I couldn’t resist sharing these delicious treats with you before the long weekend. I made these the other day when I was craving some chocolate, which is an everyday occurrence, frankly. I typically crave a treat soon after lunch, and because that’s when I tend to do my recipe testing, a lot of what I…
Raw
Coconut Apple Cups (No Sweetener Added)
Creamy, sugar-free, coconut apple treats made with coconut butter, apple chunks, and warm spices. NO sweeteners added, vegan and paleo-friendly. This is one of those recipes that immediately jumped to the top of my recipe queue because it’s just that good… …and by good, I mean great, and by great, I mean you may have…
Allergy-Friendly Cheesecake (Nut-Free, Dairy-Free, Soy-Free)
My husband and I each have our respective cheesecake pig-out stories.

Merry Christmas Stay Fit Kale Salad (Grain-Free, Nut-Free)
I’ve never been one to comply with conformity. That’s not to say that I’m disrespectful of authority or my elders, but I tend to rebel a bit against the quote unquote rational, logical, and (typically) trendy ways of living…the repeated ideas non-thinking people go around spouting simply because everyone else says it. As a kid,…
No-Bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls (Date-Free, Vegan)
For several years now, I’ve been embarking on a new time in my life. I’m at this in-between stage of getting older, where certain things that I’ve previously enjoyed, seem a bit incongruous now. Topping this list includes activities like: 1) Shopping at stores like Hollister and American Eagle, stores I’ve always loved, but have…

With Mother’s Day creeping up on Sunday (the 11th), I wanted to give you procrastinators out there (me) 11 ways to both impress and treat your moms. Wrap these in a pretty bowl with some glittery paper, and your mom will swoon!…especially when you tell her the treats are healthy. 🙂 1. Thick Raw Lemon…
