Cottage Cheese Chocolate Mousse

High-protein cottage cheese chocolate mousse

I know cottage cheese is in everything right now, but I've love it for years so I'm happy to let it have its moment! I love a bowl of cottage cheese with berries and a drizzle of honey, or a savory bowl with tomatoes, cucumbers, avocado, and everything but the bagel seasoning. But what's really genius about cottage cheese is blending it for a way to get extra protein and creaminess into a recipe.

Almond Cake with Whipped Mascarpone

Almond Cake || Gluten-free and full of almond flavor!

A little goes a long way, but in the case of this almond cake we are really maximizing the almond flavor with both almond extract and almond flour. With a whipped mascarpone frosting, this cake is the perfect cake for any occasion especially because it's gluten-free. This recipe uses ... continue reading...

Carrot Cake Muffins

Carrot Cake Muffins

One of my favorite things to have for breakfast the morning after Easter is a slice of carrot cake with a cup of coffee. I know, I know, it's not at all a healthy breakfast option, but as a once-a-year treat I do love it! But if I want to enjoy carrot cake for breakfast more than once a year, I make these healthy carrot cake muffins. They're naturally sweetened with honey or maple syrup, applesauce, and coconut sugar and I put in some quick cooking oats for fiber. Filled with lots of warm spices ... continue reading...

Last week I spent a few days visiting my best frie Last week I spent a few days visiting my best friend in sunny Arizona seeing her new home and while I miss her every day it brought me so much joy to see how happy she is and how her whole family is thriving! @teeter_totter_mom and I had the best time chatting nonstop for three days as we hiked and ran and of course ate McDonalds. We laughed and explored and soaked up every minute together and it was time that was so good for my soul. “There’s a version of you that only exists when you’re with your best friend. The way you can laugh without holding back, and be yourself without explaining. The comfort of being fully yourself, unfiltered, unedited, unafraid.” 💛 I can’t wait for my next visit ☀️🌵

Happy 11th birthday Lleyton Edward!! Gosh, how has Happy 11th birthday Lleyton Edward!! Gosh, how has it been 11 years? You are growing into such a kind, thoughtful, intelligent young man. You love soccer, golf, and basketball. You love to read and build Legos. You’re a great student and super creative and can frequently be found drawing at the kitchen table. Lately you’re very into cars and can discuss all their makes and models. You started guitar lessons this past summer and I love hearing you practice. I love seeing your interests as you get older and watch you lean into the things that make you YOU. You’re an excellent big brother and are always looking out for your siblings and will happily stop what you’re doing to play cars with Killian, built an elaborate train track setup, or read him his bedtime story. 

There is just something about your oldest. We’ve been on this journey together for 11 years since you made us parents in the middle of the night. We’ve grown and learned together since day one and seeing the kind, smart, empathetic, independent, wonderful young man you are now is one of my greatest joys. Happy birthday bug. 💙

Song playing in the background is Lleyton’s favorite!
