Butterscotch Oatmeal Blondies
These Butterscotch Oatmeal Blondies are one of my husband’s favorite treats. So much so, I have actually wrapped a batch and given it to him as a Christmas or anniversary present over the years. He likes to freeze and eat them very cold. The rest of us enjoy them at room temperature－and…
Pasta Crust
A few months ago, I started experimenting with “crusts” made from pasta. I tried various binder combinations of eggs, cheese, milk, and olive oil until I hit on this version. We love it. The concept is fun, the taste is delicious, and the crust can be a base for all sorts of toppings. While I…
Savory Breakfast Quinoa
Luckily, I had more than the serving pictured above because, no sooner than I snapped this photo, I knocked the plate over and sent quinoa, veggies, and egg flying. Broke the plate, too! My dog recently hurt his leg so even he didn’t run to my rescue and help with the clean up! But back…
Whole Grain White Chocolate Zucchini Bread
We grow zucchini in our garden and, inevitably, we end up with more than we can use. One day, there may be two zucchini which are a bit too small to pick. The next thing you know, there are five the size of rolling pins! I often use the extra large zucchini for baking. While…
Peach and Blueberry Yogurt Muffins
Loaded with whole grains and a generous dose of naturally sweet fruit, these muffins offer an easy, healthy, and decidedly delicious way to start the day! The Black and Blueberry Oat Muffins were such a hit in our house that I made this tasty variation using peaches. This time, instead of the…
Peach Swirl Baked Oatmeal
Easy to prep ahead with pantry ingredients and fresh peaches, although frozen peaches work well too. Either way, this breakfast is worth waking up for! Baked oatmeal is such a favorite breakfast in our house, and I have fun inventing new recipes with each season. With its bounty of fresh fruit, summer affords numerous…
Sunflower Zucchini Bread (Gluten-Free with Coconut Flour)
While I typically use my tried-and-true gluten-free flour blend as a cup-for-cup stand in when baking quick breads, cakes, muffins, I have been experimenting more and more with various flours used separately, specifically, almond flour and coconut flour. Coconut flour is unique in that very little of it is required relative to other flours due…
Quinoa, Cheddar and Zucchini Bake
Simple ingredients mix up in a snap and then bake to golden perfection for an easy, cheesy meal enjoyed by kids and adults alike! Delicious recipes that allow for seasonal adjustments rank high in my book. Originally, I developed this baked quinoa dish because I wanted to use this wholesome grain in a new…
Black and Blueberry and Oat Muffins
In my mind, blueberry muffins are a delicious, tender, white flour affair–sort of like cake! As often as I create healthy muffin recipes, until now I had not messed with the classic blueberry muffin. But loving blueberries as I do, and because I like muffins to be a healthy breakfast or snack option, it…
Muffin-Cup Barbecue Turkey Meatloaves (Gluten-Free)
This flavorful take on the classic meatloaf was inspired a while back by some leftover homemade barbecue sauce. While I often use dry oats as a binder, you may also experiment with cooked quinoa–even crushed saltines or panko, if you are not concerned about a gluten-free meatloaf. The addition of barbecue sauce and salsa give…
Healthy Banana Nut Pancakes
Start the weekend with a wholesome stack of pancakes–and don’t miss the crunchy, salty-sweet topping suggestion! I adore pancakes. I also adore maple syrup. So much so that I often have a dull headache after eating this favorite weekend breakfast fare. Likely because the pancakes act like a sponge, and when the syrup disappears,…
Baked Egg Avocados
Sometimes, I “share” an idea on my Fountain Avenue Kitchen Facebook page. It might be a recipe from another website that I think looks delicious, or perhaps just a helpful hint or novel idea that had never occurred to me. This is one of those shares that I was inspired to try right away. I…
