Ahh, Saturday morning.

Saturday morning is easily my favorite time of the week.

Waking up sans alarm clock, laying in bed until you decide to get up, lazily making a morning cup of tea…Saturday mornings are perfect.

My favorite part? Breakfast.

Not only am I totally convinced that breakfast food as a whole is completely unparalleled in the culinary world, but being able to take my time, sit down, and enjoy the start to my day with my incredible boyfriend?

I’m forever thankful for Saturday mornings.Read More

Thai Peanut Burrito Bowls

I’m a huge fan of keeping meals as simple as possible during the week.

I don’t know about you, but by the time I get home from work on a Tuesday, my brain is pretty much fried beyond the point of talking, let alone putting together an impressive, elaborate meal.

For this reason, Mark and I get into meal ruts. Bad. We make the same roasted vegetable salad every week, at least once a week. We always have some sort of Mexican food, whether it be b urrito bowls or tacos. We always have popcorn. It’s hard to change it up when we have these tasty meals down to a system.Read More

So I love making lists.

While it might be attributed to my addiction to office supplies, I think the true reason behind it is because I love the feeling I get when I finally cross something off that list.

Almond Joy Chocolate Pudding

Being someone that follows a whole food, plant-based lifestyle, I’m used to people questioning, poking fun, and full-out gawking at my eating habits.

Take, for instance, my two week-long work orientation. We jet-setted to a land far away from Pittsburgh to live out of a suitcase for 14 straight days. While I definitely learned a lot, I sure did miss my bed, my boyfriend, and my food.

One thing that never got old, however, was sharing my food philosophy with others. No, I didn’t shove it down people’s throats, but when they asked why I was passing up the ground beef and big bowl of queso for lunch, I was happy to share my thoughts. Read More

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bites

When it’s summer, frozen desserts are where it’s at.

I don’t want to go heat up the oven, stir, sift, mix, and wait for a molten-hot dessert to be coming my way. I want something that will cool me down. Something that will freeze my brain. Something that will melt in my mouth. Something now.

Guys, these Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bites are that something.Read More
