‘breakfast’

My Grammy used to make the best zucchini bread.  I ask my Aunt Martha for the recipe. Guess what?  The original recipe calls for two cups of sugar AND 3/4 cup vegetable oil.  No wonder it was so good! How do you lighten up zucchini bread? Two things lightened up this zucchini bread recipe.  First, I reduced the oil to 1/4 cup and secondly, I...

These buttermilk blueberry muffins taste like coffee cake and I am not mad about that! Per usual, by the end of the week my fridge is looking a bit bare.  My Mom brought me blueberries last week. Buttermilk was also in my fridge and shockingly not expired – whoop! Shout out to Twig & Lace for the cute coffee stir – she has TONS of...

I hope by now you know that you should at least double or triple your skinny pizza dough for the week if for no other reason to be able to make this breakfast pizza. It has a skinny sausage gravy for the base, crispy potatoes, eggs, cheese and “fried” potato skins on top – #swoon. Please meal prep potatoes for the week too.  They make...

For some reason I woke up this morning and had a taste for apple waffles.  Best idea evah! Now I have breakfast for the week already worked out – love meal prep Sunday. Making my plate sweet and savory was also the best idea.  I have the apple strawberry sauce in the recipe card below. Because I used oats for most of the flour, the...

Do you love Starbuck's sous vide egg bites? Then you'll love my air fryer egg bites - so customizable - love!

If you’ve been following along for a week, a month, a year or all ten years I’ve had this blog, then you know I love cheese.  All the cheese – goat cheese, mozzarella, ricotta, burrata – the list goes on.  I am pretty sure there isn’t a cheese I don’t love. So I was THRILLED when Alouette Cheese reached out to me and asked if...

I made the ultimate breakfast pizza!  You all know how much I love my pizza.  I am thrilled that so many people are loving my skinny pizza dough – it’s just a few additional ingredients to the @ww 2 ingredient dough that’s been going around the interwebs since Greek yogurt is “free” on their new Wellness Works program.   One of my Instagram friends Wendy (wwg4life)...

Copycat Starbucks Vanilla Bean Scones Recipe This copycat Starbucks Vanilla Bean scones recipe will be your go to recipe when making scones. My daughter and her husband are obsessed with Starbucks and typically go at least once, if not twice a day.   They love the vanilla bean scones. Hannah texted me and said “Iowa Girl Eats has a good looking recipe.” I’ve “known” Kristin for...

We went apple picking this weekend!!  And by we – I mean me, Hannah AND Jacob!  Which was the inspiration for these pumpkin apple waffles – its like fall just threw up in your mouth in the best way possible. That’s basically how I write recipes – I look online, take something from one recipe, something from another, then throw my two cents in and...

Chia Pudding Parfait is one of my new favorite breakfasts, but I somehow forget about it.  It could not be simpler to make – just remember this ratio – 3 tablespoons of chia seeds to 1 cup of liquid.  It could be almond milk, soy milk, coconut milk – whatever you have.  Simple stir in a mason jar, top with a lid and let it...
