Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness! I cannot tell you how thrilled I was to learn that my favorite gluten-free brand, Pamela’s Products, was coming out with pasta. THRILLED, I tell you. Pamela’s asked if I would be interested in partnering with them again to create a recipe using their new rotini […]

Peach season is just about here and I need to share the recipe for my favorite green smoothie ever – it’s called Mint Julep Sweet Tea. The recipe comes from Simple Green Smoothies: 100+ Tasty Recipes To Lose Weight, Gain Energy, and Feel Great in Your Body. This vibrant green smoothie is just what you […]
Sorghum Vegetable Salad with Cumin-Lime Vinaigrette
Fill a plate with this colorful Sorghum Vegetable Salad tossed with a spicy Cumin-Lime Vinaigrette – it’s vegan, gluten-free, and absolutely delicious! Well, the spring is flying by faster than I can adequately enjoy it. I feel like winter drags on forever and then spring is gone in a snap. As I’m typing this, the […]
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 […]
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 – […]
Strawberry Rhubarb Sherbet
This Strawberry Rhubarb Sherbet recipe, which I originally posted in the early, early days of Cafe Johnsonia, remains one of our very favorites to this day. I know we typically think of rhubarb as a late spring/early summer thing, but I’ve still been seeing rhubarb all over at nearby farm stands. That’s a good thing because […]
Two Refreshing Cocktails for the 4th of July
Monday is the 4th of July here in the U.S. It’s always been one of my favorite holidays – the early morning pancake breakfasts, the laid back lunch at the pool or beach, evening BBQs, and of course, the fireworks. But mostly, I guess, for me it’s all about the fun food and drinks. I’ve […]
Gluten-Free Open-Faced Smoked Salmon Sandwiches
I’m majorly in the mood for a late summer picnic! We have a great park nearby where we live and in the center is a great pond for swimming and nice little “beach” too. I picnicked there with my good friend and our kids before school let out, and I haven’t been back since. My […]
5 Amazing Gluten-Free Ice Cream Sandwiches
This post is sponsored by Pamela’s Products as part of an on-going partnership. I’m so happy to be a Baking Partner again in 2015! School started today, and both my husband and I are beside ourselves with joy. Ha! We had a great summer, but there’s always that little sigh of relief when we get […]
Mini Lavender Pavlovas with Summer Berries
I think the very first time I even heard the word “pavlova” I was watching an episode of Martha Stewart Living. Martha made mini pavlovas that she formed into perfect spheres. When they came out of the oven and cooled completely, each one was broken in half through the middle and a perfect scoop of […]
