They say 7 is the perfect number and for this recipe, it really was! I experimented over the weekend and made 7 different test batches to get a great tasting and perfectly moist spice cake. I really should have named my blog “Satisfying Eats: The Grain-Free Test Kitchen” with all the grain-free and low-carb experimenting…
20-Minute Minestrone Soup with Chicken
My challenge this week…. to create 4 meals that take less than 25 minutes from start to finish. Be sure to check out my 15-Minute Creamy Chicken with Green Beans from earlier this week. Grain-free, fresh and healthy food should taste good but doesn’t always have take a lot of time, but it does require…
15-Minute Creamy Chicken with Green Beans
“Life is busy but you have to eat!” Well, that seems to be my motto this past year since baby Connor came along. Now that Connor is eating solids it seems like all I am doing is cooking, cleaning up mess and cooking more. Don’t get me wrong, I love to cook it’s just cleaning…
Grain-Free Snickerdoodle Cookies
These cookies are Easy and Delicious, sure to impress even your sugar & grain-loving friends! 🙂 I use a different method (I don’t roll the dough balls in cinnamon but actually add the cinnamon to the dough), but I know you are going to love them. Want to make these nut-free? Just use raw ground…
Shamrock Power Shake
If you have been following my blog for any time you know I LOVE my shakes! They are so tasty and packed with good fats, collagen and whatever else I can fit into my blender! To be a little festive, I decided to add some spinach to my shake yesterday and it was so good!…
Shamrock Cupcakes (Nut-Free)
Science Rules & Green Foods are Cool Cooking is all about taste and science! It’s pretty amazing how combining a few simple ingredients can create such flavorful dishes. This couldn’t happen without a little (or a lot of) science! By now I am sure everyone knows that baking soda or sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) reacts with an…
Real Vanilla Bean Gelato
No matter what time of year it is I LOVE ice cream, and I make it often! This Gelato was a delicious twist on tradition ice cream, and was the PERFECT accompaniment to my World’s Best Chocolate Cake that I made for my youngest son’s first birthday. Really, I could eat this cake & gelato…
Cinnamon Raisin Soda Bread
When I gave up grains over two years ago I also gave up Cinnamon Raisin Ezekiel Bread. I am pretty excited to now enjoy a slice of grain-free cinnamon raisin bread without creating the sugar spikes and the insatiable appetite I would get after eating the grain-filled version. Stay tuned for an upcoming post about…
Easy Oven Fried Wings (Ranch or Cajun)
Finger lickin’ GOOD! These oven “fried” wings are juicy on the inside with flavorful and crispy skin! Who says you have to go out for wings!?! For more wing ideas, be sure to check out my Parmesan Wings and Hot Wings recipe in my cookbook, Satisfying Eats. Enough of the chit-chat, try this yummy recipe!…
Grain-Free Irish Soda Bread
Some of my favorite types of recipes to recreate are comfort foods. Foods that bring back childhood memories, or tell a story about tradition and one’s heritage. Foods that you remember how they tasted and smelled, even though it’s been YEARS since you have eaten them. Foods that make you feel warm and fuzzy inside just thinking…
Lemon Poppy Seed Poppers
Aren’t these mini-muffins so adorable!? I promise they taste as good as they look! Don’t worry, the yellow color doesn’t come from artificial ingredients but from free range chicken eggs! These mini muffins make the perfect snack or accompaniment to your brunch or breakfast. If you love lemon, you’ll love these little bites of sunshine!…
Broccoli-Bacon Bisque
This recipe is easy and delicious! You won’t find flour in this bisque but you will find LOTS of flavor! I think the secret to this simple recipe is wonderful homemade chicken stock and a little of my Cajun Seasoning! I also love the beautiful green color… it looks and taste so fresh! Equipment you will need…
Real EASY & Affordable Beef Jerky
When I say easy, I mean EASY! Beef Jerky has always been our go-to snack for long trips but the ingredient list always left me hanging my head in shame! 🙁 Check out the ingredients in this popular brand: Beef, Water, Sugar, Less than 2% Salt, Corn Syrup Solids, Dried Soy Sauce (Soybeans, Salt, Wheat), Hydrolyzed Corn and Soy Protein, Monosodium Glutamate, Maltodextrin, Flavorings, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Nitrite. Contains wheat and soy….
World’s Best Chocolate Birthday Cake
I can’t believe that my baby boy, Connor, will be 1 in just a few weeks! It seems like only yesterday that Hunter turned one and really it was… he will be 3 in May! WOW! Having small children is more challenging and stressful than any job I have ever had, but there are so…
Bacon-Apple Pie Bites
One word…BACON!! LOL I know that sometimes food bloggers can go a little extreme when it comes to bacon but I personally think too much bacon is nearly impossible! Bacon is of course good with eggs, green beans, asparagus, beef, chicken, and pretty much any other veggy and meat. But did you know that it’s…
Grain-Free & Healthy Eating on a Budget
(Taken from my new cookbook, Comforting Eats.) So many people think that they can’t eat healthy on a budget. This is not true. You will actually spend more money on “filler” foods such as grains than if you purchased real food choices. Grains like pasta, bread and rice MAY fill you up for a short time (actually leaving…
Sweet Heart Chocolate Chip Cookies (Allergy Friendly!)
Wondering what to send with your child to school for their Valentine’s Day party? Look no more! These beautiful and DELICIOUS grain-free and NUT-FREE cookies will win the hearts of anyone who puts them in their mouths! Tell the teacher they are nut-free, but no need to tell the kids, I PROMISE! I have tested…
Fast Food: 15-Minute Fajitas
My FAVORITE meal when we go out to eat is Fajitas! How can you go wrong with steak (I usually get both chicken and steak), veggies, guacamole, sour cream and cheese! Of course I pass on the corn chips and tortillas but you don’t need those things when you have all of this goodness on…
Fast Food: Chicken Tenders & Honey Mustard with Sweet Potato Fries
These tenders and fries are really good. My husband and I enjoyed them just as much as the boys did. Why do kids (and adults) LOVE fast food fries and chicken so much??? Because they taste good, that’s why! Kids like traditional fast food chicken and potatoes for the flavor. While some parents tend to…
All Things CHOCOLATE!
I think chocolate is a universal language. Sure, some people don’t like it, but let’s be honest…those folks are just WEIRD (like my husband)! He really does like chocolate, but just the kind that really doesn’t have much chocolate in it at all! My theory as to why almost EVERYONE LOVES chocolate is that…
