‘Lala’ Truffles
‘Lala’ Truffles These are a combination between Lara bars, truffles, girl scout samoa cookies, and the best healthy food you ever ate!

fun friday: bacon wrapped hot dogs on a stick
by friday evenings, i am admittedly a little lazier in the kitchen. for awhile we did friday pizza night and splurged on gluten free pizzas – either homemade or delivered. however, in trying to phase dairy out of the house, i realized we needed another fun friday meal. voila! serve with my simply sweet potato chips or…

Homemade Chicken Broth
Lucky for us there are plenty of choices for organic broths these days. However, if you want to make your own, it is cost effective, simple, and much more nutrient dense.
