While I’m not a vegetarian or a vegan anymore, I still appreciate a satisfying vegetarian meal. You can still meet all of your nutritional requirements, plus vegetarian meals are often cheaper and easier to prepare. This is one such meal.

Well, Happy New Year! I’m torn between feeling like we’ve been in 2013 forever and feeling like, “wait – it’s 2013? It’s here?” For a while now, 2013 has meant exciting things were even closer on the horizon. Now that I’m in the middle of it, it’s crazy to believe it’s actually here! I’m in…

This granola is awesome. Really, I’m not sure what else to say. Maybe the fact that my husband got bummed when I brought some to a friend and decreased his stash? Or the fact that when we were out, he stopped by the store on his way home from work to buy more oats so…
