I recently decided it was time to bust out some skills I learned in 7th grade Home Economics…homemade whipped cream! The only reason I remember making this one is because I giggled incessantly every time my teacher said “stiff peaks.” Give me a break…I was 12. And maybe I still giggle.

I thought the word “treat” and immediately thought of this sandwich. Not super healthy, but it IS super delicious!   Ingredients 2 pieces bread (I used […]

One of my favorite ways to come up with a new recipe is to take a classic dish and transform it into a healthy, gluten-free, vegetarian meal that doesn’t lose any of the deliciousness. And what’s more classic than Spaghetti & Meatballs? (Let’s all just take a moment to get the giggles out of our […]
