Homemade Mint Chocolate Bars Recipe- Paleo, Refined Sugar Free, Vegan Option
I absolutely adore mint combined with chocolate, but the problem is that mint chocolate combinations are usually very sugar heavy, dairy, and not necessarily what I should be eating if I’m trying to lose weight or in general eat more healthily. However, I threw together this recipe the other day, and it was an unexpected […]
Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites Recipe- Refined Sugar Free, Vegan Option
I’m a sucker for dessert- I sometimes really crave something sweet and yummy, and not just a fruit. The problem is that desserts usually fall in one of two categories- cheap and unhealthy, or healthy and expensive. (Ok, three- there are also expensive unhealthy desserts.) So when I’m trying to save money, I make desserts […]
Homemade Gluten Free Donut Recipe- Vegan and Refined Sugar Free Options
My kids have been asking me to make them donuts, and, though I haven’t made them in a while, the other day I finally got around to making them again. The thing is, though, that I needed to find a recipe that would work for us- I had one recipe using chickpea flour which I […]
Curried Carrots and Radishes Recipe- Vegan, Paleo
For the most part I’d say my kids aren’t picky eaters, but one of my kids refuses to eat any zucchini and most refuse to eat the following veggies cooked: tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, greens, mushrooms, etc… so when I am trying to come up with ideas of cooked veggie dishes, I’m somewhat limited. I was […]
Homemade Gluten Free Naan Bread Recipe- Vegan, Refined Sugar Free
Gluten free naan, persimmon chutney, radish and carrot curry, and curried chicken.

Corn Flake Covered Baked Tuna Balls Recipe- Gluten Free, Egg Free
Once upon a time, before I had Pinterest, I would clip recipes from magazines and use them to get great ideas of dishes to serve to my family. I had a little bag where I would keep these clippings, and when I moved to my new apartment, I think that bag of recipe clippings didn’t […]
Homemade Quinoa Pizza Crust Recipe- Gluten Free, Vegan, No Flour Needed
My family is doing a bit of a pantry challenge right now, since I realized that my stockpile was really full of some stuff that I just wasn’t getting around to using, so now I’m trying to use those up. I had a bunch of quinoa that I bought at a terrific price on sale, […]
Paleo Chicken Mole Recipe- Vegan Option, Refined Sugar Free, GAPS Legal
I had another recipe that I’d planned on sharing with you today, but then I made chicken mole (pronounced “moe lay”) and it was just so finger licking good that I couldn’t wait to share it with you, so I bumped it to the head of the line. Mole is a Mexican dish that literally […]
Raw Carrot Salad With Creamy Lemon Ginger Dressing Recipe- Paleo, Vegan, Allergy Friendly, Sugar Free
Have I mentioned I’m a big fan of salads? Ok, only probably a million and a half times, but it’s worth repeating, nay? I was trying to come up with a salad idea that was using frugal seasonal ingredients- specifically carrots- that was a bit different than the standard salad that I make, and so […]
Paleo Thai Style Multicolor Raw Vegetable Salad Recipe- Vegan, GAPS Legal
Winter is here finally, but you know what? Though most of the time I crave hot and thick soups and stews once it is cold, this time, what I’m really craving is creamy vegetables, ideally raw vegetables with something on them that makes them creamy. I was looking for ideas of what to make with […]
