Happy Thanksgiving week, friends! Can you believe that Thanksgiving is only a few short days away? Are you excited? I am looking forward to cooking without taking pictures, spending time with family and friends in Wisconsin, and of course eating a lot of food. Paul and I are being a little crazy this year; we are getting up early on Thanksgiving morning to run a 5k at 7 am. Yes, I do agree, we’re crazy. Especially for wanting to run outside in the cold Wisconsin November weather. Guess what, … [Read more...]
Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie
Okay friends, now that we’re doing this whole Thanksgiving-menu- planning thing I have another recipe for you. It is a no-fail crowd pleaser, pumpkin pie. What kind of Thanksgiving is it without pumpkin pie? Of course there is pecan or apple pie, and I love both, but in my opinion nothing beats a good, creamy, perfectly spiced pumpkin pie. Can you believe that I have yet to make a pie here on Robust Recipes? It’s pretty shocking considering how much I love a good homemade pie. Here’s the … [Read more...]
Homemade Applesauce
We are fortunate enough to have this little apple orchard not too far from us. Every fall since we have moved to the area I have enjoyed going to the apple orchard to stock up on apples for a few weeks. I seem to have a problem of buying way too many apples when I go to the orchard. All of the apples look so beautiful, fresh, and juicy that I get really excited. I find it hard to stop loading up my bag. I keep wanting more apples. Before I know it, I have purchased 6 pounds of apples when I … [Read more...]
Gluten Free Jalapeno Cornbread Muffins
CORNBREAD MUFFINS!!! Yes, I am so excited about this recipe that I had to type it in all caps! If there is anyone out there who doesn’t like cornbread, especially in muffin form, and especially slathered with butter and honey, then I’m sorry but we can’t be friends anymore. KIDDING! But not really. In my very humble opinion corn bread should be fine in texture; use the fine ground corn flour. Cornbread should be tender; you don’t want it so dry that it gets stuck in your throat as you’re … [Read more...]
Strawberry Cucumber Salad with Creamy Lemon Poppy Seed Dressing
With the approach of fall just around the corner I simply had to sneak in one more summery salad recipe! If baby spinach, strawberries, cucumbers, and Creamy Lemon Poppy Seed Dressing don’t scream summer, then I’ve got it all wrong! During the summer I always have a huge container of organic, pre-trimmed, pre-washed baby spinach leaves in my fridge just waiting for me to make use of it in a salad. Being a huge fan of whisking up my own salad dressing, I have been playing around with creamy … [Read more...]
Chocolate Raspberry Swirl Ice Cream Sandwiches (V + GF)
If you still have some Raspberry Swirl Chocolate Chip Ice Cream left after an entire week, you’re pretty amazing and I’m proud of you! I literally had to hide mine in the back of the freezer behind the uncooked chicken and the frozen fruit in order to deter myself and to make Paul forget that it exists. Since we exercised so much restraint I think we deserve a little treat as a reward, don’t you? Chocolate Raspberry Swirl Ice Cream Sandwiches. They combine the ice cream recipe from last week … [Read more...]
Raspberry Swirl Chocolate Chip Ice Cream (V)
Ice cream + raspberries + a little chocolate = the ultimate dessert! Look, look! A math equation that I actually understand! You didn’t think I would let summer pass by without at least one more ice cream recipe, did you? When I was brainstorming flavor ideas for an ice cream recipe, I knew I wanted it to be a little fruity with a hint of chocolate (duh). Raspberry is one of my all-time favorite summer fruits. Just like that, Raspberry Swirl Chocolate Chip Ice Cream was born! Let’s discuss … [Read more...]
Bacon and Egg Breakfast Muffins (GF)
Bacon and eggs in a muffin?!? Whhhhaaaattt???! You crazy?!?! Maybe. Okay yes, I’m a little crazy. Here’s the thing. I am not a big sweet breakfast person. Muffins, pancakes and cereal make me want to take a nap right after I eat them and then I tend to be cranky for the remainder of the day. That’s not exactly the way I want to start my day. This is the reason you don’t see many pancake or waffle recipes on this site. To start my day off on the right foot I usually eat 2 eggs and some sort … [Read more...]
Cherry Limeade
Welcome to July! How did we get here and what happened to June? Summer is hands down my favorite time of year. I love spending time outside, even on hot days. You know those really scalding hot days where all you want to do is sit in front of a fan and not move? I experience those types of days often throughout the summer, especially because we don’t have central air in our charming, 105-year-old house. Don’t worry, we have 2 window air conditioners, but there are still parts of our house that … [Read more...]
Strawberry Rhubarb and Honey Drink (2 Ways)
Guess what, guess what! I have a little vegetable/fruit/herb garden growing in my backyard. Aside from growing a few potted herbs on the small porch of our old apartment, I have never grown a single thing in my life. I cheated and purchased the already half-grown plants instead of starting them from seed. But hey, if I can keep them alive, that’s all that counts. Actually, we already lost one strawberry plant (yup, we got two of them). Some little critter dug it out of the ground only a … [Read more...]
