Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

Yep, I totally made that name up. lol! After hearing about chocolate cravings most of the day yesterday and then having D pining for something sweet last night, I looked around my pantry to see what I had on hand that could make a nice, quick and easy dessert. These gluten free treats don’t look like anything spetactular, but they taste great. You can vary the flavor based upon what chocolate you use.

Some days, you know that you’re just not going to have time for something like traditional gluten free baked chicken Parmesan. On those days, I made a cheater version in the slow cooker.

Slow Cooker Chicken Parmesan Recipe Ingredients: 5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 2 jars of marinara sauce seasoning (I generally use garlic, pepper, salt, oregano, parsley, basil.) shredded Parmesan cheese Directions: Place chicken breasts in…

If you use natural peanut butter, you may find that you need to add a little extra oil like coconut oil. I like to…

We finally found some delicious, well-priced strawberries at the store which means it’s time for the first strawberry shortcake of the season. This year, I decided that I would sprinkle vanilla coconut sugar on the strawberries instead of regular sugar. We all enjoyed that extra punch of flavor the vanilla sugar added to the strawberries. While whipped cream in a spray can may be easier, the truth is that nothing tastes as good as freshly made whipped cream made from heavy whipping cream. The shortcakes were moist and tasted great even when we ran out of strawberries. Gluten Free Strawberry…
