The only thing I have to say about these bars is “Holy delicious!” If you miss those Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup days, this is the recipe for you. It’s so easy to make, yet it’s loaded with delicious, nutritious ingredients. These bars are perfect for the cooler, school...
Almond Orange Biscotti
I used to adore a particular locally made biscotti that had a hint of orange flavor and was generously dipped in dark chocolate. Alongside my large-o mocha of sugar and chocolate, it’s no wonder I battled with my weight back then. Now I make my own grain-free treats....

Orange White Chocolate Macadamia Cookies

I used to be a recipe addict. I would tear countless recipes from magazines and hold on to them for years in the hope that one day I’d make a delicious item that would become a family favorite forever. Alas, I’ve grown up a bit since then, and I hate clutter. So I...
Cracked Pepper and Chive Crackers
On road trips, we like to snack on crackers, salami, olives, etc. So I like to whip up some of these crunchy treats. We love the toasty onion flavor and the little bit of heat from the black pepper. These crispy crackers are perfect with guacamole too! CRACKERS ½ cup...
Nut-Free Granola Bars
Seeds are a great alternative to nuts, but they can get a little boring, according to my eight-year-old. She alternates between pumpkin and sunflower seeds, but she needs them jazzed up occasionally. The maple syrup and sunbutter in these heavenly bars give them an...
