You know what makes almost everything better? Remembering that you have a sweet, chocolatey treat waiting for you in the freezer. And when that sweet treat tastes like your favorite chocolate candy cup from childhood, but doesn’t hurt your stomach & make you feel bad about yourself? Hey, even better! Really, though – these mini chocolate cups will one-up any old Reese’s or Justin’s. Because the filling in these…
I have been loving bars lately, because they’re just so easy. Easy to make, bake, and grab to eat. And when you’re using Paleo ingredients, that “bar” texture is an easy one to re-create. Things like creamy almond butter, fluffy almond flour, and smooth bananas just seem to lend themselves perfectly to a fudgy bar consistency. Now these aren’t just any ol’ sweet “treat” of a…

Dairy-free, so the “cream” sauce comes from thick & creamy…
I went through plenty of dieting highs and lows when I was in high school (and beyond) – where I would bounce back and forth from “treating myself” to restricting everything I ate. Anyone else? When I was around 16, my mom found a recipe for some low-carb berry scones using frozen berries and oats, and it was one morning treat I just couldn’t resist. Knowing they…
First things first, let’s throw a few things out there: Potatoes get crispy in the oven. Squash does not. I went on a mission to make this happen– crispiness, that is. And I pulled out all the stops to get my squash ACAP (as crispy as possible)! The result turned out better than I hoped! Still not as crispy as you could get a potato, but an excellent substitute…
