Homemade berry kombucha popsicles on a fancy brown platter surrounded by berries

I feel like popsicles are one of those often overlooked somewhat healthy treats. Sure, there are junky ones on the loose but homemade popsicles can end up being a healthy alternative to more traditional desserts. Popsicles aren’t just for summer either! They make a year round treat and are especially handy to have on hand when a sore throat strikes and nothing else will soothe it. Enter Kombucha popsicles. If you are here for this kombucha popsicle recipe my guess is that you ... continue reading...

Chocolate cake! Love it but hate to wait for it? Now you don't have to. This 5 ingredient chocolate cake comes together in minutes. From HybridRastaMama.com

Chocolate isn't my main jam when it comes to cake. I'm sort of a Funfetti cupcake freak. But I won't turn down a really moist gluten free chocolate cake. Cupcakes more specifically. I rarely make chocolate anything if you can believe that. But sometimes, sometimes I NEED chocolate. And. I. Need. Cake. And I need it in 20 minutes or less. I actually have a really yummy quinoa chocolate cake recipe on my site. It is amazing and one of my most popular recipes but I don't always have quinoa ... continue reading...

A dish of gluten free kung pao chicken

I used to love Chinese food. Ok. Not ALL Chinese food. But most Chinese food. You see, I was fortunate enough to live in an area with a diverse population and loads of mom and pop restaurants with authentic cuisine. None of this Americanized crud. Anyhoo – I loved Moo Shoo Pork, Orange Chicken, Hot and Sour Soup, and Kung Pao Chicken. Those were my four go-tos depending on my mood. Sigh… I miss those days of eating with reckless abandon. And by reckless abandon I mean not knowing or caring ... continue reading...

Looking for a “green” alternative to all of those nasty, chemical laden weed killers (aka – herbicides)? It is as easy as opening up your jar of coconut oil! Yep - coconut oil weed killer! But first... Why Should You Avoid Traditional Weed Killers? Roundup and Spectracide are on every shelf of every store that sells garden products.
