Sweet and savory crepes.

Sunday, July 11th, 2010

These were actually super easy and tasted great. I LOVE crepes, my favorite being savory so these cheesy veggie crepes were perfect. I ended up making a sweet version for little Z in case she wasn’t up for stinky cheese crepes first thing in the morning. She loved them and asked where I got the pita bread from? When J got home from yoga a few minutes after I snapped the photos she ate em up and loved em too. She of course loved the sweet ones best. Those I just used the same crepes and filled them with plain organic yogurt, fresh organic strawberries and a little powdered sugar inside and on top. These crepes took no time at all and were perfect whatever you decide to fill them with. Eat up!

Homemade blueberry pancakes.

Saturday, June 12th, 2010

Little Z asked for blueberry pancakes this morning and blueberry pancakes she received. Pancakes from scratch are quick and easy and require just a few basic ingredients that most of us have around the house. This recipe made super fluffy ones that were perfect for those fatty blueberries. Add some fresh strawberries and more blueberries on the side and we have ourselves a breakfast made for a princess and her servant (wink).

Banana crumb (mini) muffins.

Sunday, May 23rd, 2010

I’ve made these before and I’ll make them again. Theses are top notch homemade banana crumb muffins with an emphasis on the CRUMB! Love that stuff. Crunchy sugary goodness atop of a “somewhat” healthy moist cake, YES! I said I’ve made these before and the funny thing about that is both times I had to pull the bananas out of the trash because about 10 minutes before I made the muffins J thought to herself, oh these bananas are all black (we just got back from the store with brand new fresh ones) toss em. Not knowing that I had been eying those last three super ripe nanas for the past couple days. So just like the last time I yelled out “Why on earth would you throw out those perfectly good bananas!?!”. So I snagged them out of the trashcan outside (they were on the very top) and proceeded to blend them up to show how lovely those trashed bananas became blended into a wonderfully smelling banana puree. Now Z has been sick the past few days and when I made her smell the wonderful banana puree she proceeded to explain to me how “you know when your sick and things that smell good normally now make you want to puke when you smell them…”. Not good, but the muffins came out perfect, J’s words not mine. Z had no problem with the cooked muffins, and we all lived happily every after. The end.
