I stumbled upon something very delicious this week, entirely by accident. I had leftover blueberries to use up, and didn’t really want to make regular blueberry muffins. I also didn’t feel like any type of cobbler or bar. I did, however, feel like CHOCOLATE. I started thinking about the blueberry flavor combined with the chocolate…

Light Lemony Gluten-Free Muffins
When you’re in the mood for Spring, and it’s only 30 degrees out, what do you do? You bake something Spring-inspired! I love the flavor of lemon and the light citrus taste, especially when I’m tired of heavier flavors like chocolate. Sometimes, you want something with more flavor than vanilla, too. Lemon is a nice…
Healthy Gluten-Free Strawberry Banana “Cake”
I had a strawberry yogurt incident the other day. When I thought my strawberry-obsessed daughter would like strawberry yogurt, I was very, very wrong. This left me with a half dozen containers of strawberry yogurt to use up. Having finished the holidays, I am “over” all the flavors of pumpkin, gingerbread, and even apple. I…
Gluten-Free Pumpkin Cheesecake Muffins
Every Fall and Thanksgiving, I make sure to buy multiple cans of pumpkin puree. I love pumpkin, and it’s definitely a “Fall Flavor.” However, after I baked my yummy pumpkin bread (and ate it all) and made a delicious pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving, I found myself with an extra can of pumpkin puree. I wasn’t…
Gluten-Free Apple Pie Bars
This week I was craving the flavors of apple pie, without having to make the whole pie from scratch! Also, I wanted to keep filling my freezer with individually wrapped frozen, gluten-free treats for the Fall. Most of what I’ve baked and frozen over the past month is already almost gone. I also love baking…
Easy Gluten-Free – Cauliflower Crust Pizza
I love the riced cauliflower trend. Replacing carb-heavy ingredients for lighter cauliflower makes me happier and healthier. My kids aren’t big fans, unfortunately, but it does work for my husband and I when we’re looking for a lighter meal. Of course, you cannot expect cauliflower to taste like rice or pizza crust, but if you…
Gluten-Free Pumpkin Spice Bread
When the weather finally gets cooler, and pumpkins appear on everyone’s porches, I am ready for all things pumpkin-flavored (except for pumpkin spice coffee drinks; for some reason I don’t like the flavoring in those). As I’ve mentioned before, I try to limit gluten-free baked carb-type goodies during the week for health reasons. So, I…
Gluten-Free Carrot Cake Oat Muffins
I like to have gluten-free overnight oats during the work week for breakfast, but on the weekends and days off, I usually want something a little different. That way I don’t get too tired of my go-to breakfast. I don’t eat a ton of gluten-free carbs because it usually makes me feel too full and…
Gluten-Free baking – Mini Blueberry Banana Muffins
Gluten-free baking can be kind of disappointing when you first venture out into the gluten-free world. Some baked goods turn out too dry, taste a little off, or the dough is so sticky you get frustrated trying to get it to do anything. The gluten-free baking mixes available these days make things much easier, but…
The best chicken and rice EVER
When I want to cook a meal that the whole family will eat, this chicken and rice dish is what I make. It has some of my favorite things in it, despite its simplicity. Fresh herbs, citrus, and that perfectly cooked bite of chewy rice. The recipe comes from an old New York Times column…
