Spring is in the air and when spring comes, all I want is citrus. I’ve always loved lemon, manly lemon water, but lately I have been head over heels with lemon desserts! I adore the tanginess that comes from lemon and keep going back for more. Recently, I made box of Trader Joe’s Lemon Bars, […] Read more…

Pad thai isn’t as difficult as it seems- I promise! There are a lot of ingredients, however the process of making pad thai from start to finish is only about 30 minutes! YOU CAN DO IT! And it will be worth all those little bowls and many ingredients- I promise. When I knew I wanted […] Read more…

Coconut Carrot Muffins (GF)
Muffins! I adore a good muffin. If you know me well, you know one of my weaknesses is specifically a pistachio muffin from the local grocery store that is nearly 500 calories for the whole thing. I use to be really BAD and get one almost every time I went to the store which is […] Read more…
Coconut Almond Granola

Oven-Baked Taquitos
Here’s my oven-baked taquitos for you all! Anyone else a huge fan of Mexican food?
