Piña Colada Veggie Smoothie

  A sweet and creamy tropical morning  smoothie that reminds me of our honeymoon on the beach! Unlike the Jamaican beverages, this version is packed with vitamins, probiotics and is high in protein,  so I feel really good about giving it to my family! 

Morning Glory (“Kitchen Sink”) Muffins

  A muffin that taste like cake, is chock full of healthy ingredients, and keeps me full for hours? Now that’s my kind of breakfast on-the-go! I love that it can be tailored to anyone’s preference, adding or substituting ingredients as you like.  Carrots, apples, raisins, spices, coconut, dates, orange zest… the options are endless! 

Carrot & Apple Cupcakes

I wanted to tweak an old standby by turning a traditional carrot cake into kid-friendly cupcakes but with the "adult" cream cheese frosting. I reduced the amount of sugar needed by adding shredded Fuji apples to the mix and loads of fragrant spices. Whipped cream was whipped with cinnamon and folded into the classic, dense cream cheese version creating a light, dreamy texture.
