Gluten Free Rhubarb Muffins with Cinnamon Sugar Topping
Rhubarb is thriving right now! Well… thriving everywhere except my garden. Did you know salting your driveway in the winter can nearly kill your rhubarb?!

Gluten Free Vegan Raspberry Sweet Rolls
Out of everything I cook and bake, gluten-free bread recipes are always my favorite recipes to create. They are challenging and cause me to think outside of the box. Most often, they frustrate me to no end, but the perfectionist in me always has to work at something until I get it just right. These…

This gluten-free vegan bread is a hearty gluten-free bread I like to pair with a hearty soup or stew. It’s tender on the inside, and has a tight crumb. I had a really good day today in the kitchen. It is so therapeutic for me to make a mess, sink my hands into dough, and bake…

Dairy Free Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer (Vegan/No Sugar Added)
I normally don’t take creamer in my coffee. Well, at least not anymore. I used to. Up until I changed my diet and couldn’t find the right sort of dairy free creamer substitute. I tried everything from dairy free coffee creamers to canned coconut milk to any and every dairy free milk under the sun….
White Cioppino with Kale (Seafood Stew)
It might not be officially fall, but it feels somewhat fall-ish here in Alaska. The temps have dropped, the leaves are falling, and I have the sudden urge to make Dairy Free Peppermint Hot Cocoa (a stevia sweetened version of it anyways) and wear my goose down vest. I’m sad to have to say goodbye…
Mashed Cauliflower with Roasted Garlic & Chives
Several weeks ago I was checking out at the grocery store when the man behind me was inspecting the goods in my cart and says, “Wow, you eat really healthy; you’ve got a lot of produce there.” The man went on to tell me he owned a farm, which to my surprise was located within…
Slammin’ Alaska Salmon Burgers with Garlic Dill Aioli
I live in Alaska and eat fresh salmon from my freezer regularly, but do you think I have a salmon recipe posted on my website? Nope, not a single one. You see, I’ve had salmon prepared just about every way imaginable. Like most Alaskan kids, I’ve been eating it my entire life. My family has…

Grain Free High Protein & Fiber Bread (xanthan/guar gum free)

Dairy Free Caramel Macchiato (Paleo, vegan & refined sugar free)
Time: 11:29pm I’m listening to: Crash Into Me by Dave Matthews Band I still remember the first sip I ever took of a caramel macchiato. It was years ago. The whip cream combined with the caramel sauce made the coffee so sweet and incredibly rich and creamy. It was heaven, and I became an addict for…
Naturally Dyed Homemade Sprinkles (grain, sugar & top-8 allergen free)
I know some of you parents can relate. Since removing gluten and corn from my girl’s diets, they have not had the luxury of fun colorful sprinkles on their birthday cakes or frosted holiday cookies either. There may be a company that sells gluten and corn free sprinkles, but I haven’t come across one. AND…
Chicken and Mushroom Soup {dairy free & Paleo}
It’s 43 degrees (F) and raining here in South-central Alaska. It’s chilly, damp, and my baby girl has a cold with a fever. After an emotional week last week, Abbi girl and I were in need of some serious nourishing comfort food, so I decided to make soup using some of the beautiful baby Portobellos…

Raw Beet, Carrot & Apple Salad with Ginger Lime Dressing
Beets are not something I would normally purchase, so working with them was a new experience (but a good one!). After a quick search online, I found that beets are highly nutritious (especially when eaten raw) and contain antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification properties. They’ve even been thought to have anti-cancer benefits. All the more reason…
No Bake Rice Crispy Treat Granola Bars
The New Year has gotten off to quite the bang for me. I haven’t been feeling well for weeks.

I’ve had bouts of nausea, more IBS and digestive issues, chills,…
