Poached Eggs over Garlic Butter Amaranth
When I think of comfort food, poached eggs and anything that include butter and garlic are high on that list. Eggs get a bad rep, because a few years ago it was believed that there was a link between the consumption of cholesterol and it’s effect on your blood cholesterol levels, and in turn your

Vegan Quiche

Banana Bread Oatmeal
Banana bread is one of my favorite breakfasts. Though, I feel like maybe I should admit that I also require my banana bread to include chocolate. Either I smear it with nutella, or load up the batter with chocolate chips. Either way, I think chocolate is never a bad way to start the day. I
