So, it seems like “trending recipes” are all the rage. Not on this food blog!!! Seriously! Who are the people that conjur up these new trends? People without a normal life?
Gluten Free
Holiday Sweet Potato Casserole
I love this time of year! All of the great family gatherings and parties — and socially acceptable increased sugar consumption! 😁 This dish flirts with the very fine line between vegetable and dessert. Even non-sweet-potato-lovers will adore this casserole!
Wine-Basted Roasted Turkey
I am a very visual person — things need to LOOK good, but still please all my senses. I also like to experiment. But when I find something that works well, I repeat it over and over. When roasting a full turkey, this is my go-to method. It may be strange, but the results are amazing!
Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
One of the best memories I have is coming home from school – even as a teenager – to the smell of freshly baked cookies. My mother would sit at the table with us, pour a glass of milk, and listen as we chatted about our day.
Gluten Free Brownies
I should have been a boy scout. As the middle of 3 girls, I considered myself a tomboy.

My husband grew up with a mother who baked pies, cakes, and cookies daily, and each meal – and every cup of coffee – was accompanied by some wonderful homemade treat. Honestly, I would rather eat a candy bar filled with tons of sugar, fat, and preservatives than a slice of homemade pie. But that may change!
Chicken Salad with a Taste of Mexico
I seem to be hooked on cumin right now. There’s something perfectly suitable for warm weather in the nutty, earthy, peppery taste of cumin. It’s not an in-your-face flavour, but packs a little heat in a nicely subdued package.
Easy Broiled Tuna Melts
There are some things I love about food blogs: the writing is captivating, the photography is stunning and can cause me to wipe drool from my chin, and the recipes creatively use ingredients in new and unusual ways. But let’s get real here! That is not the way I cook on a daily basis. Nor is it the way my family wants to eat regularly. Seriously! Pickle Brine Chicken Tortilla Soup???
