Best Granola Recipe
So simple. Most granola recipes are all pretty much the same. I like this one because it yields a good texture, isn’t too sweet, and has some flavor. I hardly ever measure ingredients, so this is a rough estimate. 2 cups rolled oats 1 cup shredded coconut 1 cup pepitas 1 cup hemp hearts 3… read more »
Hemp Milk {No waste}
I just emerged from a powerful week in the desert with Protect Our Winters (POW) and am really amped on ways we can support our mother. Of course, the big changes need to happen (READ: VOTE), but that’s another conversation. Small things we do in our daily lives can still be impactful, and connect us… read more »
!Rhubarb!
Is there anything more spring than rhubarb? Growing up in Minnesota we had a garden, and rhubarb was one of the first things ready to harvest. I have fond memories of eating rhubarb crisp with Schwan’s vanilla ice cream out on our deck. Meaning one thing…. SUMMER IS COMING! There are so many rhubarb dessert… read more »
Fika

I can’t think of anything more festive than coffee + delicious Swedish treats on a cold winter day. Fika is not just an occasion for coffee, but also… read more »

Baked Chocolate Donuts
Sick days are no fun. But, they are better when you make donuts!…. and eat almost all of them in one sitting. Ooops. I’m not going to claim these baked donuts are as tasty as their fried counterparts, but they are pretty easy to whip up without the mess of trying to make a deep fryer in… read more »
Croissants with Taryn
My friend Taryn rocks. Not once, but twice, she has come to Bend to hang out with me when I’ve found myself injured and Zach is out of town. We’ve got in down to a routine. We bake, watch movies, drink wine, and laugh a lot. I cannot express in words how great it is… read more »
Weekday Bread
This is one of my favorite bread recipes ever. Partially because it’s so easy and the bread is delicious every single time. And there is nothing better than homemade bread. Well, maybe the smell of homemade bread as it’s baking. This is a great weekday bread recipe because it has very minimal involvement. You can mix it up in… read more »
