Chocolate pudding has always been one of my go-to comfort foods. It’s rich and creamy and a perfect ending to lovely dinner.
It’s also great as a mid-day snack for my little one. But these days, we are all gluten-free & cow dairy-free so pudding has been removed from our home….UNTIL NOW!
Fall is here and nothing reminds me of the season more than pumpkin. It doesn’t seem to matter what form it takes, I love pumpkin anything!
But put pumpkin in a smoothie bowl – and it just about tops everything else pumpkin! So now you are probably asking yourself, what’s a smoothie bowl? Well, it’s exactly what it sounds like. A smoothie that is made thick enough to place in a bowl and eat with a spoon. The best thing about smoothie bowls is you can top it with your favorite healthy toppings, anything from granola to berries, sliced fruit to nuts and seeds or even dates and extra spices. This makes a smoothie bowl so much more satisfying than a smoothie in a glass. It’s that spoon/fork to mouth relationship with food that gives you the feeling that you actually ate a meal rather than just sipped a drink. In other words, it’s perfect!
Happy summer, folks!!
Don’t argue, because it is soooooo summer right now.
I don’t even care if it’s actually still two weeks away, Florida got the memo early, as usual.
We even had an out-of-season tropical system brewing a few weeks ago! I mean, really.
Go home, Mother Nature, you’re drunk.
When I think of summer, I think of sun-hats, cold beer, lazy afternoons by the pool, and all-day picnics by the grill with lots of snacks to keep your tummy full until dinner is ready. I don’t know about you, but I can imagine a big bowl of this Chunky Fruit Salsa right in the middle of everything! [Read more…]
Natasha here! If you follow my blog at all, you know that I love eating seasonally. It’s something I have been growing in the more I learn about food. It’s hard to tell what’s in season when shopping at the local grocery stores, so I like to do a little internet research to find out or pop by our Saturday Farmer’s Market in town to see what’s out!
