Cold, rainy weather is an invitation to make Grain-Free Vegan Apple Cider Pancakes. So is a half gallon of cider hanging out in your fridge. But do we really need an excuse to indulge in a sweet, yet healthy homemade brunch? I think not . . . . The mix of cassava and coconut flour makes a tasty pancake that flips easily without falling apart AND no eggs are required! I also find that the […]

There’s no shortage of pumpkin recipes on the blog, however, nothing quite like these Soft Paleo Pumpkin Cookies! They’re made with the best quality whole foods, are soft and cinnamon-spiced, and pair perfectly with Fall drinks. Also important: they’re healthy enough for breakfast, or anytime snacking 😉 They only take about 10 minutes to make the easy-peasy dough, and then just 10-12 minutes to bake. A lot faster than pie!!! They’re delish warm, chilled, & […]

I used nutrient rich ingredients and sweetened with applesauce and stevia […]

My love for Mexican food runs DEEP. I mean ever since second grade when asked what my favorite meal is the answer has been tacos. And the best way to end a meal that involves tacos? Dulce de Leche. As in Mexican caramel. Which makes anything 100 times more delicious. Case in point, flan. I love that flan is lighter and airier than cheesecake, and that it’s always blanketed in a sheet of shiny caramel. […]
