Veggies Nuggets


So, after looking Weelicious video I couldn't wait to make these for the hubs (and of course practice for the kids we will have later ... later .... later), so I gathered all my stuff and got to work on them. They are really nice, they are healthy, a good alternative, beautiful, and best of all, homemade! So, give them a try and let me know how it goes =)

Wheat Germ Pizza Dough


so looking for healthier alternatives to the hubs favorite meals, I found somewhere on the Internet, and I'm sorry, I don't remember where (maybe Yahoo answers??) this recipe for a pizza crust made of wheat germ. I decided to give it a shot, and the hubs liked it. He says it tastes like bread, haha. But I made it in a "baking sheet", so the crust wouldn't be toasted, it would be soft. Next time i'll try it out in the toasted way and let you know!

Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese

 

So, I've been craving for pumpkin since spring =) and I was a little sad because last year I couldn't find butternut squash or acorn squash. So I decided to go and take a look in supermarkets to see if they decided to import some this year. And they did!! So I bought many of them and decided to make some of the recipes I had always wanted to try! And here's one of them. I followed Centsational Girl's recipe. And it was delicious!

Clean Chocolate Cups


So, in this new journey we are living, I have to find clean and "whole" desserts to crave the hubs' sweet tooth. I'm more fan of salty junk food, but the hubs, oh, the hubs loooooves chocolates, ice cream and all kinds of sweets. So I looked at many recipes for candida, gluten free, and more, and I found this one, from LeAna, I adapted it and I loved it. They are really good, you should try them. The hubs ended up loving them, so he wants to eat one a day. I'd say it's ok... and you?

No-Cream of Asparagus


Ok, so fall is here and I love soups. I love them all year long, but I love them the most on fall and winter. A rainy day, with a blanket or a duvet, and a delicious and warm and cozy and homemade and healthy comfort food. Ha! So I made this delicios no-cream added cream of asparagus. And believe me, it was amazing. You should give it a try and let me know what would you change or how do you like it.
