Healthy Peach Dump Cake (Gluten-Free)

August 20, 2012 by Melissa

So I started my weekend at the Farmer’s Market, which is one of my favorite places. This Saturday, though, I was panicking. The end of summer is upon us and all of the things I intended to buy “next week” were no longer there! Where were the figs? I told myself that I would buy figs! And I didn’t! I’m so sad…oh look, peaches! Yay, peaches…maybe I’ll buy some next week…No! Stop that. I made myself … [Read more...]

Healthy Coconut Almond Granola

August 13, 2012 by Melissa

Remember this Foodie Penpal package I received? Carrie used her favorite recipe from Two Peas and Their Pod to make me a batch of granola, knowing I love to make my own granola too. Since trying the original recipe, I decided to put my own spin on it and make my own Healthy Coconut Almond Granola that is just as addictive and delicious but with a fraction of the calories! Cheers to breakfast! … [Read more...]

Trail Mix Cookie Fudge

August 7, 2012 by Melissa

Don’t strike me down, but I never liked fudge. I didn’t like how rich it was and never felt a need to feel that sick after eating a treat. But, lately, certain aspects of fudge have started appealing to me. I don’t want the kind that is so sugary that you drop into a coma, but a small, satisfying piece of chocolate sounds quite nice. Instead of the usual mix-in suspects (peanut butter, walnuts, … [Read more...]

Apple Honey Oat Bran Muffins

August 6, 2012 by Melissa

I love when inspiration is sent to me right when I need it. My best friend texted me the other day and said “I love honey bran muffins!”Well, that just sounded too good to pass up. I knew that I wanted to make them gluten free with oat bran instead of wheal bran, sweetened with honey, and I knew that they needed a subtle touch of fruit too…thus, my Apple Honey Oat Bran Muffin was born! … [Read more...]

Maple-Doodle Cookies (Gluten-Free)

August 3, 2012 by Melissa

My little brother (I say little, but of course he’s of adult age, taller and quite a bit bigger than I am, but you know what I mean) Tweeted me the other night. I didn’t get it until I woke up, but it was him telling me he missed me. Wow. Nothing brings tears to my eyes quicker. When I think of my brother, I think of Snickerdoodles. But, because I’m still rolling in maple sugar (pun!) I knew that … [Read more...]

Mocha Coconut Cookies

August 2, 2012 by Melissa

I’m sure you’re sick of hearing me drone on and on about how much I love Mocha Coconut Frappuccinos from Starbucks. It was a special edition flavor that introduced me to the world of Starbucks (at way too young of an age), then was ripped from me for years, then re-introduced after I’d cut such deliciousness out of my diet…so a few indulgences now and then never hurt anyone.Don't these just look … [Read more...]
