What is it about a warm, moist (sorry, sensitive readers) loaf in the morning that just screams comfort? When it is packed with juicy blueberries and lemon zest, it is game over. It is perfection. Seriously, trust us, we are amateur food bloggers. This recipe is so easy, and we cannot seem to stop making it! Is making it three times in one week excessive? Try this recipe for yourself to find out.
Arizona Winters are funny. It drops below 60 degrees, and people lose their minds. One of our friends had three different jacket types in her car this weekend to prepare for these extreme temperatures. These cold, bleary winter mornings (laugh it up, Midwesterns) are the perfect time to create something delicious and hearty for breakfast. If you made our Egg White Cups, you know we love to have a lot of variety when it comes to our breakfasts, since we prep everything to keep things easy. This recipe contains everything we love– peanut butter, bananas, and carbs. As an added bonus, it contains complex carbohydrates and healthy fat to keep you full and energized all day without being a sugar bomb. Continue reading
Thankfully, it is not rude to write with your mouth full of food like it is considered to be when talking to someone. Because this is the reality. As this post is being constructed, know that the Healthy Cinnamon Coffee Cake is filling our mouths and bellies. As avid coffee drinkers, we love to cozy up with a baked good some mornings to break up our standard protein packed breakfasts. This recipe is the perfect blend of spice and sweet, all while checking off the perfectly moist box and the added-nuts-for-texture box. Are you fired up yet? Continue reading
Now that you have a homemade Chai Tea Latte recipe from A Healthy Hint, it only feels right to pair it with some homemade pumpkin scones and swaddle yourself in every piece of flannel that you own. We want to bring you healthy recipes and hints, but we always want to encourage you to recognize the importance of balance. This recipe may have more sugar than some of our recipes, but if there is one thing we cannot stress enough, it is that your healthy lifestyle is truly a marathon, not a sprint. Take time to create some spiced, sugary goodness, and enjoy all that fall has to offer you!
Chia seeds are one of our favorite add-ins for a lot of our recipes, since they can be sprinkled on top, blended in, or mixed in for texture to almost any recipe, and the bland flavor of the seeds won’t impact the overall taste of the meal. Our advice to you is always keep a floss stick nearby since these tiny seeds always manage to get wedged in between your teeth, but we can’t stop-won’t stop using them in our recipes for all the health benefits they yield. They are a superfood, meaning they pack a ton of health benefits, and the more we can incorporate a superfood into our meal, the better!
PSLs, scarves, and the changing of leaves. We are internally screaming because FALL IS FINALLY HERE. Can we get a cyber “WOOO?!” As Phoenix residents, this time of year is slightly less joyous as our fall season consists of short shorts and 90-degree days. We are still faking it though and rejoicing in all things pumpkin, while watching Hocus Pocus over and over again. It’s only right that we kick off the season with a pumpkin recipe. It is so hard to pick just one, but this was a personal favorite and the perfect treat to kick off autumn.
We are notorious oat consumers. We put oats in EVERYTHING, from cookies to protein shakes to yogurt, and anything else we feel could use some extra texture. This means we think beyond breakfast with our oat passion, and bring them into lunches, dinner, snacks, and general food add-ons. We could go on and on about the multi purposes uses of oats, how they can be used in almost anything, and served warm, cold or dry but since no one has time for that, we will hit you with the basics.
