Lemon Dill Salad Dressing

If you like Italian-style salad dressings, you need to give this dressing a try! Personally, I have a big problem with salt. I call myself a salt-aholic–I’ll munch the stuff by itself and love every lick. I’ve even wondered (but never tested) whether I might process sodium differently than others and may need more of it.

Top 8 and Gluten Free Cut-Out Sugar Cookies with Aquafaba Royal Icing

This pair of recipes came out of the need to provide safe food for my family at two different events. The first was for Zax’s class Gingerbread Party.

Pumpkin Biscuits

And I was right! Not only have Read More …

Egg(less) Nog

Egg Nog. It’s a tradition for many at this time of year. I’ll be one of the first to say that I love the flavors, the creamy richness, and the decadence of eggnog. Sharing a cool glass with a loved one while bundled up in a cozy sweater is a quintessential Christmas feeling. I even Read More …
