I cannot stand it when I’m hungry, but I don’t have snacks readily available. I’m sure you’ve been the in the same boat before. Sure, I could run down to the grocery store and buy a box of crackers or a bag of potato chips, but it’s so easy and so much healthier to make snack a home.
That’s why whenever I’m traveling or just want a quick snack, I’ll grab one of these healthy homemade granola bars.
If snacking were an Olympic sport, it’s pretty safe to assume that I’d win the gold medal.
And I’ve got my game face on. It’s football season and I’m ready to eat the best homemade game day food on planet earth, including this insanely delicious Chipotle Gouda Queso Dip.
Now, you guys know I’ve always loved and eaten the heck out of anything and everything that involves spiciness. Not to mention the fact that I’m mildly obsessed with the queso blanco dip you get from most Mexican restaurants. Who isn’t? I haven’t had it in several months, but it’s one of those things you don’t forget the taste of.

This past week has been full of seeds, dirt, and rain. That’s right—we’re starting our fall and winter garden! And the sweet potatoes are thriving! Something about plants growing gets me real giddy.
Today I shared an amazing recipe for healthier chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter frosting. Those have got to be some of the best cupcakes I’ve ever had and I can’t wait for the next birthday do come around so we can make them again. 😉
Also, I wanted to remind you that today is the VERY LAST DAY that the Ultimate Healthy Living Bundle will be available and then it’ll be gone for a whole year. You are not going to want to miss out, guys! It’s a powerhouse of information and resources that simply cannot be passed up.
Sometimes, a girl needs a hefty dose of chocolate and peanut butter.
At least, that was how I was feeling yesterday afternoon while eating one of these beauties. I’m not normally one to make cupcakes, let alone consume them. But when Peanut Butter and Co. sent me a variety of their peanut butter to try out, my brain poured out hundreds (thousands!) of recipes ideas, and these cupcakes were one of them.
The one thing I hear from most people who have never made bread before is that it’s not worth the effort.
Let me ask ya something. Have you ever experienced a bite of fresh homemade bread? Have you ever experienced the wonderful scent that comes from deep within the kitchen while the bread is baking?
No? Well, my friends, if you’ve never made bread at home before, you don’t know what you’re missing out on. And when the effort is hardly anything, I’d say the worth of making bread at home far surpasses the effort when it comes right down to it.
