It’s been a while, my friends. I know I’ve said those words before. I will probably say them again. But this time I really do mean it. My last post was October. OCTOBER! I need to get my priorities straight here.
Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers
The amount of hot peppers in my garden right now is a little insane. I had the bright idea to plant Habanero Chilis, Trinidad Scorpion Peppers, Ghost Peppers and two Jalapeño pepper plants.

Sweet and Salty Homemade Granola Bars
In my last post, I talked about how obsessed I was with the healthy road trip snacks I made from Gimme Some Oven’s blog. Well, my obsession continues with these beauties. I love these granola bars with all my heart and soul.
Cranberry Peanut Butter Granola Clusters
Since we have been featuring a lot decadent desserts lately, our goal over the next few weeks is to post more healthy recipes. After all, we only have 3 more months until official bathing suit season!
The challenge of featuring healthy food alternatives is that we still want them to be flavourful. I always look to the experts in healthy, delicious recipes – Janet and Greta Podleski of “Looneyspoons” and “Eat, Shrink and Be Merry” fame. I love their cookbooks. If you recall, we featured their Peanut BETTER Gingersnap Cookies on our blog not too long ago! This recipe was adapted from their Looneyspoons Collection cookbook recipe. These pumpkin-flavoured granola clusters are simple, packed with deliciousness and perfect as a healthy treat.
