Here's a holiday gift idea for you!

...Or it may just be an addictive snack that gets eaten within the first 10 minutes! :)

Spinach for breakfast....but not as you suppose....

Yes, I had spinach for breakfast.


I have learned from a friend to put a (large) handful of spinach in my fruit smoothies in the mornings...so I get an extra serving of vegetables--and I don't even taste it!

More apple recipes...Apple Cider!

With the cold weather coming in, I have been craving hot apple cider. Up until now, I've been used to dumping a little carton of yummy (yet sugar-filled) mix into my apple cider. Since I'm trying to avoid the extra sugar, I decided to experiment with my own. Hence, I have created (from combining various recipes) my own sugar free, gluten free Apple Cider...and it's yummy!!

Cold Front on It's Way...

With the cooler weather rolling in, it makes me want to make soup! Just tried this new Tomato Basil soup, with Grilled Cheese "sandwiches" (a.k.a. corn tortilla quesadillas)...very good, and it was easy!

Adventures in Coupon land

I just thought I'd put a little blurb in here about coupons...Seeing as I want to continue eating gf, I can already tell that this could get expensive. So after my last grocery trip (those groceries better last me a good 2-3 weeks!), I decided to get proactive.

Another tasty appetizer....Hummus!

I am working on spreading out my horizons and starting to make more ethnic foods...Indian, Middle Eastern, maybe even Chinese...and this was the first thing that I could do, considering the contents of my pantry. Simple and easy, but good!

Apple Butter

Can I just randomly say something about my freezer?

I think that the freezer is one of the greatest inventions in the world...if I had about 3 days straight to cook, I think I could easily do that "once a month" cooking. As it is, I have not yet been able to grasp this concept.
