Hi Lovely People! I want to let you know that I will be taking a break from this blog for a bit. Even though I might not be posting regularly anymore, the recipes and resources on here are still great. Enjoy your grain-free baking & cooking! :) Blessings, Lindsay

   I know we're a ways past Fall and traditional "pumpkin season" but I have a great recipe for you! While I was visiting family for Thanksgiving, I got to bond with my littlest nephew Z [he's almost two]. He saw me baking and cooking every day and associated me with the mixer. It was too cute. First thing in the morning two days before my trip ended, Z saw me, took my hand, walked me

   I am quite excited to tell you guys about this new sweetener I am using! It is still the sugar alcohol Erythritol, but it's a different brand and formulation. I Love it!    The company, Swerve, was so very generous and sent me a complimentary goodie box. How RAD of them?! Seriously. I was so excited when this came in the mail. I've been wanting to try Swerve for a while now and this is my

       Let me just start by telling you that I really, really, really like cheeseburgers and all of the various ways they can be eaten. And I can barely express how excited I was about having a bun for burgers again! Something that's typically lost when switching to this lifestyle is that there's no bread so you can't hold a sandwich or burger as you generally would have. One day I was

   I like chocolate. A lot. And this summer when I decided to go full-force into eating well, I was sad to give up sugar-heavy chocolates of all sorts. Even dark chocolate since it has sugar in it. You can't imagine my grand excitement when I found a recipe to make homemade chocolate chips with with sweetener I already use [Zsweet]! Oh goodness, I was so entirely excited to have

Growing up, I was not the biggest fan of peanut butter. I occasionally liked it with bananas. But it was a rare occasion, indeed. It just wasn't my thing. Oh sure, I could've eat Reese's cups for days. The sugar was the culprit for that one, though. But other than that I've not been a big peanut butter / peanut fan. And since peanuts are technically legumes, I don't eat them anymore.

   For as along as I can remember I have loved cheesecake- it's my favorite dessert. Don't give me traditional cake or cookies, give me cheesecake! :) Needless to say I was excited to come up with a cheesecake recipe I hadn't tasted before. As usual, I saw some various ingredients in my fridge and thought, "Hey, that might be good!" and got to baking. I didn't google this flavor combo or

Merry Christmas Eve to all who celebrate Christmas! I do- it's my favorite holiday. I have some of the best memories that involve Christmas time with my family. Love it. This year, though, I won't be with any family during this lovely holiday. But I will be with my wonderful housemates and some friends from work. Since I will be at someone else's house for Christmas dinner, I wanted to bring

Tonight was one of those nights where I just stared into my fridge trying to decided what to make for dinner- which would also be my main meal for the next couple days. I really wanted to make something simple, but something I've not made before... something simple with ground beef. Simple for me would be meatloaf. And it's flavorful & healthy. But I didn't want traditional meatloaf. I

Ok, I admit, there are days when I wish I could just eat a bagel or a croissant [especially a chocolate-filled one], or the bread at a restaurant- partly for taste but also for convenience. But, because I m dedicated to my health and well-being, I choose not to eat them. So on one of those longing-for-a-piece-of-bread days about a month or so ago, I decided to try my hand at creating a

  Who doesn't like cookies?! I haven't met anyone, have you? So needless to say when I found out recently about being able to bake with almond flour and coconut flour I was looking for cookie recipes. None of the grain-free recipes really stood out to me until my best friend sent me a link to a different recipe from this blog- Gluten Free Fix- and I searched for cookies. There it was,

Howdy! I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving. I sure did! I've not posted recently because I've been out of town. But I'm back and ready to get you some recipes and more great info. Onto today's post:   I love fried things. I always have. Thankfully, though, I don't really crave them anymore. But a couple weeks ago, for whatever reason, I wanted to try my hand at making fried onions.

   Some of you- ok, lots of you- have asked me what I eat if I don't eat any grains, starches, or sugar. I know it's a surprising thing to hear someone say they don't eat grains, but rest assured, there's life on the other side of the grain&sugar train.  Don't get me wrong here. Do I miss a buttery, warm chocolate croissant or oatmeal raisin cookies, a baguette dipped in olive oil, french fries,

       Earlier this week, before I could get to the store, there were several days where I was quite low on groceries. One of those nights I looked in my freezer, which held a few different packs of frozen vegetables, and decided it was the night to try Brussels sprouts for the first time ever. I had seen a couple different ways to cook them and decided I would make the bare-bones version of

   The other day I made a random concoction that turned out quite well... and of course didn't write down the measurements for any of the ingredients. So today I decided to recreate it but ended up making it a totally different flavor and also cooked it two different ways.  I bet you're wondering what I made, huh? Well, ladies and gents, I made a Mini Mocha Cake. In the microwave. Not only in the
