Chickpea Wild Rice Salad

I am really on a roll with all these posts in a row!  Sadly, I lost my camera battery charger and since it died at our Memorial Day Party I haven’t been able to upload pics (such a bummer because we set up the baby pool for the littles and OMG cuteness overload).  I have my cell phone photos but they’re subpar at best.  Still, I’d like to share this recipe since it was a real hit and super easy. Not the prettiest, I’ll admit, but sometimes you just have to accept that things aren’t always pinterest-y in… Read more >

Sweet peachy cornbread

I came up with this on the fly last week after realizing too late in the day that we were out of plain almond milk and very low on cornmeal.  Necessity is the mother of invention though…orrrrr…in Elise terms…being cheap and desperate will lead you down different paths than your ideal route.   But I made it work, and I wrote down what I used in case it was decent and (shocker) it may be my favorite cornbread recipe ever.   Sweet Peach Cornbread [gluten free, soy free, nut free] Ingredients: 3/4 cup corn meal 1 1/2… Read more >

Brownie mix cookies

I was debating between making brownies or cookies for our memorial day party and was kinda in the mood for shortcuts since I was making a few other things.  So I decided brownies would be easier because TJ’s has a gluten free mix. But then! I never would have thought of this on my own but I happened to look at the bag and noticed a cookie recipe.  Best of both worlds. I made tweaks, naturally.  There wasn’t nearly enough liquid as per their recipe so I upped the water.  I suspect any liquid would work though…. Read more >

My highlights: week 21

Hopefully P will be better at sharing than his parents.  But seriously, I think the key to a happy marriage is separate dessert stashes.  Don’t try to steal my chocolate!   We went for a family hike to Avery Pond.  We met up with a few other families and even though the hike started around P’s nap time, we coordinated the drive so he’d fall asleep on the way there.  We hit up the bux and he got an hour of shut eye.  Win win. We also stopped at the Roseville WF on the way home because,… Read more >

4 ingredient vegan chocolate ice cream

Ignore the chocolate chips in the photo below, because that’s an [optional] fifth ingredient. Oh my gosh was this ever good. And easy!  So so easy!  None of the boiling milk and dissolving sugar nonsense.  <–Lazy girl, no shame.   I got an ice cream maker for my birthday (in October) but it wasn’t really put to use very much over the colder months of winter.  Now, though.  Now, is ice cream season. And I am alllll about the coconut milk versions.  I’m pretty much be doing different mixes of this basic guideline from now until… Read more >
