But a recipe doesn't have to be difficult or time consuming to be delicious and look great. Case in point: Challah French toast stuffed with cream cheese and jam and topped with berries. Regular French toast is a universal favorite, but with just a little extra effort, you can make it exceptional. Even better, this breakfast couldn't be easier to ...

I’m back from the Quaker Oats Living Proof blogger event. It was wonderful! I met some terrific bloggers, and learned an incredible amount about heart health, which I hope to share soon. One of the highlights was meeting Stephanie Izard,...

During tough economic times, many of us are foregoing trips to our favorite coffee shops and lugging Thermos bottles of java from home. However, part of my winter and holiday season tradition is treating myself to pumpkin lattes around Halloween...

Sunday mornings are special at my house.

I think I've ...

Filed under: Breakfast, Dessert, Recipes I'm not sure if these would be considered to be something you eat for breakfast or a snack. I'm going to go with both. These Jam Sandwich Cookies come from Martha Stewart's Everyday Food. You make them with Martha's ''Everyday Baking Mix'' (I link to that recipe after the jump), and you can use this mix ...

Filed under: Breakfast, Snacks, Nuts/seeds, Recipes, Fruit This is a breakfast, and you can probably guess from the name that it's not the most healthy breakfast you could have. But you know what? It's really not as bad as it sounds. I mean, they have peanut butter, honey, and granola in them. This recipe for Crunchy Monkey Peanut Butter Banana ...

Filed under: Breakfast, Snacks, Recipes, On the Blogs I'm not sure what makes these cookies something you have for breakfast. They do have dried fruit (cranberries, apricots, cherries, raisins) and nuts in them, which is great, but there are probably healthier options for you. But hey, any breakfast that includes fruit and nuts and oats is a ...
