One of the things I love about making almond milk is the nut pulp that’s leftover. It became a challenge for me to figure out how to use this byproduct. I created these “no bake” energy bites from researching a variety of recipes. They make quite a few, so feel free to freeze them! Oh, and they’re gluten free and dairy free.
I saw a fellow foodie on Instagram post a recipe using puff pastry to make a pizza, and knew I had to do it! This was so easy and really scrumptious! I used Fig Jam to round out this delicious, cheesy yumminess.
The hubs and I have been wanting to make paella on our Big Green Egg for months now. We researched recipes for what seemed like forever. Well, we finally took the plunge and made this incredible seafood dish. And, we had so much fun making it together! The key to making this dish is to have everything ready ahead of time. The flavor from making the paella on the Egg is phenomenal. We wrote out our recipe ahead of time and made notes while cooking. It was a success the first around. We will make this again and again.
This was my first attempt at no churn ice cream and I couldn’t be more excited with the result. The texture is just like churned ice cream, or as my hubs calls it ~ hard ice cream. The rose and pistachio flavor was amazing, almost ethereal. I will be making more no churn ice cream in the future. Using this recipe as the base, with add-ins, is just a little too easy!
I’ve had this recipe forever & have no idea how I came across it. I wish I could remember, so I could thank them – – – ‘cause it’s decadent & delicious! Oh, and here’s a secret…it’s easy!
This martini is summer in glass. I used some of some of my Fredericksburg peach haul to make this yummy cocktail. Its sophisticated, refreshing and easy to make. Perfect for a summer evening on the patio.
Just in time for your Father’s Day Prep, I present Crack Sauce. At least, that’s what my family calls this parsley based salsa verde. Hubs made this incredibly flavorful NY strip by grilling it to an internal temp of 148 degrees. He seasoned this puppy with olive oil & his favorite rub. We ate it sliced and drizzled it with Crack Sauce. This stuff is so awesome on beef, chicken, empanadas, you name it! It’s packed full of parsley, lemon, garlic & capers. Anytime I serve it, I get a ton of requests for the recipe. Enjoy!
International Falafel Day calls for a special power bowl. Pulling this together is a breeze, since I used Afia Foods pre-made falafel. I purchase this product at my local grocery store, but you can order their product online, as well. The chickpeas & carrots are lightly seasoned & prepared stove top. I also used frozen cauliflower rice, making this super simple to put together. Just put a bed of greens on the bottom of your bowl and you’re all set!

We love our iced tea down here, in Texas. The hubs usually does not like flavored tea, but he loves this one! It is lightly sweet & the peach flavor is not overwhelming. It’s just darn refreshing! Perfect for our 100 degree temps! Ya, you heard that right ~ we already got up to 100!!! My Fredericksburg peach purchase has been put to great use. Yummmm!
I’m celebrating National Donut Day with these Pride themed donuts. Every year, during the month of June, the LGBTQ community celebrates the influence they have on world. I love all the parades and parties honoring this community, many of which are family and close friends. Donuts + Rainbows = a super yummilicious dessert!
P.S. I used all natural food coloring to make the rainbow drizzle. Deets on the recipe.
