When we say these are addicting, we mean it. The minute they come out of the oven, we have to hide the batch so that they are not devoured within minutes of being finished. Not only that, but they make your kitchen smell so incredibly good. And, of course, you […]

The Super Bowl. It is one of the most exciting foodie days of the year. You need to be prepared to watch hours of football, though, and that is where we come into the game. Snacks, you need a ton of them. And when we say a ton, we mean […]
Since Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, we figured we needed to share these decadent, fudgy chocolate cupcakes with you. Not only do they taste amazing and have an incredible texture, but they are a healthier alternative with better ingredients. We absolutely love serving them with a strawberry frosting […]
We are obsessed with pancakes if you couldn’t tell from our Insta feed, but when we don’t have as much time in the morning and still want pancakes this is are our go-to recipe because it is simple, filling, and healthy. It only has 6 main ingredients and is naturally […]
This was one of those recipes we threw together on the fly and ended up making over and over again because we could not get enough of them! Not only that, but they are super fun to roll out and make. Who could resist eating protein balls that look THIS […]
If there is one thing we have learned recently, it is that baked oats are never going to get old. This was one of those foods when we were younger that was not too appealing, but we have figured out the trick to make these baked oats so good you […]
We have and will always be huge suckers for thin mints around the holidays, but since we love holiday baking and making our own food we thought, why not make some healthier thin mints with a TWIST? And that is exactly what these are! They taste better than a thin […]
As soon as it turned from October to November, the Halloween excitement and craze was washed away (with the exception of pumpkin flavored food) and we replaced it with holiday music and cozy socks. We took our Pumpkin Crumble Bars to a new level! This has got to be our […]
Pumpkin lovers it is finally time! Fall could not have come sooner and we are so excited to share this awesome recipe for Pumpkin Crumble Bars with three layers of goodness. With school back in session, we find our stress levels have risen as we try to get back in […]
Here are two delicious snacks we developed to enjoy for back-to-school whether you are actually going back to school or are doing remote. Good always makes things better so we hope no matter what these will make you happy! When we were quarantined in the spring, cooking and eating good food made our days happy...we hope it does the same for you!
Quarantine has got us going absolutely CRAZY for these treats – we can’t tell you how many times we have made these! So we just had to share this delicacy that is healthy and (shhh, don’t tell anyone) that we ate a whole batch of in one day! I think […]
Coconut cake has always been one of our favorite sweet treats – but usually when we make it, we don’t want to use three sticks of butter and two cups of sugar. We also did not like how the cake was best the first day*. So, what was our solution? […]
We love getting food inspiration from our favorite sweet treats, for an almond joy bar was the inspiration for our healthy chocolate coconut bars. Our mom absolutely loves carrot cake and it is one of our favorites as well so we have taken inspiration from it and made carrot cake […]
We love Italian food and are always inspired by what we eat to recreate it at home, but since we are vegetarians we cannot eat meatballs. We know they are a staple of Italian cooking so we decided to make them vegan with a healthy twist and lots of […]
We love fun colored food and this beet gnocchi is our perfect fix especially since it is naturally pink! This gnocchi is perfect for Valentine’s Day (or really any other day!!) and instead of celebrating by exchanging chocolate or sweets with our family and friends, we thought that we should […]
2020 is here! That means a new year, new goals, and more food. We wanted to do a recap of our year for you and share our New Years resolutions. This year was crazy, what with moving and starting a new school. In 2019, the cooking world presented us with […]
One of our favorite things to experiment with in the baking world is banana bread – of course, we try and make this healthy, gluten free, sugar free, and more all at the same time. And although this may be difficult, we have perfected banana bread. So we asked ourselves: […]
This pie is so good and we love that it’s healthy so you know you can have 2 or more helpings! What makes it healthy? It’s free of any refined sugars and we use whole and nutritious ingredients. We use dates to sweeten this and it’s really good and perfectly sweet. […]
Hi all! We had a crazy couple of days this past week. While baking this delicious pumpkin pie that was both gf and healthy, our oven started smoking and almost caught on fire. The best part was – Emily was in the shower and had to quickly get out to […]
Adding to our fall collection – Healthy Apple Cider Donuts! The perfect blend of spices with the extra boost of apple from BOTH apple cider and apple sauce. These light and fluffy donuts get a coating of cinnamon sugar and melt in your mouth. It’s hard to stop eating them […]
Yes, it may be fall, but that doesn’t mean that everything needs to be pumpkin! We make these Brownie Bliss Balls all the time and love how versatile they are. Whether you roll them in cocoa or coconut or eat them plain, they melt in your mouth. The perfect snack […]
Hi everyone! This summer has seemed to fly by – we have had so much going on. We finished up our lacrosse in mid July and were sad to say goodbye to our New Jersey team. Oh yeah! We are moving! We finished packing up our house a week or […]
We find that one of the greatest things about burgers is that they are so versatile with what you can put on them. These Kale Quinoa Burgers are delicious served with anything you like, and they still retain their awesome flavor and a perfect hint of spice. We love ours […]
In the summertime we look for cold desserts because we find them most refreshing in the heat, and we find coconut to be a perfect fix. If you didn’t already know though we are HUGE chocoholics and we have to get our chocolate fix in, so we thought why not […]
