These banana macadamia nut pancakes are yummy plain or with conventional pancake dressings but when drizzled with coconut syrup they will leave you dreaming of the land of aloha. Just one bite will transport you to the Hawaiian islands.

A little bit of this coconut syrup goes a long way. It is rich and sweet and will transport you to the islands in just one bite. I use the syrup for breakfast on banana macadamia nut pancakes and I also like to incorporate it into desserts.

These strawberry-banana-oatmeal-buttermilk pancakes are perfect for Valentine’s Day {or any other day!}. The oatmeal adds some whole grain to the pancakes; the mashed bananas make them extra tender; and the mashed strawberries {or strawberry jam} provide some sweetness and a light reddish hue

HO! HO! HO! and Merry Christmas from my itsy bitsy foodies family to yours. This is the first year that my older son has really keyed into Santa Claus so I thought it would be fun to make him a Santa Claus ice cream sundae.

Lunches around here have been pretty fun lately because my son and I have been using our Christmas and winter cookie cutters to make edible art scenes. This is one instance where I think playing with food is perfectly acceptable! It is especially perfect for a cold winter day when you need an indoor project.

I still remember the first time that I tried a Cookies and Cream caramel apple at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory so I decided to make them at home. They are super easy to make. Simply swirl the apples in melted white chocolate and then dip them in crushed Oreo cookies.

Squash and pumpkins make eye-catching soup tureens, adding a rustic touch to the tabletop that can’t be recreated with any store-bought ceramic bowls. You can use the squash and soup of your choice. I found that lentil soup and acorn squash pair nicely together for a hearty, warming and healthy meal that is perfect for chilly days.
