First of all, this is awesome:

I’ve been super busy and distracted and in pain. Sorry. I had tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy a couple of weeks ago. The recovery was super painful and understandably my appetite was gone and looking at good food that I couldn’t eat only made me angry! I’m happy to report that I’m almost back to eating normal food again, and I’ve found a few inspiration recipes for when I’m fully recovered. Check them out at their original homes for now and expect some variations and reviews from when I actually get around to making them. This month doesn’t look to be slowing down due to this, but we still have to eat, so hopefully I’ll find time to share!

This amazing salad and website!

Delicious no gelatin no bake cheesecake! I’m obsessed and need a reason to make this (i.e. dinner guests so I don’t eat the entire thing!)

Homemade Oats and Cashew Milk. This looks so creamy and delicious!

Banana Batter Cookies from 101Cookbooks. Bananas are indeed a superfood!

Homemade ice cream cones from a panini press! We recently found ourselves with this seemingly single use appliance, but if it can make gf ice cream cones…I’m ok with finding a place for it! (I’ll definitely report back on the batter adaptation to gf and the outcome of utilizing the press!

Oh, and I soooo wanted to make this for the 4th, but we’ll see. So patriotic!

Have a great holiday weekend!
