Healthy Blueberry Oatmeal Bars: Gluten Free

July 27, 2021 By jaclyn Leave a Comment

Easy baked oatmeal bars that taste way better than store bought and perfect for a snack, dessert or even breakfast. What can I say, I love a versatile snack and these are it. They disappear pretty quickly whenever I make them and it’s only two of us living here, so you know they’re good. Filled with a jammy blueberry filling and a buttery oat topping, they taste much more decadent than they really are. Minimal ingredients, one bowl and ready in about an hour, these blueberry oatmeal bars are the perfect treat to enjoy.

What could be more summery than this? Grilled chicken, check. Tequila and limes, check. Chicken skewers, check! All of the above are great indicators that we’re in pure summer mode and I for one, couldn’t be happier. Summer always flies by so quickly and I try to take full advantage when it’s here. One of the ways to do that is by firing up the grill and making these grilled tequila lime chicken thighs. These are packed with flavour and so simple to make. Because the last thing I want to do in the summer is spend time indoors prepping food. And luckily with this recipe, you won’t need to.

key lime cookie bar with white chocolate

Yum

Looking for a light and summery type of cookie? These key lime cookies are IT! Studded with white chocolate chips, lots of lime juice and zest, they have all the flavour of a key lime pie, but in a cookie bar form. Cookie bars may just be one of my new favourite things to bake. I love how easy they are to make and that classic cookie taste but without the stress of trying to form cookies and wondering if they’re going to bake up how I want them. If you don’t love white chocolate, you can omit it and use nuts like macadamia or pecans.

Healthy Macaroni Salad: Gluten Free

May 20, 2021 By jaclyn Leave a Comment

Yum

Love macaroni salad, me too! This creamy macaroni salad is easy to make and absolutely delicious. You won’t even be able to tell that it’s actually a little lighter than a traditional macaroni salad. Rather than using lots and lots of mayo (even though I love the stuff!), I use a blend of Greek yogurt and mayonnaise to make it richer, tangier and a bit healthier. So even though this is called a healthy macaroni salad, don’t be afraid to switch it up and try this version instead. Your tastebuds will thank you, I promise.

Who doesn’t love a sheet pan meal? Throwing everything on a sheet pan and cooking it at the same time is exactly what I need sometimes (ok most times). And this Greek sheet pan chicken is bursting with flavour! Letting the chicken marinade for a short time helps do that. Plus, you’ll throw on some potatoes, tomatoes, and a few other goodies to round it out to a full meal. Serve it with some pita and/or a side salad (if you’d like) and call it a day.

Crispy Air Fryer Wings: Mexican Inspired

April 27, 2021 By jaclyn Leave a Comment

Yum

If you love chicken wings, especially crispy ones and Mexican food and flavours, you’re gonna love these Mexican chicken wings. Made with a simple dry rub and then air fried until perfectly crispy, they’re actual heaven. Once they’re air fried, go ahead and drizzle the lime crema, cotija cheese, cilantro and some serrano peppers for heat. Highly suggest pairing these air fryer wings with some guac and a marg (preferably on a sunny day) but honestly, you could eat these in the dead of winter and just blast the heat and pretend you’re somewhere warm. I do this ALL the time 😉
