Does anyone remember these? I posted them YEARS ago and called these “Tortured Strawberries” It’s a chocolate covered strawberry dipped in marshmallow fluff AND THEN TOASTED WITH A TORCH.

These gluten-free berry hand pies are like a miniature, portable version of those. AND they’re made with my Perfect Gluten-Free Pie Crust. (In case you’re …

Remember when I asked you guys if you wanted a Valentine’s treat or easy dinner ideas and you said “EASY DINNER IDEAS!” and then I posted some gorgeous beet brownie bowls which would have been perfect for Valentine’s Day, but I didn’t even get the post up until AFTER Valentine’s Day? *facepalm*

Steve and I went to New York the first week of July and ate ourselves silly. We made a few trips to the gelato stands, and I totally fell in love with the pistachio gelato. I had to come home and make a cleaned-up Dairy Free Pistachio Ice Cream. (Or “mustachio”, like my 3-year-old calls …
Today is a great day, my friends. Steve and I are leaving on a red-eye to New York City tonight to spend a few days there for an early anniversary getaway. I can’t tell you how excited I am. Summertime takes it toll on me REALLY quickly since I’m not one of those moms who …
I can’t tell you how excited I am about these paleo cookies. AND the cookbook it came from. Normally I’m not a huge fan of paleo chocolate chip cookies because the texture is usually way off, which makes me sad — particularly because chocolate chip cookies are my favorite. This recipe is super, though — …
I’ve been on a quasi keto kick lately and dabbling in some low-carb dessert action. (Mostly eating keto chocolate. Thanks Lily’s.)
