    Get ready to make your mornings so much easier and delicious with this simple grain-free granola. Loaded with protein and flavor, this heart-healthy breakfast can be made ahead of time and stored in the freezer for a busy week.

    I like to store mine in mason jars like these.

    It pairs well with some coconut yogurt or plain Greek yogurt, some homemade fruit puree and a big dollop of nut butter. Why not go all out and make your own nut butter while you are at it.

    Get around it and get your day started on the right foot.

    Hello and welcome, I'm Donna!

    I am so glad you are here!

    Since I have a part-time job, 3 little kids, and a love of good food (as do you I assume), I have learned how to get the most out of the kitchen in the smallest amount of time.

    Forget about hunting down weird ingredients and making trips to specialty shops.

    We are going to make the most of what is available at the store and farmer's markets all whilst enjoying some delicious meals the whole family (hopefully...if you have fussy eaters I guarantee nothing) will enjoy.

    Pop on that apron and let's get creative in the kitchen!
