So much goodness in such a small package!
I have been craving a peanut butter cookie for a while now. They are pretty healthy unless they call for white enriched flour. I wanted the most healthy version I could find. This is when I truly love the ability to search the internet. I’m building a digital bookmarked cookbook of all types healthy food…

Cold weather calls for comfort foods
While we aren’t really into traditional cold weather here in our little home on the mountain, there was a nip in the air today. I took a walk over the acreage to see leaves already coating the ground mingled with a heavy blanket of pine needles and cones. We are expecting a light frost the…

More chip deliciousness
I am really enjoying this dehydrating thing. It is well worth the $170ish (some places may have it for less) for a quality machine like The Cosori brand! The original corn-sesame seed chips and sweet potato chips have already been consumed. We are on our second batch of sweet potato chips. So I decided to…

Healthy chips
I’m so very pleased that we bit the bullet and invested in a decent countertop dehydrator. The air is blown from the back with no need to shift trays around during the drying process to give them equal coverage as is necessary when using the plastic stacked tray dehydrators. We love chips but limit our…

Because I can!
It is very rare that I splurge on a sweet treat. I’m not a person that likes extremely sweet anyway. One of my goto treats is usually a couple squares of very dark chocolate. But there is a treat I love because I live in the south and there are days a person just needs…

Sesame seed corn chips
Well I had planned on having fried corn for dinner last night. That didn’t work out so well because the fresh corn had been in the fridge for a bit too long and was beginning to dry out. A good dose of natural juicey corn starch from fresh corn is needed to create the perfect…

Trip around the world in a plate
We don’t waste food here in our little home on the mountain. It is very rare to have left overs since I cook meals for two. But ever so often there are when I prepare a batch of something like biscuits or a pot of something that gets bigger than expected. Tonight was easy peasy…

Cheese biscuits for the win!
I’m fairly certain the Red Lobster restaurant is a nationwide chain. If there isn’t one in your area, you have missed out on a treat. It has been many years since we dined there but we always looked forward to their cheesy biscuits served in leu of yeast rolls that many other restaurants bring to…

Deep Mediterranean roots..
My maternal grandmother passed away when I was 20 years old. I always loved her olive skin tone but had no clue why she, my mother and my uncle were blessed with it when I was left with very pale easily burned skin. Years later I found that there is a dabble of Mediterranean DNA…

Another great baked good recipe
I was looking for something different that we had not tried in baked goods today. There was a little time before I had to start cooking dinner. While missing a few ingredients for a couple things that sounded wonderful, I remembered I had Greek yogurt in the fridge that needed to be used when I…
