These cookies remind me of the store-bought slice n’ bake cookies, but are more buttery and light. I like to gift them because they are festive, tasty, and easy to whip up! I feel like Halloween is the start of the holiday season each year, and these cookies are a great way to start breaking […]

How to Go Gluten Free Without Being Overwhelmed
I remember making this very Google search, “How to Go Gluten Free.” It was about three months after I had been diagnosed with Graves Disease. And for those three months, I was in denial that I needed to make any changes to heal my body. I figured the utter exhaustion, hair and weight loss and […]
2-Minute Bananas Foster
Bananas, brown sugar, and butter marry to make a dessert that is seriously better than the sum of its parts. I can honestly say that this is one of my favorite ways to eat ice cream. And I don’t even eat bananas by themselves! There’s something about the way the bananas meld with the brown […]
Copycat Starbucks Medicine Ball Tea- DIY Cold Relief
This tea is made from steamed fresh-squeezed lemonade, jade citrus mint tea, peach tea, and is finished with honey and peppermint. It is 100% my go-to for when I’m feeling under the weather or need something to warm me to my core. Earlier this year my SIL was under the weather and asked if I […]

Crazy Easy Chicken Taco Meat
This chicken taco meat recipe doesn’t include a filler-full flavor packet, but it’s just as easy and tastes a whole lot better! A friend of mine brought a variation of this chicken meat (and the fixins’) to me right after I was diagnosed with Graves. It was SO juicy and flavorful that I asked her […]

Bruleed Oatmeal with Cinnamon Ginger Cream
This gluten free, dairy free dish is certainly not your run-of-the-mill oatmeal. The warming ginger cream is used both in the oatmeal and as a topping, so you get the delicious creaminess all throughout. I’ll be honest. I put off testing oatmeal recipes for a long time because oatmeal just seems so boring 😩 I […]
3-Ingredient Crock Pot Italian Beef
This dish is all about elevating the flavor of the beef. The magic is in the method. Italian beef is most often my go-to when I choose to take a meal to a family. I’ve found this to be a bullet-proof recipe, and it makes enough to feed my family and theirs so I don’t […]
