Pistachios and cardamom were destined to be in blender muffins. And on top of the muffins. Can we just eat the muffin tops? Yes, we can. And we should. Before I tell you about these muffins, I just have to say that I’m so grateful to everyone who took the time to encourage me after…
Breakfast
Perfect Green Smoothie
Nearly every time I go to the grocery store one of those huge plastic containers of baby spinach finds its way into my cart. I always have big plans of how I’m going to use it up before it goes bad. My success rate is about 20%. But I see that rate going up exponentially…
Carrot Cake Blender Muffins (V/GF)
For one reason or another, I seem to write these posts in the wee hours of the morning. It’s almost 2am where I currently sit, alone on the couch with my laptop, listening for the occasional murmurs from my tiny humans down the hall. Was that a full-fledged cry? Do I need to go in…
Pomegranate Chocolate Chip Pancakes
So, apparently, I’m all about pomegranates this week. First, we talked about how to seed a pomegranate. Score and smack method for the win! Now, we’re going to talk about pomegranates in pancakes. With pomegranate syrup. So, if you are not a pomegranate fan, I humbly apologize. There will be pomegranate-free recipes coming soon, I…
Vegan Pumpkin Blender Muffins
Happy PUMPKIN season! Time to make vegan pumpkin blender muffins! Yes, my friends, the much-loved original vegan blender muffins got a fall makeover, and they even come with fancy new accessories (or ‘cessories’ as Vida says), in the form of a cinnamon cashew icing!

I am so not a political person, but this time around the brouhaha is simply unavoidable. It’s impossible not to know at least the surface level of the goings-on….
10 Recipes You Need to Make for Mother’s Day
Growing up, I always knew I wanted to be a mom. I was holding babies in the nursery at church before I was technically allowed to do so (the longtime nursery boss let me in early), and I was a certified babysitter by the age of 12. Like, I took a class at the hospital…
Vegan Double Chocolate Hazelnut Blender Muffins
I am a bit obsessed with baking these muffins right now. It started out so simple, this idea to make muffins in a blender, with no bowl at all. The original version got a great response, and I know three people who made them the very first day and have made them several times since….
Vegan Blender Muffins
“There are two types of people in this world. Those who like Neil Diamond and those who don’t.” – Bob Wiley, What About Bob? I would have to add to Bill Murray’s immortal words this additional separator: “There are two types of people in this world. Those who can bake, and those who like to…
Whole Grain Meyer Lemon Scones
Skip to the Recipe There are so many reasons to make these scones. They are made with whole grains (mostly). They are completely plant-based/vegan. They are made without vegan butter or oil and still taste tender and soft. They have less than half the fat of traditional cream scones. They have Meyer Lemon zest and juice…
