Creating Peace and Joy Where it Matters Most
This is a basic baked oatmeal recipe we eat often. It uses real food ingredients and is not overly sweet. My husband, who does not like oatmeal, loves this and requests it often. We usually add apples to it, but used blackberries in the picture above. Most fruits will work well in this recipe. The [...]
This month, Hyacynth posted a Simple Swap challenge that was right up my alley: Swap out unhealthy fats for healthy ones (replace with coconut oil, if possible). As you may (or may not) know, I like to use coconut oil in cooking and baking. For some reason I still get a little nervous each time [...]
