I'm a big fan of baked goods. If you've been here for any amount of time, you know that's probably an understatement. Whether it's muffins or cookies or brownies, I love them all. And being gluten free doesn't have to mean giving up all those yummy baked goods. It just means getting a little creative sometimes. This recipe came about because I had some extra zucchini that needed to be used up. Sometimes I turn to Grandma Winter's Pumpkin Zucchini Bread, but I didn't have any … [Read more...]
Grocery Breakdown: March 2019
I feel like I'm finally getting into the groove of shopping and planning here.

But foods that maybe wouldn't normally be paired together and yet they're delicious? Today's post is for you, weird foodie. I first had potatoes on pizza in my college years from Topper's Pizza. They're still around, and they still have a potato pizza, but they've changed it from what it used to be. So this recipe … [Read more...]
Grocery Breakdown: February 2018
I don't know about where you live, but our weather in February was all over the place. Some days it was freezing, and we wanted soup. Some days it was nearly 80 degrees, and we wanted ice cream. My menu plans were still mostly in the winter weather mindset, but every now and then we changed things up. Saturday, February 2: Aldi $9.05 We needed mini peppers for making nachos as part of our Superbowl feast, and Jesse offered to go to the store for me. He grabbed a few extras … [Read more...]
