Guava Cheesecake Bars

I served them with pomegranate seeds…because I serve everything with pomegranate seeds

Anyone who reads this blog with any regularity knows my semi-shameful secret by now – I’m a feeder.

Tasty Apple Tartlets (guest post)

these might be a good treat to leave out for Santa, I hear he’s gone Paleo this year

Today’s recipe is a guest post, courtesy of Louise from PaleoMagazine.com and taken from her recently released cookbook The Essential Paleo Cookbook, which features all manner of tasty things. I’ll be reviewing it at some point in the new year (and sharing more of their delicious recipes!) but in the meantime, here’s some Tasty Apple Tartlets to keep you going….

Maple Date Cookies

great with a glass of milk

If you’re making these for children you might want to warn them that the dark chunks are dates, not chocolate.

Paleo Shortbread

just like Walkers!

Now that Thanksgiving is out of the way it’s about time we focused on the most important part of the Christmas season – holiday baking.

No Bake Chocolate Fudge Squares (dairy free!)

chill n’ eat – what could be simpler?

Some people use rainy days to catch up on housework, call their loved ones, do some filing or simply read a book.

Happy Halloween!

this is Doug the pug dressed as bacon, I think we can all agree that he wins Halloween

I don’t celebrate this holiday, but I appreciate that there are those of you who do.

Mango Creamiscles (dairy-free!)

almost as good as ice cream….almost

Yet again I have (almost) survived a scorching Caribbean summer without buying an ice cream maker.

Pecan & Apricot Balls

good for kids big and little

What kind of bed does a monkey sleep in?

Ricotta & Honey Muffins

don’t worry, ricotta won’t make them cheesy in the least. It actually makes them spongy, moist and delightful

Ricotta’s one of those things that I buy for lasagne and then it languishes in the fridge until growing fuzzy green bits.

Double Chocolate Chip Power Bars

it’s the chef’s perogative to take the first bite

A few weeks ago my lovely internet friend Karen tried out my Banana Hemp Brownies
