Homemade Sprinkle Chobani Cookies.

  It’s been a long week. The month of May always seems to be. End-of-year activities, birthdays, projects, swimming etc. etc. The list could go on forever. Today, while my website was getting a much needed facelift, I whipped up, in no time I might add, these fun Chobani-filled sprinkle cookies. They are very reminiscent … 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 »

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 »

Chocolate Avocado Smoothie. (Tastes like pudding!)

I know you’re thinking I must be crazy, right?!  I was hesitant when I ran across this recipe in one of my mags that I had.  I thought why not try it, my youngest daughter is so underweight that the calories (all good) would be a great start to the day.  Protein, good fats… it’s … Continue Reading »

Gluten-Free Baked Chobani Fonuts {doughnuts}.

  Fonuts are fake donuts AKA “not fried”, healthy dare I say?  I’m not a huge donut fan but these little guys… I’ve eaten 3 today!  They are minis after-all, so I don’t have the guilt that I normally would have partaking in such a treat.  Gluten-free as well!  I didn’t want to use any … Continue Reading »

FUNfetti Cookies.

Friday night’s typically involve me making a carb-loaded pizza dinner for my family as my girls swim most Saturday mornings at their dual meets.  In conjunction with that, I always make a special treat to share with our awesome coaches and as a concession stand contribution.  This week I knew what I wanted to make, … Continue Reading »

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Football or Lips Dip.

  My daughter was hosting a Super Bowl party so we searched the internet for a fun dessert idea that would be football themed.  We stumbled upon www.crazyforcrust.com website and knew this was perfect!  I kept the recipe right on for how they did it.  It would also be super fun encrusted with red sprinkles … Continue Reading »

Chocolate Chip PB Cup Minis.

  This is one of those OHHHHH mmmmm GEEE recipes.  It’s the perfect storm of chocolate, chocolate and oh wait, peanut butter!  I made these for our concession stand “contribution” for our swim meet tomorrow.  Standard protocol for sweets at a swim meet.  I think it should be dubbed “Junk food heaven” if you asked … Continue Reading »

OXO Good Grips Cookie Press Butter Cookies

  OXO sent me some foodie swag this week and I have to tell you, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it and use it in the kitchen.  I have a an older cookie press I believe from Williams Sonoma that isn’t that easy to use.  I’ve honestly always shied away from using … Continue Reading »

Lemon Bars.

{Will take better finished product/staged photos tomorrow – just got home from a fabulous party and daylight is gone.} My husband is allergic to chocolate, cocoa specifically, and never really gets to eat dessert that I make for the family (not that he’s a big dessert fan).  Today, I wanted to make a recipe using … Continue Reading »
