A few years ago, on a road trip from Texas to Tennessee, we stopped for dinner and noticed something called an Italian Margarita on the menu, so I ordered one to share. And then another. Soon after, I experimented at home until I re-created a version of the yummy concoction that we like the best. Margarita Thursday, as they're sometimes known in my house, often feature this Italian Margarita Cocktail Recipe. I like drinking these margaritas out of a fancy margarita glass with sugar on the ... continue reading...

Spicy Cucumber Tomato and Water Chestnut Salad
My daughter and I have similar palettes and share a love of food. We have since she was about 3 years old. I'm not kidding! She even got me to expand MY food horizons before she hit double digits. Thanks to her, for example, I love mushrooms. So, when I was visiting her at her first apartment in college recently, we decided to have a girls' night in to cook up a storm and create recipes together. This spicy cucumber tomato and water chestnut salad was one of our five concoctions in a 5-course ... continue reading...

Dairy-Free Caramel Chocolate Brownies
Another staple in our house throughout my children's lives has been homemade brownies. We've whipped them together so many times that I don't need to look at a recipe, and a box mix might actually take longer at this point. Recently, I decided to take our tried and true brownies (which are dairy-free) up a notch, turning them into dairy-free caramel chocolate brownies. And wow! They are super yummy and gooey and chocolatey and caramel-y and decadent. :) The basic brownie recipe is adapted ... continue reading...
Dairy-Free Almond Nut Butter Cookies
My favorite Sesame Street character growing up was Cookie Monster ... mostly because I identified with his intense love for cookies. Can anyone relate? Among my favorites was my mom's peanut butter cookies, which I remade into Dairy-Free Almond Nut Butter Cookies! When my daughter was in kindergarten, a boy in her class was soooo allergic to peanuts that he ate lunch by himself, just in case a child at his table brought a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in their lunch. Just the "fumes" ... continue reading...

Gluten-Free Cauliflower Tots
Riced cauliflower is getting easier to find at more and more regular grocery stores, so I just had to share this easy Gluten-Free Cauliflower Tots recipe I created. It uses already-riced cauliflower (yay!) and is dairy-free (although you can use goat cheese instead of the Daiya dairy-free mozzarella shreds if you don't have issues with cow's milk).
