Salt and Vinegar Roasted Chickpeas

Crunchy, salty, and flavorful, these roasted chickpeas are great for healthy snacking, and are a particularly good choice for topping soups or salads.

Banana Split Oatmeal

There’s no need to feel guilty about eating dessert for breakfast with this healthy banana split oatmeal. It’s quick, it’s easy, and you have three different options on how to prepare it!

One-Pot Mac & Cheese for One

One pot. Ten minutes. Quicker, cheaper, more delicious, and just as easy as the boxed stuff.

Mac and cheese is one of the ultimate comfort foods and this recipe requires so little effort that you might just have to stop yourself from eating it for every meal. 🙂

Mini Gingerbread Cupcakes with Cinnamon Frosting

I love gingerbread and cinnamon at any time of year, but they are even more delightful in cooler weather.

These mini cupcakes are full of warm, cozy flavors– perfect for the last stretch of winter.

Pizza Dough Garlic Breadsticks

Breadsticks are pretty much perfect already, so the only way to improve them is to make them easy, foolproof, and ready in under 30 minutes.

Cinnamon Bun Granola

I have a confession: I don’t know what a responsible amount of cinnamon is.

I just love it so much and I love adding it to everything– even when it probably shouldn’t be there.  Granola is a great place for it, though, and this granola is packed with warm, yummy, cinnamon-y goodness.

Mushroom and Onion Quesadilla

You don’t need a million fancy ingredients and hours of prep time to make something delicious.

With only 6 ingredients, this is one of my favorite quick-and-easy lunches.

Chocolate Pretzel Granola Bars

This was supposed to be a different recipe.

I love it when my family requests something for me to make. I keep a list of recipe ideas I want to try out, but I can get into a little bit of a rut and stick to my own personal likes (pizza flavored everything! oats where they don’t belong! truly irresponsible amounts of peanut butter and/or chocolate!).  When I get an outside request, it can get me to try new things.

White Pizza Baked Oatmeal

If there is one thing that’s guaranteed, it is that I will eventually try to make everything I cook taste like pizza. And as much as I love red pizza, I think I might love white pizza even more.
