These Sweet and Smoky Roasted Carrots and Apples with Bacon are special enough to serve for Thanksgiving or Christmas, but deliciously addicting enough to eat ALL year round. This season, I’ve already made them twice. And I’m planning on making them again. Considering how busy this time of year is, that’s saying something. Believe me, if […]
Side Dishes
Easy Goat Cheese Spinach-Artichoke Dip
Roughly 50% of my diet in college was made up of spinach-artichoke dip. Seriously. And it usually came from chain restaurants that likely didn’t serve spinach in any other form on the menu. But I digress. I still adore spinach-artichoke dip, but I’m convinced that eating a homemade, dairy-friendly (goat cheese instead of conventional dairy) […]
Gluten-Free Italian Sausage and Cornbread Stuffing
Thanksgiving turkey is great and all, but if you were anything like me growing up (aka little Debbie, lover of all things where bread is involved), the stuffing is really where it’s at. And this Gluten-Free Italian Sausage and Cornbread Stuffing is the perfect melding of all those delicious Thanksgiving flavors, in an allergen-friendly package […]
Gluten-Free Italian Breadsticks with Homemade Pesto
Gluten-Free Italian Breadsticks with Homemade Pesto are the quintessential Italian restaurant-style breadsticks you’ve been missing in your life. With a crisp, doughy texture and notes of garlic and basil throughout, these breadsticks pair perfectly with my grain-free Italian Sausage Bowls or chicken parmesan. And that homemade pesto on top? Icing on the cake. One of the […]
Grain-Free Almond Flour & Herb Biscuits
These Grain-Free Almond Flour & Herb Biscuits are pretty magical. Soft, savory, and buttery, I’ve made them more times than I can count. They started as a Thanksgiving tradition (I just had to find an alternative for those delicious and sweet Hawaiian rolls we always had on our table), but now they’ve become an easy staple […]
Instant Pot Moroccan-Spiced Rice
Making rice in an Instant Pot is a magical thing. It comes out incredibly flavorful, perfectly textured, and doesn’t require much time or effort at all. You certainly could use a rice cooker for the job, but in my book, having ONE appliance that does the work of 7 is the way to go. And this […]
Gluten-Free Pear, Hazelnut, & Goat Cheese Flatbread (w/ Namaste Foods)
This Gluten-Free Pear, Hazelnut, & Goat Cheese Flatbread is a dream come true if you love all things crunchy, savory, and sweet. And bread. And cheese. And pizza-like foods. And you want a gluten-free option that you don’t feel incredibly guilty about devouring. Or you just want a little pizza-like indulgence for a Friday night […]
Roasted Brussels Sprouts With Pine Nuts and Garlic
I’m convinced that brussels sprouts haters just need to turn on their oven and get out a cookie sheet. And these Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Pine Nuts and Garlic may be the way to convert even the most passionate brussels sprouts despisers to fanboys or fangirls. I’ve hailed the transformative power of roasting veggies before (see my […]
