I am in the midst of my first Whole30 challenge as a reset for the year and to overcome my slight addiction to Paleo treats. I actually make more than I eat, especially since writing my cookbook, but they are still very prevalent around this house. It’s only been a week, but I can report… Read more »

As the year comes to a close, I’m reminded of how incredibly blessed I have been to have people like you who appreciate my site and my efforts in the kitchen! It’s now been almost 14 months since I last had a flare of my ulcerative colitis. A couple of months ago I started to… Read more »

My apologies strict Paleo people, this dish for Baked Omelette with Ham and Gruyere, isn’t for you. I rarely post dairy recipes on here anymore, but this recipe always satisfies a hungry crowd, so I love making it when we have company. Per usual, I made this Christmas Eve morning when we celebrated with my… Read more »

One of my favorite things to do with my sister when we’re together is get a chai latte and walk around shopping at our outdoor mall when the weather is brisk. We bundle up and warm our bodies with the comforting spices of chai tea and reminisce about the memories it conjures up. We’ve always… Read more »

With a crisp outside and a chewy inside, these Peppermint Chocolate Macaroons have a rich chocolate taste and leave just a hint of festive peppermint lingering on the tongue. As with a classic coconut macaroon, these cookies use a single egg white, beaten into a meringue, to hold them together and create a chewy texture…. Read more »

I’ve made meringue cookies a handful of times and always thought they reminded me of marshmallows when they melt in your mouth, but never thought to serve them in a hot beverage until the other day when I made this dairy-free hot cocoa. As soon as they hit the hot beverage, they soften and turn… Read more »

I’m sitting in my living room, by the light of the tree, sipping on a mug of creamy, rich hot chocolate. Something I have not done since long before I gave up refined sugar, processed foods, and most dairy. I don’t know why I never thought to make it before now. It’s so simple and… Read more »

When everything on my website started with “Spiced Pumpkin” a few weeks ago, my sister gently reminded me that it was time for cranberry season and asked that I could create something for the leftover cranberries she had in her fridge. The tart crimson berries hadn’t even crossed my mind as of late because they… Read more »

My good friend George from Civilized Caveman is kind enough to come on over to my site today and share an awesome cookie recipe with you. I first guest-posted for George last year with my savory waffles eggs benedict recipe and we have kept in touch ever since. We talk all the time online, but… Read more »

  I know this post is coming a little bit late now that we are all in cinnamon and cranberry mode, but I inevitably have leftover pumpkin puree after Thanksgiving so it seems more fitting to share this recipe for “Instant” Pumpkin Ice Cream now! When the craving for something creamy and frozen comes on,… Read more »
