Hey! You know what I haven’t done in literally two years? A cheater’s recipe! Since I’m sure you don’t remember because how could you possibly, my cheater’s recipes are so called because they’re barely recipes at all. I’m a cheerful baker, but an indifferent cook. So they’re really more like assembly instructions, usually. Ideas for things that can be...

Say, I haven’t done a Cheater’s Recipe in a while! And this one is, like, really cheat-y. I mean, it’s not even really a recipe as such. Well, it kind of is. My point is PEANUT BUTTER YOGURT IS DELICIOUS AND YOU MUST TRY IT. To back up – I am a breakfast person. I like breakfast. I want breakfast....

I am always impressed by the industrious bloggers who are constantly coming up with their own unique recipes. Even the smoothies are themed – strawberry cheesecake smoothies! Pumpkin pie smoothies! THE ULTIMATE GREEN SMOOTHIE RAAAAAAAAR!!! Me, I was just trying to put together a high-protein smoothie to drink after my morning runs that kept me full until lunch and...

Hey, remember my Cheater’s Recipe series? I haven’t done one in quite awhile, but I’m resurrecting it now! For those who may not remember: Cheater’s Recipes are barely recipes. They’re more like assembly instructions, really. They’re for people who are low on time or materials or are just not feeling ACTUAL cooking. Ultimate Example: grilled cheese using a pop-up toaster...

The cheater’s recipe I am about to impart to you may sound gross. In fact, it could BE gross, depending on the decisions you make. But if you proceed correctly, it will be a PARTY IN YOUR MOUTH. A little background: my roommate hosted a Friendsgiving celebration on Saturday, and due to a recipe that lied through its text...

This is so freakin’ easy it’s barely even a recipe. And also, I know it’s not REALLY garlic bread. But it takes, like, 90 seconds to make (which is mostly toaster time) and it can be ready practically whenever you want it with any bread you happen to have on hand. The one thing I must insist on, though,...

This cheater’s recipe is also a cheaper recipe. Basically I want to talk to you about frozen fruit. I know this is terrible sacrilege but I… don’t really like a lot of raw fruit. Apples? Bake them in a pie and come back to me. Pears? A little better but I’m still not super into it. Bananas? Talk to...

For this cheater’s recipe, you don’t even have to use a microwave. In fact, in the spirit of my IKEA assembly instruction foods, I’m essentially going to tell you: make a caprese sandwich. Only a little better. With More Veggies, you can feel More Healthy, plus More Fueled with carbs from the bread and protein from the cheese. You...

I bring you another cheater’s recipe! This one earns the title because you make everything in two pots/pans total, thus minimizing cleanup later. Otherwise, it’s SO simple I almost didn’t make this post for fear of being met with a resounding DUH. But I also made it recently and found that it kept me full much longer – and...

I am a mean baker. You should be so lucky as to have me make you a birthday cake. Current plan for my roommate’s: yellow cake, three layers, cream cheese frosting on the outside, crunchy Biscoff spread on the inside. See? Evil genius. I have also been known to dabble in chocolate cream cheese, pumpkin yogurt, and cheesecake fluff...
