When I was a little girl, my mom and I used to scoop out the insides of pumpkins for Halloween, carve our pumpkins and roast the seeds to snack on. It was a yearly tradition that I loved. Messy, but delicious! I would roast them with sweet seasonings for a sweet snack but this year, […]

Spooky Halloween Cupcakes
It’s HALLOWEEN TIME! Which means candy, sweets and scary things to eat! Well, not toooooo scary. I want the kids to enjoy it after all! Today’s little activity involved cupcake making and decorating. Can you guess which ones my girls made? Hint – the ones with lots of sprinkles and candy. 🙂 These are a […]
Soft & Chewy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
It’s the season for all things pumpkin (and apple)! Pumpkins are being picked, houses are being decorated and cookies are being baked! Lots and lots of cookies are being baked! Now, over on Instagram, I asked my followers what their favorite cookie was and ‘pumpkin chocolate chip’ blew away all the other cookies! To be […]
Meatball Mummy
Need a quick and easy dinner for Halloween? Try this delicious meatball mummy! It’s made with some store-bought puff pastry, cheese pre-made meatballs (I just used some veggie turkey meatballs I had leftover in the freezer) and sauce. That’s it! It’s done in 30 minutes and it couldn’t be more spooky. If you want some […]

Cinnamon Swirl Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Butter Bread
It’s beginning to feel a lot like fall these days – Halloween decorations, pumpkin candles burning in the background, Nora Jones playing in the kitchen…. Fall! I knew I wanted a little treat to go along with all Autumn sites and smells. So when Tieghan Gerard of halfbakedharvest posted this ‘bread’ (aka, cake), this was […]
Pumpkin Spiced Carrot Blender Muffins
I love a good muffin recipe, especially if it’s easy to make in the blender. There’s a blogger out there called Inspiralized and she has so many great blender muffins. I love making her banana blender muffins, fruit and veg blender muffins and spinach muffins. They’re gluten free and have an cooked egg-like texture. They’re […]
Monster Pancakes
It’s February and this morning, Amelia asked me to make her (Halloween) Monster Pancakes. Not Valentine’s themed or belated birthday themed… Halloween themed… Since I never got around to making these for Halloween, I figured why not! It’s veggie and protein packed and they’re super delicious. Oh, and super easy! I usually keep all the […]
Pumpkin Waffles (or Pancakes!)
It’s Halloween week and I’m getting excited for all things Halloween! But first, breakfast. 🙂 Since the pumpkin season is short-lived, about 7 or 8 weeks in my opinion, you have to really jam-pack those weeks full of pumpkin. And so, I am. I have been making this really easy and versatile waffle (or pancake!) […]
