February 14, 2017

For some odd reason, I’ve been craving peanut butter lately. So, to satisfy my appetite, I did what any smart sweet tooth should do: I whipped up a batch of gluten-free peanut butter cookie granola … and dug in immediately….

Double Coconut Cranola

October 12, 2016

Help! My pots and pans are gathering dust – but for good reason.

Thankfully, there’s light at the end of the tunnel and by mid-October I think I’ll be in a much better place….
