Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins (Grain-Free)
Naturally sweetened and grain-free, these tasty muffins are easy to whip up and perfect for grab-and-go breakfasts and snacks. (Dessert-worthy too!) It all began with this recipe for Pumpkin Peanut Butter Skillet Cookie. Until that point, I had frequently used peanut and almonds butter in savory soups, smoothies, sauces, and more (love these sesame peanut…
Vermont Breakfast Bread
As I was packing my bag for a weekend work trip last month, I scanned the shelves for a new book or magazine to pass the time on the plane. My destination was Vermont. The purpose was a farm tour. Stonyfield, a company perhaps best known for making yogurt, had extended the invitation. Some time…
Single Serve โBakedโ Oatmeal Cup
Easy advance prep and the protein of a whole egg make this portable, customizable meal a winner. There’s something so satisfying about these lightly sweet, hearty muffins. Without a doubt, this meal-in-a-cup has become my go-to travel fare, and I keep a stash of these handy cups in my pantry for all the times…
Green Goddess Dressing… and a trip to the Green Mountain State
For much of my life, summers have been all about New England. As a girl, I spent many memorable years going to camp near Camden, Maine, and camp was followed by family vacation on Squam Lake in New Hampshire. My sons veered only slightly off my path, attending a boys camp along the coast of…
Paleo Zucchini Bread
A short list of basic ingredients yields a tender, wholesome loaf of the classic quick bread that is naturally gluten- and dairy-free. I don’t advocate or personally subscribe to a Paleolithic diet, yet many of the recipes I make do qualify as Paleo. As you may know, the idea behind a Paleo diet is to…
Amish Baked Oatmeal
This wholesome family favorite can be prepared in advance and tastes a lot like a cinnamon oatmeal cookie. I typically take a minimalist approach, but the recipe is easy to customize through the addition of raisins, nuts, etc. Twenty years ago, when baked oatmeal was hardly a blip on anyoneโs breakfast radar, a friend gave…
Coconut Quinoa Breakfast Cookies
Perhaps you’ve never tried them, but quinoa flakes are widely available and offer a wholesome alternative to flour in these lightly sweet, satisfying cookies. Cookies for breakfast anyone? When they’re loaded with wholesome ingredients, cookies for breakfast are a treat we can actually feel good about. Perfect to grab-and-go when time is running short too!…
Cheesy Cauliflower “Flatbread”
In the past few years, cauliflower has been reinvented in so many ways. Thanks to its low carb count and subtle flavor, this healthy cruciferous vegetable has been successfully morphed into healthy-yet-creamy mashed “potatoes” and surprisingly delicious pizza crust. When my friend Sonali asked me to review her cookbook, Natural Pregnancy Cookbook, one of the first things…
Coconut-Banana Bread Breakfast Cakes
Gone are the days when flour as we know it meant all-purpose flour. From almonds to garbanzo beans, rice, and oats, flour is made of almost anything these days. I recently made pancakes with banana flour (yes, really…and they were good!) and sampled chestnut flour crackers (we liked the pancakes better 😀). When used the…
Loaded Baked Potato Frittata
Fashioned after a favorite side dish, this frittata is deliciously satisfying unadorned, although the bell pepper “shamrocks” add a whimsical nod to St. Patrick’s Day. ☘️ Kids are sometimes faulted for playing with their food. Even as an adult, I canโt always resist the temptation. I havenโt conducted any scientific studies, but Iโm pretty…
4-Ingredient Low-Carb Cloud Bread
Use these unconventional but tasty rolls for hamburgers, breakfast sandwiches, and the classic ham and cheese. Lightly toasting the rolls and topping with peanut butter and jam is a very good option, too. Sometimes, I post photos of in-the-works recipes on Instagram or Facebook. If I want to do some trouble-shooting or tweaking, I…
Greek Chicken Meatballs
Nutrient-rich and flavorful, these versatile baked meatballs work well with ground turkey and freeze well too. People often ask me when Iโm going to write a cookbook. Although I have plenty of recipes, I havenโt quite figured out how to pull off a book. My friend, Sonali, has written three cookbooks and has another on…
