APPLE FRITTERS

I’m honestly not sure what the regional distribution is for Shopper’s Food Warehouse…but this was my mom’s go-to grocery store (and still is).  And the only reason I even remember it is the doughnut display.  I mean HOLY COLOSSAL DOUGHNUTS.  No, really, that’s what they were called. […]

LUSCIOUS FRUIT SALAD

Once you’re known as a food blogger (among friends and family at least) you can never again show up at a potluck or barbeque with a non-dish. A non-dish includes chips, soda, and nonedibles (i.e. paper plates and plastic cutlery). It’s a bit annoying when […]

Pie Party Gluten Free Lemon Meringue Pie

The very first lemon meringue pie that our oldest daughter ate was prepared by her lemon-loving grandmother.  In their house, if something wasn’t made with mayonnaise, it was at least prepared with lemon.  Oh. Wait.  Isn’t there lemon in mayonnaise?  That would be two for […]

Chocolate Chip Banana Oat Muffins

Even if you forget to put sugar in these muffins, people will eat them (I may have done that once). Though that may tempt you, don’t skip the sugar – there isn’t much and it makes a difference. Perhaps some people (who are not me) […]

Maple Twisty Donuts

Need a crazy good holiday breakfast recipe? If you miss Krispy Kreme, you might find these kind of the same only different. The dough is not as light, and they are baked, not fried,  but they are so very similar to that Krispy Kreme flavor […]

Double Chocolate Brownies

My rich and fudgy grain free brownies are 100% flour free – meaning you won’t find anything like almond flour or coconut flour in this recipe! So what other ingredients can you make grain free brownies out of, you ask? NOT BLACK BEANS, you guys! Not that […]

PALEO LEMON LOAF

Lemon is so refreshing! When I start thinking about desserts for spring and summer, my mind naturally goes to lemon. It just seems right. I was a little late to the lemon dessert game. Treats made with chocolate, mint or berries tended to capture my […]

Individual Peach Cobblers

There’s an old Southern saying that if peach cobbler is good, a single-serving peach cobbler of your very own topped with vanilla ice cream and served just as the sun is going down is much, much better. This recipe for peach cobbler is a family […]

Non-Lame Fruit Salad

At some point this summer, I’m sure you’ve seen it. Almost positive you’ve seen it. The lame, hasn’t-changed-since-the-1980s fruit salad. You know exactly what I’m talking about. It has melons and grapes and strawberries. If you’re lucky, it has some kiwi too. I think it’s […]

Amaretto Cookies

Where has the time gone?  Seriously?  I know I keep saying that, but I’m going to say it one more time:  this year is flying by!  I feel like someone pressed fast forward on the time machine.  I don’t really have a time machine, but I sure […]
