Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins, y’all! Hello to cheesecake for breakfast. 🙂 This wonderful revelation of a recipe is a recent discovery, pulled directly (and with permission) from the Brainy Breakfasts Cookbook by Tricia Gilkerson. Our family has been grain free for several months to work on some health issues, so this book is a huge support for me….
Feast Cookbook is Here!
It’s here! I couldn’t be more excited. Last year I realized that as much as I’m committed to eating healthy and staying sugar free and carb smart with my meal choices (and my Trim Healthy Mama lifestyle), that I was giving myself permission to cheat over the holiday season FAR too frequently. I hate losing traction…
Gingerbread Milkshake
Baby, it’s cold outside! So WHY am I making a milkshake? Because it’s a gingerbread milkshake! That makes it a seasonal flavor, and totally legit. Just like my Frozen Eggnog Milkshake that’s my other favorite this time of year. And yeah…even the Peppermint Chip counts too. Anything that keeps me out of the drive through…
Candied Apple Cinnamon Granola Bar Recipe
The granola bar recipe I posted years ago is still my kids ABSOLUTE favorite. It’s relatively healthy, since it’s sweetened with honey and peanut butter. If I’m gonna cheat or cross over on my diet, this is my choice. Every. Time. But sometimes, I’d like to have an option that’s just for me, so that I can…

When I was a kid, we lived less than a mile from a Big Star grocery store, and I would walk up there at least once a week with my allowance to score some treats. I usually went for the candy aisle, but one week, a 3 pack of giant streusel orange muffins caught my…
Awesome Ranch Dressing Recipe
This awesome ranch dressing recipe is one of my very favorite dressings AND dry spice blends. You know how you’ll make a recipe and like it but then either you get tired of it, or forget about it for years? This isn’t one of those recipes. Once I tweaked this recipe to our liking, it’s…
Coconut Yogurt- Dairy Free!
A good coconut yogurt recipe became a necessity here when my husband went on a short dairy free diet plan from our doctor. Greek yogurt had been a great fast breakfast and snack, so he was sad to lose such a creamy, convenient and delicious snack. I knew that you could buy coconut yogurt but…
Almond Low Carb Hummus Recipe
I first tasted this low carb hummus recipe while on a retreat with my friend Kim. We both brought healthy low glycemic goodies to a conference that we attended, but THIS is what stole the show. I know…it’s hummus. And it’s vegan, Paleo, and low carb, so it really barely sounds edible. But give it…
