You are going to want to get your hands on these Gluten-Free Pumpkin Spice Muffins, I promise you! Chock full of cinnamon-y goodness, they just scream “Fall!” And they’re such a big hit in my house, I have to bake a double batch at least because the first dozen seem to disappear before I even […]
Cumin Roasted Carrots
I’m always looking for easy, flavorful, seasonal side dishes. These Cumin Roasted Carrots perfectly fit the bill for the Christmas dinner I hosted this year.

Pineapple Blueberry Smoothie
It seems you can’t turn around without hearing about the health benefits of blueberries.

One of the toughest habits for me to break in adopting a cleaner diet was my one-bag-of-chips-a-day habit. Chips were my go-to comfort food. When I felt moody or stressed, that’s what I’d reach […]
Slow Cooker Mud Soup (Black Bean Soup)
The children’s book Mud Soup by Judith Head inspired my recipe for black bean soup. It’s the story of a little boy named Josh who befriends a little girl named Rosa. When she offers him some of her grandmother’s Mud Soup, his imagination runs wild with crazy thoughts of what might be in there. When he finally tries […]
