Your friends are going to love this snack paired with an ice cold margarita. Cheers!

Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins are a classic and perfect for spring with their bright citrusy flavor. Made with sour cream (or Greek yogurt) these muffins are super moist and the flavor from lemon zest gives them a tangy citrus taste that I love. You can also make a glaze for these muffins with powdered sugar and a little lemon juice. Enjoy!

Blueberry Orange Bread

With spring just around the corner I'm loving the fresh produce I'm starting to see at my local grocery store. Blueberries are one of my absolute favorites so I decided to try this blueberry orange bread for a little weekend treat. The combination of blueberries and orange is a match made in heaven and the sweet crispy top gives this bread great texture. 

Local Loves: Grand Rapids Popcorn Company

As someone who loved her Chicago popcorn I've found a new favorite with Grand Rapids Popcorn. With unique flavors (hello bacon cheddar) and delicious classics you need to pop into GR Popcorn and try a sample or two. 

Spooky Snacks: Apple Teeth

Who's excited for Halloween this week? I'm sure the kids in your life are even more excited for endless amounts of candy and sweet treats. If you're planning a Halloween party with friends I've got the perfect spooky snack - apple teeth. 

Apple Bran Muffins

I can't get enough of all things apple right now. These apple bran muffins have the perfect blend of cinnamon spice paired with a tangy and sweet apple. I found a Gala apple was a great apple for texture and taste in these muffins but feel free to use your favorite type of apple. For a quick breakfast on the go or a lunchtime snack these muffins are a Fall must have. 

Morning Glory Muffins

Good morning! These morning glory muffins with hearty carrots and sweet banana and raisins are the perfect start to the day. If you love carrot cake you will absolutely love these muffins (you could even try them with cream cheese frosting). I was a little skeptical of adding a banana to this recipe but it was a delicious twist on the typical morning glory muffin and kept the consistency extra moist.

Blueberry-Banana Cornmeal Muffins

I absolutely love starting my morning with a homemade blueberry muffin (who doesn't). With overripe bananas sitting in my kitchen I decided to try a twist on the classic blueberry muffin and make these Blueberry-Banana Cornmeal Muffins. The cornmeal base pairs perfectly with the sweet bananas and tart blueberries for a delicious muffin.

Raisin Bran Muffins

For a healthy breakfast or midday snack I'm all about these Raisin Bran Muffins. Not only are they quick and easy to make, but you can also store the batter in your refrigerator to enjoy a hot muffin each morning. 

Strawberry Oatmeal Bars

Strawberries are one of my all time favorite fruits so when I came across this recipe for Strawberry Oatmeal Bars I just had to give them a try. 

Egg and Avocado Toast

Raise your hand if you're obsessed with avocado toast. I'm sure most of you reading this raised your hand because avocado toast is the absolute best breakfast, snack or lunch. To switch things up I added a scrambled egg on top for a little extra protein and now I'm hooked.

Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Coconut Granola

Can we talk about how amazing granola is? Yes, it's easy to pick up a bag of granola at your local grocery store, but homemade granola is probably one of the easiest recipes to make and the best part is you can control the sugar and added ingredients.
