Where are my fellow Mexican food lovers??!! In my opinion, the best way to uplevel a Mexican meal at home is with fresh, homemade tortillas. Yet, I don’t eat gluten and it’s difficult to find non-gmo corn/masa. Plus, sometimes we just need a break from all the grains, you get me? That’s when the grain-free tortilla trials began . . .  A few months ago, I started making cassava flour tortillas (after epically failing at […]

It’s not every day a gluten free, vegan “custard” based pie turns out to be the most creamy, luscious, perfectly-textured slice of heaven, but my baking fairy godmother was surely looking over me while creating this amazing Creamy Pumpkin Pie! It’s challenging enough to make an egg-based pie not too gummy, overcooked, undercooked, or watery, but plant-based versions have their own set of challenges because tapioca and other starches can often create a “glue” texture […]

You simple need a small glass spray bottle, a few carrier oils, Vitamin E oil for extra soothing power + therepeutic grade essential oils (I use Young Living) that support skin health and smell beyond dreamy! If there are other oils that you know your skin […]

This frozen treat is full of sweet cinnamon, fragrant vanilla, caramel-ly dates, and is easily whipped up in a high-speed blender. It’s similar to this ice cream from last year, but doesn’t require you to order fancy coconut cream online. And I actually prefer an almond base over […]

Coming at ya with one final post for 2018! I thought I’d take a break from the traditional recipe post and share a helpful guide for making coffee at home – without an fancy tools or equipment. Cold brew is my preferred method for coffee because a) It’s less acidic than other methods b) Doesn’t require any sort of coffee machine  c) stays fresh for 7-10 days in the fridge and d) Creates a concentrate […]

I made a dessert for all the foodies who love peanut butter, frozen desserts, and ice/nice cream. We’re calling it Peanut Butter Golden Milk Nice Cream Pie. My apologies for the mouthful-of-a-title. To wrap your head around this dessert, just think . . .  If peanut butter pie and nice cream conceived a child, this would be it! But way, there’s more . . .  The golden hue comes from turmeric and cinnamon, so this […]
