Pumpkin Cheesecake for 1
It was a “dessert first” kind of night. It was a long and awesome day of teaching, capped off by team-taught Zumba class and a tubing class, and all I wanted when I got home was some sweatpants.. and pumpkin cheesecake. I’ve been scheming of this recipe for a couple of days, because I wanted…

Stuffed bell peppers
I got to see the sunrise this morning. While I’m not a morning person in the least –I usually wake up around 6:45 or 7, but don’t turn into a human until at least 8- it was surprising to discover that I actually liked waking up so early today. I’m not going to make…

Chili Lime Pumpkin Seeds
Last night was pumpkin carving at our house, fabulous company and quite possibly the most random and festive snacks. Grilled corn on the cob, from the farmer’s market and prepared by the Grillmaster himself hot apple cider (also from the farmer’s market, spiced up with cinnamon and nutmeg) and pie. Told you it was random…

Halloween is a great time to reminisce about the excitement of being dressed up in costume (and mad because mom made me wear a sweater with my sparkly Little Mermaid outfit because it was cold), swapping details with neighborhood friends on where the “good” houses are, and filling bags to the brim with candy. Around…

Easy and delicious gluten-free crepes
It’s been wayyyyy too long…. The return of crepes! I got a link back yesterday from a friend who made these, and I can’t believe I forgot about them for so long. I’m definitely a creature of habit when it comes to breakfast, and go through phases where I rotate between 3 or so things.…

Paleo Pancakes and Schweaty October Workout
Hi friends! How are you? Hope you’re having a fabulous morning <3 My pancakes this morning.. not so fabulous. Burnt on the outside and raw on the inside… I’m not quite sure where I went wrong, because they were cooked on medium-low and I actually measured and followed instructions [a rarity]. If you try these…

Nori Nachos
I could pretend that we did SO much today. But really: we didn’t. It’s funny because we weren’t lazy at all, but still didn’t manage to get a ton of stuff done. NBD, since I got to enjoy the day with the Pilot, instead of frantically running around like I usually do on Mondays 🙂…

Reader’s Request: Fave Quinoa Uses
Morning! It’s almost the weekend! Kind of stoked 🙂 The chipotle black bean soup was actually a success, even though I went a little cray cray with the chiles. [Recipe is in the Canyon Ranch Nourish cookbook. I added 2 chipotle chiles instead of 1/2 t, and also a whole head of garlic.. because if…
