Even the "healthiest" granola or protein bar you find on the grocery store shelf can contain ingredients you may not want to consume regularly.

December Drifts
Most of the pics from my drifts, meanderings and rambles are from around my yard and my travels to and from work. My goal for 2022 is to get out into my neighborhood and other areas for more walks around the village and various waterways, either early mornings or in the afternoons...I am so looking … Continue reading December Drifts

And, I love a hummus, but not a fan eating just chickpeas by themselves! So weird. However, once I add them to a salad or combine them with other … Continue reading Chickpea Salad
CRANBERRY CUTIE

Depending on the nut, however, it will add a level of grittiness or creaminess to the recipe depending … Continue reading CRANBERRY CUTIE
