Gluten-free, vegan, paleo, allergy-free, and naturally sweet, it's everything you love about the season in a new healthy way!

It worked! I was so determined to make a good cranberry sauce this year and now I finally won! My first attempt at homemade cranberry sauce was 6 years ago and it was a disaster. Okay, not a total disaster, but I remember it being so sour and barely palatable. It turned me off to cranberries once again. After that occurrence, I just kind of gave up and never tried again…until now. Here we are, 6 years later, with a lovely sauce that I am proud and pleased to finally share!Read More

January’s Theme – A New Ingredient For The New Year: Pick a new ingredient that you’ve been wanting to try… and cook or bake up a new recipe in the new year. Are you curious about nutritional yeast, fish sauce, matcha, teff – or maybe even ugli fruit? Show us how you’re cooking with something new (to you!) in 2016. (Recipe ReDux)

Call me condiment girl! From my undieing love for ketchup, infatuation with bbq sauce, and must-have mustard stock, I love them all! They make food fun, enough said! Any easy way to flavor up food, not only am I condiment girl, but also the spice queen, it’s my life’s mission to try to to create with them all. Since this month’s Recipe ReDux theme was all about cooking with new interesting ingredients, I thought it was fitting to bring my first recipe using harissa to the blog!
