Chocolate Pecan Chia Pudding

Chia pudding makes for a great breakfast or snack option.  It’s packed with healthy fats, vitamins, antioxidants and plenty of good fiber for our guts!  I love that you can make it ahead of time, put it in the refrigerator and it’s ready to eat when you are.  This recipe is one of my favorites but there […]

Paleo Blueberry Banana Walnut Bars

    These bars are gluten-free, grain-free, low in sugar, healthy, and delicious!!  They are not overly sweet but you certainly get plenty of natural sweetness from the blueberries, banana, and applesauce (not to mention that little kiss of maple syrup).  Because of this, they are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert!    Cut these beautiful bars […]

Grain-Free, Sugar-Free Banana Nut Bread

When you taste this banana nut bread, you will find it difficult to believe it is both grain-free and sugar-free!  It is not overly sweet like most quick breads but instead has the perfect amount of sweetness.  The addition of the applesauce makes the bread so moist and of course, if you love chocolate, the […]

Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies

I like the idea of having one “go to” cookie recipe that I know I can count on to turn out cookies that taste great and are a favorite of most.  This recipe is my choice for just that!  The big question however is, what kind of chocolate chip cookie texture do you prefer?  Is it […]

Apple Pie Crisp Bars

Any pie lovers out there?  I’m not raising my hand on this one because I will say, I’ve never been one myself.  I do however have very fond memories of growing up and watching (sometimes helping) my Mom make pies.  She was and at 96 years old, still is very good at it!  I remember she […]

This yummy bread is perfect for fall and would be a great addition to your Thanksgiving Day menu or to take as a hostess gift to your Thanksgiving dinner destination.  My family is not big on the traditional pumpkin pie fare, so I will be having several loaves of this bread on hand.  They freeze […]

Chocolate Power Balls

Power balls are a tasty mouthful when you’re craving something sweet but are trying to stay clear of sugary treats.  With the combination of protein powder, nuts and coconut, they can serve as a healthy little snack.  But be forewarned, it is very easy to overindulge in these little guys! There are so many different variations […]

Easy Gluten-Free Carrot Cake Cookies

As you may have noticed, these carrot cake cookies are gluten-free but not grain-free.  Normally all my recipes are both but I decided to add some gluten-free oatmeal for a little extra texture.  Therefore, they are technically not grain-free but could easily be converted by omitting the oats and adding additional almond  flour.  I honestly didn’t […]
