Read MoreBacon, Chive & Cheddar Eggs in Clouds
Weekends are for sleeping in, having fun, and experiments in the kitchen. While my mom has been here visiting me, we've been having a lot of fun taking turns with playing around in the kitchen for breakfast in the mornings. And today was no different. We've discussed 'eggs in clouds' a few times before, but today was the day!
It's a pretty simple little breakfast that looks far more impressive than it really is with its handful of basic and minimal ingredients...
Read MoreHealthy Blender Brownies
I’ve made healthy brownies in the past, but never quite like this. These Healthy Blender Brownies take it to the next level with all the ingredients easily being tossed into a blender and purred down into a smooth batter that you then bake and enjoy. Yep. That’s it. No bowl required for this one. Just a blender (or food processor) and the baking dish.
I used quick oats in mine, but I think regular old-fashioned oats would work just as well in these brownies. They bake up into a light brownie that’s just fudge enough for my liking without being overly wet or dense. I find that the more cakey brownies tend to be better for brownie sundaes anyway since they can soak up the ice cream goodness…
Read More5 Ingredient Tortellini & Vodka Sauce
It doesn’t get much more simple for dinner than this 5 Ingredient Tortellini & Vodka Sauce. That’s right, it’s just 5 ingredients and a few minutes of cooking until this meal in a bowl is ready to go for the family. You can easily swap some of the ingredients out to make this dinner into your own thing. Even changing the sauce would make the dish completely different from what I have here.
I went with a fully cooked chicken sausage that had Italian herbs and seasoning in it, but really you could go any which way with it as you wanted. Another good one would be a a sausage with feta cheese for a Greek twist or something with a spicy kick and a nod to something more Cajun…
Read More2 Ingredient Cookies
I didn’t think it could be done, but yes - cookies can be made with a mere two ingredients. These 2 Ingredient Cookies are super east to make, because it’s just two ingredients, and they’re great as a snack, or even for part of a breakfast or lunch. So what are the two ingredients? Oats and banana. The oats do need to be quick oats and the banana has to be overly ripe. Other than that? There’s nothing more to them!
There aren’t any tricks to these cookies. They do end up being vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free, low fat, and bunch of other things that make them into not only one easy cookie, but a healthy one too. I’ve been enjoying mine as part of my lunch with apple slices, peanut butter, and some other snacks treats…
