Caramel Apple Cider Donuts

Caramel Apple Cider Donuts Recipe

I just saw the first leaf fall from the trees in Atlanta and I am officially declaring today the start of the fall season! Ok, maybe it was from Hurricane Sally ripping them from the trees, but still. I need an excuse to start this season early because it’s the greatest, most joyful time of year. From here until the end of the year it’s cozy and festive. This is MY season! What the playoff season is to the NFL, the fall/holiday season is to me. It’s my prime. It’s BAKING SEASON, PEOPLE!! And today we are kicking it off (football pun intended) with a recipe for Caramel Apple Cider Donuts!

I hope you love making this as much as I did! Read More

Keto Friendly High-Protein Chocolate Mug Cake

High Protein Keto Friendly Chocolate Mug Cake

Can I just start by saying this keto friendly, high protein chocolate mug cake is only 200 calories?

I’ve been on a quest to find a complete replica of a brownie-like cake that could satisfy my instant gratification while not ruining all the hard work I’ve put into eating cleaner and working hard at the gym.  Not a black bean brownie, nor fake sugar that leaves a gross aftertaste in your mouth. The past few years I’ve tried “healthy” sweets and yes, it can be good when you’re totally desperate, but I wanted better.

I was yearning for a true dessert that tasted like, well… dessert! There are really good keto recipes out there that are really good, but they are also high in fat and calories. Since I am not doing keto, I really don’t want the extra numbers in my dessert. So I am super excited to share this recipe with you today that can give us the best of both worlds.

Oh, and I forgot to mention this dessert is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, low carb/sugar, low fat and high protein!

200 CAL  •  6g FAT  •  11g CARBS   •  4g SUGAR  •   15g PROTEIN

School Cafeteria Brownies

School Cafeteria Brownies Recipe

These retro brownies make me reminisce on my elementary school days. I can taste the memories just by looking at these photos. Weren’t those school years just the good ole’ days!? When all you had to worry about was simple things (like , when is snack time?). It’s funny how we think back to our childhood and it’s often just the good stuff you remember. At least for me. Sure there were plenty of bad things too but I find it is interesting that I always look *back* when I think about the best times of my life. Total side bar, there is a quote from the final season of The Office when  Andy says:

“I wish there was a way to know you are in the good ole days, before you’ve actually left them”.

Such a simple quote but I think about it often. Who knows what lies ahead for any of us, in just months or years from now you may look back on today and realize how lucky you are, how easy you had it, or how grateful you should’ve been. Sorry to get so deep on a post about brownies, LOL, but this feels very relevant to mental space lately.  Read More

Rib-Eye Sliders with Garlic Parmesan Cream Sauce

Rib-Eye Sliders with Garlic Parmesan Cream Sauce Recipe

Super Bowl Sunday!!!!! Even when I don’t have a team I am rooting for, I still love Super Bowl Sunday every year. It’s basically another fun holiday to look forward to. Time with your friends and family, and most importantly, a reason to cook them awesome food! I’m super excited about these Rib-Eye Sliders with Garlic Parmesan Cream Sauce. It’s a lot of gourmet love packed into one tiny sandwich. But it’s really the perfect size, snackable, hand-held and finished in a few quick bites. Just enough to satisfy the steak urge while still leaving room for the hot corn dip, buffalo dip, brisket mac & cheese sliders and delicious desserts… that I plan on eating. Possibly all on the same plate 😉 Read More

Holiday Moroccan Coffee Recipe

Holiday Moroccan Coffee (Alcoholic)

This deliciously intense Moroccan coffee recipe was made especially for my New Years blog post by my father who is an amazing cook. The only thing that tops his cooking is his mixology skills. Although he’d never refer to himself as a mixologist, that’s really what he is. Every detail is thought through from the infused salt rim of the glass down to the specific brands he is using. When I asked him to create a special drink recipe for my blog, I just knew he would be so extra! 🙂 Read More
