yesterday was busy but successful! today, i wanted to do a quick post with one of my outfits from yesterday (i forgot to take a picture in what i wore for our photography session) and share two recipes that were both hits!
j. crew linen v-neck, lilly pulitzer linen beach pant, tory burch sandals,
lilly pulitzer "shell yeah" necklace, michael kors watch, alex & ani AXO bracelet, lily & laura beaded bracelet
i made this hummus last night to complement our italian meal! everyone kept saying they loved it so i thought i would share!
artichoke hummus
1 can rinsed and drained garbanzo beans (chickpeas)
1 can artichoke hearts, halfway drained
2 cloves garlic
basil, oregano, pepper, and parsley to taste
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth or to desired consistency. Serve chilled with crackers, pita chips or veggies.

i made a special sunday morning breakfast this morning since i was up early as usual! these are our favorite pancakes because you can choose any mix-ins that you would like and any syrup/topping that you prefer. usually we put blueberries in them but this morning, i made them plain and topped them with chopped peaches, Atlanta Fresh greek yogurt cream cheese in apricot honey riesling and cinnamon. with a cup of coffee, a glass of high-pulp OJ and some bananas and berries, it was a healthy and filling breakfast!
whole wheat pancakes
2 cups whole wheat flour
4 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp Splenda
1/3 cup egg whites
2 cups + 2 tbsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 tsp vanilla
cooking spray
- mix all dry ingredients together then stir in wet ingredients. mix well until there are no dry spots.
- in a large, heated skillet, sprayed with non-stick spray, pour 1/4 cup of pancake batter (i can usually fit about four at a time in our skillet). flip pancake when it starts to bubble (add fruit before flipping if you wish). repeat with the remaining batter.
- makes about 14 pancakes that can be frozen and reheated!
