Just not having to pack 15 lunches a week is cause for celebration enough for me! I'm looking forward to lazy mornings, sunny afternoons and evenings spent sharing stories on the deck. It's not family time if food isn't involved though right? Families love to gather around the food, and the boys and I have created a super fun dessert that is … [Read more...]

Last month my son and I had a little fun in the kitchen making our own version of the no bake Kraft Peanut Butter Snack Bites. Because we are big chocoholics in this house we decided to dress ours up using Kraft Smooth Peanut Butter and a few layers of chocolate! We called them Triple Chocolate Peanut Butter Snack Bites and they were a big hit both at our house and online! Stumble Upon fans gave it a stumble over a thousand times so far and it's been pinned over … [Read more...]

Recently I've been making an effort to incorporate Almond Breeze into some of our regular recipes for the added benefits and curiosity of taste. I started with simple beverages like our Very Berry Almond Smoothie and adding it into our favourite hot chocolate on cold days. We've had a lot of cold days! Eventually, I started to branch out into baking and made some fantastic treats including this amazing Brown Butter Blueberry Bread! Go ahead, say that 3 times … [Read more...]

Apple Zucchini Bread

We are still working our way through our Autumn bounty, can you believe it? I decided to play around with an apple/zucchini combo to kill two birds with one stone and came up with this yummy Apple Zucchini Bread.

The recipe makes two loaves, which I like, because I just wrap one up to freeze for … [Read more...]
