People like to talk about seasonal food, but with modern transportation and grocery stores, it's sometimes easy to forget that most of us do not live in an area where a wide variety of produce grows year-round. And yet even though you can pretty much always get things like lettuce, carrots, bananas, and apples, in … Continue reading Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread/Muffins (Whole Wheat)

Pumpkin Muffins
A few weeks ago I ended up with some free time with the munchkin while the peanut was napping. My freezer stock on muffins was getting low and we were having company that weekend, so I thought a baking project might be fun. When I asked her what kind of muffins we should make, she … Continue reading Pumpkin Muffins
Chocolate Muffins
If you've been following my posts about the baby naming we hosted for our little peanut, you'll know I found a new chocolate muffin recipe to try out on my guests. These muffins really could pass for dessert, but I figured for a special event, having some decadent choices to go with all of … Continue reading Chocolate Muffins
Quinoa Muffins
Yes, another muffin recipe. I fully admit that I have a crazy obsession with muffins, but I just love that it is so easy to make a snack suitable for kids and grown-ups with wholesome ingredients that keeps beautifully in the freezer. Really, what could be better? I've been wanting to try these for a … Continue reading Quinoa Muffins
Oatmeal Muffins
Oats are a food I am always trying to get more of into my diet. I tried having oatmeal for breakfast every day, but I can't quite get into it - every once in a while I like it, but I always get sucked back in by my GoLean Crunch addiction! Oatmeal cookies are great, but … Continue reading Oatmeal Muffins
Cornbread (Muffins)
---This post is part of my Canadian Thanksgiving series--- I've already told you about the Classic Lasagna I made to serve upon arrival for our Thanksgiving weekend guests, but I thought one more home-cooked meal (in addition to the big Thanksgiving feast!) was warranted that weekend. Lunch the day after our big meal seemed like … Continue reading Cornbread (Muffins)
Carrot Coconut Muffins
Ok, I'll admit it right up front, this is the third time I'm posting a variation of this recipe - first as carrot cupcakes, and the second time as carrot zucchini muffins. But I promise, these muffins keeps getting healthier AND better, so even if you're sick of hearing about them, I want to remember what I … Continue reading Carrot Coconut Muffins
Coconut Muffins – Update
Hi everyone! A couple of weeks ago I told you about the Coconut Muffin recipe I found on Sweet + Natural. Well, I'm happy to report that they have become one of the munchkin's favorites, and mine, too! I really want to make them part of my regular rotation, but was still a little concerned because … Continue reading Coconut Muffins – Update
Coconut Muffins
This weekend, hubby's sister and her husband are coming to NYC for an anniversary weekend getaway. They'll be staying with us Friday night, and then moving to a hotel for the next 2 nights (not sure why they don't consider staying on a hard pull-out couch in a room with no door and getting woken … Continue reading Coconut Muffins
Blueberry Bran Muffins
Way back in December, I told you about a yummy Bran Muffin recipe I found. And while these were really tasty, they were a wee bit on the heavy side. Ok, so they were a lot heavy. I think the combination of bran and stone ground wheat flour made them really dense, so ever since … Continue reading Blueberry Bran Muffins
