Cauliflower Will Never Be Potatoes
Every year, after the holiday season the cauliflower recipes start showing up all over facebook. Everyone is making their dietary changes for the new year, and for some unexplained reason, the no-carb contingency thinks that pretending cauliflower tastes like potatoes is a good thing. I happen to be a huge […]
Delicious Pumpkin Muffins with Dried Cranberries
If you are anything like I am, back in November when all the holiday baking items were on sale, you picked up a half dozen or so cans of pumpkin puree to tuck away in the pantry. I was remembering how a couple of years ago there was actually a […]
Homemade Fruity Gummies
With Valentines Day coming up this next weekend, I thought this was a perfect time to share about these interesting homemade candies. This was one of those recipes that popped up in my facebook feed a while back, and once I saw what it was, and what it was made […]
Product Review: Keurig 2.0
It is no secret that I am a BIG coffee fan. I love coffee. I drink several cups a day, hit up Starbucks, Gloria Jeans, or Caribou when I can, and have even taken to keeping coffee flavored candies in my purse for when I can’t have a cup close […]

Happy Birthday Zander!!
Eleven years ago you came into this world and filled my heart near-to-bursting. Your care and compassion for others is one of my favorite things about you, as well as your enthusiastic spirit to try anything once. You have a heart of gold- you truly are a Super Hero! […]
Snickerdoodle Blondies
It’s Birth Week here at the Tummy Treasure home, and that means several different variations of birthday treats for the birthday boy. Zander turns eleven on Tuesday, if you can believe it! That’s practically a teenager! On Tuesday he’ll be taking a birthday treat to dance, but since my young […]
Cooking Class: Panna Cotta
I have never had a Panna Cotta before. I admit that a part of it never really appealed to me- a milky flavored gelatin type of dish? How could that really be good? That was my train of thinking. So when Abigail chose Panna Cotta as her Italian dessert to […]
Perfect Pie Crust
Your Grandma has always been right. Lard really does make the best pie crust. After making it a few times now, I can say that I have perfected my recipe, and am now ready to share it. While I did render my own lard, and I store it in […]
