  So, you’ve bought some plain Greek yogurt, and you feel like it tastes like sour cream. Major letdown. No one (that I know) wants straight sour cream for breakfast. I know, you’ve heard the hype: “high protein!” “low fat!” “creamy texture!” “removes cellulite!” (kidding on that last one… I wanted to make sure you were [...]

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this, but we’ve been accomplishing #61 on our 101 Things to Do in 1001 Days list: eat meatless for a month. Meatless month has been a beautiful thing. It’s been great to try out new recipes, save money (meat is pricey!), and generally feel good about the sheer volume [...]

I couldn’t help it! I’m sure you’re thinking “enough with the breakfast already!” but we’ve just been feeling the breakfast love around these parts. Especially since weekends practically BEG for something like this. These are one of my new favorites. Best of all they’re both delicious and pretty nutritious!

Michael and I got talking about stuffed French toast one afternoon after seeing a photo of a delicious-looking Nutella-and-banana-stuffed  number. We got talking about all kinds of different combinations we could try, and while we’re excited about lots of the possibilities (blueberry-lemon, Nutella-banana, strawberries-and-cream), we were most excited about trying a raspberry French toast.

I’ve been challenging myself to clean out my freezer and pantry this month, so some of the meals we’ve been eating are, shall we say, interesting? Last week, we had breakfast for dinner a few times, and I made a few different smoothies to help clear out our frozen fruit stash. My favorite was this [...]

 Do you eat breakfast for dinner? I love it. I get into breakfast for dinner phases here and there. I should give you fair warning: I’m in one of those phases. Especially since Sophie’s been tolerating eggs better lately, we’ve been enjoying eating dishes that include them. Waffles are one of our favorite breakfasts for [...]
