These Gluten-Free Pumpkin Dulce de Leche Cheesecake Bars are something extra special. I think of all of the recipes I’ve developed during my partnership with Pamela’s Products, this is my very favorite. And maybe it’s because Pamela’s Pumpkin Bread Mix is one of my family’s very, very favorites. Last year – no joke – when […]
Fall Apple Cider Chia Fresca
Years ago when I was living in New York, I discovered chia seeds. I can’t remember why I bought them, or how I’d heard about them. But in any case, I bought a bag and we started using them, and never looked back. There’s always a bag in my cupboard now. I hadn’t actually thought about […]
Cantaloupe Lime Fizzy Cocktail
Okay, I know. It’s fall. This totally screams summer…and totally not fall. Now if this were pumpkin, there would be no problem. But it’s still September. Our weather has been all across the board and yesterday, if you can believe it, it was just shy of 90°F. WHAT?! And today is the same. I love […]
Fall Apple Variety Guide
It’s apple picking season! I always feel like I need a little refresher each year on which apples are best suited for which purpose. So I put together this quick apple variety guide to reference whenever I forget. Which are best in pies or applesauce? Which are best eaten raw? I chose 8 popular varieties […]
Peach Muffins with Pecan Streusel
These yummy gluten-free peach muffins have pecan streusel on top for an extra bit of crunch and buttery brown sugar sweetness. Can we all agree that September has just about the best variety and quantity of fruits and veggies of all the months? Maybe even combined? We’re already (almost) to the middle of September – […]
Gluten-Free Gingersnaps with Lemon Cream Filling
These Gluten-Free Gingersnaps with Lemon Cream Filling are full of bright flavor. Tart lemon cream frosting is sandwiched between two gingery, chewy (or crisp, if you prefer) cookies. This is the first time I’ve actually been excited for January. Usually I’m like, “Ugh. Can we just fast forward through January, February, and March and get to […]
Gluten-Free Holiday Appetizer: Flatbread with Roasted Butternut Squash
When I catered holiday parties in the past, the menus usually centered around appetizers and salads. Those are my favorite party foods – always. And I think after all the sweets, people crave more savory party foods. I love, love, love using cheese in appetizers, especially for the holidays, for several reasons. First, most people […]
Tomato Juice Dressing and Vinaigrette Recipes
You may remember earlier in the year when I teamed up with award winning Natalie’s Orchid Island Company to create a new recipe using one of their amazing juices. This time using their newest squeezed fresh juice – tomato! And we’re making Tomato Juice Dressing and Vinaigrette 3 Ways. That’s three delicious, refreshing, flavor ways to perk […]
Roasted Persimmon Butter with Buckwheat-Teff Scones
I think I have finally found the spread to beat all others – Roasted Persimmon Butter. Over on Instagram, I mentioned that I have been buying persimmons for the past few years, but I never really knew what to do with them. I admitted I felt a little intimidated by them. They are very pretty, […]
Gluten-Free Buttermilk Pumpkin Pie
Like many, I grew up with the ubiquitous pumpkin pie made from the recipe back of the pumpkin puree can. It’s not that that pie is bad, I just think I knew on some subconscious level that it could be better. Or at least I wanted it to be better. I would choke down a piece once […]
