WWHHYY? Why are most of the lactation cookies filled with inflammatory ingredients such as refined white flour and tons of sugar? I am beyond confused and concerned about this. Lactation cookies are meant to support a breastfeeding mama who needs all the nourishing nutrients so you can provide for her baby. See more below.

Prep Time: 30 minutes, plus 2 hours freezing time minimum

Dang it’s hot out, with all this heat all I want to do is eat ice cream! So, during COVID I have been working on my ice cream skills. The first 2 rounds I made ice cream scrambled eggs and I still ate it because I spent a ton of time prepping the fresh passionfruit in it. The good news is I recently nailed it with a little help from my favorite alternative bakers over at Sweet Laurel, if you love baking gluten and grain-free they are your girls. Their stuff is amazing and since I am far from a great baker, they help inspire me. This ice cream recipe is simple once you get down the basics. Compared to store-bought ice cream this is so much healthier for you, no fillers, additives, high sugar, artificial flavors etc. I use this ice cream maker and always just keep the insert in the freezer.

Prep Time: 2 hours with soaking and freezing

Who doesn’t love cheesecake? Well, my stomach doesn't, way to much cream and sugar leaves me feeling … ya gross. I decided to use strawberries as the base since they came in my CSA box, but feel free to sub in your favorite fruit or keep it plain with just vanilla. Feel free to cook the crust if you do not want it chewy, but then it's not raw anymore :)

Prep Time: 15 min

Affogato as a dessert or an afternoon pick me up remind me of my grandpa, Pop. Its warm coffee poured over ice cream, so dang good. You can use whatever flavor ice cream you like and feel free to get creative with your toppings. Happy summer!

As most of you know I would not call myself a"baker" by any means. I always try to make something healthier or add some crazy ingredient like an adaptogen reishi powder and end up ruining it. This summer galette was inspired from some seasonal rhubarb I received from a local farm and I thought it would be super fun to try out it out! I adapted this from Cannelle Vanille who has amazing recipes, basically so I would have less of a chance of screwing up. It actually turned out really good, tart but good. I am afraid of sugar since it leads to disease and inflammation, so I did my best to keep it low sugar, that where a scoop of ice cream helps.

I use New Barn because they care about quality ingredients which unfortunately nowadays is not the case with most companies. They make it with ingredients you would use at home, ones you can pronounce! I was a bit hesitant when trying this out even though I love New Barns almond milk which I have been using for a while now and recommending to my clients. This combo is super easy and is a great base for whatever fun topping you have on hand; hemp seeds, berries, nuts, a chocolate drizzle.  Hey, I don't say to eat desserts often but when you do, make sure they aren't going to hurt you and your gut, make it worth it and make it taste delicious.

I took a healthy boxed mix and added some superfoods to give it a yummy immunity and fiber boost.

Okay, who doesn't love a lemon bar? I mean really, they are so dang good, but loaded with sugar, processed white flour, and more sugar. So being the baker that I am (NOT I am horrible at baking, this took me 3 times) I personally think this recipe is BOMB, no sugar or gluten, but yes a lot of butter.

Everyone likes to make chia puddings and everyone loves chocolate, right? Well they both have been blowing up my Instagram feed lately! I decided to of course create recipes that are a little different, healthier, but never comprising flavor. This creamy mousse is loaded with antioxidants and inflammatory ingredients and I bet even the kiddos will indulge!

This recipe is dairy free, gluten free, and as close as you can be to sugar free when having a rootbeer float :)

I call these fluffy "cake" cookies for a reason, you will see shortly :) These babies are gluten free & dairy free. If you do not have cashew meal, you can make it by grinding up cashews.
