My Dad is not supposed to have sugar or gluten so it’s been challenging finding baked treats he can have that don’t taste terrible. This adaption of Confessions of a Fit Foodie’s Healthy Apple Muffins fit the bill. I used organic Pristine apples (tart cooking …
This recipe is a slightly modified version of Karen Bertelsen’s Garlic Scape Pesto and it is “knock your socks off” good. Thanks, Karen. Hey look, I did stuff (ha). June is garlic scape season and if you are lucky enough to grow your own garlic …
