Lemon Vanilla Puffs

These little cookies are like little cloud puffs in your mouth. As I’ve mentioned before, my hubby loves lemon. He asked me to make him some lemon vanilla cookies and this is what I came up with. They are little cookies that are cakey and soft. He actually hushed me as I was asking him if he […]

July 4th Ice Cream Bowl Cake

Happy 4th of July! I wanted to create a holiday themed dessert that was healthy and not loaded with sugar…..yet still taste amazing. Using cashews makes the ice cream thick and creamy. It is incredibly easy and fast to whip up, the hardest part is waiting for it to set in the freezer. While this dessert is […]

Well…hello there. How ya doin? This recipe is a veggie burger recipe that I posted before and have remade it to make it easier, faster, thicker, less ingredients and gluten-free. It is not only an easier recipe, but it actually turned out even better! I stuck with the same flavors, just amped them up a bit and cut […]

I’ve never been much of a banana fan. I can only handle small doses of it. However, after I created this amazing banana molasses gluten-free cake, it was the perfect amount of banana, without overpowering.

Curried Chickpeas and Farro (Oil-free)

I’ve recently discovered the Italian grain Farro and have fallen in love. It has a deeper earthy flavor and greater texture than brown rice, when cooked. Funny though, it’s less crunchy if you eat it raw compared to brown rice, but it has a greater bite to it when cooked. Yes, I tried it before […]

Well, I asked him what he would like for me to make specifically for him…he did not hesistate….”lemon sherbert!” Sherbert is amazing because it has the lightness of sorbet with that icy feel […]

Cinnamon Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Cookies (Flour-free, Gluten-free, Oil-free)

I have a confession….I’m a gluten-free junkie. I’m having such success creating my gluten-free recipes, that I may be doing most, if not all of them, gluten-free going forward. I have found the lack of wheat is giving me slightly better digestion and a flatter tummy. My all time favorite flavor is cinnamon. It has […]

We still have a few cool days lingering, so this is my last soup recipe I’ll be sharing for the season. I absolutely love ginger and had some I needed to use up. I was craving soup this past weekend, so I decided to make a soup infused with ginger and vegetables I already had stocked in my […]
