Almond Vanilla Chia Pudding with Peach Pie Topping (Low Carb Peach Dessert)

August 13, 2018 by Faith 3 Comments

Almond Vanilla Chia Pudding with Peach Pie Topping (Low Carb Peach Dessert) needs just 15 minutes to whip up, babysits itself in the fridge overnight, and also makes a healthy breakfast!

My inspiration for this recipe was peach cobbler meets vanilla pudding. I wanted something that I could whip up quickly, and could enjoy for breakfast or dessert. Low Carb Almond Vanilla Chia Pudding with Peach Pie Topping is not only delicious, but a great use for seasonal peaches, especially if you’re looking for low carb treats.…

Low-Carb Keto No-Churn Vanilla Cheesecake Ice Cream with Strawberry Swirl and Chocolate Chunks

February 12, 2018 by Faith 10 Comments

Low-Carb Keto No-Churn Vanilla Cheesecake Ice Cream with Strawberry Swirl and Chocolate Chunks is the perfect treat to keep in your freezer for those times when an ice cream craving hits! I had high hopes of making cheesecake-stuffed chocolate-drizzled strawberries this Valentine’s Day. Alas, the best laid plans. (But if you haven’t seen them, do a quick Google search because they are quite possibly the cutest food ever. But I’ll admit, I was feeling a little unmotivated – ahem, lazy – when it comes to meticulously piping cheesecake into strawberries.)...

All opinions are mine alone. #TeaProudly #CollectiveBias Chai-Spiced Vanilla Shortbread Cookies are laced with vanilla bean and richly spiced, the perfect fall afternoon treat with a steaming cup of tea! One of my favorite memories of fall while I was growing up in Western New York is driving out to the country for a trip to a pumpkin patch. We’d walk around the patch looking for what we thought was the best pumpkin; basically, the biggest one we could find that was perfectly Jack-O-Lantern-shaped. After that, we’d head home and continue the festivities […]...

Vanilla Yogurt with Grape and Blueberry Compote with Honey and Fresh Rosemary: An Easy Breakfast or Dessert

September 6, 2016 by Faith 17 Comments

I’m thrilled to share #mydailysiggis story along with a few tips and tricks for managing this busy time of year, and my Vanilla Yogurt with Grape and Blueberry Compote with Honey and Fresh Rosemary recipe makes an easy, elegant breakfast or dessert. On any given day when I check my email, I’m likely to get multiple messages saying something along the lines of “time flies!” or “I can’t believe that summer (or fall, or winter, or spring) is nearly over!” or “soon enough it’ll be Thanksgiving (or Christmas, or New Year’s, or Memorial Day)!” or “it’s been forever since we caught up!” I swear it feels like […]...

Vanilla Mango Preserves

June 10, 2016 by Faith 5 Comments

This Vanilla Mango Preserves recipe takes just an hour to make; it’s a delicious tropical twist on your favorite fruity jam and a great way to spiffy up your morning toast. So apparently mangos are like zucchini. When they’re in season, anyone with a tree will do just about anything to use them up. A friend of ours dropped off two pretty big boxes of mangos in less than a week, knowing they’re one of my favorites. It was such a sweet gesture that left us eating mangos hand-over-fist, and yet we still weren’t able to keep up with those mangos....

Easy Homemade Vanilla Almond Lattes

Disclosure: I’m sharing #beyondordinary in my life as part of a Sahale Snacks® sponsored series for Socialstars™. Try these Easy Homemade Vanilla Almond Lattes instead of hitting up your favorite café! As of late, I have come to terms with the following regarding myself and coffee: As an adult, it turns out I actually am a coffee drinker. I don’t like my coffee super strong and straight-up the way I drank it in law school (basically for rocket fuel); instead, I much prefer a medium roast brewed in a French press with a splash of whole milk or if I’m feeling indulgent, half and half. […]...
