This recipe for Easy Skillet Granola is a delicious way to start the day…and takes minutes to make! It is also vegan and can be nut free and gluten free.

As much as we love granola, it is not something that we buy very often.

Blueberry Buttermilk Bundt Cake

November 5, 2014 ·

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Frozen Food Foundation for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

Blueberry Buttermilk Bundt Cake is a sweet, tangy vanilla cake bursting with juicy blueberries throughout. So simple, delicious and easy!

All summer, I was planning to make a blueberry buttermilk cake, however my family eats through containers of blueberries so quickly, I never had enough to make the cake. Fast forward to a few weeks ago, I ran across this recipe for a Lemon Blueberry Cake. With a few modifications, I thought this recipe could become a perfect Blueberry Buttermilk Bundt Cake. I became obsessed with making this recipe, despite our love for everything pumpkin this time of year. Mid-fall is not really blueberry season.

Then I was at the grocery store, picking up the usual frozen peas and corn for the kids, and it hit me…frozen blueberries! Frozen blueberries (and fruits and vegetables in general) are a much more affordable, convenient and easy to serve option. I tossed a bag in my basket and looked forward to creating a Blueberry Buttermilk Bundt Cake!…

Oatmeal Raisin Muffins

September 17, 2014 ·

Oatmeal Raisin Muffins are a wholesome snack, or breakfast on-the-go, made delicious with raisins, oats, buttermilk and brown sugar.

The other day after school, while Greta was napping, Adam presented me with a cookbook. A cookbook that was all about muffins. That’s my kind of cookbook! He proceeded to point out several recipes that we should make…now! I was inspired by an Oatmeal Breakfast Muffin, but needed to switch up the ingredients to use up what we had on hand (no way am I waking the baby to go to the store!) After a quick peek in the pantry, I found oatmeal, brown sugar, buttermilk and California Raisins. Sounds like the makings of a tasty Oatmeal Raisin Muffin!…

Vanilla Mixed Berry Smoothie is an easy recipe for a delicious smoothie that tastes like a berries and cream dessert. This is one of my favorite smoothies! {vegan, gluten free}

With school in full swing, to say that mornings are hectic is an understatement. I wake up before the crack of dawn to get in a quick workout before the kids are awake. Then I get home, hop in the shower, get the kids fed, dressed and we’re out the door. Sitting down for a leisurely breakfast is definitely not in my future for the next…15+ years? Healthy, easy breakfast recipes are key, like this Vanilla Mixed Berry Smoothie!
