3.81 21 Published Nov 15, 2017, Updated May 20, 2024 What can I say, I’m a creature of habit and when I find something I like I stick with it. That said, almost every overnight oats recipe I have here on EBF uses milk or yogurt as the liquid and I thought it’d be fun to switch things up a bit with a citrus version using orange juice. I don’t know why I didn’t think to do this sooner because the orange vanilla flavor combo is so delicious and perfect for winter when we can all use an extra boost of vitamin C....

I am so in love with this blueberry bread. I love it for breakfast, I love it for snack, I love it for dessert. I love the loads of blueberries throughout.

5 2 Published Aug 12, 2023, Updated Jul 30, 2024 When you think of a protein-packed breakfast you probably immediately think about eggs and some type of meat. While those are both great ways to get your protein in, there are so many other high-protein options… from Greek yogurt and cottage cheese to protein powder and tofu and tempeh. Why is Protein Important? If you’ve been reading the blog for a while you know how much I stress the importance of protein!...

26 Published Mar 01, 2019, Updated Aug 04, 2021 These meals do call for a tiny bit of advance prep. If you remember to plan ahead, you can take the meal out of the freezer 24 hours in advance and put it in your fridge to thaw. If you don’t remember to do this, it’s okay – just fill a large pot or bowl with warm water and let the meal defrost in there....

I love the fun, relaxed attitude during the summer, where you lose track of what day and time it is, but it definitely messes with our meal schedules. My kids are usually on the fend-for-yourself lunch plan and I am constantly forgetting to cook dinner because it’s so bright and hot out at dinner time, and my kids usually aren’t home because they’re off with friends, that lately I’ve been ALL about the quick and easy meals....

When I am talking about simplicity and ease of making dishes, my mind always takes me to those early days of my married life when as a very young Air Force wife I used to struggle even to make a good cup of chai let alone breakfast. This omelette is one of few breakfasts my husband knew how to make, and relentlessly kept teaching me how to make a perfect Omelette....

Breakfast for dessert, or dessert for breakfast. That is the question. As someone who has a slight obsession for both, that’s a dilemma I’m familiar with. Growing up, I did the breakfast for dinner thing for a long time. Waffles and pancakes only ever appeared on our dinner menu because in the food culture that I grew up in, we routinely ate rice for breakfast. Or to be more accurate, waffles and pancakes were considered “special occasion food” when I was growing up....

I use a classic base of tangy buttermilk and mayo. While I use reduced-calorie mayo in a lot of my cooking, I don’t recommend it here. It definitely changes the flavor and it’s simply not as good. You can adjust the amount of buttermilk you use to get the consistency just how you like it (thinner, thicker, etc.) Now for the flavors. This recipe has garlic powder, onion powder, dry mustard, seasoned salt, black pepper and dill....
