When Food Network first offered up their Fall Fest calendar, there were a number of ingredients that I was excited to work with…then there were a few that made me think: “What on earth am I going to do with those?” This is one of those weeks. You see, I don’t normally work with beets. […]
Guest Post for Dixie Chik Cooks…Sugar-Free Raw Vegan Pumpkin Pie in a Jar
When my friend Shea asked if I would be interested in doing a guest-post on her site, I was extremely honored and a bit intimidated. Anyone who followed our Ingredient Challenge Monday posts knows that, because of medical reasons, I live a gluten-free and dairy-free lifestyle, and Shea does not. So how am I to […]
Healthy Lunchbox Round-Up
Two months ago, as I began to prepare for the up and coming school year, I had an idea. Every year the struggle to fill my children’s lunchboxes with healthy foods that they will enjoy seems to become a little more complicated. This year, my youngest is in kindergarten. Couple that with a promotion that […]

Adopt A Gluten-Free Blogger, Elana Amsterdam @ Elana’s Pantry
It could be said that every day is Adopt a Gluten-Free Blogger in my home. As a relatively recently diagnosed celiac (almost 2 years), there are reflections and inspirations derived from various bloggers in most everything I make. I still consider myself relatively new to the gluten-free world and have no doubt that I am […]
Adopt a Gluten-Free Blogger, Amy from Simply Sugar and Gluten Free
Of all the events I have been honored to participate in since beginning my blog, just 10 months ago, somehow I have consistently missed one: Adopt a Gluten-Free Blogger. When Wendy from Celiacs in the House announced that she would be hosting this month’s event, I was happy to jump on board! Lucky for me, […]
Pan Seared Salmon with Fresh Peach Salsa
Summer Fest is off to a great start with some amazingly beautiful Grilled Eggplant Recipes. While I unfortunately was not able to join in on the eggplant challenge, I am happy to be able to jump on board with the next seasonal item of choice: Peaches! Succulent and sweet, peaches are favored in desserts, […]
Red White and Blue Sorbet Sundae
It’s hot. I mean, really really hot. Yes, I am fully, painfully aware that this is summer, and summer is our warmest season…but seriously. It’s hot. In the past few months (not weeks, months) my town has seen just a handful of days below 100+ degrees. We have had absolutely no rain in the better […]
Blueberry Sorbet (Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Vegan)
Blueberries. These beautiful tiny treats surely pack a punch! In one cup of raw blueberries, you will find a mere 84 calories, 4g of dietary fiber, and a great source of vitamin c, vitamin k and manganese. Blueberries are fabulous in everything from muffins to oatmeal. Heck, blueberries are pretty darn good fresh from the […]
Celiac Awareness, Memorial Day and my fabulous Salted Cayenne Roasted Carob Cheesecake (Gluten-Free, Casein-Free, Grain-Free, Vegan)
May is a very important month for our family. A month dedicated to Celiac Awareness, I have found many reasons to share why it is I eat the way I do, and why I participate in the blogging community the way I do, this month. Unfortunately being the last month of school, as a teacher […]
