Happy Easter! Meal prep is such a buzz word all over the internet, it seems there are hundreds of ideas out there that people are sharing. I do like the idea behind it but I don’t think one size fits all and are you going to plan/eat the same thing every single day? Probably not! Could you for a couple or a few day I … Continue reading Macro friendly weekly Frittata
With Mother’s Day coming up next week I wanted to give you a breakfast or brunch option that tasted as good as it looked. It also needed to tick off a few of my important boxes; mainly using ingredients that most everyone has on hand; be pretty simple and not take you all morning to make. This is only the third homemade cinnamon roll I have … Continue reading Homemade Cinnamon Roll under an hour

The inspiration for this weeks recipe came from my girlfriend making a healthy muffin as something to grab on the way out the door in the … Continue reading Healthy Yummy Oatmeal Muffins
A few weeks ago I ripped out a page from a cooking magazine that looked like something we would eat. I do this ALL the time and have SO many pages that I don’t really know how to deal with them.

The garden is winding down a bit, and I’m OK with it. It looks like my zucchini and summer squash harvesting days are over but they were very good to us this year. I am going to go on record today and say that I am all set with making zucchini bread for the year. I even had enough very large zucchinis to make a … Continue reading Lemon Zucchini Tea Cake
In keeping with my recent theme of using up what I have on hand I had some leftover buttermilk. I bought it for a specific use of making a Texas Sheet Cake to bring as a little something sweet for the group of us that were cleaning out my uncle in-laws house that he has lived in for 56 years which the last 24 were alone … Continue reading Buttermilk Waffles
Woke this morning to the ground covered in beautiful snow! I know it’s April and I know it won’t be sticking around so that is why I can say it is beautiful. For the last 3 weeks I have been buying less groceries and using up what I have and I swear I have barely made a dent; at least in the freezers. I am … Continue reading Apple Butter Bars
Firstly Happy Valentine’s Day -I hope everyone had or is having a nice day! So my vacation was amazing even though I had a sore throat for most of it and ended up coming home with strep throat; never had that before and it sucked! I would do it all again, minus the throat issue. My job on the boat was galley cook; I … Continue reading Banana’s Foster Buckle
