making jam in the oven…yes the oven
Is there anything better than homemade jam? I don’t know about you but I love me some homemade jam, but I never thought I could make my own without a whole lot of time and trouble…well I am here to change your mind…we are going to be making jam in the oven. OK…now I know some of you might be thinking I am a little crazy. First I am talking about making jam, and second I am talking about making jam in the oven…yes both are true. So jam in the oven, really? That is what I thought when I first saw the recipe. I couldn’t understand how that would…

Bacon + Jam = AMAZING
Bacon & Jam together at last…yes you read that right today is all about Bacon Jam. For those of you who have not had the distinct pleasure of enjoying this wonderful jam then you are going to be in for the treat of your life (ok at least this week, ok maybe today) but is really is so yummy!! I first came across bacon turned into jam at a local hamburger place. They were putting it on their burgers instead of slices of bacon. Now I was a little nervous when I ordered by first bacon jam burger…but all that went away after my first delicious bite. The jam brings…

get up & smell the bacon
Spring Break is here and that means it is time to relax, have fun and EAT…& I say lets eat some bacon!! There is just something so indulgent about bacon that makes you feel like your doing something a little naughty…and trust me this sweet & spicy version is a keeper for sure!! In my house plain bacon is special… but this version takes it to a whole new level. The trick to this bacon is baking it…do you normally bake it? I started baking mine a while ago…not only does it make perfectly crisp, but still tender & it is so much LESS messy. There is no bacon grease spattering…

skinny oatmeal n muffins
Mornings are made for muffins…like these blueberry muffins, strawberry muffins, chocolate chip muffins or even these bran muffins but sometimes muffins can be really full of all that stuff we don’t need (i.e. fat, calories & points)…but don’t worry I found these muffins! First off I love oatmeal & I love muffins so the idea of putting oatmeal in a muffin made me a little giddy and then add in some brown sugar and maple syrup and I get super giddy. Not only are these muffins loaded with things I love but they also taste anything but skinny, they actually taste very indulgent and you might even have some thoughts of guilt…

let’s go…go…go for some oatmeal
Let’s talk about breakfast. Do you eat breakfast everyday? Do you LOVE breakfast or is something you have to do? Do you change it up or do you eat the same thing everyday? Are you always in a hurry in the morning and need something that is easy and already done when you wake-up? How about overnight oats that are ready when you get up? For me I am eating breakfast everyday…NOW, but that has not always been the case. Breakfast is not something I LOVE or think about or crave but in the last few months all of that has been slowly changing. For the New Year I have…

a little punkin butter fun
OK it is no secret that I LOVE pumpkin anything and everything…I love pumpkin pie, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin pasta, but I especially LOVE pumpkin butter. My obsession with pumpkin butter started several years ago on a quick trip to Williams Sonoma to pick-up some kitchen towels (they are he only towels I use) and I was asked to try their pumpkin butter. I, of course, agreed immediately and gobbled up (yes it was like a gobble…it was pumpkin people) and I was instantly in love. It was so pumpkiny (that is is a word in my world) with a perfect hint of spice and then the bite…
