Giant Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie

May 9, 2013 by Cara

I’ve been learning so much about how to deal with life this week. This recipe for a Giant Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie (gluten, egg, and dairy free too!) is a great representation of said lesson. Let me explain… You can set out to do something all you’d like but always beĀ open to (and expect) set…

Italian Quinoa Bites

April 18, 2013 by Cara

Oh Italian Quinoa Bites… How I love thee… What fun little appetizer bites these are! You might wanna make them for dinner, however. You won’t be able to get yourself to stop eating them. I know that everyone says that but this time it’s serious. Crunchy on the outside with a warm quinoa center that melts into…

Cauliflower Spanish Rice

April 16, 2013 by Cara

I try my best in life to maintain a balanced mentality towards food by avoiding using descriptive words like “off-limits”, “guilty”, or even allowing myself to feel shame after eating. (Note that I said try: I am not perfect). Not that I was always this way. I used to be a slave to food. I would…

Cauliflower FauxMeal

April 11, 2013 by Cara

I’m officially off my veggie rocker. Or really it’s cauliflower. I am cauliflower obsessed! I’m obsessed with finding creative and inventive ways to use cauliflower and I cannot be stopped. First it was Spanish Cauliflower Rice. Then as a Parmesan. THEN as Beer-Battered Tacos. Now as Cream of Wheat?! A Cauliflower FauxMeal: this is complete insanity. No,…

Beer-Battered Cauliflower Tacos

April 8, 2013 by Cara

There are 3 things you need in life: 1). Something to do, 2). Something to love, and 3). Something to look forward to. And beer. The silent 4th. Oh, and cauliflower that has been dipped in a beer batter and eaten like tacos. When you are not happy, you are not doing one of those things….

Crispy Orange Cauliflower

April 3, 2013 by Cara

Just when you thought Chinese food was off-limits, I give you Crispy Orange Cauliflower. Yes, you heard me correctly. What looks like chicken is actually cauliflower…   Proof as to why I am a better cook than baker. Cooking comes a lot more naturally for me–I am more at ease in finding my way around…

Cracked Easter Egg Cupcakes

March 29, 2013 by Cara

Remember those times as a kid when the year seemed to take forever to get through? Especially once Christmas passed, that period of waiting until Spring Break (which was of course the marking point that summer was just around the corner) seemed to drag on and on… No one tells you that as you get…
