Peach Cake

A few years ago my friend Susi Dokken taught me how to make her melt-in-your-mouth gluten-free plum torte. So, when I had summer peaches laying around I just swapped the plums for the peaches and dare I say… I might be in love with this peach cake even more?? Thanks to a lovely amount of […]

pink frosted sugar cookies

read the post

I have to be honest. I’m mostly drawn to these gluten-free pink frosted sugar cookies for one superficial reason — their looks. I tend to love serving pretty things.

Balsamic Dressing

read the post

This is my new go-to dressing that elevates any salad to a whole gastronomic level. White balsamic is much milder than regular balsamic dressing. I like it for its unique flavor and its mild sweetness. If you can get your hands on mango-flavored white balsamic, you’ll be in for a win as the mango gives […]

cauliflower salad

I have a random obsession with copying restaurant salads. I mean, it clearly stems from my general obsession with outrageously craveable salads – and a desire to replicate my cravings at home.
