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}

Huevos Rancheros {My Favorite Meal Of All Time}

Kimball@ Heavy on Wholesome — Tue, 15 May 2012 14:00:00 +0000

Huevos Rancheros is a traditional Mexican breakfast that usually consists of a corn tortilla and an egg with some sort of tomato sauce. I’ve eaten it in many restaurants and each has their own version. This is my version- that I eat at least once a week. It is our go-to meal for anytime of day.

Turkey Mini Meatballs

After weeks (yikes!) away, I’m baa-aack! I could go into detail about what’s been going on at our house that’s pulled me away from this blog (and cooking much for that matter), but it’s really more appropriate for our private family blog. Plus, you likely don’t really care- you just want a recipe. Right? One thing I will tell you is that during a lovely day at the beach with the boys watching Daddy surf, I got sand in my {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}
