Roasted Red Pepper Dip and Valentine’s Day Veggies
Veggies for Valentine’s Day! Let’s make it a thing. It’s not exactly a box of chocolates, but it’s kid-friendly and pretty adorable. Who can say no to heart-shaped vegetables? I made up this little tray for a kids’ Valentine’s Day party in under an hour this morning. That includes chopping, arranging the plate and making […]
Pumpkin Streusel Muffins (Paleo, Gluten-Free, Grain-Free)
It’s been a rainy morning here in GA today. Even the clouds know it’s a Monday. Though it’s pretty sad-looking outside, the rain has not deterred us from having a lovely morning so far. I am still on my happy-husband-high from a weekend away (at Chateau Elan, ooh la la!) and I will ride […]
Quick Chocolate Avocado Pudding with Coconut Topping
Raise your hand if you ate pudding cups when you were a kid. (Hand raised.) Raise your hand if you ate pudding cups when you were in college. (Hand raised- no shame.) Raise your hand if you still eat pudding cups as an adult? (I wish. Where do I find refined-sugar free, corn syrup-free, […]
Dark Chocolate Coconut Bites
Let me take you back for a second- imagine it’s Halloween in the early 90s. I’m probably dressed as a black cat (it was my thing). I come home with a pillowcase full of candy and start my sorting ritual with my mom. I would hoard the peanut butter cups and Hershey bars, and I […]
Crispy Prosciutto Snacks (Paleo)
Did you ever make a great discovery in the kitchen, forget all about it, and then rediscover it later on? This happens to me sometimes, since I don’t repeat many recipes, but I still gravitate toward the same flavors and types of food (I’m looking at you, brunch.) That’s totally what happened to me here. […]
Chocolate Bacon Truffles (with a Dairy-Free option)
My darlings, I am so glad to bring this post to you. All of that broken computer nonsense is over and done- how lucky and thankful I am to have a husband who can fix anything (thank you for all your help, too, YouTube- couldn’t have done it without you). And what better way to greet […]
Holiday Hosting for Every Appetite
Join me at MPMK today where I’m giving 5 tips to hosting guests with alternative diets, food allergies or other dietary restrictions. It doesn’t have to be a huge headache if you do a little planning. (Or it might still be a headache, but at least your guests will know you love them very much!)
Lamb Meatballs (gluten-free, grain-free, paleo) with Yogurt Dip and Spiced Vegetables
This new style of eating has been an adjustment. It’s hard to wrap my head around new rules for meal-planning and eating. So much of my day is spent thinking about food, and planning out when and what we’re going to eat and making grocery lists. I know it’s not permanent (I mean, I hope! […]
Roasted and Spiced Autumn Vegetables
It’s a miracle that I have this recipe to share with you today. Not because I’m busy, but because my oven is on the fritz! The ol’ Oven Love oven is breaking down on me. Not the whole thing, oddly enough.. the stove top is still working. So weird! And so inconvenient since oven-using season […]
Homemade Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins [with no refined sugar]
I don’t eat much store-bought candy these days, but when Halloween rolls around, I find myself eyeballing those Reese’s peanut butter pumpkins. I know it’s basically the same as a peanut butter cup, but for some reason, the pumpkin always tasted better to me. Maybe a better peanut butter to chocolate ratio? Maybe the eye-catching […]
