Roasted Butternut Squash with Apples, Tart Cherries and Walnuts
Fall is here! Our weather has cooled down and my electric blanket is already getting a ton of use! One of the things I love most about fall is the freshly harvested apples and squash… and the baking. I probably bake more in the fall than I do any other time. I mean, hello Gluten Free…

If these Paleo Vegan Double Chocolate Protein Cookies look somewhat familiar to you, it’s because they are the chocolate version of my vegan, Paleo, and nut-free Protein Packed Monster Breakfast Cookies.

Gluten Free Beer Battered Halibut
Being the good Alaskan girl I am, I couldn’t let all my gluten-free peeps down by not providing you a killer beer battered halibut recipe. I grew up eating fried halibut, but my mom would bread it with whatever was in the Krusteaz package (you know the one I’m talking about?); she would make a…

I’m in shock that it’s December 14th. Wow! Where has the first half of December gone?!

Paleo Double Chocolate Mint Cookies
Rich chocolate meets peppermint for the ultimate Paleo indulgence! I originally developed this recipe for Paleo Double Chocolate Mint Cookies about 2 years ago.

Stevia Sweetened Chocolate Chip Cookies… grain & gum free
I did something I don’t normally do today. I told my girls they could eat as many chocolate chip cookies as they wanted to for a snack. 😉 You should have seen the looks on their sweet faces! They were so happy! I do not use store bought almond flour in this recipe (which is…
