Giveaway Winner!

November 27, 2011 by Melissa

First off, thank you so much to everyone who entered to win my Go Max Go Black Friday (and Saturday) giveaway! I loved reading all of the things you're thankful for (and I agree, I wasn't thankful for that football game...moment of silence please...). I did a random drawing by writing all entries on pieces of paper that were all the same size and picking out of a bowl with my eyes closed tight … [Read more...]

Cranberry Crisp

November 26, 2011 by Melissa

And the leftovers recipes have begun! Everybody knows that this is the best part of Thanksgiving…the food that can be morphed into so many delights after the big day. This year, I made homemade cranberry sauce, and this was the first leftovers transformation that was made: cranberry crisp. If you have cans of cranberry sauce, you can use that too, but this is just amazing with the homemade version … [Read more...]

Banana Walnut Biscotti

November 23, 2011 by Melissa

My mom absolutely loves biscotti. I usually try to make her some when I visit, so when I was going to pull out the same recipe I always use for her biscotti, something struck me: I have a fridge full of over-ripe bananas to use and I need to try something new! So, I made biscotti that have all the flavors of banana bread but have a wonderfully classic biscotti texture (thanks to the … [Read more...]

Enjoy Life: Allergen-Free Crunchy Cookies

November 20, 2011 by Melissa

And the snacking continues...As someone who has been experimenting with baking that excludes a lot of allergens, It's hard for me to purchase a store-bought baked good and be impressed. I also happen to work in a bakery that has seemed to master gluten free cookies that taste even better than "ordinary" cookies. So, when I got the opportunity to try these allergen-free cookies from Enjoy Life, I … [Read more...]

Honey Graham Crackers

November 18, 2011 by Melissa

 I guess you'd call this a "serving suggestion" :) One of my favorite cookies/crackers is a graham cracker. I love their honey taste and that they are a canvas for a multitude of snacks and desserts. If you hadn't noticed, it's creeping awfully close to holiday baking time, so I'm trying to get a jump start on experimenting with the recipes I want to use for Christmas this year, and I know that … [Read more...]

Baked Banana Oatmeal

November 17, 2011 by Melissa

Here's yet another way to prepare your morning oatmeal! It's baked in ramekins, so it resembles a morning cake. If you don't have the time in the morning (which is why I love my cold oats recipes so much), then make your baked oatmeal the night before, refrigerate it, and the next morning re-heat it in the microwave!Baked Banana Oatmeal1/2 ripe banana (I keep a bunch in my freezer, so I just cut … [Read more...]

Attune Bars: a healthy chocolate review

November 15, 2011 by Melissa

So, I've been in a very snack-y mood lately. I think it's because the weather has been changing so much (one day it's rainy, the next it's freezing, the next it's breezy and 75 degrees...ahh). As a result, almost everything I've been eating has been small and could be dropped in the "snack food" category. Of course, I've tried to keep these snacks as healthy as possible, like yesterday's … [Read more...]

Chickpea Snack’ums

November 14, 2011 by Melissa

Ever have those moments of coincidence with internet topics? Here's mine for the day: I wrote a list of things to bake this weekend, and on that list was a chickpea snack. I was thinking the popcorn equivalent of chickpeas, toasted and seasoned with yummy spices (maybe curry? maybe garlic? maybe sweet cinnamon?). Great idea, right? The answer to that is a resounding yes! Because then the next day … [Read more...]
