If you’ve been following me for a while, you know how much I love cinnamon. So it’s probably not a big surprise that my favourite Valentine’s Day treats used to be the little cinnamon heart candy. Gosh I used to eat a ton of them around this time of year. […]
I think one of the most frightening parts of a healing protocol is the time in the kitchen. I know before I went gluten free and then paleo, the recipes really intimidated me. It seemed like everything needed a million ingredients and a lot of different steps. My days of […]
When I embarked on this autoimmune protocol healing journey, one of the foods I was afraid to live without were tomatoes. Tomatoes add so much flavour and colour to dishes, it’s hard not to mourn them a little when you give up nightshades. BUT once you realize it is possible […]
2017 has been quite a year! Healing In terms of healing, I feel like 2017 has been my best yet. I made HUGE strides in healing my gut!!! My LS and eczema are not in remission (yet) BUT they have both significantly improved. I was able to make several reintros including […]
You guys, I am almost done my Christmas shopping. Just one or two gifts to pick up tomorrow and I am DONE! But then starts the wrapping and the baking, and the eating…. oh I’m SO excited. I truly love Christmas. BUT I can totally understand how this time of […]
I feel like I was a weird child, at least when it came to dessert preferences. I was the kid that chose morning glory muffins over chocolate chip muffins, Jello over cake, and during the holidays if I had a choice between sugar cookies with icing or fruit cake, guess what […]

WARNING: This granola is dangerously addictive! I literally had to hide it from myself and hubby. From myself so I wouldn’t go overboard, from hubby so there would be some left for me later on, teehee! What you Need: Coconut Flakes OR Tigernut Flakes – This recipe uses toasted coconut […]
When Ali from Empowered Autoimmune asked if I would do a guest post, I thought it would be fun to share a light, refreshing dish to take a break from all the indulging that goes along with the holidays! This dish is nutrient dense and easy to throw together. I […]
There’s just something about gift giving that brings me so much joy. It’s not just the giving part, although that always makes me feel good. BUT it’s the entire process of choosing just the perfect gift for someone. It involves thinking about the recipient’s personality, likes, dislikes, what they are […]
Comin’ atcha with another ball recipe 😉 You all seemed to enjoy the Salted Caramel Pumpkin Spice Balls I posted this fall, so I thought it would be fun to share another. I actually started to develop this chocolate version first, but then got a little swept up in the […]
