This Cinnamon Vanilla Chia Seed Pudding recipe was inspired by a favorite diner dessert: cinnamon rice pudding! It has a texture similar to tapioca pudding, and just 2g net carbs per serving, making it a delicious keto dessert. Have you tried chia seeds yet? I first had them sprinkled on a salad a couple years ago. They are delicious with a subtle nutty flavor, and they’re really versatile. Chia seeds work well in smoothies, oatmeal, and some baked goods recipes. For the past year or so, I’ve been seeing chia seed pudding all over the place and I decided it was finally time to try […]...
Caramel-Vanilla Cupcakes for 5 {Vegan}
This small batch of Caramel-Vanilla Cupcakes yields cupcakes that are deliciously moist and tender…and vegan! If you have a small dinner party and want a great dessert that comes together easily, these are perfect. So, what are you making for dessert tonight? Maybe something like that Caramel Apple Cake I saw on your blog a while ago?, a friend excitedly asked me around 2 o’clock one afternoon.

I guess “eating healthy” doesn’t mean skipping dessert, even for a regular weeknight meal among close […]...
Vanilla Roasted Pears
Vanilla Roasted Pears is the perfect fall dessert; roasting brings out their natural sweetness, and you’ll end up with a lovely vanilla-scented pear caramel sauce in the bottom of the pan that you can drizzle on top of the fruit when serving.

When fall rolls around I usually gravitate toward fruits like apples and grapes, but the truth is, every time I eat a pear I think wow, this is delicious…I should really start buying pears more often. And yet, without fail, the next time I’m at the grocery store or farmers’ […]...
Cherry-Vanilla Cheese Danish Cupcakes
Fresh cherries have flooded the markets and of course I wasted no time buying my share, which basically means that every time I’m out and about I pick up another bag (or two). ...
Christmas Dinner for Two: Vanilla-Maple Glazed Cornish Hens, Spiced Yams, and Braised Red Cabbage with Cherries
I absolutely love everything about this time of year…the festivities, the family time, the food. I’ve noticed that when it comes to holiday feasts, it doesn’t matter whether you’re making a banquet for a group of twenty friends or an intimate meal to enjoy with your love; the truly magical thing is getting to share a beautiful meal with someone special. A dear friend of mine recently asked me to put together a Christmas dinner for two; I happily agreed (developing recipes and menus is pretty much my all-time favorite thing to do!) and Cornish hen immediately came to mind. Specifically, I thought of Cornish […]...
