Finding Radiance

I found this recipe on Pinterest when I first started pinning and it didn’t take long for me to make them.  The original recipe is from Recipe Girl and I edited a bit for our smaller household.  Easy enough and the ingredients were already in the house!  Double score. Ingredients: Note – I like to go [...]

So, you all know how I love my 1-minute muffin and all it’s permutations, right? Well, I got thinking about using a banana it to make more of a pancake batter and a little on the sweet side.  The result? Grain free and gluten free.  Now there are a couple tricks with this recipe, so [...]

I don’t normally follow Meatless Monday on purpose, but sometimes it happens that I do all vegetarian meals.  We were out yesterday for breakfast and there was Rachael Ray’s magazine there, so I was reading that. I have never read her magazine before and there sure are a lot of recipes in it! LOL.  Anyway, [...]

Off to the gym this morning! It was surprisingly warm in the 40s. We have had warm weather the last few days, but some snow is soon to come. Exercise Set/rep/weight Muscle worked Lying Leg Press 3 sets of 10 at 100# Lower Body Straight Leg deadlift 3 sets of 10 with 70# bar Low [...]

How about a Monday recipe post for a change?  Seeing as you all don’t want to see me on a weekday without the espresso machine… One is on the way, though. And….. my magazine article came out and I have not gotten a copy yet, so I will talk about that on Tuesday!!  Eeeee – [...]

Fall and winter are the time for warm soups!  I don’t care for canned soup very much, but I forget to make my own.  I do like the Pacific Foods soups and I tried a roasted red pepper and tomato one.  I wanted to make something similar that would be grain free that I could [...]

These turned out pretty good, so I thought I would share the recipe! It’s kind of based on the 1-minute muffin recipe.  When going grain free, the biggest challenge is wanting baked goods.  You all know I love the coconut flour, but I wanted to try the almond flour as it is a little easier [...]

There are the Magic Rolls, which have gluten in them, but tasty.  Then there are the Oopsie Rolls, which are gluten and grain free!  These are an easy alternative for buns.  This is the recipe by Jamie of Your Lighter Side. The nice part about this recipe? 3 ingredients. Please head over to Jamie’s site [...]

I was up and ready to take my body that I love so much to the gym!  There actually was no one in the free weights section – Squeeee!!! Privacy!  I even took a picture. To the left is what is called the cardio deck.  It is a raised area in the center of the gym [...]

Fall is all about the pumpkin n’est pas?  I am loaded for bear with pumpkin now.   I wanted to make my whole wheat pumpkin scones, but since I am limiting the wheat, I wanted to see how well making them gluten free would turn out.  Turns out pretty well, as a matter of fact! [...]
