Nut Butter Stuffed Dates: a healthy treat for your sweet tooth!
Inspired by Restoring Radiance for these nut butter stuffed dates, they were a hit!! First of all, I’m a sucker for anything peanut butter & chocolate (anyone else?!) and while these originally called for almond butter, I switched it out for my favorite peanut butter instead! SO GOOD!
How To Make A Yogurt Bowl
One thing I love about these bowls is how versatile they can be! From the different types of yogurt to various toppings, you can switch things up to whatever you’re feeling. Pictured below is a favorite: fall inspired apple bowl with cinnamon! So good! {You can also visit my Instagram for more bowl ideas}

Why You Should Add Ghee To Your Diet
Ghee- a healthy fat that you should be adding into your diet!
Have you heard of or used ghee? Used for many many years in Indian cooking and Ayurvedic practices, ghee is an amazing healthy fat that deserves a place in our diet. Similar to butter, ghee technically is butter that has been heated to remove the milk solids and simmered to enhance it’s natural buttery flavor. This process is why people who are allergic to dairy can usually handle ghee.
Chicken & Rice Soup with Vegetables
Smooth Cool Tropical Delight “Ice Cream”
Looking for a cool, delicious summertime treat?!
This one is dairy free, reminds you of a tropical island and is so so refreshing! I made this for guests one evening and it was a hit!
This dish contains NO ADDED sugar making it a great option for a snack or dessert or even a breakfast treat!
Bonus tip: add chia seeds and a handful of greens for extra health benefits! (However if you do add greens, it will loose the pretty color.)
*You can also freeze this in a container to eat later.
RECIPE UPDATE: I used strawberries in place of the pineapple and boy was it good!
Blueberry Baked Oatmeal {Gluten Free}
One of my favorite old time breakfast meals. A twist on the traditional bowl of oatmeal.
I have been loving oats lately. They are a great source of fiber, B vitamins, protein (5-7 grams in 1/2 cup) and antioxidants. Plus it is very filling. I get on my egg and smoothie kick and tend to forget about oatmeal which is a great breakfast choice. (Or a snack like these delicious cookies)
To make this DAIRY FREE:
- replace butter with coconut oil, melted.
- replace raw milk with your favorite dairy alternative: almond, cashew or coconut
*Use CERTIFIED GLUTEN FREE OATS to ensure your oats are gluten free. (Naturally oats are but they are usually processed in a facility with wheat which can result in cross contamination).
*Avoid using quick oats which are highly processed, loosing vitamins, fiber and minerals. Rolled oats are your best option here.
If you practice food combining, this recipe is still delicious without the blueberries. You can also add bananas as well.
Chocolate Pudding Made With Real Food Ingredients
