Foodie Gift Guide

December 6, 2020 by Ariel Leave a Comment


Happy December, friends! The Christmas season is upon us, and I couldn’t be more excited! There’s just something about twinkle lights, Christmas trees, and yummy smells wafting from the kitchen that give me alllll the holiday feels. In my humble opinion, it really IS the most wonderful time of the year. 🙂

One of the special things of the season is being able to give gifts to those we love, just as Jesus gave Himself to us all those years ago. But I am a firm believer that gifting shouldn’t be stressful, overwhelming, or break the bank. With that in mind, I have compiled a list of 12 Christmas gift ideas that would be perfect for the foodies in your life!…

Vegan Strawberry Vanilla Cake with Strawberry Buttercream

February 13, 2019 by Ariel 2 Comments


Valentines Day is almost here, and I have the perfect dessert for your special meal. Enter this incredible Vegan Strawberry Vanilla Cake with Strawberry Buttercream. Yum. 😀

I’ve been holding onto this recipe for over a year, waiting for the perfect time to share it. And now, not only is it perfect for Valentine’s Day, but Seasoned with Sunshine turns three this month!! (yay!)

I’ve loved working in this little corner of cyberspace, slowly (but surely) adding yumminess and sunshine post by post over the last three years. What started as a love for cooking and a super supportive friend who urged me to “just go for it” has turned into a hobby and a dream that I hope keeps growing. And I hope each of you stay with me for the journey! 🙂

So, the bottom line is that it’s time to celebrate. And if there’s a cake worth celebrating with, it’s THIS Vegan Strawberry Vanilla Cake with Strawberry Buttercream!…

Quick and Easy Roasted Veggies

January 24, 2019 by Ariel Leave a Comment


Happy Thursday, everyone! It’s been exceptionally cold in our part of the country the last several days (cold equals -20ºF with windchill…!), so I’ve been making a lot of comfort foods. Just because it’s cold outside, doesn’t mean we can’t be extra warm and cozy inside, right? 🙂

One dish I’ve been making a LOT this winter are these YUMMY quick and easy roasted veggies! They are so flavorful, and pair perfectly with almost any meal. Plus, it’s a good feeling knowing that we are stocking up on healthy foods in the meantime….

Double Dark Chocolate Granola

February 12, 2018 by Ariel 6 Comments


With Valentine’s Day coming up in just two days, the stores are full of hearts, candy, and flowers for that “special someone.” Meanwhile, those of us who think a lot about food have had sweet treats on our mind… But sometimes we focus so much on dessert for Valentine’s Day, that we forget about the other meals! I mean… We still have to eat. 😉  Allow me to share an easy, [semi] healthy granola recipe that is decadent enough to serve for breakfast in bed!

You guys… I am SO EXCITED about this Double Dark Chocolate Granola! It is seriously SO perfect. Crispy-tender, chocolatey, not too sweet… And it almost melts in your mouth. Plus, chocolate for breakfast??? Who WOULDN’T be excited about that? …
