Blueberry Quinoa Muffins

Though I (obviously) cook a lot, there is nothing that makes me NOT want to cook more than hearing one of the boys say “Mom, I’m hungry!” It’s not that I don’t want to cook for them, mind you.  It’s just that  high pressure “Is it done yet?” cooking isn’t my idea of fun. Since [...]

Java Quinoa Smoothie

I’ve always liked smoothies, but over the last 9 months I’ve grown to love them for their simplicity. They are the perfect meal that keeps me away from processed and packaged foods. Like a lot of you, I am a huge fan of green smoothies that make the rest of my family run for cover. [...]

Quinoa, Spinach & Sausage Breakfast Casserole

Thumbnail image for Quinoa, Spinach & Sausage Breakfast Casserole

Once upon a time, casseroles weren’t nearly as interesting to me as they are now. Not that I didn’t like them – because who doesn’t love a good casserole? I just didn’t realize that making foods ahead of time and having a stocked freezer could be so…life changing. The truth is that while I’d love [...]

Before we talk quinoa today, I just wanted to say THANKS! So many of you emailed, left comments on the site and tweeted to give me words of encouragement after my last post.  (If you missed it, I talked about how scared I am about the baby and how overwhelmed I’m feeling.) I needed reassurance [...]

Apple Quinoa Morning Start

Pregnancy does weird things to you. You moms out there know what I mean. All of a sudden what you usually eat and what you crave become can become two entirely different things. Apparently in my case it makes me more normal. Five months ago, you wouldn’t have caught me eating oatmeal or any type [...]

I can’t decide if I’m excited or stressed out. My parents are coming to visit in exactly a week! That shouldn’t be such a big deal should it? Well, the things is that they haven’t traveled to visit me since my 6 1/2 year old turned three and we surprised him at Disney World. (I [...]

How was your Thanksgiving? Mine was very relaxing.  It was just hubby, the boys and I this year and to be honest, I didn’t even cook. I made something the day ahead for lunch and instead we spent the day hanging out by the pool, reading and just enjoying being together.  I caught up on [...]

As a mom, there are a few things I always like to have on hand. A few examples are frozen (homemade) pizza dough, organic apples and Cliff Bars. Another thing I always like to have – either fresh or in the freezer – is these English Muffins. Sadly, these babies seem to go just about [...]

Quinoa Granola

When I was growing up, I loved granola. So much so, that when given the chance to pick any breakfast cereal I wanted, my choice was almost always granola.  (No Frosted Flakes for me!) This continued for years until someone informed me during high school that granola was extremely high fat, high calorie and that [...]

Chocolate Chip Banana Quinoa Bread

This recipe is one that I never intended to share with you, but it was so good that I just can’t resist. It started with what was supposed to be a learning experience for me – cooking from my new cookbook, the The Allergy-Free Cook Bakes Bread. Of course, I’m not one to cook straight [...]

Being a work at home, homeschooling mom who is in the middle of writing a book means that my days are VERY busy.  Even in the summer, every day starts with drawing a line down the center of my notebook so that I can make my two columned to do list. Yes, two columns.  Because [...]

Quinoa Granola

There was a lot of cereal around my house when I was a kid. I have fond memories of waking up to a bowl of Special K covered in sugar and bananas. But when I was allowed to pick the cereal, my choice was always the same – granola! Now I know that probably puts [...]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Quinoa and Oats

Lately, I’ve had a few requests for easy quinoa breakfast recipes.  There is no doubt that quinoa is a great way to start your day, but I must confess that I’m not much for a traditional breakfast. In fact, I’m much more likely to have a salad with balsamic vinegar for breakfast than I am [...]
