If I had to pick my spirit animal it would be a rabbit. Why? Because I am so in love with carrots. I love the crunch, I love the color, I love it with peanut butter (weird I know) or hummus. Absolutely loveeee my little orange friends. I don’t think my fridge has ever NOT…
Gluten Free Carrot Cake (Low-Carb)
Healthy Korean Bulgogi (Honey Sweetened)
Some of you may not know this, but Zoe and I aren’t a big fan of red meat – whether thats ribs or pork belly or steak. However I do have to say we both make an exception for Korean bulgogi. Bulgogi is a sweet, salty beef dish that is comparable to teriyaki but much…
Double Chocolate Swirled Banana Cake (Gluten Free, Oil Free)
I don’t remember what happened last week. Days, weeks, months all seem to mold together into one blur. Can you even imagine we’ve been in lockdown for close to half a year now?

There were historic districts, the beautiful Erie Canal, stretches of empty farmland and luscious green trees. One…
White Bean Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (Vegan)
Vegan. No Bake. No Butter No oil. Only 58 calories per bite. My alarm rang. I groaned before turning over to shut it off. Simultaneously I heard a different alarm in the next room – my sister’s room – go off. Before long, a familiar figure grouchily entered my room. My baby sister, in her sweatpants,…

So here’s one that gut-friendly, protein packed and only requires store cupboard ingredients. I sent this recipe over…
Healthy Cashew Shrimp (Oil Free)
I recently found a new way to make my frozen shrimp taste better! If you marinade shrimp in a little pinch of sugar and water it will restore the shrimp to its original plumpness and juiciness. Strange science isn’t it?
