Vegan Marshmallows

Does anyone else miss the sticky gooyness of marshmallows in the summertime?  I grew up both camping with my family and as a girl scout where treats made with marshmallows usually cooked over a campfire were a big treat.  Normally I don’t like overly sweet foods but there’s something about both s’mores and banana boats [ READ MORE ]

Guacamole

This summer I have been on a huge avocado kick.  I’m giving into my craving because they are so incredibly healthy.  Some of the benefits of eating avocado include a high fiber content, they’re a great source of vitamin E, folate, and potassium.  They are considered beneficial for lowering cholesterol, overall heart health, eye health [ READ MORE ]

Spinach Pie

Fettucini Alfredo

This recipe is a slightly lightened up version of the classic favorite.  It’s not a low calorie version but I cut a few corners while maintaining a rich and creamy texture.  The original recipe was one from Emeril Lagasse but I wanted a lighter creamier sauce so I made a few changes. I add some [ READ MORE ]

Mmmm, Mondel Brodt

Better known by my friends as Jewish Biscotti, Mondel Brodt is a quick easy dessert or treat that everyone loves.  I made this particular batch with the idea of freezing it for Christmas week.  I already need a new plan as the majority of it was eaten the first day!  The best part of this [ READ MORE ]
