A vegan and gluten-free Single-Serve Cacao Nib Banana Bread Muffin that perfectly satisfies your sweet tooth in a healthier way. Remember when I said that I was a big-time Tuesday hater?

Happy Monday morning to you! I spent the weekend at home in Iowa and have a five-hour drive ahead of me this morning. It had been close to two months since I was last home, and I had two great reasons (among many others) to make the drive back to my hometown. Friday was my [...]
