One of my clients told me she used quinoa in place of granola in her yogurt parfaits.  I LOVE this idea! So I whipped up a recipe to share with you! Check out this yumminess.  Russ and I love to add quinoa to our hot breakfast cereals.  We toss in steel cut oats and oat […]

Did I mention that I LOVE Pinterest!  It’s such a fun website to find new recipe inspirations.  Click here to follow my pinterest boards (I have a couple dedicated to low FODMAP recipes)  I ‘pin’ mostly healthy foods but of course, some recipes I pin because they just look fun and tasty. I found this […]

Russ and I headed to Tangerini’s Spring Street Farm this weekend to pick up our first winter share.  Wow!  We came home with 2 FULL bags filled with produce from the sweetest carrots ever, pounds of potatoes (both sweet and white), butternut squash, broccoli, radishes and the largest beet I have ever seen, really… And […]

Again, I was inspired by a recipe on Pinterest.  Honestly, that site is so addictive.  This week’s recipe find was a delicious looking sweet potato concoction. Here is the original post. It looks amazing, but it is not at all  FODMAPs friendly.  So I modified the recipe, as I have been known to do. 🙂 […]

That is why, I love my slow cooker. Simple add your favorite risotto ingredients […]

I love anything made with corn meal and creamy polenta is one of my favorites. Like mashed potatoes and gravy, polenta is truly a comfort food (and perhaps a bit healthier.) Just look at this creaminess dish of love. Being married to an Italian, I do like to experiment with traditional Italian dishes.  Polenta is […]

I am a chicken fan. {Just saying’} I admire those that can eat a vegetarian diet but my body and taste buds do enjoy a bit of  meat. Today I made a Cheesy Yogurt and Herb Chicken.  Serious yum. Very moist and very savory.   I am not a steak or burger fan and can […]

I know all of you that follow my blog are not ‘all about FODMAPs’ so bear with me while I just provide some well-needed updates to my FODMAP peeps. Last week, I was BEYOND excited when I found a little brown envelope addressed to me…all the way from Australia! Last September I was very fortunate […]

I am not gonna lie here, I am so all about cute packaging.  I love cute cards, wrapping paper and trimmings and as a foodie, I have to admit, I love when my food is displayed beautifully or packaged up with care. So…I was drawn to this cute little popcorn box. Such simple graphics that […]
