These lychee popsicles are made with canned lychee, and are the simplest popsicles I’ve made yet. They also help me cool off these warm days in my […]

Green Tea Caramel Cupcakes

August 22, 2014 Cakes

Green Tea is one of my favorite flavors because it’s so calm and soothing. When I drink green tea it makes me feel like I’m sitting at a breezy place (the beach in San Diego is my favorite) in a soft armchair enjoying good weather. Besides liking the tea itself, I’m obsessed with any food […]

Even though this caramel is healthier, it still has all the delicious taste of salted caramel made with cream and butter = can we make an extra jar please?

Moist banana muffins with sweet drizzle

July 14, 2014 Breakfast

I used to make banana bread pretty regularly using butter and sour cream. It was tasty, but pretty unhealthy, so not something I would eat for breakfast. This banana muffin is the healthier and moister version of the banana bread I used to make. Plus it’s vegan! Because this is the lightened up version, you […]

There are annotations under many items about how I use it, and if you have […]
