5 of my favorite healthier treats


Hi Reader,

I've got a big sweet tooth, so I love creating healthier treats that I can enjoy any time.

These treats are simple to prepare and are great for almost any special diet. Plus you can enjoy them pretty much any time of day!

My favorite combination is peanut butter and chocolate -- so my flourless peanut butter cookies are my go-to!

Happy baking!

My Top 5 Healthier Treats

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

These are my favorite cookies! They include just a few ingredients, and they're ready in 30 minutes from start to finish!

Almond Flour Lemon Loaf Cake

Love citrus? This cake is for you! It's nutrient dense with a soft texture and plenty of lemon flavor. It's topped with an optional (but highly recommended) lemon glaze that takes it over the top!

Chocolate Chia Pudding

If you've never tried chia pudding, it will take you by surprise! This is so chocolatey and decadent and it takes mere minutes to make. Be sure and try my coconut and banana versions as well!

Greek Almond Cookies (Amygdalota)

These classic Greek cookies are irresistibly crunchy and chewy! If you love almonds, this recipe is a must-try!

Protein Peanut Butter Cups

I love having a stash of these in the fridge! They're so much better than store bought candies and include a protein boost from protein powder!

Slow roasted citrus salmon

Hi Reader, There are a few ingredients I always keep on hand because I know they’ll make almost anything I’m cooking taste better. What's my favorite secret ingredient? Dijon mustard.
