Gluten Free Dairy Free Recipes

This is a tricky way to get your kids to eat bananas…um, not really. There’s no tricking here. It’s chocolate, bananas, and peanut butter. It’s dessert! And what kid (or adult) doesn’t like dessert? These are so fun to make, but seriously…I need to stop. 1 recipe pizza dough 6 T cocoa powder 3/4 cup [...]

It will probably take you longer to read this post than to make this delicious dip. Is it cheesecake? Nope. Does it taste like cheesecake? Yep. Does it have thousands of calories like real cheesecake? Nope. You’re welcome. 1 spoonful of coconut butter (might have to soften this in the microwave for a minute if [...]

I want to marry these calzones, but I can’t…so I will just date them! (Someone out there, somewhere, laughed…I know it!) The only thing missing from these calzones is…..nothing. Make them the night before and serve them for breakfast the next morning. Eat them for dessert. Eat them because you want to. Just eat them. [...]

My son wanted “fruit ice cream” for his birthday and since we were right in the middle of apple season I came up with this dairy-free Caramel Apple Ice Cream. Caramel, Apples, Ice Cream…um, can you go wrong? Caramel: (Cara, at http://forkandbeans.wordpress.com/2012/02/16/4057/, came up with the caramel recipe. It is the same caramel I use [...]

When my kids found out that they were getting cookies for breakfast, they were confused. Had they waken up late? Is this a snack? Can I get my breakfast AND a snack? Has mommy gone mad? A little mad…I have a LOT of pumpkin to use so my madness has turned into their reward. These [...]

[...]

  I wish I could take the credit for this fabulous creation, but these gluten-free, dairy-free ice cream sandwiches are the creation of my 4-year old nephew. He didn’t know he was creating one of the greatest recipes known to Celiacs and Paleo Diet followers everywhere! He added to the fun by rolling some in [...]

My son’s birthday was last week, so I was excited to try my own cake recipe. It worked! The first time we made these I only used 1/4 cup honey and added 1/2 cup sauerkraut. Why sauerkraut? Because it was in my fridge and I had made a chocolate cake years ago that asked for [...]

We had a lot of fun with our pizza dough one night making all kinds of different calzone fillings, each one trying to come up with the winning recipe. We all won! Each person had their favorite (which was most likely the one they came up with), but we all agreed that they were all [...]

Happy last day of summer! What better way to celebrate then with some ice cream?! This recipe for 5-Minute Chocolate Dairy Free Ice Cream is courtesy of my twin sister and comes with a Public Service Announcement.  Ice cream is good at all times of the year. OK. Glad I got that off my chest. [...]
