Comforting Cream of Millet Cereal

As one of our oldest foods, millet is believed to be the very first domesticated grain. In Switzerland there is evidence that millet was grown during the Stone Age & consumed since the Iron Age in Northern Europe. We haven’t been eating this grain for thousands of years for nothing! It’s a healthy addition to…

Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla Pancakes with Coconut Frothed Summer Berries

This breakfast is a healthy start to any day & it whips up in 30 short minutes! I love no-fuss breakfasts in the morning (especially during a busy week); this is why I absolutely LOVE making my simple baked pancakes. It only takes 10 short minutes to whip up the batter (you can even make…

I’m not one to toot my own…

Avocado and Spinach Scramble

Today we’re preparing for Sandy’s arrival. No, not a dear friend, a Frankenstorm just in time for Halloween.

Pumpkin Quinoa Muffins to Warm Your Heart (V, GF)

I woke up to a cool, rainy morning here in the North East. The beautiful fall foliage is mostly on the ground, so it looks more like a dreary November morning. Normally it’s perfect sleeping weather, but It also happened to be one of the few mornings Joey & I have together. I wanted to…

Banana Nut Butter Quinoa Bread (V, GF)

Simplicity is my best friend. This banana bread is as simple as it gets. Because it’s made from Quinoa (say it together, keen-wah), this bread is full of high-quality protein. Not to mention, it’s as delicious as you can get. Oh, did I mention it’s also vegan, gluten-free, and soy-free?
