The final recipe in my week of recipes from the book Superfood Kitchen is Good Seed Crackers. I have always wanted to try my hand at homemade crackers and since I already had the chia seed on hand from the Lemon Coconut Bars, I only needed to pick up two ingredients for this recipe, hemp… Continue reading Good Seed Crackers
Kale and Black Eyed Pea Soup
The second recipe that caught my eye in the book Superfood Kitchen was kale and black eyed pea soup. Once again I landed on this one because it didn't call for too many unusual ingredients and we had most everything already in stock in the kitchen. I have been wanting to work kale back into… Continue reading Kale and Black Eyed Pea Soup

Lemon Coconut Bars
A couple weeks ago I checked out the book Superfood Kitchenby Julie Morris from the library. I saw a post about the book with a recipe over at Chocolate Covered Katie and was intrigued by a cookbook all about superfoods. I casually read parts of the introductory chapters and then started perusing the recipes. The… Continue reading Lemon Coconut Bars

Sweet Potato Black Bean Quesadillas
Lately I have not posted many of my own recipes. There are so many great recipes out there I figure, why recreate the wheel? I'm perfectly happy making others creations and reporting back on the outcome. This recipe, however, is our own creation and is one of my favorite dinners. I think we came up… Continue reading Sweet Potato Black Bean Quesadillas

Heart Cookies
I mentioned the other day that I reconnected with roll-out sugar cookies over Christmas. Our son had a lot of fun making them so we vowed to do it again for other holidays this year. No reason sugar cookies can only be made at Christmas right? I think with a cookie like this, it's best… Continue reading Heart Cookies

We started adding quinoa to our breakfast routine when we realized how much our toddler loves it. You can make breakfast quinoa similar to oatmeal. Cook it up and throw in whatever you might normally add to oatmeal. It's a really nice alternative and it has a ton of protein to keep you going until… Continue reading Chocolate Breakfast Quinoa

Spinach Pesto Lasagna
A mother's responsibility involves scooping up your child to kiss his "bonked finger" as soon as you walk in the door before you even take off your coat or set down your bag. And that's exactly what I did. And then we ate. Benzo had whipped up a pan of spinach pesto lasagna based on… Continue reading Spinach Pesto Lasagna

Sun-Dried Tomato Cream Sauce
Last weekend I whipped up a batch of sun-dried tomato cream sauce in my Vitamix. I had a carton of heavy cream in the fridge plus I'd been wanting to use the Vitamix for something other than a smoothie for a change. When I saw the recipe for sun-dried tomato cream sauce in the Vitamix… Continue reading Sun-Dried Tomato Cream Sauce

Football Cookies
It's been awhile but I'm going to try to start posting on here again from time to time. I will try to do some short posts on different things we are trying at home. No promises on consistency though! Yesterday was Superbowl Sunday. I was feeling festive so I made football cookies! Over Christmas I… Continue reading Football Cookies

Mini Quinoa Cakes
Amy introduced our family to quinoa some time ago. We have mostly reserved it for a side dish, either standing on its own, or tossed with veggies, beans, dried fruit or other additions for a pilaf-style salad side dish. Amy has a post on here about a quinoa loaf we made that was good, but… Continue reading Mini Quinoa Cakes
