Edit: I'm making this on New Year's Day this year so I thought I'd share it again... Happy New Year's everyone :) This is a recipe I shared last year. This will be perfect for Christmas morning or every other holiday celebrated with family too. I wish everyone a safe and healthy holiday season. I feel so grateful and blessed - I ...
Breakfast
Apple Cheddar Christmas Loaf with Thyme
Apple Cheddar Christmas Loaf with Thyme This is the perfect addition to everyone's holiday breakfast or brunch feast. This bread which kind of has a cake texture is decadent, delicious and so ridiculously simple. You can even make this the day before and then on Christmas morning warm it in a low oven just before serving. I truly hope everyone ...
Sausage Frittata
Sausage Frittata Here it is, New Years Eve. I often find myself nostalgic on this day, almost sad to see something go. With that said I must say I have a great feeling about 2016, I think it’s going to be a wonderful year. I have prepared a recipe inspired by New Years Day Brunch (I thought of breakfast but who was I kidding!?!). Serve this ...
Ham and Cheese Roll Ups
Ham and Cheese Roll Ups In case you've ever wondered who wakes the rooster in the morning who wakes the farmer and the world; it's my 2 year old. Only on Saturdays though oh and Sunday's. She has her little loving heart set on waking up when it's still dark and while Mike and I are still very much dreaming. So every Saturday morning I get her ...
Healthy Breakfast Muffins
Healthy Breakfast Muffins As of Thursday my maternity leave is officially over. I’m sad but I’m looking forward to getting back into the working world where I’ll see and interact with adults. With work though comes the need to pack a lunch and in this insane economy, a breakfast too. These muffins are moist, spicy and yummy and let’s not forget: ...
Lemon-Blueberry-Banana Muffins
Lemon-Blueberry-Banana Muffins I shared this recipe a few years ago and I've been craving these all day long! This is another breakfast muffin I baked for my mornings at work. These muffins are ooey, gooey and chewy thanks to all of the fruit and lemon juice. I should also point out that even though I used whole wheat flour, the muffins are ...
Pumpernickel Strata with Goat Cheese and Bacon
Pumpernickel Strata with Goat Cheese and Bacon Strata is a casserole usually served for brunch characterized by eggs, cheese and cream. Here I’ve omitted most of the fat and yet this dish is still so rich and decadent, you can’t even tell. This is another dish and recipe I shared a few years ago and it is perfect for a New Years Day brunch. ...

Makes 12 Cups 8 Large eggs ¼ Cup milk (I used 1 %) ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp pepper 5 Dashes hot sauce (optional) 2 Strips of cooked bacon, crumbled ¼ Cup old ...
(Healthy) Banana Muffins
(Healthy) Banana Muffins I am definitely on a breakfast muffin kick! These muffins are BANANA, I’d even like to suggest extra banana-y but clearly, it isn’t a word. I have compromised in this recipe and done half whole wheat flour and half white flour (eeek) and wow what an incredible difference; these are light enough that you can’t tell they’re ...
Spiced Zucchini Muffins
Spiced Zucchini Muffins This recipe is dedicated to everyone who has a friend begging to give away the ample zucchini from their garden this summer. I must admit that I’m not the biggest fan of zucchini but there’s no way I could turn down home-grown produce, really, is there anything better? Makes 12 muffins 2 Cups whole wheat flour 2 ...
Granola Clusters
Granola Clusters I’m not going to lie, this recipe was supposed to be granola bars but they fell apart. I was going to try another recipe but I tasted the clusters and they were amazing! This recipe has cut butter and sugar and has added protein by using light peanut butter in their place. My lunch box has always consisted of an apple, a banana, ...
Strawberry Pancakes
Strawberry Pancakes My son is almost two now (it goes by too fast) and he is in that adorable (sarcasm) phase where he won’t eat anything you give him unless it’s a goldfish cracker dipped in ketchup. I decided to make him homemade buttermilk Pancakes with strawberries, I mean who wouldn’t want that? Well, him. So I ate them and they were ...
