Potatoes au Gratin (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Vegan Option Noted)

I do not eat potatoes often; my body just isn’t ready to process that many carbs. That being said, Thanksgiving only comes once a year and these cheesy, delicious slices are worth a once-a-year indulgence. One of my favorite Thanksgiving sides, I am pleased to share these with you today. May your holiday be filled […]

Paleo Green Bean Casserole

Growing up, my stepmother always told me she was a horrible cook. The thing is, I loved her food.  Simple meals made at home are still homemade meals. Living in the small town that we lived in, there weren’t many opportunities to run and grab take-out or fast food and so that meant that we […]

Cream of Mushroom Soup (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Paleo, Vegan Option)

With the holidays upon us, there are some staples that one cannot live without this time of the year. Unfortunately, allergies, food sensitivities and auto-immune syndromes can often lead to feeling like we have to miss out on many of our favorite foods. Not so, I say! With the exception of baklava, there are few […]

Even with more than 30 days to sample all of the wonderful Winter Squash recipes in October’s Ingredient Challenge, it just did not seem like enough time […]

Share the Love with Vegan Carrot Cake Coconut Macaroons

I have some of the greatest friends in the universe. Really. So when my beautiful friend Shea from Dixie Chik Cooks asked if I wanted to participate in the Kitchenaid’s Pass the Plate event through BeBetsy, I did not hesitate to say ‘yes!’ even before I knew exactly what it was. What I have learned […]

Vanilla Pumpkin Swirl Cake with Vanilla Palm Sugar Glaze (Grain-Free, Dairy-Free, Refined Sugar-Free, Paleo)

This is not my prettiest cake by any means, and I thought about remaking it in a number of different pans, but my daughter was so thrilled when she saw the final product that I decided if it was good enough for her, then it was good enough for me. So many of my projects […]

Rainbow Salad

One day, my husband looked at me lovingly and said those five little words many of us never expect to hear: “Honey, I miss your salad.” Yes, my salad. I guess it had been a few weeks since I had made one of my nutrient-packed salads and my husband had a craving. Now if only […]

Ingredient-Challenge Monday: Pumpkin Spice Steamer (Dairy-Free, Refined Sugar-Free)

With cold mornings and a plentiful squash harvest, my mouth has been watering at the thought of pumpkin bread, pumpkin pies and more; but sometimes I just want something warm and sweet that will satisfy my pumpkin craving without taking a lot of time. This Pumpkin Spice Steamer is a delicious solution to those sugar-laden […]

Grain-Free Spinach Pie

I have mentioned previously about my visit to the Dallas Gluten & Allergen Free Expo in early September and how I had the opportunity to meet some amazing people and learn about some fantastic products. Among all of the new and exciting items, there were some familiar brands and some familiar faces along with them. One individual […]
