Something special from Mandy's kitchen...
Ever since going gluten free, it’s been my mission to master gluten-free baking. I’ve been used to baking vegan goodies for quite some time now, but making them gluten-free as well is a whole other monster-of-a challenge I had been too scared to attempt. But …
It was a sad day when my doctor informed me I could no longer partake in the eating of dairy foods. It was hard enough eliminating gluten from my diet a couple years ago, but now dairy too?! One, two punch! A good portion of …
When one cannot enjoy dairy or gluten, one would think one would not be able to indulge in pizza. However, I stand to correct that false supposition. Gluten-free crusts and dairy-free cheeses have made the beloved pizza universally available to all, even to those with …
It’s officially autumn, and even though the temperature outside has still been reaching the 80s, September has a funny way of prompting every food and beverage company in the Northern Hemisphere to release their “everything-pumpkin” lines come the first of the month. Pumpkin-spice lattes, pumpkin …

This cake is basically a salad…..so don’t feel guilty eating it! This was my first attempt at raw baked goods….are they still even called baked goods if they are raw?? Let’s stick with just raw desserts, then?? Anyway, I was pretty nervous to make a …
