What started out as cocoa rice crispy cereal turned into cocoa hazelnut rice crispy treats. I love both, but then again I love almost anything involving chocolate. This is another variation on rice c...

I ruminated way too long on what to post next, and the result is that I’m quite a bit late on posting here. I try to post once a week or so, but the recent days and weeks have left me way too b...
Bees are important. To find out why, see this, read this, or search for colony collapse on the Internet. We rely on bees for so many things, and they are a marker for how well the environment is fair...
I’m finally getting around to using coconut flour and nut flour in a single recipe. Both flours offer great health benefits, and can compliment each other in the right ratio and accompanying li...
What do you get when you bring cocoa (cacao), coconut, and almonds together? In this case, very decadent chocolate macaroons. And while I’m not a huge consumer of shredded coconut, I enjoy a fe...
I’ve been playing around with the whole “fry” thing. The butternut squash fries recipe was a hit for many, and for some, well, let’s just say that it didn’t quite satisf...
The only reason I call these brownie bites is because they’re intoxicating, and therefore I suggest you savor these slowly and in small amounts to prevent any sudden overdose of enjoyment. This...
I rarely eat meat, and beef is a definite no for me. And I’m not a fan of buying hot dogs, let alone eating them, but I thought I would get this posted while I’m in the spirit and also ma...
Here’s a little treat I’ve recently added to my day, since it has been highly compressed lately (the day, not the treat). I pop one or more of these (ok, at least three of the mini muffin...
During the December holidays I found some time to read a few books, one of them being The Man Who Couldn’t Eat by Jon Reiner. The Man Who Couldn’t Eat is a memoir based on a story of the ...

Fries are… kid food (for the kid in all of us), finger food, salty, sweet, crunchy, munchy, and just plain fun. Especially years ago when I didn’t want to touch much else at fast food res...
When we began to change our diet a few years ago, most commercial ketchup brands had corn syrup in it. Some still do, but even so, if you’re avoiding processed sugars, making your own ketchup e...
‘Tis the season of ginger, butter, and molasses. With all the ginger snap cookie recipes cropping up, I couldn’t resist posting my own version. No brown sugar or molasses here, but lots o...
If you’re thinking that your stuffing has to have bread in it – nope. Not necessary. Here’s one of my favorite stuffing mixtures, which can vary based on what you have on hand. Add ...
There are a couple of things that almond flour does so well, in my humble opinion: scones, cookies, and biscuits. If you haven’t made biscuits using almond flour, do it at least once. This reci...
Here’s what I’ve been eating while on the run this week. It’s fairly quick to make and it’s a recipe based on veggie leftovers. I ran around all day last Saturday, dashing in ...

Whoever first asked me for a recipe for pumpkin bread had no idea how obsessed I can become with getting something right. It’s the type A in me. I went from having a marginal interest in pumpki...

I’ve been asked about a pumpkin bread recipe for over a year now, even though I’ve never made it before and didn’t really have a craving for it, or a request for it on the home fron...
I love beans in soups and salads. And I find beans so easy to use in recipes, even though I don’t have many on Comfy Belly. That may change over time. Here’s an easy recipe for sweet and ...
Tomatoes are still flurrying about in all kinds of shapes and sizes around here, and one of my favorites is the orange cherry tomato. So sweet, I just keep popping them in my mouth until suddenly the...
