It’s somewhat typical of me to throw myself into something with next to impossible standards from the get-go, which this summery tomato tart accidentally exemplifies perfectly. Haven’t baked a savory pastry anything in ten years? Why not start with attempting both a grain free crust and a dairy free ricotta filling right outta the gate?! […]
Vanilla Blueberry Granola (grain, nut & seed free)
If you’ve got a hankering for something to stand in for those chewy-crunchy cereals of yore, then this Vanilla Blueberry Granola is gonna deliver what you crave! The best part?
