Ranger Cookies (Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Soy Free, Nut Free)

🙂 It is Thursday, just two weeks before Thanksgiving…one might think it is important, especially as a relatively new blogger, to focus strictly on traditional Thanksgiving fare so as to help my readers plan their menus well before the big day comes.  And I have several recipes I am anxiously awaiting the opportunity to share […]

Eggnog (Dairy Free, Casein Free, Soy Free)

What a great week this has been! With Halloween come and gone, it is on to my favorite time of the year. Autumn in West Texas is mild at best; mid seventies in the day, low fifties to high forties at night. Just cold enough to be chilly just warm enough to not be frozen. […]

Mexican Chocolate, Black Cat Cake (Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Casein Free, Soy Free, Vegan Alternative Noted)

🙂 Early Monday, a friend asked me what I had planned for the week ahead…Monday I had to finish costumes for my five children, my husband and myself.  Tuesday I had a fieldtrip to attend.  Wednesday, we had our Trunk-or-Treat at church, for which I needed to supply treats for our primary table, plan a […]

Hidden Eye Halloween Cupcakes (Gluten Free, Dairy Free)

This week we celebrated my eldest daughter’s 9th birthday.  9 is a great age, although a bit scary for both her father and I as we see her edging towards her pre-teen years.  Even so, she is still young enough that I can comfortably toy with her without risking total and utter embarrassment…not that total […]

Cheeze Ravioli (Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Soy Free, Casein Free, Egg Free, Vegan)

This is the third and final installment to this weekend’s recipe bundle…I am really excited about this dish and must say, it is one of the better dishes I have made for my family since becoming gluten free.  The fact that this dish is completely vegan yet still rendered a “WOW!” from my meat eating, […]

Seasoned Almond Ricotta Cheeze (Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Casein Free, Soy Free, Vegan)

Last night I posted what I thought would be part one of a two-part blog.  After an exhausting day that included everything from helping my husband tear down part of our living room ceiling to enjoying a barbeque hosted by my children’s school with about 300 other students, parents and teachers, and finally preparing our […]

Parmesan Cheeze Sprinkles

I have a confession.  I am an addict.  It is a serious problem.  No matter what I do, I can’t seem to break my habit.  Don’t get me wrong…I don’t drink.  I don’t smoke.  I certainly do not do drugs. So now you are asking what I might be an addict of. Well, cookbooks to […]

Easy Tortilla Soup (Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Soy Free)

As you can see, this soup is loaded with bright, beautiful vegetables contrasted with nutritious black beans and topped with just a smidge of dairy free cheese. But do you know what the best part of this recipe is? The five minute prep time.

Frozen Lasagna

As much as I would love to continue making posts every Wednesday, I do believe Friday is going to have to be my day.  Between school, children, subbing, church, Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and life in general, Wednesday comes and goes faster than I would have ever imagined.  Recently, I was challenged by a couple […]

Chocolate Covered Berries

Yesterday I shared a bit about the end result of my failed attempt to make a cake for the dessert auction held Thursday night at my church. Unfortunately, time did not allow for me to recreate the beautifully moist and wonderfully decadent chocolate masterpiece I had planned, but I knew I could not arrive to […]
