I’m still having trouble believing it’s September, and the incredibly summer-y hot and stormy weather we’ve been having lately isn’t helping things one bit. But somehow it is, and the days keep creeping by so I’m just going to roll with it. From this point on, it’s warm and comforting Fall food all day every day, people. Get pumped!

Peanut Butter and Jelly Chia Seed Pudding
So I’d like to introduce you to this here thing called chia seed pudding.
Well, chances are you’ve already heard of chia seed pudding. It’s been making rounds around the internet for a few years now. But like with all healthy food trends, I can be a little skeptical and a little late to the game. I’m always like, “IT CAN’T BE AS GOOD” and immediately dismiss said healthy food craze as a lame version of the real thing. But after baking up this incredible vegan zucchini bread earlier this summer, I decided I needed to start being a little more open-minded. (A little. I still draw the line at substituting spaghetti squash for pasta, though.)
Asparagus and Fingerling Potato Flatbread Pizza with Bacon and Blue Cheese Crumbles
One of my favorite things about having a food blog is the constant inspiration and motivation to make seasonal, fresh veggie-licious food.
And add bacon and cheese to it. In all seasons. Duh.
Whole Wheat Banana Muffins with Dark Chocolate and Toasted Pecans
Happy spring, everyone!!!
Just kidding. It’s 25 degrees out today with a snowstorm coming this week. Spring has NOT SPRUNG in Chicago.
I had planned to do a light, fresh, healthy recipe today to celebrate the official start of spring. But then I was like, you know what, screw it, I’m making some super-loaded banana muffins all jacked up with dark chocolate and toasted pecans. Because in this cruel hell in which it’s still sub-freezing and snowing in late March, bathing suit season just seems really, really far away. And banana muffins sound really, really good right now.
