Food Re-networked Series: Lemon Cake (vegan + grain-free)

Food Re-networked Series: Lemon Cake (vegan + grain-free)

This vegan, grain-free and nut-free frosted lemon cake is sweet and buttery with a moist, yet dense texture. The cake batter is filled with fresh lemon and frosted with a lemon glaze that dries to a crusty shell around the cake. It took me 8 solid hours to create this recipe. No stops, no pause….

Food Re-networked Series: Classic Fried Chicken

A healthier crispy fried chicken recipe made with a grain-free coating and deep fried in avocado oil. Today is my first official day “back in the office” since our March 30 wedding and honeymoon. What a blur of action. I don’t have many pictures, but when I do, you’ll be among the first to scope…

Celebration is a beautiful thing. Celebration is a surrender to what is; a wholehearted appreciation for the present moment. Celebrating our lives, our bodies, our circumstances, our food, our allergies; everything that has led us up to this point, is our choice.

5 Ingredient Grain-free Pancakes (with NO sugar or sweeteners)

I managed to attract many a sleaze bucket back in the day. But Kevin? He was a gentleman from the very beginning with a charming swagger and hunger for life that I just couldn’t not fall in love with. We courted. Like, really courted. For months. I got flowers, real dates – tickets to shows,…

Cranberry Sauce Muffins (vegan + grain-free)

Like you, I’m not a fan of the gummy muffin. You know the kind; especially if you’re gluten-free, egg-free or vegan. The uncooked center, hard exterior – it’s anything but a muffin.

Zucchini Socca with Tasty Yummies

The last time that Beth from Tasty Yummies visited, she shared a gluten-free and vegan lentil “meat”loaf that wowed us all. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve made this loaf since – for dinner parties, potlucks, or on a lazy Sunday afternoon. The recipe is just that good that you can’t not make…

Good-for-You Chocolate Chip Muffins

I love bringing along homemade muffins with me on hotel vacations. They’re fantastic for snack or breakfast, can be filled with protein and healthy fats (which I always seem to lack when I travel), and even if they get squished during my trip, they still taste great. Generally I rely on a mini bar to…
