Italian Cauliflower Cheese Sticks

September 22, 2015 By Christina Russell 1 Comment

Cauliflower is the new black.

Thanks to Pinterest, cauliflower has gone from the bottom to the top of most grocery lists. I have never been a huge cauliflower fan myself, but after my successful Cilantro Cauliflower Rice recipe, I have turned over a new leaf. I am such a big advocate of getting more fruit and veggies into my family’s diet and if cauliflower is what it takes, then I am totally on board!

The last time my family went out to eat at our favorite pizza joint, I saw the couple at the table next to us chowing down on some incredible looking cheese sticks. From that night on, I’ve been craving them. Problem is…I’m gluten intolerant and I have yet to find a restaurant or grocery store that makes anything but gluten-free pizza.

Rainbow Carrot Cutlets

The summer always makes me think of bright beautiful colors like rainbows, sunflowers and oh-so-delicious food!

I feel like I have always had a love affair with pretty food. The more colorful – the more I want to eat it!

I started noticing the deep purple eggplant, those sunshine yellow spaghetti squash and those bright orange bell peppers.

Hummingbird Cake

I finally got around to baking a Hummingbird Cake! Yay me! Now, some of you are probably saying, what in the world is a Hummingbird Cake? Well, I would have said the same thing a few years ago but, since then, I have had a piece in almost every restaurant that advertises it in the Florida Keys. I kept telling myself I was going to make one day, and it would be even better than any I had tasted, and that day finally came. And I couldn’t be happier with the results (although my waistline might complain a little because it’s so hard to resist!).

The cake turned out rich, spicy, a little nutty and full of the fruity goodness of bananas and pineapple. It’s a tropical treat not to be missed!

I love BBQs! I honestly do. In spite of my vehement hatred of almost everything summer, BBQs are the one thing I actually look forward to in warm weather.

I adore the idea of gathering around a big picnic table with friends and family, an array of grilled food before me, beckoning me to indulge in at least one of everything.

There are some days, however, when you want the feel of a summer BBQ without the hassle, and these Bacon-Wrapped Summer BBQ Hot Dogs are an amazing solution for those days! [Read more…]
