Crazy About Quinoa

April 16, 2012 by Melissa

I think it’s safe to say I love quinoa. I’ve posted a few recipes using quinoa, and I promise, I will post more in the near future. Quinoa is nature’s “perfect food” because it is a gluten-free grain that is packed with protein, so it is balanced and metabolized without spiking your blood sugar.(Quinoa Banana Pancakes:) I use quinoa everyday, sometimes in several meals. ·      I like to use it … [Read more...]

Peanut Butter Banana Bread Parfait

April 12, 2012 by Melissa

Sometimes you need a dessert option that looks beautiful but feels healthy, or a breakfast option that tastes healthy but looks decadent; this is both! Remember my Vegan Peanut Butter Banana Bread?

April 4, 2012 by Melissa

Blueberry Orange Almond Pancakes, for one

April 2, 2012 by Melissa

My dearest Steven,While you were away this weekend, the washing machine flooded part of our apartment. I spent hours trying to get water out of the carpet, and now, we have no dry towels. I have no change, so I can’t dry them at the community drier in the building. I’m sorry. Please accept these pancakes and try not to freak out because I think we need to buy a new washer. Love you! … [Read more...]
