Breakfast Burritos
Breakfast. Some people say it is the most important meal of the day. I am not a nutritionist or anything close so I can’t claim that breakfast is important for scientific reasons. I am human, though, and know that I need fuel for the day. So breakfast, it’s an important meal. It is also important…
Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Rolls
Fall is officially here and I am fully embracing all things pumpkin spice. I love that when the seasons change our food changes too! Isn’t that what we love about the holidays? Food?!? As we transition from flip flops to boots, shorts to jeans, and tank tops to sweaters, our food transitions from burgers to…
Crumb Coffee Cake
It is not too often that I eat cake for breakfast but when I do – I want a crumb coffee cake. My blueberry coffee cake is amazing as well as my cinnamon sour cream coffee cake. However, nostalgia always takes over and this one brings back all the memories. My sister and I were…
Homemade Doughnuts
In the summer of 1999, I did a study abroad trip in Israel through Brigham Young University. We lived at the BYU Jerusalem Center which had a cafeteria with a head chef named Nasser. Every so often he would treat us to doughnuts. Near the end of our stay he taught a cooking class of…

Breakfast casseroles are perfect for the weekend, lazy Saturday or Sunday mornings when everyone is sleeping in or watching cartoons or if you are in my house, Innovation Nation. They are easy to make ahead and pop in the oven in the morning. Or if you are an early riser, you can throw it together…
Honey Buns
I am sure you have had a version of these cinnamon rolls before – maybe called sticky buns. No matter what you call them, they are delicious. They differ from traditional cinnamon rolls in that they are covered in honey and pecans instead of frosting. I think this makes them easier to make and just…
Apple Muffins
Have you ever contributed to a cookbook for a fundraiser? They are some of my favorite cookbooks because you usually know the people and trust that they are submitting good recipes. I mean, I would only submit my very best, tried and true recipes to a cookbook and I imagine others have the same idea.…
Cinnamon Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Some recipes make me very nostalgic. This is one of them. It makes me miss my mom. Her hand written recipe, memories of winter mornings when she would have a fire going (yes we had an actual wood burning fireplace in South Florida), waking up to the warm cinnamon smell. It will be 19 years…
