Peppermint Johnny’s
My family has a history of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, as do most families living in the US. Heart Disease is huge in America. It affects 1 in 3 Americans and one person in America dies of a cardiovascular disease every 40 seconds. Actually, the problem goes beyond America: it affects most people in the world, no matter where they…
Frozen Chocolate Banana Bites
Frozen Chocolate Banana Bites This recipe is inspired by my friend and her family as they are OBSESSED with Banana Babies (those mini chocolate covered bananas on a stick).

You cannot even detect the slightest hint of black bean AND the best part is that it’s practically all healthy for you. When I tell people about these brownies, they ask “what’s the point? Why not just have a brownie if you want…

What’s Up Choc?! (Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies)
What’s Up Choc?! Special thanks to Heidi Johnson for this delicious recipe packed with vitamin A! Heidi’s idea of adding carrots instead of oil is ingenious. Typically, applesauce replaces the oil to make “healthier” recipes, however carrots contain many more nutrients, and their taste is undetectable in these cookies which will make it a favorite with kids!…
