Healthy Carrot Date Coconut Muffins.

I love healthy muffins! These are packed with great ingredients without all the guilt of fat-ladened traditional muffins.  The Medjool dates add a bit of sweetness (think of raisins in muffins), the carrots add some great texture and the coconut oil and flakes is a double whammy of flavor!  Plus using coconut oil is so … Continue Reading »

Grilled Naan with Chobani. {pizza crust}

I wanted to try my hand at making homemade Naan.  My husband’s college roommate was Indian and he had several recipes from him that I wanted to transform and use in different ways.  I whipped this recipe up and tried it out on the gas grill outside and it turned out perfectly!  Tonight we are … Continue Reading »

Cherry Almond Chobani Flax Muffins.

  Once again, my trip to the Farmer’s Market, on this very rainy day, dictated what I would create and post here today.  Cherries were everywhere and I couldn’t be happier.  I purchased about 5 lbs and couldn’t wait to get home to whip up some delicious muffins for snacking.  I always love to make … Continue Reading »

Cookie Butter Chobani Banana Bread.

I always have a lot of bananas on hand.  I eat several a day.  But by the time Monday rolls around, I’m feverishly cleaning out my fruits and veggies to prepare for my Farmer’s Market trip tomorrow morning.  While out walking Sam (our dog) I thought COOKIE BUTTER!  Why not?!  Okay so not everything I … Continue Reading »

Pesto egg a la baguette.

  This is such an oldie but goodie recipe and I haven’t made it in about a year.  My family loves it for dinner and then for breakfast the next morning.  I added some leftover kale pistachio pesto (from last week) into the eggs – click here for that recipe and this was over the … Continue Reading »

Whole Wheat Homemade Pitas.

Lemon Blueberry Quinoa Bread with Chobani.

Today at the Farmer’s Market I picked up several lemons and packages of blueberries with the hope of whipping up a batch of bread this morning.  The sun is shining, the weather is gloriously warm and I thought it would be a lovely treat for my family.  I opted to add some cooked quinoa (tri-color) … Continue Reading »

Zucchini Carrot Chobani Muffins.

These muffins are a take-off on another carrot recipe I make.  I bought some zucchini and thought it would be good to sneak some extra veggies into my family’s snack this week.  The muffins are super moist, protein-packed and heavenly.  No added oils to weigh them or you down!  A must try for a lunch … Continue Reading »

Pumpkin Oatmeal Chobani Muffins.

                                  Today is a snowy, rainy, basically icky kind of Monday.  After I ran and got my daughter to school, I figured I would start baking.  I need to bake for a school event on Wednesday and I’m quite … Continue Reading »

Carrot & Toasted Coconut Bread (or muffins).

  My daughter has been devouring carrots lately and I thought I would make some bread for her to snack on or have for a quick breakfast option.  This recipe has no added fat, which makes it even better but wait – I did add some non fat Chobani for extra protein for muscle recovery. … Continue Reading »
