Make breakfast a little sweeter by sprinkling brown sugar on top of grapefruit halves and broiling until you have a bubbling and warm bowl of citrus! Sometimes, the simplest foods are the best foods. I’ve been meaning to broil grapefruit for awhile, but I very rarely buy them so it just hasn’t happened. I’ve done…
Strawberry Vanilla Almond Breakfast Quinoa
For a protein-packed breakfast that’s full of flavor, try this recipe for breakfast quinoa that combines fresh strawberries, warming vanilla, and crunchy almonds. One of the terms I use to describe myself is “food enthusiast,” and that’s because I love how food appeals to all the senses. Whether I’m cooking, eating, or just drooling over…
Cheesy Bacon & Ham Quiche
For a flavorful and savory breakfast dish, try this cheesy bacon and ham quiche! By combining ingredients like cheddar, parmesan, bacon, and ham chunks into a pre-made pie crust, you’ve got an easy breakfast that is sure to impress. As of yesterday, I’m able to check off another dish from my to-make list! For awhile…
Blueberry Coconut Overnight Oats
For a quick and healthy breakfast on-the-go, make a batch of these overnight (refrigerator) oats with blueberries, toasted coconut, and sliced almonds for a heavenly combination of fresh flavors! In my opinion, breakfast foods are good at all times of the day. Why? because they taste like perfection and are often really fast to make….
Blueberry Muffins with Greek Yogurt
Blueberry Muffins made with Greek yogurt are a great way to add some flavor to your morning! Whether you eat one for breakfast or enjoy as a snack, these muffins are a healthier alternative to many other versions since they don’t have any butter or oil and use a limited amount of sugar. I’ve made…
Coconut Almond Baked Oatmeal
Weekends are the perfect time to make delicious breakfasts, whether it’s pancakes, eggs and bacon, or leftover cold pizza…I mean…what? Well I don’t know about you, but I like trying out new recipes on weekend mornings when I’m feeling motivated. Yesterday, I made baked oatmeal for the first time, and it tasted like dessert—a quality…
Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats
The pumpkin has officially made its debut in our household. What have I made with it? A lot of super random things: a weird pumpkin chai latte, not-bad granola bars, and most notably, pumpkin pie overnight oats! I’m excited to try a lot of new recipes with the ingredient, but until I get more to…
Strawberry Chocolate Muffins with Greek Yogurt
I’ve been on a muffin kick lately. This is the third week in a row I’ve made them. First, it was my Greek Yogurt Banana Bread in muffin form. Then I made the Banana Bran Muffins I shared recently. Yesterday, I made a new recipe that I’ve been wanting to try for months—muffins filled with strawberries,…
Banana Bran Muffins
Since most of the baked goods I make are dessert (not sorry), I figured it was time to branch out and make something more nutritious. I’m talking muffins today, people—banana bread-inspired, bran-filled muffins. Why bran? Because it’s full of fiber, protein, minerals, and phytonutrients. I think I’m an old person at heart because I really…
Banana Walnut Overnight Oats with Cacao Nibs
For the longest time, I’ve been wanting to try this “overnight oats” business. After stumbling across numerous recipes online lately, I finally took 5 minutes out of my time to try it. If you don’t know, the concoction known as overnight oats (or refrigerator oatmeal) is just a mixture of oats, yogurt and/or milk, and…
Two-Ingredient Pancakes
Today is the second day of my diet experiment, and while I’ve only been Paleo for 24 hours, I’m over it. Haha. Apparently I don’t know how to eat without bread, tortillas, chips, crackers, etc. Cutting out dairy, like milk and yogurt, was easier than I thought, but giving up grain has made me sad,…
Almond Oatmeal Breakfast Smoothie
When it comes to smoothies, I go through periods of having them constantly to not making one for months. Well I’m trying to start drinking them again since they can be such awesome meals or snacks. The reason I haven’t been making them much lately is 1. they require effort and 2. I’m sick of…
Breakfast Recipe Roundup
The problem with blogging is that you create all these posts, and then BAM – they’re tucked away in the archives forever. Well today, I’m resurrecting some older posts in case you missed them or need some recipe inspiration. Breakfast Food: The one type of food that can be enjoyed at time of day or…
Sweet & Simple French Toast
When it comes to breakfast foods, I tend to stick to oatmeal, pancakes/waffles, and eggs/bacon. There’s one dish I haven’t had much experience with but have been wanting to master for a long time: French toast. It seems so simple, and apparently, it really is. Soak some bread in an egg mixture and fry them…
Two-Ingredient Protein Waffle
Breakfast food is the best food — morning or night. That is just a fact. Ish. I’m pretty much always down for breakfast foods, be it pancakes, eggs, breakfast burrito, or today’s recipe. Unfortunately, when I make brinner a lot of the time, it’s typically pancakes topped with sugary syrup — aka not the most…
