Big news…I just moved into my college dorm! Exciting and stressful time of my life, but I honestly can’t wait for all the new memories and friends that I make.

Living in a dorm may seem like a challenge for foodies out there, but easy college-friendly recipes like this make it a heck of a lot easier.

This super creamy and fruity microwave baked blueberry oatmeal solves all your dorm worries. Cooked just in a mug and in the microwave for 3 min. Tastes exactly like oatmeal that you would bake in the oven which would take an hour plus….definitely not the case here.

This recipe is…

easy
simple
dorm + college-friendly
healthy
quick
flavorful
oh so delicious

When life gives you raspberries you make a dessert…because simply just eating them alone isn’t enough. I gotta say I have a sweet tooth.

Picked up a whole crate of freshly picked raspberries from my local fruit/veggie market and I almost ate 2 boxes before we even got home.

Paired this delectable & juicy berry jam with a soft and delicate almond base, crunchy sliced almonds, and toasted coconut.

The perfect breakfast bar!…

When I was little I was obsessed with strawberry shortcake…and I still am. It is not a typical breakfast food, but when you makeshift it into a stack of pancakes, well I am all over it.

These uber fluffy buttermilk pancakes are topped with a rich & creamy vanilla bean cream & sweet roasted strawberries. It definitely is a treat, but so worth it!…
