This Hawaiian-inspired twist on the Amalgam Kitchen classic GF School is In Banana Bread is golden, moist, and full of island vibes. While it makes the perfect after-school snack, here’s the good news—it’s just as much for the grown-ups. Picture coming home from teaching, cutting a warm slice, and enjoying it with a cup of tea—iced or hot, depending on the weather. You might even pair it with my Lemon Verbena Iced Tea. Kids love it too, but it’s especially a treat for parents, teachers, and caregivers.

This savory popcorn is a go-to in my house whenever we head to the movies. No way are the kiddos eating theater popcorn when this cheesy, salty, and buttery version exists. No one complains—it’s that good. Everyone gets their own little bag, which makes it extra fun.
