Cinnamon Peach Pie Layered Yogurt Parfait

by 4 Comments

I went to the farmer’s market today to grab some fresh summer produce.  To my surprise, the peaches were on sale and just beautiful looking!  I had to get them, and quickly came up with this awesome and easy recipe!  This is so EASY and taste exactly like a peach pie or peach crumble (the healthified version of course)!  It takes a whopping 2 1/2 minutes to make and so filling it will keep you full for a while.  Not to mention, ITS DELISH!!

Creamy Microwaved Coconut Breakfast Rice Pudding

by 2 Comments

I was trying to come up with another interesting breakfast for today. I forced myself to stay away from the oatmeal in order to “think outside of the box,” and that I did. I mean, who doesn’t love rice pudding? Especially for breakfast, and healthy! Oh man I’m in for sure. This rice pudding is so incredibly easy, not to mention so good for you. It fills you up a lot, plus you get loads of nutrients, and the coconut milk makes it extra creamy, so there is no reason to add cream or butter! Naturally sweet with the raisins, this breakfast is perfect for a quick-fix, for your time and tastebuds!

Fast Fix Breakfast: Microwave Pineapple English Muffin

by 7 Comments

I was feeling very tropical today, ya know, like beachy, except I’m not at the beach right now, which isn’t the point. But, I had loads of fresh pineapple in the fridge, which got me in the tropical mood in the first place, so I thought “lets make something with this pineapple.” So I did, and it was fricken delicious, a Pineapple English Muffin, microwaved. It can’t get any easier than this, or tastier. This baby is as clean as possible, not to mention loaded with nutrients! Perfect for a rushed morning, this muffin will make you think you are at the beach(but only for a moment).
