These chewy chocolate pecan cookies are stuffed with a brown butter pecan butter filling that leads to a perfect cookie sandwich bite.
Why put peanut butter on your Greek yogurt every morning when you could instead be having brown butter pecan frosting.
That was my existential crisis of Wednesday.
This Post Brought To You By UNCLE BEN’S®. As always, my thoughts and opinions are my own. Whether eaten as a side dish or a vegetarian meal, this oven-baked brown rice and eggplant casserole is full of fresh flavors that won’t fail to please.
Sometimes healthy living is a day-by-day kind of thing.
It’s not being the person to finish off the last of the box of chocolate-covered-toffees sitting outside your boss’s office even though you are working on the computer less than two feet away from it for five hours straight.
It’s walking the 15 blocks to the grocery store instead of taking the bus even though it is the ever invigorating “feels like -20F” outside.
And then it’s the sense of triumph you feel when you realize you have reached your destination and haven’t been passed by a bus, so had you decided to give into your laziness…you would still be waiting.
In -20F. 20 minutes later.
(Go health.)
1. I am so over PV2. It can take its snow and wind and thunder (yes. this happened) and go back to the Arctic Circle. Not kidding. But in the meantime, I’ll be consoling myself (and my wet sneakers) with cookies. (<–silver lining)
Pizza gets a healthy spin with toppings of kale pesto, roasted sweet potatoes, and brie.
I’m a girl on a mission.
A pizza mission.
This strata is the breakfast of champions with its kale, butternut squash, and creamy bechamel base.
You can consider this my butternut swan song.
(Cue the.boy breathing a huge sigh of relief.)
(Then cue me cackling because using “swan song” and “butternut” and “me” in the same sentence is just…not a possible real life thing. In his dreams, maybe. But who really wants to go there.)
You get a double dose of delicious with these double-layered peanut butter cheesecake brownies!
I got an almost-kiss when I presented these to the.boy for breakfast yesterday.
Why almost, you ask?
Well, when you are simultaneously trying to shove a brownie in your face whilst trying to kiss your fiance it’s kind of a half-kiss, half-brownie-face-smash, mostly-trying-to-get-as-little-brownie-near-my-mouth-as-possible-lest-he-miss-out-on-a-single-crumb situation.
