to go up much earlier, but as I was about to upload, we had a bit of a… situation. One of the engines in the plane malfunctioned and we made an emergency landing in Dallas. It was the…

Black forest Paleo brownies
There’s this dessert I’ll often make when we have a squadron function. It’s super easy, looks pretty, and tastes amazing. We’re in a training squadron now and things are different than an operations squadron (and we’re due to get our assignment any day ….and they’re probably getting rid of the A-10 and things are a…

The Best Pasta Salad You Will Ever Have in Your Entire Life
It’s a bold statement, but this truly is the best pasta salad ever. We went to our little cousin’s birthday party last weekend, and while it was a blast to hang out with the fam, swim with Livi and hear her sing “Happy Birthday,” the star of my heart was a pasta salad. Not just any…

Healthy and hearty chili
Ok, not really… it’s still shorts and tank weather. But it’s always a good day for a huge bowl of chili and chips. Yesterday afternoon, Livi and I didn’t have anything going on, and I figured the weather was too nice to stay inside. We called Kyle and Meg to see what they were up…

Apple Pie Smoothie
Even though it’s close to 100 degrees, I can still feel a hint of fall in the air. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking, but I’m gonna roll with it 😉 That’s where this apple pie smoothie comes in–it’s a great way to enjoy fall flavors even when the weather hasn’t gotten on board with what…

Eggplant Pizzas
Hi friends! Happy Monday to ya. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. After Saturday’s long run, I spent the day at work, crashed out embarrassingly early, and we spent all of Sunday just hanging out. Picking apples and pears was a blast, we grilled for dinner, ate some of the fudge from the apple orchard…

Sweet potato chicken salad
For having a husband who flies planes for a living, I don’t really love flying. I see it as a necessary evil, and while I don’t have full-blown panic attacks or anything like that, it’s not my favorite thing. With every sound I’m convinced that something will happen, and each flight usually involves at least…

Polenta Pesto Lasagna
I’m not sure what happened to me this week, but I’ve been extra inspired to try out new recipes. Sometimes I don’t post any recipes because I’ve been living off salad beasts and egg burritos, other times, I have so much I want to cook and share! This is one of those times, so I’m…
