Instant Hot Cocoa - Creative Cajun Mama

Instant Hot Cocoa Mix

December 6, 2020 //  by Jenn//  Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 4 minutes If you’ve known me for some time, you know I’m all about reading ingredient labels on products. Yes, we can opt for just buying the organic versions of whatever we’re looking for. But, one by one I’ve become less dependent on pre-made, store-bought items. In the world we’re living in today, that might be what …

Berry Tea Popsicles | Healthier Cool Pops

March 26, 2020 //  by Jenn//  Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 4 minutes It’s getting mighty warm, mighty quickly, out here in South Louisiana. I wanted a healthier alternative to those corn-syrup-filled “cool pops” most of us grew up eating. Not only did I want them healthier, I really needed them to be QUICK & EASY. I’m all about simple, quick, and easy. I also wanted an easy-to-use …

Easy Peasy Basic Granola

Easy Peasy Basic Granola

March 1, 2020 //  by Jenn//  Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 3 minutes I never knew it was SO easy to make homemade granola! Not only is it wayyyy cheaper, but I also know exactly what ingredients I’m putting in it. You can find a small bag of granola at Walmart for around $3-4, or you can buy a large container of rolled oats for the same price …

Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

OATMEAL BREAKFAST COOKIES

February 2, 2019 //  by Jenn//  Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 7 minutes We love oatmeal cookies, but I don’t love the idea of all the refined sugar they usually contain. I also don’t like the taste of stevia sweeteners alone in a recipe, so I’ve created this healthier version of an oatmeal cookie that doubles perfectly as a breakfast item on-the-go. I took out 2/3 of the …

Power-Packed Granola Balls | Creative Cajun Mama

POWER-PACKED GRANOLA BALLS

January 9, 2018 //  by Jenn//  2 Comments

Reading Time: 4 minutes Why do I make my own granola bars? Have you seen the price of organic snack bars? Have you read the ingredients? Not only are homemade bars cost efficient, but I know what the ingredients are, and I can choose what I put in them. You know, like custom made. Most snack bars’ first ingredient …

CHOCOLATE SPREAD, DIP, OR SAUCE: 3 Ingredients

July 21, 2017 //  by Jenn//  Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 5 minutes Chocolate has gotten a bad rap for too long. What we don’t always realize is that cocoa, all on its own, is not bad. It’s usually everything else that is added to the cocoa to create what we know as “chocolate.” Cocoa powder is full of flavanol antioxidants, which can help with inflammation, blood pressure, …
