banana bread granola with hemp seeds
My obsession with banana bread has grown almost as bad as my obsession with cinnamon. I have made four banana breads in the past week, and currently have a loaf of Joy’s Oatmeal Banana Bread in the oven. #ihaveaproblem I decided that I didn’t just want to take in my banana bread by the slice […]

As much as I love smoothies, muesli, cereal and toast, Sunday mornings are the perfect time to really enjoy a hot breakfast. One of my favorite warm breakfast treats is french toast.

caprese breakfast tartines and zucchini fries
These caprese breakfast tartines speak for themselves: crunchy herb bread from the local bakery, slathered with homemade herb butter, fresh basil, juicy tomatoes, golden, bubbly melted cheese, and topped with a perfect sunny-side-down egg. I like to serve them with a side of perfectly crunchy, herb-y, Parmesan-y baked zucchini fries (one of the French-fries classier […]
