When I first started getting into blogging I read a ton of craft and sewing blogs. In fact, the only food blog I read was the Pioneer Woman. I guess I was in denial that there would be competition when it came to food blogging. I guess I thought I was one of the first…
Soft and Chewy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Hi friends! Welcome to any newcomers! I just realized that when I had my new blog make-over and switched my email subscription to Mail Chimp, it was never activated therefore hasn’t been sending out emails of new posts! Oops. I think I got it figured out, so once I confirm the emails are being sent,…
Grilled Cheese with Pesto and Tomato
Cheesey, buttery, white bread, grilled cheese. That’s how I remember eating them as a kid. Not exactly a health food, and they aren’t the easiest to light-up with the exception of reducing the amount of butter and cheese used and throwing in some veggies (or fruit) like this tomato! Although I love a good grilled…

Summer Memories and Chocolate Silk Pie
If you’ve read my about page you’d know that although I am a big fan of healthy eating, sometimes I like to splurge on things I wouldn’t necessarily label as “nutritious” and since the name of my blog is Nutritious Eats I have to preface things by saying this pie is not one of those “nutritious…
Move Over Girl Scouts: Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookie
I haven’t posted a splurge-worthy recipe in a LONG time so look away if you are trying to fit into a bathing suit by the summer time. Look away if you are watching what you’re eating. You’re going to want one of these cookies now. And you will make a batch and want to eat…
A Holiday Treat for Santa: Blondies
Santa works hard all year to make Christmas day magical for kids all over the world. He needs something caloric and high fat to sustain him through the night, don’t you think? Enter some ooey, gooey, fabulous blondies. This was my first time making blondies and I was shocked with how good they were. I…
