Strawberry Lemon Coconut Cake

I made this cake for our Easter meal. I basically followed this recipe, though I substituted the raspberry jam with strawberry.

Reese's Peanut Butter Bars

I whipped up these delicious bars yesterday- they tasted even better today, after they had been refrigerated all day. The recipe is from here, and they are super easy!

Hasselback Potatoes

Hasselback Potatoes

Slice potatoes thinly, not slicing the entire way through. Place on baking sheet. Place thin garlic slices between potato "slits", drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake at 425 degrees for 40 minutes or until done.

Strawberry Banana Kefir Ice Cream

Strawberry Banana Kefir Ice Cream

1 quart of plain kefir

2 ripe bananas

1/4 c. honey

1/2 c. heavy whipping cream

12 oz. strawberries

Mix together in blender. You can either freeze in ice cream maker, or pour into a large container, stirring it every hour.

(I used the latter method- I believe I'll make popsicles next time so I don't have to worry about stirring!)

Enjoy!

Kefir Smoothie

I've been making my own kefir for less than a week. Tonight, I made a smoothie, and it turned out quite well!

Easy Kefir Smoothie

1 cup of plain kefir

1 very ripe banana

1/4 cup blueberries

1/4 cup blackberries

Blend and serve!

I love green smoothies, so I believe that I'll add spinach to mine next time. It won't be as pretty, but it will have extra nutrients!
