So in case you are wondering, I'm not a vegan. I definitely do eat my share of organic eggs and grass-fed meats & dairy. But I absolutely love throwing some vegan recipes into the mix every once in awhile... Especially when its a recipe that involves a cookie dough I can save and still eat raw the day after:) Maybe you love cookie dough too and end up eating more than you bake? If so, you will . . .

GLUTEN-FREE BROWNIES
We have all made brownies from a box. It's quick and easy. But there is just no comparison for a chocolate brownie made from scratch. It's delicious and decadent, nothing processed... just REAL food.

Mini Paleo Cheesecake Bites… yes please with a cherry on top!
Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts. I get excited every time I see it on a menu or at a party. My mind can't help but wonder about what ingredients the chef used and how fresh or processed it is. Luckily, these hesitations keep me from indulging way too much. Now that I have this healthy recipe, I can have my own cheesecake–and eat it too! I love that there is barely any sugar except for a . . .
10 minute Grain-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
When it comes to desserts I am not very picky, especially if I know it is made with healthy ingredients... I'm a stevia junkie and just happy to have something sweet! My husband is the opposite. You would think I married a cookie connoisseur. He wants to enjoy his desserts to the max–all that matters is flavor. I have tried to fool him many times with my gluten free version of his favorite . . .
Gut healing Coconut Fudge
One of my childhood besties gave me this recipe a couple years ago and I have been obsessed ever since... Thank you my dear friend Lisa Zukowsky <3 On cold winter weekends nights in Connecticut I prefer to stay snuggled up inside and put my Apple TV to use:) On occasion, my husband will go play poker with the guys and I choose to enjoy a quiet night in by myself.
