I’m so psyched to share this recipe with you guys today, because this is one of our absolute favorite leftovers recipes. It’s such a phenomenal way to use up your Thanksgiving leftovers (or even Christmas leftovers) in a completely transformed and delicious way. Thanksgiving leftovers We don’t usually prepare a full turkey for Thanksgiving, it’s typically a slow cooked turkey breast or oven roasted turkey breast, or even a slow roasted turkey roll or sous vide turkey roll for something a little more fancy....

5 16 Published Feb 09, 2024, Updated Nov 11, 2024 These cookies aren’t your typical EBF dessert… they’re made with all-purpose flour, butter, brown sugar and white sugar. Sometimes ya girl just needs a real deal cookie, am I right? These cookies took a ton of testing. I think we tested over 20 batches before landing on the recipe I’m sharing today. I wanted them to be PERFECT before sharing with you and now they truly are....

5 10 Published Jun 03, 2024, Updated Jul 12, 2024 Recently I had an Instagram follower (Hi Audra!) request a copycat recipe for MUSH overnight oats and if you know me, you know that I love creating copycat recipes… whether it’s for store-bought foods (or restaurant meals) that I want to make at home or making classic recipes healthier. I’m all about a good copycat recipe! To start, I decided to work on the MUSH vanilla bean flavor!...

Despite what you may have heard, tarts do not always have to be complicated. For this Vegan Chocolate Tart recipe, we’re swapping the complicated pâte sucrée (sweet tart crust) for a 2-ingredient Oreo cookie crust and the pastry cream for a 3-ingredient vegan chocolate ganache filling. It’s a deceptively easy and crowd-pleasing dessert! You don’t even need to turn your oven on to make this dreamy chocolate treat. All you need to do is let the no-bake chocolate tart set in the fridge for a few hours before it’s time to slice....

The traditional version of this cake is soaked in a mixture of 3 milks and topped with whipped cream, so creating a vegan version was quite the project! This vegan tres leches cake ranks as one of the best desserts I’ve ever made! Similar to my vegan tiramisu, it took me quite a while to get it just right and worthy of sharing. Desserts that rely so heavily on dairy products can be hard to replicate....

Veggie burgers are kinda my thing. I adore them. I eat them ALL the time for lunch and love to make them for dinner, too. Bring on the veggie burgers! Plus, there are endless options of flavors and combinations and toppings. So many possibilities, so little time. I’ll just have to find a way to get more veggie burgers in my life… These here are stuffed full of veggies. Making them extra super healthy veggie burgers....

Keeping a bag of frozen green peas on hand is one of my secrets to ensure I can always add a vegetable to our family dinners, even if I don’t have anything fresh. They store so well in the freezer and take just a minute or two to defrost under some cold running water in a colander in the sink. Plus, peas are super versatile and can be added to so many dishes....

This recipe originally appeared on Real Housemoms, where I am a contributor. We are just back from a family vacation to Montana and we had such a great trip! It is an amazingly beautiful state and we were lucky to have perfect weather the whole time. We visited Glacier National Park, did lots of hiking, had tons of pool time with the kids and their cousins, and even did a bit of boating and fishing while we were there....

Ingredient and Equipment Frozen açaí Puree – Look for this in the frozen section of your grocery store (see photo below.) It’s usually found by the frozen fruit. Sambazon and Pitaya are two common brands I see in my stores and it’s a bag with little packets of frozen puree inside. Note that you can generally purchase it sweetened and unsweetened and often you have to look at the ingredient label to verify which one it is....

Anyone else feel like the Air Fryer was made just for them? Here I was, a mostly healthy eating adult, who just couldn’t do fried foods. The grease, the heaviness, the oil and splatters if you’re making it at home, none of it was appealing. So I just opted out. But of course, we all have favorites that are best fried with that crunchy texture. And so when the Air Fryer hit the shelves and was all the rage, I jumped right in....

5 0 Published Oct 09, 2023, Updated Nov 05, 2024 And it’s funny because no one really knows why these fluffy fruit dishes are called salads, but perhaps it’s because they are cold dishes made by combining different ingredients and there’s usually a creamy dressing involved! The version of the recipe I’m sharing today is inspired by my husband’s family recipe, the one that’s on our Thanksgiving table every year....

This old fashioned homemade banana cake gets an upgrade with an ever more flavorful twist on my classic cream cheese frosting recipe. Plus, it’s so easy to make too. If you’re one of those delightful people who buys bananas just to make banana bread or banana cake, then you’re in the right place, with the right company! 🙂 I do that all the time too. And this banana cake is by far the best thing you can bake with your overripe bananas....

There’s a lot to love about blueberries in this recipe–they don’t completely freeze, so you get little bites of frozen blueberry, similar in texture to frozen grapes, and it’s delish. Also, the color is beautiful and blueberries just pack a lot of flavor punch and they hold their own very nicely in this recipe. I actually think it’s a little misleading to call this “Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream.” I think non-cheesecake fans will be scared away and die-hard cheesecake-in-my-ice-cream fans may be disappointed....

This recipe is specifically for boneless, skinless thighs. Don’t ask me about substitutions, just use the thighs. They are specifically suited for this method of cooking, and the meat adds both flavor and body for the sauce. Most packs of boneless, skinless thighs are between 1.5 and 2 lbs. Shoot for something a little over 1.5 at least, since you’ll trim a little off. I shoot for something between 1....

Rice krispie treats made with homemade marshmallows, so you can make them just the way you like! I’ll be honest, I never enjoyed rice krispie treats, growing up. BUT, that all changed when I made rice krispie treats with homemade marshmallows! Turns out, my aversion to store-bought marshmallows was the one thing that kept me from enjoying these delicious little treats. So if you’re like me, and don’t much care for store-bought marshmallows or rice krispie treats made with store-bought marshmallows, then this recipe is for YOU!...
