admin December 29, 2014 1 Comment
Party Mix! Does it grace your cupboards and counters at this time of year? Or maybe it’s a year-round snack for your household. No matter what….try this new version for your New Year’s Party or low-key movie night. Original Party Mix is oil, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic and seasoning salt. This NEW version is slightly different, but just as tasty…maybe even more so! The great thing...

Cocktail Meatballs

I don’t know about you, but I’m not a big fan of potlucks. I never really was….you do not really know who made the food, if their kitchen is clean, do they wash hands frequently etc. etc. Then, when food issues came into play, I had to be careful about what I could pick up and eat. In a way, that was nice because I’d have good excuse to not eat something at a potluck if I didn’t really...

Pumpkin Pie: Soy Free, Vegan and Gluten Free

admin November 20, 2014 5 Comments
I have several food memories from childhood. Most of them are fond such as using cookie cutters to cut out Christmas cookies and decorating them. Or the smell of homemade bread; warm cookies straight out of the oven after walking home from school. Some of them are not so fond. The one that sticks out for me and was a defining moment has to do with Thanksgiving and pumpkin pie. I always liked...

Fall Fruit Sauce

I made Savory Squash Soup yesterday and it was delish. If you have not tried it yet, by all means….go, print out the recipe. You will love the soup even if you are not a big squash person. And as always, when I cooked the squash for the soup I had leftovers. I actually plan it that way. I buy a bigger squash so that I will have leftover squash. I was going to make Not Your Mama’s Chocolate...

Make Your Own Can Of Condensed Tomato Soup

Fall is knocking on our door and I’m ready to start making soups and stews again. In fact I made this stew last night and it was good. If you haven’t tried it yet, you should. One of my favorite soup recipes from childhood is a chili recipe that requires a can of condensed tomato soup. I started making my own condensed version about 4 years ago. I took these pictures back in 2012 and am just...

Pumpkin Chai Spice Breakfast Bars

I saw the stats. The Grab and Go Breakfast Bars were a HUGE hit! I had mentioned I was working on a new flavor. Today, it’s yours…. Pumpkin Chai Breakfast Bars. Great autumn breakfast, although I would eat these any time of year. But now would be the time to stock up on canned pumpkin as it is always cheaper in the fall. These are not overly pumpkin for those of you who prefer a mild taste....

Grape Soda – Sugar Free, Corn Free, Allergy Free

admin September 20, 2014 0 Comments
Can you believe I have not had a soda in a year!? I cut out corn and artificial sweeteners about a year ago, so that means no soda since they are all made with either high fructose corn syrup or aspartame/Splenda. (Well, except Zevia, but that stuff is expensive!) I never was a huge soda drinker anyway, so it really wasn’t that big of deal. But then…. I had a garage sale back in August. Those...

Garlic Lover’s Hummus

I love garlic. I use it in a lot of dishes. Today I made a Garlic Lover’s Hummus. Garlic is an herb with endless health properties. It’s good for the heart, blood pressure, keeping cholesterol in check, is an anti-fungal, may reduce the chance of developing Alzheimer’s and much, much more. Better yet, it makes food DELICIOUS! If you do not care for lots of garlic, then you may be interested...

“Cheese” Like Dip/Sauce

admin September 5, 2014 1 Comment
I do not miss dairy products. Oh, I did at first, but after four years of dairy free living, I do not miss it one bit. That is saying a lot from someone who used to consume milk, cheese and/or yogurt multiple times a day! That being said, I did try and make a cheese-like sauce. Not because I was craving cheese or a similar substitute, but rather I wanted something other than hummus to dip raw...
