Oatmeal Cranberry Bran Muffins
Oatmeal Cranberry Bran Muffins are my answer to my mom’s bran muffins. Growing up mom always had these Bran Muffins in the refrigerator ready to bake, well I have updated them just a bit. Cranberry + Oatmeal + Bran = Yes! I love a good muffin for breakfast, or a snack, but I especially love them when there are cranberries, oatmeal and the sweetness of my bran muffins. The cranberries and oats really help cut the sweetness of the muffins while adding in great texture and a bit if tartness. If cranberries are not your thing you can use dried cherries, or another dried berry if wanted, or leave out…

Skillet Sesame Chicken
Sesame Chicken just makes me smile. It is one of my most favorite take out options from my local Chinese restaurant. What is yours? Better than Take Out The beauty of this sesame chicken is that you know exactly what is going in it and you can change it up as needed. If you want it a little sweeter you can add in some brown sugar or more honey. If you want it less, then leave it out. Want it more acidic, throw in some lime. So many options. All in One Pan Once the chicken is marinated (which can be done is as little as 30 minutes)…

You could use lemon pepper, or cajun, or just salt & pepper. This time around I used…
