I’m so excited to be sharing this simple recipe for nut-free and dairy-free Sunbutter Cup Popcorn (think Reese’s Cup Popcorn, without the dairy and nuts).

The last few recipes I have attempted have all been recipes found in magazines. I don’t tend to read magazines often, but I will tear out or take pictures of recipes that I’d like to try.

Quick side note: Over the last month, I’ve taken a bit of a break from the blog. Along with my husband’s new job, moving to new a place, and getting a puppy (who is the cutest little terror), I also received some criticism of my blog, which caused some discouragement. I received a message from…Continue Reading “Egg-Free, Dairy-Free Vanilla Cupcakes”
I cannot tell you how many dairy-free fudge recipes I have tried, that have turned into a soupy, grainy mess.

Since then,…Continue Reading “Dairy-Free Fudge (That Honestly Tastes like Real Fudge!)”
Having been born with life-threatening food allergies, I have faced disappointments that those without allergies would not understand. I’ve sat at the nut-free table from kindergarten through eighth grade. I’ve been to countless parties where I couldn’t eat a thing.
