The Best Banana Bread
This banana bread only tastes like it's sinful, but it's actually really good for you with 100% whole wheat flour and chunky bits of banana.

Dress to Impress Salad
This salad has gotten a lot of press from my friends and family. From the sweet and tangy balsamic dressing to the combination of ingredients, I've made this salad a staple at my table every time I invite people over for dinner. I make it just for me all the time, too.  

True Blueberry Syrup
Everyone knows I love my whole grain waffles. This morning I woke up a little earlier than usual and felt like making myself something special to start the week. This all-natural recipe is super simple -- store leftovers in the fridge and enjoy this yummy breakfast for days to come.

Chick'sPeas Rice Bowl
Just follow the recipe for Chick'sPeas using curry powder and coriander for the spices. Top over brown rice, add diced tomato, fresh oregano or cilantro, a drizzle of olive oil, and dinner is served. Save time by toasting the seasoned chickpeas on a nonstick pan over medium-high heat.

This is one of the easiest and most delicious dinners you can make. Follow this recipe for juicy, flavorful, perfect chicken every time. Your guests will be extremely impressed -- mine were!

D.I.Y. Take Out: Spicy Crispy Beef
You can make this yourself in less time than it would take to have it delivered. Plus, less fat, less sodium, less sugar and no weird additives.

Marble-ous Blueberry Muffins
For a second I thought I may have overdone it with the blueberries but after tasting these, and looking at them, I was very satisfied with the outcome. Can't wait to pull a "recipe remix" using chopped strawberries or bananas.

Meatless Monday Salad
Fresh baby spinach, 1/2 cup garbanzo beans, diced red bell pepper, sliced black olives, toasted whole grain pita bread and lemon oregano dressing (the juice of 1/2 lemon, 1/2 tbsp olive oil, dash of agave or honey, fresh or dried oregano and salt + pepper.) 

BAM! Pasta
Why BAM? Because I felt like Emeril when I opened a bottle of wine and poured some in the pan. This fancy dinner is ready in less than 15 minutes and you don't have to be a superstar chef to put it together.

Loaded Baked Potato
It's a lot more fun to pig out when you're doing no harm. This recipe is fast, easy and low fat, although you'd never know it if you weren't the one making it. If it's your new year's resolution to eat healthier, make this!
