Super Skinny Strawberry Milkshake

May 9, 2012 by Melissa

I’ve been sitting out by the pool on my days off. I can’t believe it’s been almost 90 degrees here and that I’m inside and done before noon! When I was done sweating and trying to read my book, I was more than eager to get into my kitchen and whip up a Super Skinny Strawberry Milkshake! After I tried this shake for the first time, I not only texted everyone to tell them how excited I was, but I … [Read more...]

Multi-Rice Pudding (Dairy-Free)

May 8, 2012 by Melissa

I have recently discovered that I love Rice Pudding. Yes, I’m late to the boat. I first tried it right before running the half-marathonbecause Jessi had made some and had it in the fridge. It was so yummy and creamy and I devoured it cold, just like the cold oats I love so much. I knew, however, that I just had to make it myway as soon as I could. Well, I’ve finally gotten around to tackling it, … [Read more...]

Vegan Vanilla Chai Muffins

May 7, 2012 by Melissa

I was really inspired when I saw this Pistachio-Chai Muffin on the Cooking Light website. I had just bought a box of vanilla chai tea bags and knew that using them in baking would be brilliant, because anything I baked would pair well with a cup of the brewed tea. To make it a bit healthier, I’ve changed it up a bit (of course) and even turned it into a vegan recipe. I love the results and you … [Read more...]

Almond Joy Oatmeal

May 4, 2012 by Melissa

I've said it many times in the past: I love chocolate, coconut, and almonds...hence, I love Almond Joys. I've heard that it is actually unusual for a kid to consider that one of their favorite candy bars, which just means to me that some poor kid's parents are hoarding the Almond Joys and letting the kids eat the lesser candy bars (how selfish). Well, here's a way to share Almond Joys with the … [Read more...]

Pina Colada Popcorn Mix

May 2, 2012 by Melissa

Here's the next pina colada recipe for you: Pina Colada Popcorn Mix! It definitely combines a summery punch of flavors and my favorite snack, popcorn. Plus, Cinco de Mayo is coming up, and I know that everyone chugs margaritas on that day, but I feel like pina coladas are equally festive, and transport you to the beach in Mexico. So, lap up the beach with this little number.Pina Colada Popcorn … [Read more...]

A Few Bites of Denver

May 1, 2012 by Melissa

Well, the mister and I went to Denver, CO for the weekend to visit my family. I had every intention of typing up a post while I was there and sharing a recipe with everyone on Monday, but alas I cannot find the recipe that I wrote down and put somewhere in my luggage...so I can't share that with you just yet. So, I thought I would share just a couple photos of treats I ate this weekend while I … [Read more...]

Pina Colada Overnight Oats

April 27, 2012 by Melissa

You know I'm obsessed with oatmeal. My overnight oats usually follow the same formula [oats: almond milk: yogurt: berries/add-ins] but I decided to change it up a little for this tropical delight. I love the splash of summer flavors during a warm spring, and it just makes the morning a little brighter.  Pina Colada Overnight Oats¼ cup old fashioned oats½ cup water¼ cup canned lite coconut milk¼ … [Read more...]

Pina Colada Breakfast Cake

April 26, 2012 by Melissa

I keep getting to enjoy hot sunny days by the pool, followed by gloomy cold days stuck inside layered in sweatshirts. It’s the sunny hot days that keep me holding my breath when the weatherman comes on the TV. And when I hear “85 and sunny,” you know what instantly pops into my head? “Do you like pina coladas? Getting caught in the rain?”  Well, yes, yes I do! And I crave them every time I get … [Read more...]

Here’s my solution to a spiced nutty cookie that is packed with nothing but goodness. Quinoa? Check. Oats? Check. Goji berries? Check. No fat? Super check!!I must warn you, the dough to this is amazing! It's nutty and full of warm spices and a bright zing from the goji … [Read more...]
