Plantain & Pepper Bake

I think I’m the worst millennial ever.  I just don’t get a lot of trends that we millennials are supposed to be all about.  I don’t follow the hip lingo and I’m def not up to date on the hottest celebs.  Ugh.  I hate that I just said celebs.

I’m also not super savvy at social media.  I know I should be because I’m a blogger, but sometimes it’s just too much and I can’t keep up.  I’ve decided to limit myself to just a few even if that means being behind the times or whatever horrible things will happen to those of us not on every single media platform. Plantain & Pepper Bake | Life Healthfully Lived Continue reading

Thai Cauliflower Crumbles

Ah, the humble cauliflower.  Back at it again to make life awesome.  Seriously, who would think that a cauliflower could do so many things?  Not I, my friends.  Not I.

Anywho, I wasn’t going to share this recipe in its own post because it’s a part of Friday’s recipe.  But after I made it and tried it I decided it was good enough.

Iced Lemon-Lime Green Tea

I think maybe the second time I met Adam’s mom, it was during the summer.  We had just gotten out of classes for summer break and I was going to spend a week with him and his mom in his hometown of Paris.  Illinois.  Not France.  Just to clear that up real quick. Iced Lemon-Lime Green Tea | Life Healthfully Lived Continue reading

Hazelnut Cocoa Crunch Cereal

Cereal has always been my go-to meal/snack/food.  As a kid, I could (and did) eat bowls and bowls of the stuff.  In college, cereal was always there for a quick dinner or late-night snack.  Unfortunately, most cereal out there is a not the best for you.  Sure there are a few good options, but the tend to be expensive.  And let’s face it, who wants to eat super healthy cereal when there are things like Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Reese’s Puffs out there?

So, for a long time, I’ve given up eating cereal.  I’ll have one of my granola recipes every once in a while, but they aren’t a regular occurrence.  Granola is delicious, but it isn’t the same as cereal ya know?

Then I decided to make sweet roasted chickpeas and everything changed. Hazelnut Cocoa Crunch | Life Healthfully Lived Continue reading

Balsamic Strawberry Sauce

You know how there are just some things that go together?  Like combinations that are proven to be an amazing flavor profile or whatever fancy phrase professional food people (aka Chefs) use?  Yeah, strawberries and balsamic vinegar are one of those pairings.

And I very much dislike it.

“Um…. Excuse me, Katie?  What about your recipe today…?”  Just hold on let me finish my thought!

I very much dislike it, until I made this sauce. Balsamic Strawberry Sauce | Life Healthfully Lived Continue reading
