Who says you have to eat soup in a bowl!?! I will take this soup in a pot, in a cup, in a bowl, and maybe in a boot it is so good! If you have been too intimidated to make my Grain-Free Chicken Pot Pie then this soup is for you!! Maybe after you…

Cinnamon Bread (Grain-Free, Nut-Free, Sugar-Free & Low-Carb)
Cinnamon bread…. YUM! Creating this recipe reminds me of the Cinnamon Raisin Ezekiel Bread that I used to eat thinking I was being healthy! Even though Ezekiel bread is made from sprouted grains, supposedly making the grains easier to digest, I couldn’t stop eating it! Literally, 3 or 4 pieces at a time and I…
Banana Bread (Nut-Free) & My Tips for Success
It’s been almost 2 years ago since I stumbled upon the book Wheat Belly, and quit grains and added sugar overnight! (Read my full story HERE). Everything that I was reading made sense, but I wondered how I could ever completely go without a piece of bread or cake again. I tried a few recipes with…
Banana Split Ice Cream
Who doesn’t love ice cream?? Come on, name one person who doesn’t??? 😉 So giving away the machine needed to create the GREATEST treat EVER was a NO-Brainer! But before I announce the winners, l wanted to share my latest ice cream creation. About Ice Cream Makers I used my compressor ice cream maker and I…
New-tella Chocolate Hazelnut Butter
My first experience with Nutella happened about 5 years ago. The container below is the first and last jar I ever purchased. I had heard others talk about how good it was and I had seen the commercial stating it was made with “hazelnuts, skim milk and a touch of cocoa.” Sounds good, right??? Oh,…
REAL Watermelon Snow Cones (Granita)
This is the PERFECT thing to eat on days like today in Louisiana! After making the REAL Watermelon Jell-O a few weeks ago, I still had leftover watermelon in the fridge. Last year I bought a cheap snow cone maker and paper cones to experiment with making a substitute to the sugar laden syrup you purchase at the…
Yummy Ice Cream Sandwich
Happy National Ice Cream Sandwich Day! I know, I know, it’s getting a little crazy with all of these National Holidays! National holidays only really count when you get the day off with pay! lol (Mom’s never get days off!) This is my version of the yummy treat! Nothing new in terms of recipes, but…
German Chocolate Cake (Grain-Free)
Four months ago (and 9 months pregnant), I began to work on this recipe. Apparently I teased many of you with the thought and picture of this recipe! I apologize! 😉 I promise it was worth the wait. At last, I am posting MY version of German Chocolate Cake! This is basically two cakes in one….
REAL Watermelon Jell-O
Summer is here!! In Louisiana that means heat, humidity and Watermelons!! Washington Parish has some of the sweetest! (Yes, Louisiana has parishes not counties… weird I know)! Watermelon is one of my favorites, and I always anxiously await its arrival every Summer! Unfortunately, I could eat my weight in watermelon, so I often skip out…
Pecan Pie Ice Cream and Ice Cream Maker Giveaway
This is so exciting! I can’t believe how fast Satisfying Eats is growing and how far it is spreading across the Globe!! I never thought people all over the United States and Canada, the UK, or as far away as Australia would be making my recipes and buying my cookbook and THAT my friends, is…
Watermelon Popsicles
I love watermelon but I find myself overeating it when given the opportunity! My solution?? Make popsicles! This is a great way to use up any extra watermelon so you don’t feel pressured to eat it all so hat it’s not wasted. This is a “No-Recipe, Recipe” meaning you could do this with any fruit or…
Fourth of July Cupcakes (The BEST Cupcakes EVER!)
This is not a new recipe but it is a great one! These cupcakes are my FAVORITE and I actually prefer the dairy-free version using coconut milk and coconut oil. The slight coconut taste makes these a big hit! When selling foods at the Farmer’s Market, everyone LOVED these tiny treats! To check sweetness of…
Flavored Coconut Milks
I haven’t bought almond milk in over 2 months now. Really not a whole lot of nutrients in it and lots of other ingredients that I don’t want to consume! Trying to simplify my “diet” right now! I have really enjoyed making my own homemade coconut milk and using it to create these naturally flavored Coconut…
Easy Chocolate Truffles (Dairy-Free)
When I think about these truffles, I begin to sing “A teaspoon of sugar helps the medicine go down…” Why you ask??? Because each of these yummy cholatey treats contain almost 1 tbsp of coconut oil! I am so glad I ordered coconut cream concentrate a few weeks ago. I already add virgin coconut oil…
60-Second Chocolate Shot (Chocolate Frosting)
I confess… I was one of those kids that would eat chocolate frosting right out of the tub, 1 spoonful at a time! I think back on those times and wonder why I didn’t go into a diabetic coma!! But it was sooo good… I thought! This recipe is my new indulgence… I get in…
Homemade Coconut Milk
“Why did I not try this a long time ago???” This is what I have been telling myself since making my first batch of homemade coconut milk over a week ago. It can’t get any easier: hot water and coconut flakes (or chips from Tropical Tradition), blend, strain and Vualá!!! The stuff I had been purchasing…
