Shepherd’s Pie

The kiddo went to science camp in Yosemite for a week earlier this month. I asked what she wanted for dinner the two nights before she left. Her answer Shepherd’s Pie, and it was okay if she had it both nights! This is a girl after my own heart. I love nothing more than a…

Smoked Salmon Frittata

Hi! I’m back. Sorry to be missing for two weeks, but unfortunately that’s the nature of a website, sometimes they go down. But I’m back and can’t wait to share with you this recipe for Smoked Salmon Frittata. I first discovered this recipe in 2008 when my mini was just two years old. My original…

Chocolate Morning Muffin

I discovered these yummy chocolate morning muffin that are perfect any morning you want to tell your loved ones you’re thinking about them. This is is a moderately sweet recipe – not over the top as some muffins can be.  Be aware that the brand of gluten free flour you use will have a large…

Dairy Free Stuffed Mushrooms

This recipe for dairy free stuffed mushrooms was created kind of on accident. I wasn’t exactly trying to come up with this exact recipe, but it turned out so tasty I decided to write it down and use it for entertaining. So not only am I obsessed with breakfast foods, if you’ve been a reader…

Breakfast Sandwich #2

I’m back at it again with breakfast sandwich #2. Another incarnation of my favorite breakfast item.

I know you…

Gluten & Dairy Free Breakfast Bake

Gluten & Dairy Free Breakfast Bake As many members of my family are now eating gluten free due to food sensitivity issues my mom decided everything should be gluten free over the holidays. Not a bad idea as we all enjoy cooking and have been playing around with different gluten/dairy/tree nut free recipes with much…

I Adore Cinnamon Toast

I adore cinnamon toast – any time day or night, it’s a big hit in my book. I think it started because when I was very little my father managed a fuel oil company in Maine. If a customer ran out of heating oil in the middle of the night my dad had to go…

Dairy Free Cheesy Salsa Dip

My sister gave me this recipe for this cheesy salsa dip many years ago – I always have the ingredients on hand, so it’s a snap to mix it together for a last minute get together. Since I’ve gone dairy free I’ve given it my dairy free tweak, but feel free to make this with…
