We love muffins around here. My children would live off of my homemade bread and muffins if I let them. And these muffins are one of our favorite! They have definitely been a staple around here lately. Sometimes I double the recipe to make extra for the freezer….except somehow they never make it there.
Yay for a tasty green smoothie! Have you jumped on the smoothie train yet? If not, you should! They’re super easy to throw together, delicious tasting, and packed full of good-for-you vitamins and minerals!
No time to prep in the morning? Pop the fruit and greens in a freezer bag, pull out in the a.m., and blend with liquid. Ta-da – you’re out the door with your healthy breakfast!

Oftentimes we’ll opt for an egg and cheese sandwich on whole grain sprouted bread but today I decided to take it up a notch……with homemade biscuits! I’ve never made biscuits before but I picked up a new rolling pin last week and was excited to use it again.
