NiceCream (Banana Raspberry)

One of the absolute BEST ways of using old and spotty bananas is to make NiceCream! (You thought I was gonna say “banana bread” didn’t you? That was so last year; the new hot thing is “NiceCream” — so be sure to jump on the bandwagon! 😉 ) Most of us seem to “collect” spotty bananas on our… Continue reading NiceCream (Banana Raspberry)

Heart of Palm (Vegetarian) Ceviche

Okay you guys…today I have an oldie, but a goodie for you! It’s a traditional Ecuadorian appetizer, which all Ecuadorians ADORE. We eat this while at the beach, highlands, jungle, Galapagos…you name it; just anywhere and everywhere. It is so delicious, so refreshing, so healthy, and so good for you. Ceviches are typically enjoyed at the begging… Continue reading Heart of Palm (Vegetarian) Ceviche

Coconut Flan

Yesterday was one of those days where I felt like devouring everything and anything I could get my hands on (watch out kitchen!) — I had the appetite of a lioness, and could not control it. Wrawr!

Pie de Limon (Lemon Meringue Pie)

I am sharing another one of my mother’s specialties today (I am still in Ecuador and I am loving every second of learning more and more of my mother’s little kitchen secrets!) This pie is to die for.

Vegan Cinnamon Rolls

Warning: these Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls are dangerously good! (There, you’ve been warned.) They are the kind of treat you want to make once every blue moon…and only when company’s coming over (to have people help you eat them.) At my home, we made the horrific mistake of making these when we had no company over.… Continue reading Vegan Cinnamon Rolls

Paleo Blueberry Banana Muffins

My husband and I celebrated our 3-year anniversary yesterday. It was so romantic and sweet.  I feel so blessed to have married my best friend. To start our day right, I surprised him with a fun little breakfast treat that I knew he’d fully enjoy. It was superhero themed (as he is a total nerd… Continue reading Paleo Blueberry Banana Muffins
