Spanish Style Tortilla

I have been making this easy cheater Spanish style tortilla for years since I first saw the recipe on Serious Eats. I say cheater because it uses a little trick to save time and effort that I love. Instead of thinly slicing potatoes for the dish, it uses salt and vinegar potato chips! I knowContinue reading “Spanish Style Tortilla”

Healthier Glazed Lemon Loaf

I saw this recipe on Kathleen Ashmore’s site and decided to give it a try. I have a lemon loaf recipe I have made a few times, but I wanted to see if this healthier version would still be satisfying. This recipe using mostly reduced fat yogurt for the moisture and only has 1/4 cupContinue reading “Healthier Glazed Lemon Loaf”

Biscuit Cinnamon Rolls

I made these easy biscuit cinnamon rolls a while back, and they are really great if you are in the mood for cinnamon rolls but don’t have the time or desire to make yeasted dough.

I decided to combine the twoContinue reading “Tart Cherry Ricotta Muffins”

I have been looking for some healthier snacks to make lately. I liked the idea of these as a treat, but a slightly healthier version than yourContinue reading “Healthy Peanut Butter Banana Muffins”

My Favorite Homemade Granola

I will let you know up front, this is not healthy granola. If that is what you are looking for, this isn’t your recipe 🙂 This is more of a dessert/ice cream/yogurt/fruit topping type of thing. I usually eat it as a dessert either by the handful or with milk. It is my favorite forContinue reading “My Favorite Homemade Granola”

Buttermilk Banana Muffins

These little buttermilk banana mini muffins have been one of my kids favorite snacks all through their lives. I made so many batches of these for class parties and lunchboxes. They are simple, but so full of flavor and a great little snack. I make these as mini muffins because the outside edges of theseContinue reading “Buttermilk Banana Muffins”
