Okay, so you all know I’m kind of in love with cupcakes. I love baking them…and I love eating them. Another favorite of mine? Doughnuts. Granted, they aren’t exactly the healthiest option out there, so I try to enjoy them sparingly. However, something about making a cupcake into a doughnut just ...

Healthy Cranberry Almond Granola
This morning while on the treadmill (doing this intense workout) I started to feel inspired to do a little damage in the kitchen. I wasn’t quite sure what damage I was was going to do, but I decided it had to have these three things: something I’ve never tried making before something I could ...
