Easy High Protein Pancakes Recipe If you’re looking for extremely easy pancakes that are soft, fluffy, light, and pack extra protein, look no further than this recipe. I used the new Krusteaz Protein Buttermilk Pancake Mix and it couldn’t be easier. You don’t even need to add milk or eggs. Just add the mix to a bowl and add water. I love that you don’t have to go out for buttermilk but can still enjoy the lovely taste of buttermilk pancakes with this mix....

I think this is the first year ever that I almost bought more peaches then we could eat! We went to Eckerts, our favorite Orchard and stocked up, just liked we do every year. Last year I made this delicious Peach Crumb Cake, and Baked Peaches (after I canned most of them, of course). This year I shared these fantastic Peach Scones, and now I’m so happy to share this beautiful, EASY Peach Blackberry Tart!...

Mango, apricots, oranges, and bananas are involved but use peaches or nectarines if you wish. Everything is largely interchangeable. Peaches & Coconut Cream Smoothie (vegan, GF) – with Aruba pictures in the post Baked Orange Banana Coconut Donuts with Orange Coconut Vanilla Cream Cheese Glaze Pina Colada White Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies Caramel Peanut Butter & Apricot Jelly Bars (GF with vegan adaptation) – of all the desserts I’ve ever made, Scott still talks about these The pictures are a bit underwhelming; but these are stellar little bars and very easy...

I bought honey flavored goat cheese since it has a honey drizzle which was perfect. comment icon 30 more comments In This Post: Everything You Need For Pickled Strawberries Lindsay’s Notes Okay, hear me out. Pickled strawberries are my love of the moment. It’s the end of May, the weather feels like summer, school and activity programs are wrapping up, and my interest in making a proper dinner is at an all-time low....

When you see these faces, you just know. There are so many tender and sweet and sacred moments that find their way into the daily grind of this place, it’s enough to make a person’s heart explode. Like adoringly feeding a baby doll out of a blue plastic… trough. Where did she even find that thing? Heart, boom. Wearing the most awkward one-eared bunny rabbit wearing glasses helmet, and laughing about it....

Ultra Soft Cookies with Peanut Butter Chips These cookies turned out so puffy that they caught me by surprise. And they’re so vanilla-ey, but that was by design because I’m a vanilla fiend. They are a little bit peanut buttery even though I didn’t add peanut butter to the actual cookie dough. Instead, I used peanut butter chips and they gave a subtle peanut butter flavor, yet not so much that the vanilla flavor was lost....

I have resisted packing until absolutely necessary. Prior to moving to Phoenix 9 months ago, I went on a major material possessions donation spree. Salvation Army and Goodwill used to send trucks to my house to pick up all my cast-offs. De-cluttering and re-homing items that I will never use is such a freeing feeling! I hate clutter and cannot function with a mess around me. Which is part of the reason I haven’t started packing....

Five different types of chocolate is used. Yes, five: cocoa powder, bittersweet baking chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate chips, chocolate truffles, and chopped chocolate-filled Oreo cookies.A couple weeks ago I received some chocolate truffle cookies and I wasn’t able to get them out of my mind. Rather than buying them for two dollars each because I’d go broke in a day, I attempted to loosely recreate them. I cross-referenced, halved, and adapted the recipe for Thick and Chewy Brownie Cookies from one of my favorite cookbooks, The New Best Recipe from Cooks Illustrated....

As I mentioned in The Vegan Coconut Banana Cookie Bite Recipe, you Don’t Need a Dehydrator For These, just an oven, so I hope you give them a try! They are Gluten & Soy Free, and you can make them with no added sugar or additional sweeteners if you choose! They are soft in the middle and just slightly crunchy on the outside. Sweet and coconutty, but not overpowering. Today I want to give you my Raw Vegan 4-Ingredient, 5-Minute Chocolate Mousse Recipe!...

I keep hearing “2014” and thinking that it’s in like 6 years. Um, no, more like 6 seconds. CAN YOU EVEN BELIEVE IT?! The year 2013 was a really interesting year for Pinch of Yum, because a) I was cooking from the Philippines for half of the year, b) the blog continued to grow in spite of new challenges faced from running a food blog from abroad – seriously, totally unexpected and thank you for your lovin, and c) you showed me that you reeeeally like healthy family-friendly recipes that use the most tasty and delicious whole foods, and I do too!...

Ingredients You Need This is a fairly short (but delicious) ingredient list. comment icon 434 more comments They have this dish called Pra Ram Long Song that I first met and fell in love with when I was in college. Ever since then, it has become one of those dishes where I can’t NOT order it. Even though I want to branch out and try something new which I know in my head will also be delicious, I cannot pull myself away from this mesmerizing dish....

This little taco hits just right with a cheesy, corn-speckled fried egg, refried black beans, Cotija, cilantro, pickled red onions, and a spicy green sauce. Everything You Need For Roasted Corn and Fried Egg Tacos Lindsay’s Notes These fried egg tacos have been my obsession lately! I’ve been making them for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and all manner of “meals” in between....

Lots of standing water and puddles but they seem to be drying out. My view If you can’t get into your Zen groove while running next to this, you never will. No iPod required. Enjoy the tranquility. This is my happy place especially when it’s sunny. The water really is this color. A perfect shade of turquoise-aqua. The rain that we had here wasn’t all bad though because I put some of this white chocolate that I brought with me to use....

Easy Samoa Cheesecake Recipe My two favorite Girl Scout Cookies are Thin Mints and Samoas (or Caramel DeLites, depending on your area). In my childhood and teen years when calories and fat didn’t exist, I could literally polish off a sleeve of Thin Mints or half of a box of Samoas in a sitting. So for me the ultimate indulgence dessert comes in the form of this beloved homemade Samoa Cheesecake!...

Easy Chicken and Sweet Potato Dinner I love sheet pan dinners because they’re easy, tasty, and ready in no time. This easy sheet pan recipe takes advantage of one of my favorite fall ingredients: sweet potatoes. But truthfully, I eat sweet potatoes year-round. I love them prepared in any way. The only downside to sweet potatoes is that if you leave them whole, it can take about an hour to roast them....

Basic Apple Cinnamon Muffins These quick and easy apple muffins are full of chunky apple pieces and are spiced with cinnamon and a bit of nutmeg, which gives them a nice pop. I’m a cinnamon fan, so I used 3 teaspoons. It’s not over-powering and I think apples can really stand up to spices. In fact, I’d probably use more next time. These muffins are fast and easy to make, you don’t need a mixer, and are ready in under a half hour....

And I really liked these cookies. Shocking but true. I’ve said many times that I don’t like nuts in baked goods because they remind me of hard little rocks amidst soft, fluffy, and tender delicacies and just ruin the whole experience. It’s a picky thing of mine because I do love nuts on their own. I could make a dinner out of a can of mixed nuts and did many nights of the week way back when....
