This post is a part of Simply Sugar and Gluten Free’s Slightly Indulgent Tuesday! I really like pancakes. Almost as much as Sabrina, from “Sabrina the Teenage Witch”. Well, I may not like pancakes that much, but I do like them every now and then for either breakfast, lunch or dinner. This gluten free pancake [...]

This healthy zucchini spaghetti recipe is made with homemade zucchini noodles. I made the zucchini noodles in this spiralizer, which is quite easy to do. With four zucchini plants in the garden, I have enough to make dinner for my family (and then some). Local produce tastes fresher and contains more nutrients, so I suggest [...]

 Oreos have always been a take-it-or-leave-it type of cookie for me. When I went grain-free and sugar-free a couple of years ago, basically adhering to a Paleo type diet (with WAPF and raw food tendencies), I didn’t really miss prepackaged cookies. I can certainly live without them. However – these gluten free Oreos are probably [...]

Here’s a spicy, simply “noodle” bowl I put together for lunch today. In my previous post, I mentioned the top 7 health benefits of cayenne pepper. In this recipe, I use jalapeño pepper, which has many of the same health benefits, including raising the body’s metabolic rate and increasing cardiovascular health. Have you ever made [...]

  This post is a part of Slightly Indulgent Tuesdays over at Simply Sugar and Gluten-free. Truffles are traditionally made with a filling of chocolate ganache; however, these chocolate truffles, made with a center of coconut flour and shortening, can only be called one thing: a truffle. Not a traditional one, but one nonetheless.These sweet yet dark gluten-free [...]

Gluten-free baked donuts made with coconut flour This recipe is a part of The Nourishing Gourmet’s Pennywise Platter Thursday! These baked donut holes (and paleo friendly) are gluten-free and grain-free, made from coconut flour. They are a take-off from my Christmas cookies I posted a year ago, and are quite good for an every-now-and-then breakfast, or [...]

“The Dairy-Free and Gluten-Free Kitchen” by Denise Jardine I love cook books, especially those concerning individuals following a gluten-free and dairy-free diet. It should be no surprise that I after receiving a copy of “The Dairy-Free & Gluten-Free Kitchen” by Denise Jardine in the mail, I was excited to make almost all of her recipes. [...]

Check out last year’s post on tips for having a healthy Halloween Chocolate and peanut butter together may equal harmony; however, the traditional packaged treats are any thing but harmonious. Trans-fat and sugar galore – Halloween is scary enough. That’s why I’ve put together my favorite dark chocolate peanut butter cups, using unsweetened chocolate, a [...]
