Wolfberry banana bread pudding is surprisingly easy and super tasty. We had a metric ton of frozen bananas, so we made a huge batch of banana bread muffins. And, well, to be honest, we were sick of banana bread muffins about halfway through the big batch. So, they got stale. I flipped through some cookbooks […]
Grapefruit Curd
Grapefruit curd, I didn’t set out to make it. It just happened. The girls have a new favorite citrus fruit and, I’ll be honest…it comes as a bit of a surprise. It’s grapefruit. We got a big box of red grapefruit as a holiday gift and they went nuts for it. I really love citrus […]
Homemade Applesauce
Homemade applesauce is stupid easy. I mean, seriously. I know, I know. You hear that a lot on the internet or see it on Pinterest or whatever and you’re like, yeah, right… But, really. Homemade applesauce is like, the easiest thing to make. I used to make it all the time when the girls were […]
Delicious Desserts with Essential Oils
Delicious Desserts with Essential Oils You’ve probably noticed by now that I, like most humans, LOVE dessert. I also LOVE Young Living Essential Oils (learn more here). So it seemed like a no-brainer for me to start making desserts with essential oils in them. And then I decided to look for some inspiration for MORE ways […]
Paleo Lemon Coconut Balls
Paleo lemon coconut balls? Yes, please! Lemon + coconut plus done in less than 30 minutes? Oh, yeah! I am not a huge chocolate dessert person. I mean, it’s yummy. But if I get to choose, I prefer citrusy desserts. I love lemon bars, but I don’t make them too terribly often. I love these […]
Paleo Sweet Potato Pie
I big puffy heart custard pies (minus the gluteny crust). So this custardy sweet potato pie with a cookie crumb/pecan crust is absolutely perfect. The recipe comes from a great cookbook I recently acquired, the Outlander Kitchen Cookbook. The cookbook is based in part on foods from the awesome scifi-romance series, Outlander. The natural herbal remedies […]
Almond Butter Cookies
I’ve tried a lot of different meals for breakfast since going mostly grain free. This almond butter cookies recipe is one of my absolute favorites. And you wouldn’t believe how simple it is. The recipe requires only TWO INGREDIENTS. What?? All you need is an egg and half a cup of nut butter. I add […]
Maple Almond Cashew Butter
We almost always make our own nut butter. In part because I try to avoid peanuts and also because homemade nut butter is delicious. But we bought some healthy almond butter when we were on vacation this summer and fell in love with the maple flavor that we’d never tried before. So, I wanted to […]
Paleo Mixed Berry Jam
My kids are on a bit of a peanut butter & jelly kick (technically cashew butter and jelly). And we’re doing this pantry challenge/war on debt thing so once we ran through all the jellies in the house I decided to make some with some the fresh and frozen fruit we already had on […]
Banana Oat Bread: 3 Ways
You know I miss my bread. But just before I had to put the kibosh on the grains, I had these beautiful banana oat bread treats at a party at our house. They were amazing. I miss them. I even baked them in three ways: muffins, mini muffins and mini loaves. So much fun! I […]
