Welcome back to SIT!
Last week we had over 100 recipes – oh yes we did! Thank you for helping me spread the word that healthy food can be delicious.
Baby Talk…
I haven’t posted a Baby Green update lately but thought I’d let you know that our little guy will be here very, very soon.
SIT will continue each week but I won’t be posting Healthier Highlights once he gets here. I’m taking some time off to bond with our little miracle. So, keep coming back and when I can I’ll update you about the little addition to our family.
Healthier Highlights
My Picks
- Grain-Free, Date Sweetened Peanut Butter Fudge Cookies from The Mommy Bowl
- Chocolate Chip Pound Cake from Pumpkin’s Pantry
- Quinoa Pilaf with Red Bell Pepper, Leeks, Carrots, & Peas from Hobby and More
Even if you’re not a fan of cauliflower (and I am) you must stop by just to see Jenn’s pictures:
- Creamy Cauliflower Soup from Jenn Cuisine
Reader Favs
- Salted Caramel Ice Cream from Cara’s Cravings
- Paleo Muffin Tops from So Simply Good
A New Linky Party
Amber from The Tasty Alternative started a weekly new blog hop called Allergy-Free Wednesdays. Make sure to check it out!
Linking Up Guidelines:
- If you leave a link in the comments, my blog will automatically mark it as spam.
- Please link back to this post NOT A STATIC “BLOG PARTY PAGE” so that your readers can find the recipes here.
- Link to your individual post, NOT your home page.
- Recipes DO NOT have to be sugar-free or gluten-free – just healthier in some way. The idea is to share our ideas and inspire each other in the kitchen.
- When you link, please tell us what you’re cooking. For example, I might enter: Mixed Berry Scones

Thanks for the pick
And I just made your vegan pumpkin bread from a couple months back for the family. I doubled the recipe to fill a bunt pan and it’s almost gone- just made it last night! Everyone gave it 5 stars

Hello Amy,
Thank you so much for sharing our new Allergy-Free Wednesday’s Blog Hop! You’re too kind.
I’m glad you will be taking some time off to bond as a family. It’s an important, precious time!!
This week I’m sharing a twist on traditional applesauce: A Raw Cranberry Applesauce (or cranapple). Only 3 ingredients. Tart, refreshing, and delicious.
Have a wonderful week!
Hugs,
–Amber

Hi Amy,
This week I’m also sharing double chocolate hazelnut coconut cookies. These cookies really hit the spot and satisfied my rare chocolate craving.

I’m one of the Allergy-Free Wednesdays hosts. Thank you so very much for the shout out! You have a wonderful following here.
Congratulation on your impending baby boy! It’s so refreshing to hear that you’ll be taking some (much needed) time with him.
I’m sharing a recipe for Sauteed Balsamic Kale today. It has only 4 allergy-friendly ingredients and super easy!
Thanks for hosting!

I forgot that I had already posted a recipe last night and shared another (that’s what you get for doing things late at night after spending an entire exhausting day with a toddler!)
Shared my grain-free breakfast pizza tart. Bacon and gruyere are a pregnant ladies best friend in my opinion!

@Tessa Domestic Diva, In the guidelines it does state that give-aways aren’t allowed – it is because I want to make sure that SIT posts are a resource for readers. Sorry!!!

Amy

Thank you for hosting this! All these recipes look wonderful and giving me lots of idea. The recipe I shared was for something I just kind of threw together and my kids loved. It is Chicken with a creamy tomato wine sauce.
