These Mint Chocolate Energy Bites are simple, healthy, and reminiscent of the Thin Mints Girl Scout Cookies we all know and love. Theyâre the perfect bite to satisfy your sweet tooth or serve as an afternoon pick-me-up! I know Iâve professed my love for cookies recently, but can we take a minute to discuss how…

King Cake Cookies (Only 4 ingredients!)
These easy, 4-ingredient king cake cookies are soft, cinnamon-y, and perfectly festive for Mardi Gras. Laissez les bon temps rouler! This might mean Iâm a bit too simplistic, but I think cookies are my favorite dessert. I mean, yes, ice cream makes my heart sing. I always appreciate the effort and love that goes into…
Easy Cheesy Greek Quinoa Bake
You guys, I had high hopes for this recipe we made a few weeks ago. The recipe is from a cookbook for toddlers, so surely my toddler gobbled it up, right? Wrong. He ate a tiny bite of the quinoa alone, but he wasnât feeling the actual vegetables in it. Story of my life! We are…
Almond Butter, Oat, & Chocolate Chip Snack Bites + WIAW
I have to apologize to you again. (This seems to have become a habit for me.) All of the recipes Iâve come up with recently are for sweets/desserts. Weâve been cooking a lot of our old stand-by meals lately, and when I say âwe,â I really mean âMark.â Iâve mentioned before that my pregnancy sweet…
Mint-Chocolate Matcha Chia Pudding
As difficult as itâs been, Iâve been trying to lay off the sweets during my pregnancy. Says the woman who bought cinnamon rolls and 2 slices of cake at the grocery last weekend! Iâve always had a pretty big sweet tooth, but Iâve become pretty good about keeping healthier sweets on-hand (such as these or…
Virgin Mango Lime Margaritas
Even if I werenât pregnantâand even if I could consume all the frozen margaritas I desiredâIâd be lying if I acted like Cinco de Mayo (or any Mexican dinner night) wasnât about the glorious, flavorful food. This pregnant, food-obsessed woman canât wait to bite into a crunchy taco shell and slather homemade guacamole (with extra…
Herbed Goat Cheese, Mozzarella, & Tomato Grilled Cheese
Iâm generally a big fan of April. Flowers are in bloom, the weather is still cool and spring-like, itâs Markâs and my anniversary (#6 this year!), and itâs usually the kickoff of fun outdoor events that carry on into the summer. But this year, Iâm especially fond of April because Iâve learned itâs also National…
St. Patrick’s Day 2014 + Cheater’s Shepherd’s Pie
Hi friends! I hope everybody is wearing their green and sipping a frosty, festive-colored beer for me! đ Even though I have just a small bit of Irish ancestry, I love any excuse to dress up, eat delicious food, and party with good friends. Though today I was back at work, this past weekend was…
WIAW + Shredded Kale, Brussels Sprouts, Pomegranate, Pistachio, and Walnut Salad
Happy Wednesday, my dears! Today is monumental because Iâm actually posting a recipe for you guys. Itâs the first recipe of the yearâand also the first since mid-November. Iâm ashamed. đ My shame aside, do you remember that salad I talked about at Thanksgiving? Well, I discovered a few (bad) photos on my camera, and…
Easy But Elegant: Pear, Brie, and Arugula Panini
Does anybody else out there worship and rely on sandwiches the way I do? Sandwiches are much like salads and soups, in that you can be as creative as you wish, and itâs going to work out . (Sometimes magically.) Whether itâs an oeey-gooey grilled cheese (dipped in tomato soupâitâs required!), a classic BLT, chicken…
