Tried and True Recipes any time any day…
Since eating clean I have learned to make many sweet treats without sugar. Instead, I use natural sweeteners like fruit, no sugar added preserves, maple syrup, honey, molasses, or stevia. I can honestly say, most of the time I don’t miss the sugar. However, about once a week I have a cheat day and will […]
We are finally enjoying spring temperatures here in MD. I am not a fan of cold weather so I am loving these warmer temps. The past few months I have really missed walking in our neighborhood without having to bundle up and sitting on our back deck to enjoy the warm sunshine, even if that […]
Ya’ll these No-Bake Layer Bites are fantastic!! I made these Friday, and they were so good I had them for dinner which was totally not planned, but just could not stop eating them. 🙂 Peanut butter and chocolate are a perfect marriage and the fact that these bites are clean (mostly) make them guilt free […]
I used to have a real fear of butter. For years, I heard that all fat was bad so I eliminated high fat foods from my diet not realizing that all fats are not created equal. The past few months I have embraced the Eat Clean lifestyle which includes real food and doesn’t limit foods […]

We were matched with a wonderful […]
It’s Pumpkin Palooza week here at The Joy of Everyday Cooking!  No need to restrain your excitement 🙂 I have a confession.  Fall is not my favorite time of year.  I would rather be at the pool soaking up the hot summer sun than bundled up trying to stay warm.  However, fall foods such as pumpkin, […]
Don’t you just love chain emails? Â You know the ones. They instruct you to share an email with 10 people if you are not ashamed of Jesus, or share an email with 10 friends and you will have good luck, but if you don’t share BEWARE!! I usually don’t participate in chain emails. I really […]
Do you have 10 minutes in the evening to dedicate to making a delicious healthy breakfast? If so, you have to try these bars! Breakfast is so challenging at my house. My boys do not typically like the same foods for breakfast. My older son enjoys a traditional breakfast of eggs and bacon or sausage, […]
