Pancakes are made once or twice a week in my house. My whole family is crazy for them and I am have even taught my kids how to cook their own. Many a morning I have to leave early for work, so I'll make pancake batter the night before and pull it out in the morning before I go. The kids know how ...
Whole Wheat Sweet Potato Muffins Recipe
I don't know if you cooked a little or a lot for Thanksgiving (or maybe not at all), but were you like me wishing even a little that everyone would eat a bit more slowly? I mean, that's a lot of cooking just to be inhaled in less than 30 minutes. I whispered to my husband during dinner, "please ...
whole grain mixed berry buckle recipe (gluten and dairy-free versions, too!)
I am so behind planning my Father's Day menu! I was just a lazy bones in Mexico last week and for some reason didn't really have Father's Day on the brain, but now here it is, coming up in 5 quick little days. I have my father coming into town this weekend which is an extra special treat. Most ...
whole grain and almond pulp pancakes recipe
I am kicking myself for all the almond pulp I have thrown away in my lifetime. It honestly makes me crazy to think of how much perfectly good raw, soaked, organic almond pulp I wasted because I didn't know it would be amazing in banana bread or pancakes, among other things. I make so much almond ...
whole grain strawberry scones recipe (gluten-free version, too!)
One of my guilty pleasures is a traditional English tea. We used to live within walking distance of the Penninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills which (in my opinion) had the best tea in the city. I used to take my girls on their birthdays for a special treat and I also remember celebrating my one of my ...
whole grain buttermilk waffles recipe (refined sugar-free, gluten-free adaptable)
I never posted my waffle recipe on my site because I really didn't know if most people owned a waffle maker. Plus, I don't want to nudge anyone to buy an expensive appliance that s/he may not get much use out of. Annnnnd, I had never found a good waffle iron that wasn't lined with Teflon. But if ...
Baked Cinnamon Cake Doughnuts Recipe (gluten-free adaptable!)
I love teaching people how to cook and I love working with food, but one business I don't see myself in is the restaurant business. That just seems like waaaaaay too much work! But if I did open a restaurant, I would have a little casual breakfast and lunch place called "He Said, She Said." The ...
homemade ranch dressing recipe (dairy-free and vegan-adaptable)
For all of you out there who were like me and just hoping for a good game last night, was that a disappointment or what?! We started counting how many times someone in the room said, "Are you kidding me?!" At least the commercials and the half-time show were entertaining and eats were tasty. We ...
Apple-Dipped Pancakes recipe
Huh??? What is an apple-dipped pancake? I know. It's really the silliest name, but I didn't want to call these beauties "apple pancakes" because that makes me think of something that these are not. These are better than just dropping a few pieces of diced apple into pancake batter or using apple ...
zucchini bread pancakes recipe
A few years ago, someone suggested I teach a class with a breakfast menu. At first I didn't think it was such a good idea because breakfast seems kind of easy, at least too easy to be taught in a cooking class. In our house the rotations is oatmeal or muesli, scrambled eggs, smoothies, yogurt and ...
