Okay, let’s get started on this deliciously rich Toblerone cake. Ingredients 1 cup of sugar 3/4…

Recipe: Gluten Free Breakfast Pizza
Gluten free breakfast pizza – we just finished eating this and it was so good. Why, you ask? Well, last night the plan was to make pizza, however, a bit of a hic-up in our guest room set us back. Yes, the guest room was done, however, we decided to update the baseboard and do some crown moulding in the room. The problem?

Recipe: Campfire Avocado Mash
Campfire avocado mash – this was our breakfast on day one while we were camping in Glacier National Park in Montana. So fun! I called ahead to see what I could bring food-wise across the border. I couldn’t bring meat or eggs. So, we stopped at the St. Mary’s Grocery Store, yet they were out of eggs. No…I was going to make Guac-Eggers. Bummer. I’ll have to make them another time. What I did find, however, was this smoked chicken breast and it’s gluten free…

Recipe: Fresh Zucchini Boats
Fresh zucchini boats – the perfect dinner on this beautifully sunny spring day. Not only are they fresh (well, by fresh I mean not all hot and filled with melted cheese), but they are tasty, too. In this recipe I cook the zucchini first and then add the other ingredients – I don’t bake them all together. Let’s get cooking. Ingredients 1 zucchini cup of corn 2 cups of black beans (I soak my own, better than using a can) 3 tablespoons of fresh cilantro…
