Zucchini and Goat Cheese Stacks with Fresh Mint, Pine Nuts, and Crispy Prosciutto

April 13, 2017 by Faith 10 Comments

Zucchini and Goat Cheese Stacks with Fresh Mint, Pine Nuts, and Crispy Prosciutto are as easy to make as they are delicious and impressive; they’re perfect for a spring supper or party!

I’m not one to shy away from green veggies. In fact, I’ve been known to serve fried eggs on sautéed greens as a breakfast salad, turn a bed of greens into pizza, and replace bread with leaves. But when spring rolls around, my need for the color green in my diet seems to intensify even more. From peas, to asparagus, leafy greens like spinach and watercress, leeks, and fava beans, spring brings with it a plethora of gorgeous green vegetables and fresh flavors to cleanse our winter palates.…

Protein Chocolate Fudge {Gluten-Free; Vegan}

March 25, 2016 by Faith 9 Comments

Protein Chocolate Fudge that won’t foil your healthy eating…this rich gluten-free treat is sweetened with dates and pure maple syrup with complex flavor notes of vanilla and espresso. We all get those days. Maybe that one coworker was relentless today, or maybe traffic was especially fun. Maybe your hubs is giving your marriage vows a run for their money (hey, it happens in real life). Or perhaps it’s just that time of the month. Whatever the reason, sometimes we just need a little chocolate in our lives, especially when it’s healthy like this Protein Chocolate Fudge. Am I right, ladies?...

3-Ingredient Chocolate-Covered Peanut Butter Eggs {Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs Copycat}

March 23, 2015 by Faith 24 Comments

As a kid, I always thought Easter had the best candy as far as holidays go. Jelly Belly jelly beans, Cadbury cream eggs, and Reese’s peanut butter eggs all in one day! (OMG, not to mention Sponge Candy.) What kid wouldn’t go crazy? (First of excitement and then of a sugar rush.)...

Deluxe Cake Batter Fudge

April 14, 2014 by Faith 10 Comments

I don’t know about you, but I’m a little hard-pressed to find a dessert that’s suitable for Easter outside of carrot cake, lemon bars, or orange chiffon cake. And of course all the cutesy little bunny and egg-topped cupcakes and cookies. There’s nothing wrong with any of those things (in fact, I die over a good slice of carrot cake!), but I don’t know…I like to mix things up a little. If you’re the same way, this fudge will definitely keep things interesting....

Chocolate-Covered Sponge Candy

December 19, 2013 by Faith 26 Comments

Homemade Chocolate-Covered Sponge Candy is easier to make than you might think…here the crunch and complex sweetness of caramelized sugar candy is paired with chocolate for a treat everyone loves. Here’s a tip: this candy turns out best when made on a non-humid day! We don’t talk candy much around here (other than things like Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups, Superfood Spiced Autumn Truffles, and Paleo Candy Apple Wedges), which is probably for the best. The mere mention of things like homemade Snickers Bars (which I have wanted to make for forever now!), Peppermint Patties, and Buckeyes is enough to make me want to throw all caution […]...
