There's not much I like about cold and rainy days. I'd much rather be playing outside in sunshine and fresh air. However, rainy days do have some perks. For example, catching up on programs stored on your PVR, staying in your PJ's and catching up on much needed sleep. And of course, my favourite: hanging out in the kitchen to do some baking or cooking. On this particular rainy day, I found myself staring at three overripe bananas. Man, it doesn't take long for them to brown, does it? Anyway, I decided to make muffins, but couldn't decide on which kind. In the end, I opted for two different kinds: Strawberry-Banana, and Chocolate-Banana. Click the title of this post or the "read more" link to see them come together. |

This is a great breakfast because it's got sweetness from the fresh fruit, protein from the yogurt, and healthy fats from the walnuts. Although it's really light-tasting, it will keep me full until lunch. Best of all, the whole thing took about 3 minutes to assemble. Great for a busy morning!
Enjoy!
I've been loving my switch to real food for so many reasons. But as Halloween began to roll around, I gave myself permission to forgo my real, whole, natural food for the sake of indulging in.....well....junk. After all, Halloween only comes around once a year, right? And it's tradition so....I told myself, "All bets are off."

But sometimes, unfortunately, it’s a real challenge to try to carve out time in those busy schedules for something as important and basic as self-care. That’s why I love the crock pot so much! It’s this genious little slow-cooker that allows busy teachers like me to come home after a long day at work and still manage to eat a satisfying, and healthy meal like this Slow Cooker Chicken with Fall Vegetables.

I started this blog after deciding to give up on fad diets, listening to “experts,” counting calories,
measuring, logging, depriving, bingeing, and feeling guilty. All of that only served to make me
bigger, unhealthier, and unhappy. I finally decided to keep it simple: listen to my
own body and eat real food. I
started cooking with ingredients as close to nature as possible and one year later I
feel healthier and happier. I love food and I love cooking it. This blog is an ongoing collection of my new
and favorite recipes. Some, I’ve made
up, but most are inspired by what I see online. Feel free to browse, follow, and leave a
comment! Thanks for reading! Follow Me on Pinterest!
