Recipe Roundup: 4th of July

June 30, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

recipe roundup

It’s almost time for the 4th of July, which is awesome and crazy at the same time. Where did June go??? Before you know it, the kids will be back in school (hallelujah!) and everything will be pumpkin spiced again. But until then, let’s enjoy the heat with a good old American cookout that isn’t artery-clogging and heartburn inducing, shall we?…

DIY: Sunburn Spray

June 29, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

sunburn spray

It’s been way too long since I’ve created a DIY post, so I’m super excited to share the recipe for this Sunburn Spray! Last week my family went to Amelia Island for a conference, so I made up this spray to test before posting it. I know that no matter how many times I apply sunscreen, I always get burned at the beach. And, what do ya know, I burned the backs of my knees during a surfing lesson on the first day. OUCH.

On the plus side, I was able to try out my sunburn spray! And I must say, this spray saved the trip! I actually looked forward to using it because it soothed my burned skin, moisturized, and smelled so good! I basically sprayed it on my legs every time I was in my hotel room, and especially before I went to bed. Ahhhhhhh . . . …

Pizza Cashew Cheese

June 13, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

pizza cashew cheese

A couple of weeks ago, my husband came up to me and said, “You know what you haven’t made in a long time? Cashew cheese. Can you make that pizza cashew cheese that I like?” Um . . . I’ve never made pizza cashew cheese before, but that sounded delicious! He was probably thinking of a sun-dried tomato basil version I made a long time ago, but regardless, I set out to make him a pizza version. What resulted was my new favorite cashew cheese flavor, so I had to share the recipe! …

Basic Cashew Cheese

June 12, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

cashew cheese

One of the most difficult aspects of changing to a plant-based diet is giving up cheese. Many people are unable to make diet changes for this very reason. But once you know that there are many cheese replacements that are creamy and satisfying, you may never want to go back! Today I’m sharing a basic cashew cheese recipe that I’ve been using (and perfecting) for about seven years. I’ve served it during the holidays and at parties with great reviews! Honestly, I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to post this recipe. It’s a family favorite! …

Ethiopian Roasted Brussels Sprouts

June 8, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

Ethiopian Roasted Brussels Sprouts

These bright and flavorful Ethiopian Roasted Brussels Sprouts are my second roasted Brussels sprouts post in my series of 3. The first post was for “Cheesy Roasted Brussels Sprouts,” which are great for kids and people who enjoy savory, non-spicy foods. But these Ethiopian roasted sprouts are perfect for people like me who like lots of flavor with a little kick. And since I’m always finding new ways to add turmeric to my diet for its anti-inflammatory properties, I added some of that too! …

Peach Buckwheat Donuts

June 6, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

peach buckwheat donuts

Apparently National Donut Day was just last week, but if I’d realized that, I would have gotten my act together and perfected this recipe in time to post it then. But really, do we need a special day of the year to enjoy a good donut? NOPE.

I’d recently bought half a peck of peaches from the Abbott Farms stand, and I was eager to use them in some sort of dessert recipe. I’d also been wanting to experiment with buckwheat flour, so out of my test kitchen came these earthy, peach buckwheat donuts that are surprisingly good for you!…

“Cheesy” Roasted Brussels Sprouts

June 2, 2017 by maryrossfowler Leave a Comment

cheesy roasted brussels

For some reason I’ve been on a huge roasted Brussels sprouts kick lately, so this post is really Part 1 of 3 roasted sprouts recipes (woohoo!). Now don’t get me wrong — plain roasted Brussels sprouts are great, but it’s fun to change things up every now and then. This first recipe turned out beautifully, which resulted in my eating a pound of sprouts while standing over the baking pan. Seriously, these Cheesy Roasted Brussels Sprouts are addictive! …
