I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’m not a very good baker. Baking really pushes me out of my comfort zone as it doesn’t really allow for room to “wing it”…and I’m definitely a “wing it” kind of person in the kitch. Most often, if I try to wing it with baking I…
Blender Banana Buster Bar Parfaits
We’ve had some amazing weather over these past couple of weeks here in YEG and I’m diggin’ it big time. On the hot days I’m getting out and about with Hemsley so we can enjoy the sunshine together and luckily she’s a really great traveller (so far!), so heading to the pool, park, or going for…
Protein-Packed Gluten Free Banana Muffins
Hello… yummy Protein-Packed Gluten Free Banana Muffins! Generally speaking, most muffins you’ll find at the grocery store, at any fast-food establishment, or even a local bakery (with some exceptions) are just as nutritionally beneficial as a donut. They are full of saturated fats (not the good kinds of saturated fat either), or even trans fats, they are loaded with…
Healthy Protein-Packed Gluten Free Banana Bread
This post was originally published in July 2013 and has been updated and rephotographed for accuracy, relevancy, and quality! Do you ever crave banana bread?

Creamy Watermelon Banana Buckwheat Smoothie

Maca Almond Banana Chocolate Chip Waffles // Grain & Dairy Free
I would love to say that I’m always sticking to my plan for the blog, but often I end up creating something spur of the moment and frankly, that really seems to be the time when the most magic happens! Not to say I don’t like having a blog plan – I do try to stick…
Easy Tropical Smoothie Bowl
Sometimes… actually, a lot of the time, wonderful creations happen in the spur of the moment! That’s how this smoothie bowl came about. I was preparing my usual morning smoothie, using frozen fruit (which varies by the week), ground flaxseed, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, omega oil, and a touch of stevia. The usual, nothing special, but…
10-Minute // Banana Apricot Coconut Cream Crumble
Ever since a BC Trip we took a few years ago I’ve had an intense love for apricots. Of course, British Columbia apricots are some of the best, and luckily we can get them here in Alberta when they are brought into the stores or when SPUD is carrying them! I had bought a nice…
