I’ve been on the hunt for simple, versatile recipes using pantry staples and I have found a great one! I came across this recipe from the Tightwad Gazette and I knew I had to give them a go. I love how this recipe doesn’t give you the exact ingredients, instead it tells you what ratio you should use for each type ingredient so that you can use whatever you have on hand and really make them your own.
The cult favorite Trader Joe’s Everything But the Bagel Sesame Seasoning has become a staple in my house this past year and I have developed a bit of an obsession. I love a Trader Joe’s fan favorite and this seasoning definitely has a following. I find the complex flavors in this little shaker to be the perfect complement to items that might be a bit bland on their own. For example, it is delicious on eggs, avocado toast, grilled chicken, sprinkled on salads and my new favorite, Everything But the Bagel Sesame Seasoned Kale Chips.
Salted Maple Coconut Chips…a delight, a marvel and probably one of the easiest recipes I have ever posted. I started writing this blog post and was having trouble coming up with what the title should be – should I call it candy, bark, a crisp? I wasn’t sure, but what I did know is regardless of what I called it, the recipe is definitely worth sharing.
The holidays are over and I, like many, have felt the need to stop indulging – all the time at least. I feel that moderation and a healthy lifestyle are key, however I went wild this holiday season gorging on spritz cookies, sugar cookies, haystacks, fudge, caramel corn – you name the cookie/candy and chances are I took a bite. Same goes for cheese – brie, cambozola, gouda…yum! I enjoyed every moment, but I feel gross and my jeans are snug. In an effort to save money and not have to purchase new pants I am breaking out some of my favorite recipes to curb my appetite. Which leads me to this little gem I wanted to share, Frozen Yogurt Bark, a favorite treat.
