Easy Cranberry Crisp {no gluten, dairy, nuts, eggs or refined sugar}

Kimball@ Heavy on Wholesome — Fri, 20 Dec 2013 20:12:24 +0000

I am so excited to share this recipe! I grew up eating a dessert my aunt made called Cranberry Crunch. It’s always been my favorite dessert. In fact, I love it so much I always have it on my birthday instead of a cake. I don’t like overly sweet treats, so the tartness of the cranberries is just perfect. We also always served it on Thanksgiving. So, this year I decided to revamp the recipe so we could enjoy it {Read More}

I bet you’ve heard that dark chocolate is good for you. Do you know why? All chocolate is made from cacao (pronounced kuh-COW), the edible part of a cocoa bean. The cacao is removed, fermented and processed into a liquid called cocoa liquor. Cocoa liquor is then combined with other ingredients such as sugar, milk solids and cocoa butter to achieve solid chocolate. To create cocoa powder, cocoa liquor is pressed to squeeze some of the cocoa butter out of {Read More}

Quinoa Pizza Crust {Gluten-free}

Kimball@ Heavy on Wholesome — Mon, 12 Nov 2012 16:00:00 +0000

What they say is true, you know. That necessity is the mother of all invention. And that desperate times call for desperate measures. That’s how this pizza crust came to be. A few nights ago, when all my children had gone to bed, and I was picking up after the day I realized I needed to come up with something for their lunches the next day. We were low on their favorite lunch staples, and even if I {Read More}

Each week I get a delivery of produce from our local CSA. It is all organic, and gorgeous, and delicious. I look forward to Wednesdays to see what I’m going to find in my box. This week I added 30 pounds of peaches to my order. I’ve had two giant boxes of peaches on my counter for two days. Waiting for the peaches to ripen has been hard for me- I’m impatient! Today they were perfect, so I spent the {Read More}

Lemon Blueberry Ginger Muffins

Kimball@ Heavy on Wholesome — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 17:07:00 +0000

Have you ever wondered what distinguishes a muffin from a cupcake? I have. And apparently the answer is not simple. Some say cupcakes are frosted while muffins are not. Some say cupcakes contain butter while muffins contain oil. Some say the only difference is that muffins usually contain nuts or fruit. And others think the difference is all in the amount of sugar in the batter. So, even if you’re not sure what you should call these, call your family {Read More}

Pumpkin & Pomegranate Two Ways

Kimball@ Heavy on Wholesome — Thu, 03 Feb 2011 06:21:00 +0000

I love, love, love pumpkin. Canned pumpkin puree is a staple in our pantry. I add it to everything I can think of, because not only is it delicious, it is super nutritious! We eat so much of it at our house (and sweet potatoes and carrots) that our pediatrician noticed at Happy’s last check-up that the tip of his nose is slightly orange from all the beta carotene. On the other hand, pomegranate seeds are my new obsession. Have {Read More}

Whole Wheat and Flax Tortillas

Kimball@ Heavy on Wholesome — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 17:33:00 +0000

When we found out we were going to be moving to California, one of the first things my husband said to me was that he hoped I’d learn to make homemade tortillas. We eat a lot of tortillas in our family. A lot of tortillas. And the whole wheat ones I buy are not only hard to find, but they are expensive. So, today I finally gave it a go. And they are good. Really good warm. Whole Wheat and {Read More}
