The blueberry muffin that will make you seek no other. Seriously the best!

And really, it couldn't be easier. You whisk together a bit of egg white that acts as a binder for the aromatic goodness to come. Then you add a bit of soft brown sugar for sweetness and a potpourri of spices and toss the pecans in. Turning them about ever so gently, the goo will pull between the pecans like cinnamon cobwebs and off it goes into the oven where it will permeate your entire house with a fragrance that makes you wish St. Nick was just around the corner.

Homemade granola packed with crunchy oats, slivered almonds, cashews, coconut, cinnamon and a medley of dried fruit that is sure to keep you going throughout your day.

A good lemon cake recipe is a very important thing to have. I found this lurking in an obscure corner that holds Tana Ramsay's recipes and it worked out really, really well.

Making granola is a lot easier than you may think! This Coconut Crunch granola is packed with almonds, coconut, flax seed, and rolled oats. Plain or with yogurt, it's a treat all around.

Forming healthy habits in the new year should start with healthy snacking. Natalie's energy snack bars are a great example. She says, "all that protein and fiber is why they are so filling and can hold over an appetite longer than a bag of Skittles or chips."
