I often mix in shredded carrot to my oats and recently realized that I could do the same with zucchini. It's a great way to incorporate some veggies into breakfast. I like adding nuts to mine, usually walnuts or pecans and some hemp seeds.

I love to bake and to try out new recipes! I'm always on the lookout for simple dinners for busy weeknights. A lot of the recipes I post on here are ones I've found on Pinterest or from different bloggers, and that I've tried and really enjoyed, but I always reference to where I got the recipe from in the recipe description and the pictures are my own. If there's no source listed, then it's a rare recipe that I came up with. I have two wonderful kids and I hope to pass on my love of cooking and baking to them.
