Thank you for stopping by Slightly Indulgent Tuesday! Last week we had over 115 healthier recipes. It was so much fun browsing through your dishes.
Last Week’s Healthier Highlights
My Picks
- Black Bean Pizza Crust from Gluten-Free Gidget – I love this! It’s got all the great phytonutrients from beans and still eats like a pizza. Yum!
- Chopped Kale Salad with Raspberry Mandarin Dressing from Fresh4Five – I got hooked on kale salad while I was pregnant.
- Raw Brownies with Chocolate Hemp-Seed Butter from Vegan Mommy Chef – Such a yummy brownie and a cute little girl!
- Creamy Coconut Rice Pudding with Date Compote from My Darling Lemon Thyme – gorgeous pics!
Reader Favs
- Avocado Vanilla Cheesecake from Sweetly Raw
- Cocoa Butter Cupcakes from Real Food Forager
- Cinnamon Swirl Scones from Daily Bites
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 sharing.

There are so many interesting links this week!
I shared my recipe for Blueberry Cornmeal Pancakes. This recipe is gluten free, but it can be made with “regular” flour if you don’t have issues with gluten.
I also made this recipe with nitrite and nitrate free bacon from Trader Joe’s in place of the blueberries- yum!
Thanks for hosting!

Hi Amy! I shared a recipe for chicken noodle soup that is gluten free. We called it “Black Bean and Chicken Tamale Soup” because the masa harina noodles reminded us of tamales.
Thank you for hosting this link-up! I have friends who need gluten recipes and sharing your blog with them has been a blessing.

Hi, thank you for hosting! I’m sharing my no-can scratch marinara recipe. Being a cycling and running household we eat a ton of pasta. I was tired of buying jar sauce with mystery ingredients and dismayed when I couldn’t find a scratch recipe that didn’t contain canned tomato something. So, I made my own! This is #1 in my series – roma tomato, roasted red pepper & basil. Enjoy! (#77)

Hi Amy! How’s the baby? They grow so fast don’t they? I shared my Skinny GF Low Glycemic Chocolate Chip cookies this week. I’m crazy about cookies but the fat and sugar has always been tough to cut out or you end up with either a flat cookie or a scone. After lots of trial and error these are pretty close to the original “Toll House” that I love, hope your readers like them too. Have a wonderful week!! hugs xx Ali the Skinny GF Chef

@Ali Williams, Yes, he is growing faster than I’m ready for. Almost 12 pounds and I wasn’t ready for him to get to 10 pounds. Excited to see your recipe. I know what you mean about low fat, low sugar cookies. I figured out a great recipe that’s in my book but I want to compare notes.

@Amy, I would love to hear how they compare! We should do a cookie swap and taste test. Wouldn’t that be fun? So sweet of you to answer everyone’s messages Amy. See you next week! hugs, Ali
