I think these Chocolate Stuffed Blondies might just be the best sweet I’ve ever made. They are melt in your mouth good. The best part, they are made with all real ingredients. Thomas and I paired them with ice cream one night and it was […]
I feel like people probably think I’m crazy with all these weird dessert combos I make. But I promise these chickpea blondies are too die for. You technically don’t even have to cook these if you’re in the mood for raw cookie dough. Grab some […]
Sweet potato brownies, who would’ve thought? I love experimenting with veggies in my desserts. They actually go together so well. Chocolate is such a strong flavor you never even taste the veggies. “They’re so dense and rich,” Thomas said, after shoving the second one into his mouth. Last night we warmed one up with a little bit of ice cream. Talk about a perfect brownie Sunday.
They’re a hit guys, I really hope you give them a try.

**I cooked my sweet potato right before making these brownies. You can absolutely use canned organic sweet potato puree.
***Stored mine in an air-tight container in the fridge. They are even delicious cold.
I know I’ve said this before, but I think these might be my best muffins yet. These Triple Chocolate Avocado muffins are to die for. They are so moist and rich. I’m thinking about making some chocolate frosting for them for the Superbowl game tonight, […]
Cranberry Lemon Bliss Balls has a nice ring to it, right? I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again I love making “balls.” You can pack so many awesome nutrients into one little dessert or snack. These specific ones aren’t really protein based, but […]
My future mother-in-law is an absolute gem. She’s the reason these peanut butter oat balls were possible. I mean I’m sure I could’ve made them without the food processor that she bought me, but it made all the difference. I’ve been wanting a food processor for so long now, but since Thomas and I are trying to save for our wedding it wasn’t in the budget.
I’m so grateful to have her in my life. She understands my love for cooking, baking, and creating new healthy food. I really wanted to test out the food processor so I threw a bunch of ingredients in and hoped for the best. These peanut butter oat balls taste like a healthy reese’s cup. They are absolutely amazing and easy to make.

These are the best snacks on the go. I love making different variations of these protein/energy balls.
These Paleo Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins are definitely a keeper. I’ve been on a muffin kick the last couple of weeks because I bought a muffin tray. They are the perfect sweet to have after dinner or even as your breakfast is you so desire. […]
Everyone loves a classic chocolate chip cookie, but one of my all time favorites has always been a thumbprint cookie. My Nanny used to love these cookies so I decided to make a healthier version in her honor. These paleo thumbprint cookies are super delicious, […]
So remember when I said I was obsessed with dark chocolate? Well here I go again. Dark chocolate cups are my go-to. But it was time for something other than banana and almond butter.
I found this recipe for roasted blueberry & almond butter dark chocolate cups. They are to die for. You might as well be eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich wrapped in chocolate.
Thomas was not sure how he felt about me roasting the blueberries first, but it is an absolute game changer.
Ingredients-
Instructions-
Preheat the oven to 350°F
In a bowl, combine the blueberries, honey and lemon juice. Place in a layer on an oven-tray and roast for 7-10 minutes.
Let cool at room temperature.
While the blueberries are roasting, melt the chocolate on the stove with about a tablespoon of coconut oil. When the chocolate is melted, place a tablespoon of it into a cupcake liner. Repeat with the rest of the liners and place in the freezer to solidify for 15-30 minutes.
Add some cinnamon into your almond butter.
When the chocolate has solidified, place a teaspoon of almond butter in each and top with a tablespoon of roasted blueberries. Top with a tablespoon of melted chocolate. Place the cups in the freezer for 30 minutes or until solidified.
Keep in the fridge or freezer. Enjoy!
So I’ve always been a savory person until about a year ago. Dessert was never really my thing. I know that sounds crazy, but it’s true! Now I can’t go to bed at night without something sweet. I blame this on my Nanny (grandmother). She […]
