This recipe for pumpkin biscotti is hands down the best one I’ve made yet.  And I’ve made a lot of biscotti over the years! There is a fine balance between being crispy enough, without being hard to bite, but also tender enough so it doesn’t crumble.  This recipe achieved both goals! What is biscotti? Biscotti originated in Italy, and mean “twice baked.”  They are crisp...

Every September it’s like Christmas to me because the seasonal granola is out from Safe + Fair!  These pumpkin crunch muffins are the best muffins I’ve ever made. Light, fluffy, tender crumb and the pumpkin crunch on top just seals the deal. In my heavier days, I lived on giant sized bakery muffins as my “pre-breakfast.”  You know, the breakfast you eat on the train...

You must put these banana bread pancakes on the top of your list to meal prep this week.  So delicious! For whatever reason lately, once I buy bananas, if I don’t eat any the day I buy them, the next day they are basically ready to use as banana bread.  When my son-in-law lived here, I made so many things with bananas because Hannah wouldn’t...

These mini pumpkin chocolate chip muffins make a great breakfast and are perfect for meal prep. Once I posted these on Instagram, the question I got most was “I don’t have mini loaf pans – can I make it into a bigger loaf?”  I have no idea – I actually don’t think it would be enough to fill a regular loaf pan.  These mini loaf...

Potato and Sausage Frittata This potato and sausage frittata is a great meal prep recipe AND a great way to use up veggies at the end of the week. Do you make a frittata in the oven or on the stovetop? You can do either method, but I prefer the oven method.  It’s kind of like “set it and forget it.”  I used baby spinach...
