cookies for breakfast!

On February 17, 2012 By

Blog reader Sher recently mes­saged me with a bak­ing chal­lenge of sorts. She was look­ing for a healthy, hearty break­fast cookie that she could feel good about giv­ing her kids, but that they would actu­ally, you know, eat.

Chal­lenge accepted, my friend. This was espe­cially timely because I’ve been in a bit of a […]

oaty oats

On November 23, 2011 By

It’s not news that I love oat­meal. Once the tem­per­a­tures drop below 50, it’s my break­fast of choice. And like other blank palettes (muffins, pan­cakes), what I really love about it is that it’s so ver­sa­tile. You never have to have the same oat­meal twice. It’s also break­fast super-fuel; full of fiber and pro­tein to […]

sprouted cookies = win!

On January 24, 2011 By

Okay, so tech­ni­cally quick bread was the win­ner of my sprouted wheat poll, but after con­sid­er­ing it I thought I’d take cook­ies for a spin with this first batch. I really wanted some­thing that would bake for a shorter amount of time to really show­case the fla­vor of the flour. The fresh flour has […]

black friday fuel

On November 25, 2010 By

Or lay-on-the-couch-and-watch-TV-all-day fuel. Or Tofurky-coma-hangover-need-energy-to-tolerate-family-I-only-see-this-time-of-year fuel. What­evs. It works in any scenario.

While you worry about the food for today, let me worry about the food for tomor­row. Use some of the left­over ele­ments of Thanks­giv­ing that will be lurk­ing in your fridge, des­tined to mold (ah, we all have such good inten­tions, don’t we?), […]
