Christmas morning breakfast-bites: Orange Mini-Muffins
Special-Ingredient Game/Foodify Challenge #1 Even though I don't consider myself a food blogger per se, a while ago, I was invited to join a Facebook group and have since been introduced to a wonderful community. My fellow blogger & friend Eleni Anagnostopoulou, the girl behind My Easy

Homemade Maple Granola
The original recipe for this crunchy maple granola called for ¼ cup of sesame seeds—I thought it was too much and decided to cut it down. If you find one tablespoon too little for your liking make it two, but I wouldn't use more than that! I also reduced the amount of olive oil to ⅓ instead of ½
