Morning Glory Muffins {Gluten Free}

August 8, 2018 by Melanie 16 Comments

Morning Glory Muffins {Gluten Free}

Morning Glory Muffins are loaded with a little bit of everything, from oats to zucchini, and make the perfect breakfast and snack! Fruits and veggies, nuts and whole grains- all rolled into one muffin? That’s what I call a balanced bite. Because these do not contain any flour, they aren’t super fluffy like normal muffins,…

Applesauce Muffins {Whole Grain}

April 15, 2016 by Melanie 5 Comments

Applesauce Muffins {Whole Grain}

You’ll taste hints of cinnamon and nutmeg in these super duper moist applesauce muffins.  I used to make an applesauce cake, which is simple and delicious but pretty high in sugar. The strange thing is that it didn’t even taste overly sweet. 2 cups of sugar….break that down per serving and it’s too much to…

Hi friends! How was your weekend? I am officially swamped getting the house ready to be packed up, trying to get some blogging work accomplished so that I can take off a few weeks this summer and trying to find a new home (and schools) which is proving to be more difficult than I’d like! Eek!…

Healthy Snacking with Nourish Snacks + Giveaway

My family snacks. A lot. And I am ok with that because I believe healthy snacking bridges the gap between meals and prevents from overeating. However, I get bored of having the same things in the house all the time so I am always looking for new healthy snacks to try. Joy Bauer, RD and…

Back-to-School Snacking with NatureBox & Lunch Tips

It’s back to school week over here. My oldest started 2nd grade yesterday and my daughter started kindergarten! As much as I will miss having my daughter around, she has gotten to the point where she just wants to do stuff all day. Since her two youngest siblings take up a lot of my time…

Green Ways to Pack A Lunch

Hi friends! Today I want to talk about environmentally friendly ways to pack a lunch.  I always keep foil, saran wrap and plastic baggies on hand, but we rarely use them for our lunches because there are so many great reusable options. For the month of August my three oldest are all attending my daughter’s…

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

I confess, I don’t really like chocolate in my banana bread. I prefer it straight up and traditional with lots of banana flavor and walnuts. This one, my kids love. What’s not to love if you’re a kid? Bread, banana and chocolate? I have been baking on a regular basis so that they can have…

Back to School Lunches & a Giveaway!

My oldest starts kindergarten today! I am so excited and what’s even better is that his school doesn’t start until 9:05am! Dream!! The only bad thing is that the full day kindergarten filled up so quickly that he is in a half day kindergarden class which is only 3 hours. Boo. I was so excited…
