I can never understand why the brown spotted bananas are considered bad and are always on sale. The brown spotted ones are the best ones! You can actually eat them when you buy them. If you buy the “good,” full-priced bananas, you’ve got to wait a week before they’re ripe enough to eat. I’ve been…
Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins
These Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins are packed with oats to keep you full all morning, but still fluffy and sweet just like a muffin should be! Nick’s birthday was a few days ago, so… Happy Belated Birthday, Nick! Sadly, Nick spent most of the day traveling home from training in California, flying from Fresno to Salt Lake…
Almond Pear Baked Oatmeal
This easy Almond Pear Baked Oatmeal is the perfect breakfast for your busy week. It’s packed with healthy ingredients and can be made ahead of time and quickly reheated!

These cookies have a little bit of everything– oatmeal, raisins, craisins and cinnamon chips. You could sub pecans or walnuts or white chocolate chips. Go crazy! They’re cakey but moist, and oh…
Oatmeal Everything Cookies

Ginger Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Two things happened yesterday. First, Nick’s Aunt Diane emailed me, telling me she was making oatmeal raisin cookies (using whole wheat flour, under my influence, woo!). This had me thinking about oatmeal cookies all day long. Then, as I was updating my Recipes Page (you’re welcome), I noticed how few dessert recipes I have on…
Blueberry Muffin Baked Oatmeal
This Blueberry Muffin Baked Oatmeal is a great make-ahead breakfast that’s easy to meal prep. Packed with fiber and healthy fats, it will keep you full all morning!

Pumpkin Oatmeal Pancake
As I’ve mentioned before, I have a slight obsession with all things pumpkin. This morning I found myself with a little extra time on my hands before work, so I decided to make one of my old favorites for breakfast: a pumpkin oatmeal pancake! You don’t really even need much extra time. It only takes…
