Canada’s Wonderland Funnel Cakes Won’t Be Missed – Make ‘Em At Home!

lilsugar

My family and I have been Canada’s Wonderland ambassadors for many years now, but what is more important is that we have also been members of the park for years before that. When I was little we’d visit with my parents annually, and as a teen my very first job was at Canada’s Wonderland. The park has been a huge part of making memories ever since I can remember. One of the things that we revisit upon park opening every year is indulging in their famous funnel cakes. Funnel cakes…

Loaded Burrito Bowl Recipe

lilsugar

It’s no secret that I am slightly in love with all recipes that call for a little bit of chorizo. I make these healthy burrito bowls for myself at least once a week for lunch or a quick dinner option because they are so easy to make and taste amazing. If I am being completely honest, I do not like vegetables. I know, I am a horrible example of a grown woman but it’s the truth. It takes a lot for me to eat healthy on a regular basis and…

Bananas are a staple in our home and there always seems to be a few browning on the counter top that need to be used. Finding ways to use up those bananas has become a chore in it’s self around here, if you are anything like I am then you hate to throw out food and will do anything it takes to use up every last bite.

No Butter Snickerdoodle Cookie Recipe

lilsugar

Around this time of year I love to bake, particularly really strong smelling Christmas type cookies. Something about cinnamon or gingerbread that makes cozy winter afternoons seem like the holidays. This year I came across a simple recipe that I just had to share with my readers. This snickerdoodle recipe makes the most soft and chewy cookies that smell just like Christmas morning. The kids and I are thinking of purchasing clear boxes and gifting them for friends, family and teachers complete with a big red ribbon – makes the…

Keto Friendly Almond Flour Bread

The first thing people think of when they start to watch their carbohydrate intake is BREAD – where to get it and how to eat it without indulging in the processed stuff. I mean, 2 days into my new diet and I was itching for a sandwich all of a sudden. Self restraint is a funny thing, someone tells you that you can’t have a certain food anymore and voila – instant craving for that EXACT food! Keto Almond Bread is the solution folks! After numerous attempts at finding a…

Chickpea Vegan Meringue Recipe

lilsugar

With Easter around the corner and SO many reasons to indulge, I thought it would be best to have some ‘healthy’ alternative sweets in my home so I don’t over indulge on the bad stuff. In my world, nothing is better than a meringue or pavlova – nothing stands a chance to its sweet, crunchy texture and yummy goodness – nothing BUT this copycat version using….are you ready…CHICKPEAS!! Who would have thought this bland yellowish seed would produce a white creamy dessert? Well, get ready because it does just that…

Easy Low Carb Cloud Bread

lilsugar

I have had a love-hate relationship with making cloud bread. Seems in the past every time I attempted to make these ‘low carb’ buns they flopped and failed —until now! My research and patience have paid off and I now know how easy these adorable little pieces of heaven can be. Next time I make them I will try larger loafs and/or small chip like versions, but these buns are delish the way they are none the less. The kids even loved having them with deli meat and a little…
