    Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

    Today I am going to share a very easy recipe for banana chocolate chip muffins.  This is based off of the recipe that my mom uses to make banana chocolate chip bread, but with a few modifications of my own, and also as muffins instead of bread.  It is delicious as a breakfast, served with eggs, or as a sweet snack, or dessert!  I am not a big fan of bananas when they are overly ripe, and this recipe is a great way to use those up.  I hope that you all will enjoy the recipe!

    Strawberry Breakfast Muffins

        Hi Everyone!  It is strawberry season here in Florida, so strawberries are in abundance!  I decided to make these strawberry breakfast muffins to take to work and they were a huge hit!  People were coming to my office asking for more all day even after they were gone.  I adapted this recipe from a blueberry muffin recipe that I like to use and I actually think that the strawberries tasted even better!  These muffins are super easy to make, and are just barely sweetened, so they are not unhealthy either.  I think they would be delicious served up with a scrambled egg for a nutritious balanced breakfast.   They…

    Easy Brownies on the Stove

    Hello everyone!  Today I am going to share with you a wonderfully easy recipe for scratch brownies, that is actually made on the stove.  I have used this recipe for a long time and it is always a huge hit.  Many people have asked me for the recipe and have also told me they are the best brownies they have ever had.  These brownies are just as easy to make as a box mix, but they are more delicious and healthier.  Additionally, you only have to clean 1 pot!  I line the baking dish with parchment paper, and the cleanup is a cinch! I hope that you all will give…

    Open a Pomegranate

    Since pomegranates are still in season it is a really great time to enjoy them!  This time of year most grocery stores carry them and they are easy to find.  I suspect that a lot of people don’t know how to open pomegranates and eat them easily, so they either avoid them because they are inconvenient to eat, or pay top dollar for arils (the pomegranate seeds) that are already removed.  I don’t know about you guys, but I used to be one of these people!! Then I found a pamphlet at a grocery store that explained how to open a pomegranate.  I tried it out myself and now, I…
