This pasta salad is a favorite of hubby’s and mine. The chopping is a little time consuming, but not too bad and it is SOOOO worth it. It’s also easy to substitute ingredients or personalize with veggies that your family enjoys. Our boys still don’t like too many ingredients mixed together, but we’re working on Read More …

For Zax’s first birthday, I discovered several frosting recipes that I absolutely love, and now I can’t make myself go back to canned frosting. I didn’t really make this switch because of allergies–the store-bought ones are usually Read More …
I always figured meringue was something my egg-allergic kiddo would never have–until now! Read More …
Even though I grew up with a severe tree nut allergy, that didn’t mean that I couldn’t enjoy peanuts. And I did enjoy peanuts! Perhaps not as much as my husband, but I routinely enjoyed lots of peanut products. Back in the days when hubby and I ate peanuts without a second thought, my mom Read More …
