From Beans to Cupcakes

These beauties are Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free & Low-Carb!!!! Oh, and they taste delicious! I know what you are thinking. Beans. BEANS?!?!?!?! Hey, I didn't invent this recipe, I just used it to make delicious & moist vanilla cupcakes (makes a nice cake as well!). Oh and get this, there is a chocolate version too! If you are going to become a low-carb baker though, you are gonna have to invest in some alternative sweetener(s) and low-carb (preferrably gluten-free) flour substitute(s). What I can't buy locally, I buy online at Netrition. They are competitive in pricing and shipping and provide great service. […]

Pancake Sunday (and Saturday)

Going to church on Sunday was a regular occurrence growing up. As a child I always remembered when the Men's Club would have their pancake breakfast. My Dad was in the Men's Club so it was an event we always attended. My childhood memory could be faulty but it seemed like it was a monthly occurrence. If it wasn't pancakes on Sunday it was donuts and juice. I'd like to think we didn't know any better “back then” but even today, with diabetes being an epidemic (in kids and adults), this is a still a weekly occurrence at most churches. […]

Keto Margarita for One

I am not a big drinker, back in the day I could throw them back, but whoa….not anymore. One glass of wine puts a smile on my face! Plus, there's a fine line between healthy alcohol consumption and not. I like to stay on the right side of the line. Last time I didn't (my 20th high school reunion) I paid the price dearly. Who has a hangover that lasts 2 days? Carrying on…. It was a spur of the moment, impulsive decision, but as we were running around this weekend, we decided to buy some tequila. Being the tequila […]

Flatbread Friday

I'm not a huge pizza lover, but my husband is. And after many years of him enjoying his one and only weekly unhealthy indulgence, he was a little sad when discovering gluten was not his friend. Friday night's just weren't the same without pizza. I am happy to say it's been well over a year since he fell face first into a DiGiorno's thanks to the many pizza variations we've come up with using a healthy, gluten-free, low-carb Flatbread Pizza Crust. Taco Pizza with Flatbread Pizza Crust I first discovered this recipe in The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook by Elana Amsterdam and then […]
