What is the big deal about overnight oats anyway? I promise the answer to that question is in your first bite of overnight oats! At first, could sound like a weird concept to eat a cold oats mixture for breakfast. And while you can heat these up, you’ll find the cold version to be incredibly delicious and a lot like eating dessert for breakfast. I also just have to tell you that I HATE oatmeal, and the all-caps aren’t enough to tell you how much I dislike oatmeal....

This is the third post in a 3-part series of facial care, and it is perhaps, the most important. Steps 1 and 2, the Pineapple Facial and Baking Soda Exfoliation are primarily exfoliation with some cleansing. This Oil Method Cleansing is not only cleansing but also mildly exfoliating and moisturizing. (You can skip straight to the bottom of the post for oil recommendations and the cleansing method.) If I had to choose just one facial treatment to use every single day, it would be this one because it does a little bit of everything....

I’ve been on a bit of a kick trying to make ‘healthier’ versions of my favorite recipes. Teriyaki sauce has always been a go-to in our house, but I’ve moved away from it over the years because it has so much sugar in it. I started making lower sugar versions with this Teriyaki Chicken Stir Fry. And now today, I have a no sugar, super flavorful teriyaki sauce to share with you....

Meal prepping has been so helpful to both of us for eating healthier on a regular basis. But meal prepping snacks has been just as important if not even more so. Having a healthy option around to grab when you’re running out the door in a hurry is beyond helpful. So with that in mind, all of my meal prepping snacks are based off things that keep for weeks to even months at a time....

I teased you a while back with a picture of these right around Christmas time, and I fully intended to get you the recipe right away. But… I got distracted with these Flourless Chocolate Peanut Butter Muffins and then there was some Chocolate Fudge Skillet Cake. And somehow 10 weeks flew by, so you’ll have to accept my full apologies for making you wait so long! These brownies are definitely different than the usual, and for normal brownies be sure and check out my flourless Brownie recipe....

These Teriyaki Chicken Skewers are a balance of salty and sweet, with the piquancy of mirin and the headiness of garlic and ginger thrown in! Mirin is a Japanese cooking wine made from rice. It’s essential for a more authentic teriyaki flavor, but isn’t totally necessary. I’ve made this sauce many time without it, and it’s still great. But I would definitely encourage you to look for it at your local grocery store or Asian grocery if you’re lucky enough to have one!...

Glacier National Park is spread out over 3 main regions. There is so much to see, you’re going to want to pack as much adventure as possible into your trip! After visiting Yellowstone National Park, I wrote about my Top 10 Tips for Visiting based off all of our experiences. Since then, so many people have wrote to tell me how much they enjoyed it. So today I’m writing out my tips for each park we visit!...

Don’t let these photos fool you… Yellowstone is very busy! These short scenic boardwalk hikes are often wall-to-wall with people. But if you go in the off hours or the off season it’s so much quieter. West Thumb Geyser Basin is a Yellowstone classic that we missed on our first trip through Yellowstone. So we knew we really wanted to see it when we realized our next road trip would pass right through this area....

Yum Yum sauce is just as its name implies: it’s super tasty! It’s served at Japanese steakhouses and usually paired with hibachi dinner. You can buy bottled Yum Yum sauce at the store, but there’s nothing like homemade, and it only takes a few minutes! Plus, your at-home version of a hibachi restaurant tastes way better. Below, you’ll find my recipe with avocado oil mayonnaise made from scratch in your blender....

Asparagus is our favorite veggie, so naturally, it was the first veggie I threw in my brand-new air fryer. It turned out so yummy I’ve been air-frying asparagus almost every single day since. We can’t get enough of this super simple side dish, and I know you’re going to love it too. The air fryer turns asparagus perfectly crisp and tender with just the right amount of roasted browned flavor....

While I love a good lettuce wrap burger, it’s pretty hard to beat a burger bowl. Lettuce wraps are inherently messy, so it’s just a natural progression to simply pile all the ingredients into a bowl ‘salad style’. With this concept in mind, I’ve been having a great time piling anything I love on a burger into a salad bowl. It started last summer with my Cheeseburger Salad with Secret Sauce Dressing....

Have you ever had a burger bowl before? They were new to me not that long ago, but they’re now something I make almost every single week of the year! They’re basically all the things you’d want on a burger piled into a bowl. This means there’s room for even more toppings and sauce because you’re not trying to hold it all together with a bun. I’m all about more sauce myself, so burger bowls are where it’s at....

Do you love creamy sauces? I sure do! This ultra-creamy Tuscan Chicken is sometimes called ‘Marry Me Chicken’ because it’s just that good. Tuscan chicken is enveloped in a creamy sauce with sun-dried tomatoes, herbs, and spinach. It’s incredible comfort food that’s also really easy to make. It’s typically made with heavy whipping cream and you’ll find that listed below in the recipe. But for anyone who is dairy-free, this recipe also comes with 2 dairy-free options....

This whole recipe started with an overload of peaches, and with them I decided to create a salsa. And it just spiralled from there into a whole meal! There’s so much going on here though, you can easily break out just certain parts of the recipe. The peach avocado salsa is awesome on it’s own in a ‘chips and salsa’ situation (try sliced cucumber or plantain chips for a fun variation on corn chips)....

This body butter is my solution the fact we’ve been having such a chilly fall that it might as well be winter. I mean… it was 7ºF the other morning, and my skin has noticed to say the least! We live in a fairly dry climate, but even more so in the colder months. So when the weather turns colder every year, I notice in my skin right away. Gone are the balmy days of summer, and hello dry skin!...

These apple muffins are inspired by a memory of muffins I used to make back in the days of white flour and sugar. They were chock full of apple chunks, and had the perfect amount of cinnamon in them. Needless to say, they were pretty much my favorite way to welcome in the fall season. So many years have passed since I use to make those muffins that I completely forgot about them....

Grand Prismatic Geyser is perhaps the most well known geyser in Yellowstone, (besides Old Faithful I suppose)! And… why wouldn’t it be, the colors are so unreal you feel like you may just be on another planet! We went midday and the light was very harsh. So I’d recommend morning or early evening for the best photography opportunity. Whenever you go, try to see this geyser on a sunny day because the colors really pop when there’s direct light....

‘Makin’ Banana Pancakes on the weekend or pretend that it’s the weekend, yeah’. These are great for a lazy weekend morning as well as easing the Monday morning blues. I’m not much of a breakfast person during the week. But sometimes a little something out of the ordinary in the form of pancakes and extra espresso is definitely in order. The best part of this recipe is that it takes less than 10 minutes to prep....

Some flavor of stir fry is on our table pretty much every single week of the year. And this honey garlic version is an all-time favorite. It’s based on the classic honey garlic chicken wings and those flavors are perfect for stir fry as well. How to make this recipe step by step I really hope you enjoy this Honey Garlic Chicken Stir Fry recipe! If you do get a chance to make this recipe, I’d love to hear from you in the comments....

Roasting asparagus brings out all of it’s natural goodness. It’s sweetness and flavors intensify with the heat. After eating asparagus steamed or raw for most of my life, roasted definitely bring things to a whole new level. I believe it was the Barefoot Contessa who first did Parmesan Roasted Asparagus, but who can keep track anymore? My version of this dish is so simple, that I hesitate to even call it a recipe....
