Gluten Free Carrot Cake Mix

I ran across this in the grocery store yesterday.The picture reminded me a little of the amazing carrot cake that my mom makes. Unfortunately, hers has gluten and dairy and I can’t indulge in it anymore. So I thought, what the heck? I’m going… Continue Reading “Gluten Free Carrot Cake Mix”

Carrot Cupcakes With Walnut & Ginger Topping

I love early Sunday mornings. For some reason, Sundays signify a special food day for us. When we were younger we used to go to my in-law’s every Sunday night for a family dinner and I loved it. I loved the routine, the family… Continue Reading “Carrot Cupcakes With Walnut & Ginger Topping”

Gluten Free, Dairy Free Burritos!

Probably the number one complaint we heard from people who were told they had food allergies and needed to change their diet  when I worked in the Naturopath’s office was how inconvenient it was. I would have to agree. It makes it difficult to… Continue Reading “Gluten Free, Dairy Free Burritos!”

All Purpose Gluten Free Flour

I cannot rave enough about this flour! Mama’s Almond Blend all purpose flour is made with a mixture of white rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch, sweet rice flour, and almond meal flour. This is my “go to” all purpose flour for baking, frying,… Continue Reading “All Purpose Gluten Free Flour”

Sugar Cookies

Frosted sugar cookies are by far my all time favorite cookie. I have a long list of cookies I love, but sugar cookies are always at the top in the #1 spot. You can eat them plain, or frost them, sprinkle them with sugar,… Continue Reading “Sugar Cookies”

Fruity Chocolates With Sea Salt

When I realized I needed to go dairy free it didn’t take me long to understand that there would be no more “quick” chocolate fixes in my future. No more grabbing a chocolate bar at the grocery store or stopping by See’s Candies for… Continue Reading “Fruity Chocolates With Sea Salt”
