Nourishing. Satisfying. Gourmet.
One of my favorite flavor combinations is chocolate and peppermint. This easy, two-ingredient recipe explodes with flavor yet takes just a few minutes to throw together. It makes a wonderful last-minute gift or a treat to eat while watching a Christmas movie. (Save some candy canes so you can make it again later in the…
The tart and floral flavors of hibiscus, chamomile, peppermint, and (optional) rosebuds or lavender make this stevia-sweetened hibiscus lemonade special. While I’ve been enjoying this flavorful drink through the cold dark winter, it will be even more welcome on warm spring days and hot summer days. It’s a lovely, antioxidant-rich beverage that will keep you hydrated…
This creamy, dairy-free soup is frugal and comforting on a cold winter’s night. Cumin, garlic, ginger, and curry powder all help give this soup a robust flavor profile, while the balsamic vinegar provides just the right tang. Red lentils cook up in a hurry, making this a wonderful last-minute meal. I love lentils as they…
This one-pot super creamy and delicious gluten-free mac and cheese is finished in less than 15 minutes. It’s so simple! My kids aren’t really into sandwiches, unfortunately, but this pasta dish is something they love as a last-minute meal. If my husband has an evening meeting, and I’m eating a dairy-free (THM) meal, I can…
This granola is gently spiced, sweetened with pure maple syrup, stuffed with goodness, and is the perfect fall breakfast or snack. I’ve long been a big fan of granola on top of yogurt, but my kids love it with milk. Either way, it’s delicious! We’ve also been known to snack on it plain too. For…
This low-fat, THM, yet delicious granola recipe is bursting with spice and pumpkin, and is sure to make your house smell heavenly while it bakes. I LOVE it especially on top of yogurt. I’ll make myself a yogurt bowl with diced apples (or whatever other fruit I desire) and granola. It’s a lovely snack or…
I know that it has been a surprise to some of my long-term readers that I now use THM principles. It was a surprise to me as well! When I was first introduced to THM, I was glad that others found it helpful, but it seemed overly complicated (just being honest, here). I also didn’t…
This refreshing, gluten-free salad is full of flavor with the punch of rice vinegar, the saltiness of fish sauce, the sweetness of honey or sweetener of choice, and the herby savoriness of cilantro and/or basil. It also happens to be one of my favorite meals right now. Not only is it delicious, but it is packed…
These grain-free coconut flour pancakes are moist, have a great crumb, and are delicious and family-friendly. I love them topped with berries. Delicious! They work well for those on grain or gluten-free diets, or for those eating keto or THM (they are an “S” meal). Coconut flour recipes can end up dry, with a poor…
