Aebleskivers aka "Puff Pancakes"
I LOVE Aebleskivers! you can make them as a breakfast OR as a dessert which is one of the reasons why I love them. Not to mention, they are bite size so you can eat more of them faster (hehe). Aebleskivers are a Danish treat and are basically a traditional pancake in the shape of a sphere. They are most commonly eaten at Christmas or special holidays leading up to Christmas. To get the sphere shaped you will need a special pan that has the indention's in it to make them but o
Not worth it...Stick to it!
January 21st was my older brother and sister's birthday, the big 3-0! and for birthday celebrations my sister wanted to go to Olive Garden...Dillon and I just started our 4th week on our detox, we cheated and I am here to say it was NOT worth. We thought we would be fine having one cheat meal and eat whatever we wanted at Olive Garden but we were so wrong. We both got pastas and we felt soo so sick afterward. This is all I wanted to say....cheating is so not worth it...stick

Pasta Salad
I'm already thinking about summer BBQs and this yummy pasta salad is a great throw together side. The great thing about this salad is there really isn't a set measurement for each ingredient, you add everything to your liking. First cook your curly pasta according to the package instructions for Al Dente, you don't want your pasta too soft or it will get mushy so cook it Al Dente or just a tad bit longer. Once the noodles are done, strain it and spray it with cold water to

Better than "sexcake"
I didn't say all of the recipes I post would be healthy....hehe. This is one of my favorite quick desserts. First, start by baking your chocolate cake according to the instructions on the box in a 9x13 pan. Once that comes out, let it cool down for about 5 minutes then poke holes all over your cake. I just used the handle of my spoon but you can use anything as long as your holes aren't too small or to ginormous. After you poke your holes pour the can of sweetened condensed m
Detox Detox Detox
I've had so many people ask what detox I was doing and would like more information on my eating plan and workouts so I thought I would share that information with you all today :) First of all, what is detoxing? detoxing is about "resting, cleansing and nourishing the body from the inside out." The goal is to eliminate toxins that are weighing you down and begin feeding your body with healthy nutrients. Its simply just trying to get your body and mind in a good place where yo

Cutie turkey meatloaf cupcakes!
Check out these cuties! If you are looking for such an easy, quick and grab and go meal to make then you should make these fun turkey meatloaf cupcakes with sweet potato "frosting". I love the kind of recipes where you just mix everything together in a bowl then throw it in the oven. All I did was place my ground turkey, eggs, garlic powder, parsley, bread crumbs, ketchup, worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper and onion in a bowl and mixed it all together. I find it easiest t

Yummy Spaghetti Squash
Ok here is the post again! I don't know why it went up and then disappeared so sorry about that BUT Spaghetti squash is amazing...it is such a great replacement to regular noodles (even though nothing can really replace noodles) and I think you all will enjoy this. If you have never cooked with spaghetti squash it is super easy... I made a little tutorial video to show you guys how you prepare the spaghetti squash. Be very careful when cutting the spaghetti squash, sometimes

Cauliflower Fried Rice
I've had a lot of people ask me for my cauliflower fried rice recipe so I want to share it with all of you! This is one of my favorite go to recipes I found that satisfies any rice craving I may be having. If you haven't eaten cauliflower or cooked with it before BEWARE it smells like straight up butt! but don't worry it doesn't taste the way it smells. I apologize I don't have any great pictures to share of me making it besides the pictures I took on my phone because I didn'

The Struggle is REEEALLL
Guys I have to share with you this video my sister shared with me from Youtube that describes my struggles DAILY! I never said changing the way you eat was going to be easy, in fact it is HARD...VERY HARD! I even question if it's going to be worth it and majority of the time it doesn't feel worth it at all! Let me tell you where I am coming from....I am definitely an emotional/social eater. I eat when I am sad, mad, stressed, happy, anxious, and tired. You have heard of "soci

Candied Almonds
I have learned to hate almonds...they are a healthy thing to snack on when trying to change your eating habits however when you are constantly eating them you begin to realize how dry they are and basically taste like bark. Almonds are FILLED with health benefits so this time around I just had to doctor them up to make them edible. I worked for a company called Xlear, INC. which made products with Xylitol the natural sweetener and I fell in love with all of the products and
