CINNAMON ROLLS!!!! Who else loves them?! I have the fondest memories of sweet cinnamon-laced yeasty bread covered in sticky icing. I think it’s how my love affair with cinnamon began. To this day, I still can’t turn down a big gooey cinnamon roll. However, the after-effects aren’t as heavenly the delicious taste. <– Sugar crash alert!!! Even though I have dreamed up plenty of ideas of creating a healthy, plant-based version, I’m lazier and more […]

Have you guys hear about the soothing turmeric and black pepper infused beverage that is all the rage. appropriately called Golden Milk. It’s easy to make at home but now it’s popping up in trendy restaurants as well! Yay? Nay? Personally, I have an aversion to all things turmeric. The color, the flavor, the scent.

Case in point: this Cinnamon Crunch Granola. I am all about that cinnamon crunch! it’s a throwback to the days when I would go to Panera once or twice a month to indulge in the well-known bagel of the same name. You […]
