Recently, my Sister introduced me to Purple Carrots. She generously gave me a packet and told me that they have loads of anti-oxidants and anti-cancer qualities. I hadn’t heard of purple carrots before and discovered that they cook and taste just like “normal” orange carrots – but make EVERYTHING they cook with completely purple. My […]
Gluten Free Pumpkin Muffins
These Gluten Free Pumpkin Muffins are also Kosher for Passover, which is what lead me to come up with a recipe for muffins that the boys can have for snacks and meals during the Passover period.

Full Pantry Clean Out
Today Passover begins, so yesterday I completed my Annual Full Pantry Clean Out. In a way I equally dread and look forward to the annual event (the pantry clean out, that is).

A beautiful time when all the flowers bloom, amazing butterflies are fluttering in gardens and cute little bunnies hop through the fields. This […]
Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower and Coconut
I don’t think there is a sight more comforting than a Baked Macaroni and Cheese with a crispy, cheesy crust on top. Growing up, my sister and I would always fight over who got more of the “Nutty Bits” as we called the crunchy, hardened cheese on the top. I made this when she was […]
