Banana Oatmeal Muffins

This recipe is from Green Lite Bites (which I found on Pinterest, of course).  It's a Banana Oatmeal Muffin, but it's really more of a non-muffin.  The only ingredients are bananas, almond milk, eggs, oatmeal, vanilla extract, and chocolate chips.

Quick Weeknight Dinner: Chicken Barley Stew

This was a quick dinner I threw together one Sunday evening.  I had some Bob's Red Mill pearl barley I bought for a beef stew recipe a while back.  I didn't think I'd ever find another way to use the barley, but it turns out you can add it to almost anything!  It takes about an hour to cook, or you can soak it overnight and it'll cook up quicker.

I started by boiling the pearl barley in chicken broth with a couple bay leaves.

Lemon Crisp Cookies

Woo!!  These were a great choice!

I found this Lemon Crisp Cookie recipe from Pinterest.  I'm going to post the pic from the blog, because it's MUCH prettier than mine.  lol


 Isn't that pretty?!  Mine didn't look that good, but they certainly tasted good!  They were a refreshing change from the typical heavy holiday foods and desserts.

New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookies

I love cookies.  SO MUCH!  I usually stick to the no fail Nestle Toll House chocolate chip cookie recipe, but found this one on Pinterest.
